I’m still hopelessly devoted, don’t worry about it.

I simply can’t process this flagrant per-FUCKING-fection

[jemenlaidis]

my life after watching this video > my life before watching this video

You know I love to hear Julien speak English and this video of him announcing his Tokyo show in French and English does not disappoint. I feel like a lot of French people I’ve spoken with speak English super well (way, WAY better than I speak French--like, to an embarrassing degree) and with a surprisingly minimal accent, but Julien sounds VERY stereotypically French in the MOST adorable way: “ze May eighteen,” “I’m very ‘appy to see you,” etc.

Also I love how he leaps out of frame and clatters to the floor for absolutely NO reason (except maybe to communicate that he does his own stunts?).

Hola tout le monde

I, a crazy person, did something that is truly fucking insane: I bought a ticket for Julien’s show in Montreal (which also necessitated buying plane tickets and booking a hotel and the whole nine, and the expen$e of all this is the thing about it that is most insane for me, a poor person) on June 10th (I looked at a list of dates on his twitter a few minutes ago and FLIPPED MY SHIT because he has the Montreal date listed there as the 11th but I am reassured by the fact that the Francofolies de Montréal website lists zero shows as being on June 11th, my ticket is for June 10th, and also Julien retweeted the show announcement that the Francofolies tweeted which gave the date as June 10th and yes I am an EXTREMELY ANXIOUS PERSON, as I have demonstrated here to you in this very lengthy parenthetical aside!!!).

I am trying not to hyperventilate and give in to the feeling of BUYER’S REMORSE about spending.........a fretfully LARGE number of dollar$$$ on this very short trip that I, a person who does not live anywhere near Montreal, will be taking at great personal expense to spend maybe an hour (?) watching my fave perform a show that will probably be a stripped-down version of the normal performance he puts on. And I will probably have to speak French to people, which I am.....NOT great at. And my flights are all bonkers (so many weird connecting flights and layovers and such) which is STRESSFUL and oh god i am making myself feel sick just typing all this out...

So here is what I am going to tell myself: This will be fun! It’s gonna be fine! It will be an adventure! It will not seem nutty to spend this much because the show’s gonna be fantastic! All the transportation involved will go smoothly enough that I should not worry about it!!! It’s fine that I am frivolously spending money on travel & entertainment! YOLO! Etc!!!

I’m excited (even though I am trying to tamp down my anxiety!)!!!!!!!!

So, to review:

I am

a) a crazy person

b) a poor person

c) an EXTREMELY ANXIOUS PERSON

d) a person who does not live anywhere near Montreal

e) all of the above

[ANSWER: e]

{So, yeah, this is just a little addendum to say...I’m still in it even though I never post here anymore! <3 }

I spotted this photo on Baptiste Homo’s instagram (@tiste_cool) and I really love it...dude puts a lot of film photos on his insta, which is rad as hell (see my other tumblr that I haven’t updated in over a year on which I (used to...) post my film photography).

“No, I did not mean ‘julian doré,’ you dumb motherfucker!” she yelled at youtube at 6:15 am, exactly like any normal person would.

This was my most-listened-to jam of 2016* on Spotify so, don’t worry, I have not changed even though I never post to this blog anymore

*this jam was released in LATE 2016, if you recall, which may indicate just how obsessively I played it

Cutest couple

[jemenlaidis]

is this ridiculously beautiful man wearing subtle, expertly-applied highlighter or is he just naturally luminous? either way I am so jealous I am SICK about it.

[jemenlaidis]

np on an endless loop bc it’s perfect for this particularly gorgeous fall day and when JD jumps in with the french verse I’m hit with such a delicious pang of melancholy it’s like unh (I am a ho for sadness, guys)

[jemenlaidis]
