OK HI!! Pasting pieces of my link collection from late December through nowish. I’ve edited them into coherent sections to my best liking, in order to get this issue off my desk/chest! I woke up around 3:30 a.m. Friday morning thinking about my work (again) in a good way. I’m Practicing!
Ok perf. Thanks a mil! ❤️ full relate, I cannot stop laughing at the script writing on this account! The ‘I have no desire to work’ ep served on my fyp and I forwarded it immediately.
January-March continues to be an annually tight month for me, personal context not needed, but my editor consciousness reminded me, I forgot to add this essential to my last list of materials, and the emotion is Reversible
TODAY I LOVE BEING ALIVE (a poem) by Alex Dimitrov
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY POETRY MONTH!
Pome is back for season 6! And the most recently featured poem, Baader-Meinhof by A.K. Blakemore (2018), took my breath away when I read it.
RIP Charles Simic (Six Poems shared on The New Yorker)
Pasting Pugh’s monologue ON the MFING BLOG, post a new annual Little Women (2019) rewatch in Texas winter isolation. "She's soooooooo crazy" and she’s felt everywhere in media after Don’t Worry Darling. Linking her vogue, and looking forward to watching her new movie, A Good Person.
...Baby One More Time, the first studio album, by Britney Spears turned 13 the day before January’s Friday the 13th. I rly intended to wrk this coincidence, but the deadline passed and here we are. It did give me many opportunities to take a break and rewatch this iconic music video. It’s one of many 90s MTV moments I have a core childhood memory of watching for the first time.
Closed Captions read foot tapping, pen tapping…
Unlearning Urgency Culture. (Do you follow this account too?)
This chick is genius.
My thoughts on how and when using the word “genius” most applies.
I can’t wait to see what you [the internet] do with it [the future].
the record^^^ is in my listening queue.
I‘ve been intentionally slow on commenting on this subject, I’ve thought about it, and I’m choosing myself in this Internet divorce. This is the only photo I like of Paul Mescal at this time. Perhaps more commentary after I finally watch Aftersun, whenever there is a free way to stream it.
In the streets, te amo rediscovering a oldie and losing your mind for funzies.
tfw, as a music fan, you just have to double check???? And then squirrel the id away for later, lol respect
“FRED FRED I HOPE TODAY IS THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE” Extremely this energy if I was present at the sold out MSG trio show too. I will not rest until I see Fred smile live when the boys are being sillyheads live 😭 I’ll bring popcorn for Kiernan’s snack time, personally! Gonna clip this receipt right here and hush before the year gets ahead of me, we’ll talk about it later. Culture evolves naturally, and it’s my fun to pay attention. All of this press and on the ground coverage to amplify Skrillex new album Don’t Get Too Close, which I listened to last month forming a new relationship with a new H‑E‑B location, is a genius, heart-forward expression to me. My favorite tracks are the title track featuring Bibi Bourelly, Mixed Signals featuring Swae Lee, and Real Spring featuring Bladee. In closing, Mmmmwhatchasayyyyyy (lol)
Inside Listening. V Outside Listening (why aren’t you dancing?)
This pinkpanthreses mashup made me screeeeech.
A perfect culmination of the TikTok teenage filter x use of the phrase “jump scare”….”I’m in trouble in an addict” rawr;) thinkin about that one night in college when I taught myself Complicated on uke lol
Eyeballing the dreamy dress from Source Unknown, thanks to this unreal dreamlike sequence by @naraazizasmith

Nevertheless, nous slayons!!!!!!!!
For some reason, the physical sticky note I wrote says “Amelia Grey Tomb Raider look assignment.”…That’s all.
“three times a week of course” Audio stuck with me; noting for when I learn how to sample
A daily affirmation by Julia Fox on why “not being liked” is actually a compliment! There is a deep well of reasons why I will choose the Julia Fox Strong Femme and Media Mix toolbox over and over again.
Blew my mind to learn that these giant microwaves for clothes exist?
