What are men good for? Singing, apparently!
I’ve always been partial to women’s voices- Lilith Fair was my first live music experience, which tells you all you need to know about why I’m this way- but the boys are feeling feelings this summer and I’m okay with that!Ā 
Role Model, MJ Lenderman, Cameron Winter (plus Experience, a new album from my husband, Attawalpa) have been the soundtrack to writing, swimming and riding to work across the George Washington Bridge.Ā 
If I ever have a son, I hope we writes a song called ā€œMama On The GW Bridge.ā€

so this is overlapping with part 3 cuz im adding so much new music-
ā€œif someone’s gonna love youā€ by Operelly i got this song off of here! i love this app! and i love this song! soft indie folk like this is amazing. it’s so soothing and intimate and sad all at the same time
-For Your SinsĀ by Dea Matrona this whole album is literally my taste in music. it is everything i need in my life. it’s if feminism was a music genre.Ā  my favorites are ā€œSo Damn Dangerousā€, ā€œGlory Glory (I am Free)ā€, and ā€œDid Nobody Ever Love You?ā€
-BirdieĀ by Slaughter Beach, Dog this is peak indie music. just some guys in a basement with a low budget and acoustic guitar singing about love and life. my favorites off the album are ā€œAcolyteā€ and ā€œGold and Greenā€Ā Ā 
-ā€œmary poppinsā€ by bbno$ yeah this song is… something else. bbno$ is my favorite rapper and i love the parody rap and how unserious he is.Ā 
-ā€œgirlsā€ by girl in red happy pride month, bitches!!!Ā  for this pride month, i’m giving up men. bc they suck (this is pan erasure and i will not stand for it but it’s ok bc im erasing myself) (that does not make any sense) but im obsessed with this song even tho i have a crush on a man and it’s killing me- i love women, but the women don’t love me back 😭😭

can we normalize not knowing genres or the nitty gritty of why you like a song and accept that some people just like it based on vibes? (it’s me. i’m some people)
-ā€œFrom The Startā€ by Good Kid covers often are hit or miss, but this is an absolute banger. somehow combining the jazz of the orginal Laufey tune with indie rock is everything anyone could possibly need and more. plus the indie rock makes the heartthrob of the lyrics hit so much harder. the delivery of the lyrics is just šŸ‘Œ it’s just the perfect song to belt out and i love it so much
-ā€œSaturday Sunā€ by Vance Joy indie folk!!! highly recommend!!! this shit is amazing!! the good vibes and the hope this song brings is just it.Ā  something something being in love and being happy. this song is just great
-ā€œAbout A Girlā€ by Nirvana I really like grunge rock apparently. depressing grunge rock. and this is depressing as shit. just- it- yeah i don’t even know what to say about this song. it’s great and sad and- yeah yay! unhealthy relationships! (ahhhhhh)
-ā€œSilver Springsā€ by Fleetwood Mac i already posted aboutĀ Rumours, but this is my favorite off the album, and it’s not even actually on the original album. passing this over for ā€œI Don’t Want To Knowā€ was certainly a choice, but i wasn’t alive in 1977 so what do i care? (i love both songs) in terms of the actual song, i don’t have a marriage that’s coming to a tulmoltuous end, but the feminine rage emitted from this song is everything. if you ain’t singing your heart out in the second half, you’re doing it wrong.

i’m discovering so many new songs recently it’s insane-
-ā€œShe (Rent Free)ā€ by Gabe Rivera this song lives in my head rent free.Ā  Gabe’s an acquaintance of mine and holy shit is his guitar playing and just overall music production skill so good. he’s got a few songs out now and this one sticks out to me cuz i too have someone living in my head rent free and overall it’s just amazing if you like indie rock, go check him out! Gabe Rivera on all platforms!
-ā€œBrass Monkeyā€ by Beastie Boys i love how unserious the Beastie Boys are. their music is always so amazing. i randomly remembered this song existed one morning and rolled up to school blasting it-Ā 
-ā€œJust a Girlā€ by No Doubt i am just a girl :)
-ā€œStanding Byā€ by Homestyle Dinner Rolls i’ve been following them on Instagram for a while and just now decided to actually listen to their music. this one is such a heartthrob (my favorite kind of music)Ā 
-ā€œOpheliaā€ by The Lumineers this song has been on repeat for the last like 5 hours. i have an unhealthy obsession with it.Ā  there’s something about this song that is just so addicting. i don’t know what it is but i fucking love it

It’s not that easy. It takes work. And it’s a power you must not abuse. But if you can give a fuck about the right things- your loved ones, your passions, the needs of an ailing world- and not about the wrong ones- OPP aka other people’s perceptions- you are freed from a certain sort of tyranny and your life force will be tripled. Most people have inherited judgements about the world that even they don’t understand, so why should you? You’re stronger, smarter and chicer than that! And you’ll be shocked by how much of what you thought would always be your reality can be shifted using the renewed energy that comes from DGAF.Ā 
Since life is not linear, sometimes you’ll think you’ve nailed not giving a fuck and then something anxiety inducing or unkind or even mundane but alarming will happen and you SUDDENLY really really do give a fuck. That’s okay. But returning to a baseline level of DGAF is a good goal, so keep your eye on the prize.Ā 
Actually, fuck it- who needs a prize anyway?

Last time I recommended kittens. I still recommend kittens. But I’ve expanded my roster and wow, pigs are amazing. They’re not easy pets- they require a lot of focus, patience and gentle discipline- but they are so fucking smart and they have wonderful senses of humor. Victor, my boy, has a passion for unplugging lamps and yanking them off the table, then running away laughing. It’s not a bit that would work for everyone- he’s sort of an Andy Kaufman absurdist- but I think he’s hilarious.
If you are thinking you might also want a pig, Autumn Whitaker is the woman to explain their inner lives: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGue5Kp5AwOXkReCGPUyImA
There are a lot of incredible pigs who need parents at pig icon Susan Magidson’s Ross Mill Farm: https://rossmillfarm.com/
This is Victor and Cherry:

I know this is a true luxury, but liking your sibling- not just loving them but genuinely thinking they’re the absolute shit- is a real short cut to well being. My brother Cyrus is straight up the funniest, smartest and most supportive person in the entire world. He delights me. Being around him- heck, just knowing he exists- is what I imagine being on a really powerful sports team is like. You win together, and even when you lose you know there’s someone who is in it with you, ready to train hard and rise again. He’s also an incredible writer https://www.booksoup.com/book/9780316444972 who is currently finishing his PHD thesis, so that’s a great shortcut for having something compelling to say at a party.Ā 
This is a picture of us during lunch break on the set of the movie I’m directing (he’s doing a little role in it, because he’s low key a great actor) just gabbing our heads off like we’re still kids at our grandma’s house on Christmakkuh.
