Not in a creepy way.
I love looking at what they’ve got sat in their windowsill, and imagining the kind of person that stuff would belong to. Picturing the layout, and wondering if I’ll ever live somewhere similar, and whether they like it or not. I often find myself getting carried away trying to envision myself living in that place, in that location, even going as far as to imagine a career and social circles and a morning routine for myself, only to be jolted back to reality when I see the sillouhette of the inhabitant, the vague and shadowy suggestion of a real life person rather than some sort of self-insert. If I’m caught staring, I try to give them a look that says “you’d really benefit from investing in a pair of curtains,”.

Multiple reasons to visit NGA, but the free screenings are among the top for me. Thought provoking programming that is usually tied in some way to ongoing exhibitions. I don’t watch trailers so I love to go in there without any expectations. Shout out to the lush red velvet seating - so cozy.

really the rec is for whatever local video store is in ur area (nyc people sound off i guess). ANYWHOOO i've been a member for minute now and the catalogue is so much larger than any streaming site and i get to go talk to the lovely staff and we exchange our love for the different movies we're watching, akin to the library/local bookstore. the digital ephemera lacks that human touch.

Video someone you love whilst they talk. Record the sound of the birds singing at your grandparents’ house, the sound of traffic in the distance. Write about literally anything, or even just make notes of what you think. Make shitty art, whether it’s poetry or painting or music. One day, you’ll be glad that you have more than just photos to remember your life by; there’ll be evidence you lived.
