if you want to know anything about me as a person, listen to david bowie. i bought ziggy stardust at the mall when i was fourteen, and i haven't stopped playing his records since. he taught me that it's okay to be weird, that being dramatic is sometimes the best way to be honest, that doing something new is its own reward even when it doesn't turn out the way you'd hoped. listening to bowie while living in berlin made not only the city itself, but the entire trajectory of my life that had led me to that point, make sense. i never once considered the possibility that he'd ever die. i’m not sure what the world looks like, without him in it.
