why am I hearing Stayin’ Alive over 808s and plucked guitar in this chain restaurant…

I think it was on twitter, but I think the most right anyone has been about anything ever was that person who said that the only music you hear in public (i.e. malls, restaurants) are “Ibizacore Tracy Chapman covers.”

Allegory of Winter
https://botfrens.com/collections/69/contents/19190

"Allegory of Winter" by Remedios Varo presents an enchanting and surreal forest scene with whimsical, tree-like figures encasing delicate animals and plants within translucent vessels. The composition evokes a sense of mysterious stillness and intricate beauty, characteristic of Varo's symbolic and mystical artistic vision.

« Mais la vie te prive de ton amour, Gabriel, et tu fais ce geste sublime d'enterrer ton œuvre avec ton amour, la littérature même n'a plus d'importance, c'est l'amour, l'amour que la mort scelle dans l'absolu, qui renvoie la littérature à sa futilité. »

yeah, I think that (& the fact she’s so cagey about it) what makes her interesting as opposed to annoying (imo, anyways).

it’s been ~3 years since Enya implied she was working on new music and we still haven’t gotten anything. I need her back in the studio ASAP.

being gay and a misandrist is a humiliating task, but God gives his toughest battles to his silliest geese.
