I think this song gets a bad rap. Sure, it was overplayed, and probably got way bigger than it should of. But that style of indie pop has such potential to be clean, highly danceable, catchy bliss. Taking notes from Neon Trees for next Frost projectā¦

Made a WhatsApp group with all my film friends in it and have been using it coordinate going to screenings. It's so much fun! There's loads of little independent screenings happening where I live and some very good independent cinemas, but even if all you have is a TV you should start a film club too. This evening I'm off to an old pub that's been converted into an events space to watch The Garden by Derek Jarman š

Pretty sick, went with a friend and it was very funny. $14 Movie Theater IPAs were hitting in a fantastic way. Then we went to see the second half of the Knicks game in some dive in the Village. It was a great time, stumbled on the escalator in front of strangers.

I watched the sunrise every morning this past week in Mexico. When I looked to my left and right, everyone was taking photos of it. Iām very anti āPut your phone away and enjoy the showā vibes, I think thatās pretentious and naive. BUT: when itās something as simple and common as a sunrise, the effect actually IS better if you just let it all in IRL. Because you probably will never look at that photo again. If you can google image search something, why would you need an image of it?

As a Trans, I believe in Ariel Pink's gender dysphoria. This song technically came out right at the end of 2023. I heard it while on a run early in the morning in Setagaya City, Tokyo. In the track, Pink sings, "When I was born, something went wrong. They told me I was lucky-- I came this close to being a girl. But IĀ wantĀ to be a girl." I absolutely believe his dysphoric yearnings, and detect no sign of post-woke edgelordism. I think it's probably very common, yet hardly documented, when men feel like they want to be a girl, ultimately deciding to remain with their birth gender. In fact, I think this sentiment is rather trans-affirming. As one male friend of mine said of his COVID-era gender experience: "I couldn't decide if IĀ wantedĀ 'Her', or wanted toĀ be 'Her.'" It's a brave stance to portray in a song, one that edges on Macklemore's "When I was in the 3rd grade, I thought that I was gay", but with all the heart and none of the corny virtue signaling. AndĀ it's wayyyy too catchy.Ā
