Bro, this is the peak of western civilization music. Where is the mature/adult, sporting a brown leather jacket in coffee bar smoking a cigarette music for millennials? Savage Garden is my favorite band, and the greatest of all time and the song āInner Smileā by Texas makes me feel like Iām feeling and seeing the beauty of this Earth all at once, one day listening to it is going to make me explode.

This album is iconic, they had such range!! They could do pop, they could do ballads, they could do weird. 10/10

God damn we love some 2000s pop rnb. Sound like Justin timberlake popped out a time machine & bitch slapped me with nostalgia. Put this back in the clubs man, I'm stuck cutting it up in my living room.

I donāt think pop music has historically ever had a moment like her āGirl, So Confusingā remix verse. Itās not a joke. Itās a triumph for literature. Everyone remembers where they were the first time they heard it. This was a serious revolution and took us out of her usual fever dreaminess of controlled poetic syntax (which I love) , to just unmasked, raw, chaotic feminine brutality and I donāt think we appreciate the prose switch-up enough. I also have said āletās work it out on the remix?ā to many people Iāve fought with since the song dropped. Sometimes I even write a verse mimicking the song taking accountability of what Iāve done and I send it to who Iām in a conflict with, it actually helps! Iām obsessed with the new singles off her upcoming album Virgin and Iām already studying the cadence of epigrams like āMDMA in the back gardenā,. Iām someone who struggles with severe summer depression, which is taboo in the world of seasonal sadists but taking my discman for a walk by the ocean as āThe Pathā starts up on my (files purchased on ITunes!) burnt CD-R copy of āSolar Powerā is natureās SSRI. Suck on that, Saint Johnās Wort.

I write in fragments, and Iām constantly jotting down ideas all day long and what has been great is turning a Blackberry Bold into an offline word processor. I use the built in software and export my writing into a .docx and then put it on my computer via USB. Then I plug my notes into Scrivener.Ā Ā Iām a huge nerd about collecting offline-writing tech (shout out to Freewrite!) and it makes the rush of putting together a novel which I call the āincubation processā, a lot for more chaotic and fun.Ā Ā I consider writing to be like a scavenger hunt with your own brain and I feel like if you see your mind as a search engine, you can pull up a lot of insane ideas by just trusting your inner web browser.Ā

The reason I got a region free DVD player in my mid 20s was because I wanted to own a European copy of the Leonardo Dicaprio Gen X deep-cut/full of lore movie Donās Plum. If you can sometimes save the money, you spend on vaping, events, weed, alcohol, drugs or whatever to buy rare out of print DVDs (even bootlegs sometimes) that are locked to Japan, Australia, UK, whatever isnāt North American. Do it, youāll never regret it. The delayed gratification of waiting weeks for a DVD that is available to stream right now on some scary illegal link that has 300 pop ups to come in the mail may not make sense to a lot of people but I really appreciate the movie more, and having the association of the whole experience of having to track it down vs just getting it right now makes it so fun. I own a lot of rare TV series box sets from the 90s/2000s that never got released in North America, and are impossible to find online. Join me, you can live this lifestyle too!