Crystal, @beerbottles_chainsaws, who I know Mastered styling double-button-down shirts last fall, springing to mind as I walked up past the SoCo storefront and felt inner outrage toward Madewell for styling the same idea, but ya basics here.
In this weird in-between season, all I can think about in the morning is layering like I rolled out of a cloud, slipped on my favorite jeans, with ballet flats, my headphones, to-go. Or as Vivian (@vivian.yrl) said, “i wanna be as peaceful as jellybean sleeping on the couch everyday for 20 hours”
One (1) heads will roll americano, HOT pls
If the timing is right, take me for a slow pancake. Craving a pancake. I would be so devoted, probably silent the first quarter of eating it, syrup soaked. I like to mix sunny yolky eggs and crisp bacon in my pancake and syrup mix. I eat the egg whites first. For some reason. Since post-dance competition IHOP.
I *want* to be easy wearing this green Simon Miller set I kept getting Instagram Ads for, to be worn year round based on location and time of day, as set and separate potential
Courrèges ribbed-knit ribbed tank-top, too, which I’d style identical to how the model is wearing: nude, barely there heeled shoe, straight leg black pants, the tank, a clean neckline. No way in hell I’ll own this one for cost, but I can find it!
Energy Matched: TOP TIKTOK DUPES! On using “a big girl tool like the elites”!!!
On Advertising Elites: SKIMS hiring Mia and Lucia for the Valentine’s Day campaign = chef’s kiss
Megadeth tee on Aubrey Plaza for SNL “goodnights”, full makeout (I did not watch the episode)
On Valentine’s Day: @samyoukilis “thinking of this couple today 🌹”
Plus, This love
I’ll unpack why Valentine’s Day continues to be a personal favorite another year!
Until then, Why cuddling is good for us!

Also: how to do Discord (Dirt) This seems like the next best option right now for the Internet climate I like and look for, I’ll report back on this.
On the first Friday of this last NYFW, @phoebephilo joined Instagram!
Highlighting Rodarte’s goth FW 23/24, no notes, *ghostblink*
PRADA MENS FW23 SHOW: Reporting Live from the studio floor, my attn is SHEER and Quality Color Collar Combos, Nipples, and Hydration via Briefcase.
V thoughtful after watching @ellaemhoff’s OOTD videos. (Editor’s Note: I’m still peacefully taking a break from political commentary/media for my mental health, but I read and pay attention.)
Adding my pick Chat Pile hoodie to my cart. Want this for my lifelong dry dead winters in the south, usually visiting home in OKC once or twice and cold af; I need a second black hoodie to wear when my KG is dirty.
ciao prada! (Kendall not even trying to give a single sec of charisma this clip irks me. If you’re lucky enough to be in this special place multiple times in your life, you also have to learn to act as if you can respect the girlies who would kill just to be in the show room. At the very least you could’ve added a little flare to your enunciation, but I will not digress into the spiciness level of her drama this week.) Prada and Sharpie notes TKTKTKTK!
Reading The Cut’s The New Rules! I loved watching this article make Internet waves. I specifically noted liking #59, 78, 94, 139, and the line about penetrating / paying.
The Year I Ate New York by E. Alex Jung, and Inspired! for Austin summer by The New York Happy Meal.
*has one sip of martini* and eats it
Reading “Deinfluencing”, the end of Pop Up Magazine, buzzfeed trying a pink Razr for a week, Malcolm on the stand (N+1)
Can’t allow myself to buy the 8-pack of minis from HEB, so considering one Croissant order.
Still thinking a lot about Justice for Tortuguita, and ongoing Defend the Atlanta Forest information (which I find here, @defendatlantaforest)
I’ve been letting it Linger. Going to log off to stretch it out in my own way because I cannot physically do this? fitness? Test. Pls lmk if you try this at home!
Dangling a Drip Drop Phone charm carrot in front of my eyes for next personal deadlines.
Wish I was here tonight (last night)! Spiraling hotter into the center of my/the universe's core. I originally drafted I was “now determined to have her voice exorcise me live.”
With care,
