oklou's latest album "choke enough" came out a month ago and my growing emotional attachment to it has been growing each passing day
this entire live performance altered my brain chemistry and i am so enamoured by it.... it makes my soul levitate and comforts me so much....
especially when "blade bird" comes on.... ugh.... so beautiful!!!! the (figure skating) blade is in the bird amen....
the emotional intensity/attachment is probably heightened after michelle trachtenberg's passing and me crying 2 minutes into ice princess after hearing the news.... the live "blade bird" rendition with all the figure skaters reminds me so much of her in the movie and the performance is just so hauntingly beautiful!!!
this also makes me want to get back into ice skating...

Their voices sound so cool together, so emotional and it’s like two different emotional sides to every song cause of the contrast. Anger and rage vs sadness? Idk

you’ve probably seen this already but it still makes me cry , a deeply emotive & dramatic performance (of a simply perfect song) that surprises & really connects across the screen
the way he hits his chest hard enough for the mic to pick up & letterman’s genuine enthusiastic joy at it all bring it home to me 🥲

I think I've bawled my eyes out to every track at this point for different reasons. not even exaggerating. once you think you're done with it you get hit with a brand new emotion and find new symbolism in the lyrics. and another painful feeling to unfurl and free yourself from. if I could get everyone to listen to an album this would be my pick

(specifically behavioural experiment — really putting my psych degree into good use huh?)
i don't know man but this really helps me get unstuck from an all-or-nothing mindset and the insane analysis paralysis from even doing the most menial of tasks
look just set it from a random number of days and put a random thing to focus on and see what happens
i don't even have to stick to it — this isn't even a "serious/legitimate" experiment at all — i give myself the grace to fail at this "experiment" completely and i try to take as much emotional weight from it as possible
the whole of point me doing this in the first place is ripping off the band-aid: any action is good action at this point, i don't want to ruminate anymore and i want to build momentum (even if it seems embarrassingly insignificant)
if it works out: good!! if it doesn't work out: also good!! the whole point of this is trial and error and honestly just bridging the gap between idea and execution and getting rid of friction between tasks as much as possible...
we can always change the hypothesis and the experiment... back to the drawing board we go!!!
