...weird but strangely logical...

Once upon a time I had an amazing blurb all about me in this box...but then I accidentally deleted it and now it's gone. It said something about me, cats, boobs, geeky stuff, and a hula hoop. That should be enough for now.

there is nothing I want more in life than to be a part of this

So in the last week I’ve had a dreams that I became besties with Ricky Wilson from the Kaiser Chiefs (and I got him into trouble with a teacher, obviously), went busking with Tim Roth (WHY THOUGH?), and did a spot of parkour around a hospital with Gentle Jay from Tattoo Fixers. We were awesome, in case you were wondering.

It’s been an odd one, but not wholly unpleasant.

My brain is making some strange choices while I sleep.

I just realized I’ve survived everything I’ve ever encountered in life. I have a 100% survival rate. I’m fucking nailing it.

It’s very easy to give in to being famous. Because it’s charming. It’s powerful. It draws you in. Really, it’s harder work resisting it. But after a while I just refused to accept a life that was not real. [What seemed unreal about it?] Like, becoming OK with having things done for you. Or – no – expecting things to be done for you. I’ve had a few moments like that. And it frightened me. I think it was something simple like running out of clean clothes. And me not having the initiative to wash my own clothes. I was annoyed that my clothes weren’t clean. [When was this?] Peak-y. Around the time of 21, when I was on top of the mountain. So I told myself I’d better abseil down. And go and do my fucking laundry.

chewbacca is honestly such a good audience proxy because i, too, love han solo a lot, worry about C-3PO’s safety, want to hug luke skywalker, and scream uncontrollably at every distressing event

im serious about that “stop saving things for special occasions” bit tho like. even if u aren’t in your 20s. thats for everyone. its one of the most useful things ive learned lately

stop! just stop. eat the special snack. drink the expensive hippie tea. use the incense or the bath bomb or whatever you paid way too much for because you were feeling really bad and retail therapy makes u feel alive

when we save things for special occasions/rainy days it contributes to us feeling like A.) our day to day existence is lackluster and B.) you have to be feeling a certain level of Bad, or have to reach a certain level of Socially Accepted Achievement, to enjoy things

just give yourself stuff. there are definitely sometimes reasons to withhold things from yourself - as motivation, if it’s something you consciously want to use sparingly, etc - but at least for me half the time it just turns into self-flagellation and also cool things and cool experiences and nice treats just collect dust while i wait for some fabled day when i convince myself i finally Deserve it

just fuckin give yourself stuff dude. life’s so mindblowingly short

my grandmother died having only used her china like twice in her life. during the year or so before her death, she was starting to package up and give things of hers to her kids, and gave mom the china while sighing “oh i wish i had used the china more!” and mom tried so hard to convince her to just keep it, then, and eat corny dogs off it if she wanted. she insisted she couldn’t possibly, you need a special reason to use the fine china. when nana died, we used her fine china as our everyday dishes for years. i was 18 when she died, and never really stopped having that in the back of my head. now, when i hear myself say “i wish i had a reason to wear/do/eat/use X!” i hear nana regretting never really using her china. and let me tell you a thing: spaghettios taste great when eaten from fine china.

Is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?

i love how the old jedi order spent three whole movies saying that once someone has embraced the dark side there’s no chance they can be redeemed, but luke skywalker looked at the man who chopped off his hand, participated in the torture of his twin sister and best friend, and pursued him and his friends across the galaxy with the intent to kill them and said “yeah i can fix this” and then he fucking did

Everyone likes to talk about how staid and archetypal Star Wars is. And it is. Sort of. It lives in those archetypes and understands them but them allows its characters to ignore them when it suits them or when its interesting to do so. The wise and noble Jedi are fallible and cowardly. The slick, suave cowboy is really more of an awkward screwball, the damsel in distress/love interest is also a major leadership figure in the rebellion who knows her way around a blaster  and doesn’t take shit. The prophecy was either complete bullshit or totally correct … from two different certain points of view. It goes on like that. And I’d say that you can do that with most stories, and you can, except that it seems to be so consistent and intentional in Star Wars. It’s a film that’s designed to look like the perfect hero narrative from a distance and in retrospect … but that’s much more alive while you’re watching it. That comes alive in little ways.

It’s not a timeless universal archetypal relic … that’s just it’s chosen aesthetic.

this is straight up one of the best things that’s ever been added to this post
