red plenty by francis spufford

ok it took me two months to finish it but this book is genuinely unlike anything else i’ve read. it’s a fairytale about the planned economy! it’s somehow both an empathetic work of fiction and an in-depth examination of an era and its ideology. plus the sentences are so intensely rich and beautiful. anyway its not for everyone but it was really for me.

Daring yourself to do things that are good for you

Dared myself to go to the dentist… and I went. Turns out it’s never worse than the fear we surround it with 🤷

cherish the warmth of your bed

Not from a place of dreading the day but from a position of gratitude and warmth. The love and comfort felt can carry on with you throughout your day, just invite it along for the ride.

Grip Your Fist, I'm Heaven Bound

whispers of Midwest emo with a dash of math rock? This album took me on a drive past melancholy into the fields of nostalgia… the soundtrack to a conversation with a past self.
