an open love letter (pt. 7)
I’ve started doing this thing where I direct all my misplaced anger at you. Probably because you’re not here to defend yourself. Maybe because you wouldn’t even if you were. I want to hate you so bad. And I want to hate every single girl who’s ever managed to get your attention ahead of me. Most especially the ones I know. Because they are so fake and shallow and cheap and...

You're so comfortable talking about sex and...
Not exactly a question, but…for the most part, yes. I have a problem with the way we’re taught to believe sex is such a bad, dirty thing. I don’t think it is. I think it’s a wonderful, beautiful thing. But society and religion and social taboos have scared people so much that they think it’s somehow awkward or immoral to have sex or even talk about it.
The fact is,...

you know I’m in love with this song. So far, I’ve heard a lot of people butcher it, and a few people kill it. Weirdly, I like Anthony Green’s version better than Bjork’s. I will say this: this girl, Chelsea David is amazing and has a great voice. I love it.
: It's Simple →
It’s Simple I am not summer not a nightingale, singing— I might be a chorus some of the time but I have my moments, like all where the bird dies inside the ribcage.
I am not marble not a statue, adorned, adored— I am more like a weatherworn maidenhead howling at the wind. I have barnacles,
rotten, in places, have parts of me that no one
would want to touch. I am overcast with breaks of light...

I don’t wear weave because my hair is already REALLY thick and that ish gets HOT. Also, because I don’t ever want to look anything like this.

In what ways have you come to understand love,...
I have come to understand that truly loving someone isn’t necessarily about them loving you back. It’s about being willing to give love unabashedly and with no concern for fears of what may happen. It’s giving up your heart, wholly and being willing to sacrifice your heart for someone else. At the root of it, to my understanding, love really is about learning to see an imperfect...

You seem pretty optimistic. How is not being with...
It breaks my heart every day, but I know I can’t love for both of us. I wouldn’t want to. It’s too much to ask. I am optimistic, in general, though. I’ve kind of had to grow a lot in a relatively short amount of time. I realized I don’t have the time to let the way other people feel about me dictate the way I feel about myself OR the way I live my life. I’ve got...

The Dead Weather Drop 2 New Videos
twentyfourbit:
Earlier in the week, the official Dead Weather YouTube channel awoke from its 4-week slumber with a new music video featuring Los Angeles artist Max Neutra live-painting frontwoman Alison Mosshart in Third Man Records’ signature colors (yellow, white, black) to the tune of Jack White and co.’s new single “Gasoline” (one of my favorite songs of the year so far). It’s a fun clip,...

on summer nights
Lately, everything has been extra inspiring to me. I don’t know what it is, exactly. I just feel…refreshed. Nothing has really changed. I’m still just as busy as I always am. I am still working on various jobs, projects, ideas— as ever. Never a moment’s rest, as usual. I love it, as usual. But there is something…else.
More than a renewed sense of energy, just....
