I'm intolerant to intolerance and also to lactose.
I like a lot of things, and I paint them.

There's a huge similarity between the Mexico city low class slang and cockney.

So please linguist people, give me some research.

This is the season where I ask myself,

Do I need a divorce or just vitamin D?

In Amsterdam I've got to meet people from a lot of places and I noticed that Russians are super apologetic about the war in Ukraine (they even use the proper word of "invasion"), but Israeli people run away from the subject and try not to talk about Palestine or pretend that nothing has happened.

I'm living the millenial dream: I bought myself the boots I wanted when I was a teenager and the special foam soles I fit perfectly.

I'm loving PLURIBUS, it's amazing television. It's really really good.

And I got a new gig friend, and he'll probably won't be as close as my British friend, but he has saved me a couple of times from getting trampled under a wave of tall metal heads.

Our friendship is based on not getting ourselves squashed and talking about our families.

Like my friend who took her British alternative, queer, punk, post-punk, 50 year old partner to listen to regional Mexican music, a show packed with cowboys.

And then she got upset he preferred to stay in the back.

Like, dude.

Of course I don't force my partner to go with me to gigs.
He prefers some soft sad folky music, I'm not going to take him to see rrriot girls.

We both have our tastes and individual lives, there's no reason to be glued to each other.

I went through a terrible heartbreak.
Since I moved to Amsterdam I struggled to find friends my age with the same artsy + dark + punk taste.
After a couple of years I found a friend and we became REALLY close.
Then she married and moved back to the UK.
Now I'm back to feeling disconnected.

I love big thick throbbing books.

I don't understand why everything I say sounds like I'm complaining, like I'm upset.

Even compliments to people sound like I'm angry.

Am I becoming a bitter person?

I just feel unhappy sometimes.

I have a low key disdain for people who don't have hobbies.

People keep telling me how to optimise my art to be more productive.

My emotions are not productive, that's the point.

This is me, speaking four languages:

"emmmmmm.... Uhh... What's the word...."

I'm going to Bob Vylan because I'm not so into rap even though I like their punk songs and British accent, but I will fucking defend them playing at Paradiso, Glastonbury, or whatever venue they want.

Political art is the thing always pushing for change.

I'm happy with myself from the past who booked a lot of concerts, shows, and parades.

Now that my income is not so stable after I quitted, I don't have to worry about it because I got everything paid for, just for me to enjoy.

Onacceptabel dat Paradiso wordt geïntimideerd vanwege het programmeren van artiesten. Steeds vaker zie ik oproepen om artiesten te cancelen om hun politieke opvattingen of herkomst. In onze rechtsstaat is er maar 1 grens en dat is de wet. Tot die tijd: handen af! van kunstenaars.

And it's funny, the "evil" companies I've worked for, the ones helping the rich get richer, are the ones that are the nicest to work for, their work environment is really really good for their employees.
And then you get no profits or companies helping with inequality and they treat you like shit.

I quitted my job because I was getting weirdly micromanaged and there was a lot of conflict. I got reprimanded three times in the span of a month and a half.
I got two interviews for two companies last week, but I'm getting the vertigo of taking such a decision without something to hold on to.
July 11, 2025 at 6:16 PM
And it was worse that I was trying to befriend a guy who started to mansplain me my own art, telling me it was repetitive and if I do something else I would be super rich and would sell a lot of things.

That's not the goal, and he just managed to push me away.

It has been really hard to make men friends.
My partner has a lot of women friends, and me, the feminist, wants to have more male friendships.

And then every guy I try to befriend turns out conservative, or techbro, or mansplainer.

I feel bad for the single hetero girls out there.

I told my family that I'd watch whatever they wanted, expecting to watch Amelie or Pan's labyrinth and now I'm stuck watching despicable me 3

So yesterday at my kickboxing gym a guy showed up looking exactly like Andrew Tate. Short, bald, beard, grey pants.

My friend had a bad day so he started picking a fight with the guy.

But the other was quite polite, I guess he was just unlucky enough to end up looking like Tate.

Damn, I posted that? That was really insightful of me.
