For the longest time I thought Anthony Bourdain and Leonard Cohen were related because they share a lot of similar features. I was very disappointed when I found out they were in fact, not related. Anyways, this song is beautifully haunting and the production is so delectable š¤

Canāt even articulate what this song feels like for me. Itās simultaneously devastating and enlivening. I feel human when i listen/sing/feel this song.

there is something so cool about this unspoken juxtaposition rule in the more psychologically volatile genres, where the lyrics are bleak and anxious, always tapping into darker territory, but the melody remains beautiful and oddly comforting. i have been re-looping lots of carissaās wierd - songs about leaving lately, and now this thought refuses to leave me alone. idk!!!! itās just such a common case where something viscerally crushing happens to produce the most tender and fragile sounds, and i know it is a bit of a cornplate-level observation, but i have been pondering a lot about this

found myself slightly malnourished, annoyed, in my luteal phase and wanting to die in the same way dramatic tumblrized tweenagers āwant to dieā this morning. regrettably/embarassingly moped around the house like this for hours until i finally decided to put down my phone and put on good old lenny cohen - sitting on my couch & listening to so long marianne felt like returning to church as a previous non-believer. very Steven Yeun in that one beef scene. Yes I cried. Yes I loved. music is so wow ā¤ļø

an idealistic, yet highly inefficient form of face washing from a bygone era.

I adore finding a random video from like 2005 and reading through the comments the way a historian would examine an old manuscript from the 1700s. Are these people still active YouTube users? Or are they forgotten accounts? What did @jjlwis mean by "awww im gonna miss rob too!!!" ? Who even is Rob?? Anthropology in the digital age... so many questions... it's fascinating.
The important thing for me is not to add new comments. I feel like I'm disturbing an old archeological dig site and my sticky modern commentary will make the video crumble away into oblivion. More importantly, I don't want the algorithm to suggest the video to a bunch of people who will spam the comments sectionā major yuck š¤¢

š«with social media being this pervasive entity that has weeded its way into our daily routines for the past 20ish years (plus a global pandemic that really solidified those habits), many young adults today have spent a large amount of their lives living online. it has become the new norm and iām not gonna pretend iām above any of this because itās so easy to fall into it (i am literally writing this rec on my phone whilst itās a perfectly sunny day that i should probably go out to enjoy).
with that being said, in the larger scheme of life, being in your 20s is still in a weird way the beginning stages of your life. itās a period to try new things, make mistakes, learn from them and develop an identity thatās independent from the environment and people who raised you. though you can learn to do some of those things online, they donāt hold a candle to actually experiencing those things for yourself in real life.
all in all, the best way to not sleep thru your 20s is to prioritize in-person experiences that allow you to get a better understanding of yourself and your values. whether that be getting your first tattoo, moving to a new city or country, exploring your personal style or taking up hobbies you couldnāt or wouldāve never done as a kid, this is an important formative time to venture out and get a sense of who you truly are.
