I'm not sure of the buzz elsewhere on the internet, but this is a fantastic book by a strange, fantastic artist. Makes me want to dance and fuck. Read rn.

Gender fluid, horny, weird book that makes you feel a lot of things. Not done but it has been engrossing. Also the snippets on the cover are hilarious from Eileen Myles, Michelle Tea, and Maggie Nelson:

It's kind of like if influencer culture took shrooms and then made love with three self help books and a sci-fi novel. The book had an incredibly slow build up, but I didn't find it boring at all, and in fact had a hard time putting it down the deeper in I got. Bottom line, even though it was less 'horror' than I was anticipating, I would recommend this book if you're looking for a surrealist read and a wild story line.
Also I think about this book whenever I get into a hot tub, so thereβs that.

Currently reading a third time because itβs just so yummy. i read it the first time in a day granted I was in rehab. Eve babitz is the fucking goat and forever underrated. OG it girl and tortured artist literally female Ernest Hemingway With a dash of hunter Thompson heaping spoon of Joan didion. Fiction based in reality like a girl moveable feast. I think I like it so much bc the main character is me coded tbh but the way she says so much in so little is insane and itβs hard to believe itβs not written recently bc it feels so vivid

I've been on a real journey lately. You see the person across the room and you know them... and you know they know you... but you know that they aren't going to come over and say hi... do it. Take the plunge. However the approach needs to happen, make contact. Don't wait until you see them at the next networking event and say "hey were you at the taco place the other day?" It's surprisingly empowering and frankly kind of an impressive social maneuver. The reward is giddy and powerful and immediate. It makes me feel like I've broken out of the matrix.

Any degree, any intensity, the world needs to know. If the care is there, u gotta share.

My friend and I happened upon this. Meaning, strive to live your life in a way that makes you feel hot. Dress to feel hot. Talk to feel hot. Do whatever you do, but in a way that makes you feel like you're worthy of the love and adoration and crushes and desire you deserve. This does not mean "sexy" necessarily--hotness is always shifting and has many forms. But reach deep inside and you'll find that your own personal method and mode of hotness can always, and most of the time is, an excellent guide.
