Late night office post

 It's 19:58 in venice, CA and as I logged on to X.com for hopefully the last time ever in my life, I was met with such a amalgum of pus, sex, and the most absurdist post-anything-and-everything marketing I've ever seen. I recoiled. I hadn't been on the site in months (?) and just one dip back in the pool made me sick.

It's hard some days to get up and commute an hour back and forth to work but i realize how thankful I am that I get to talk to real humans every day at work, that I get to go outside and walk around a beautiful, vibrant, sunny neighborhod; we're so quickly fading away to a society that is just a ghost of what at least some of us (well at least me) consider some idea of beauty and into something that just feels like ersatz everything. It doesn't matter if something is irreplacable or nonfungible when you can just sub in something 'good enough' that can be manufactured en masse.

One thing I saw in the X feed was palmer luckey (founder anduril) saying that the thing he regrets most is that he didn't marry his wife sooner. I guess I can see why that is. Maybe I'm just a backwards minded person who can't accept the future, maybe I should just try to think more positively about the wave of slop? Is there some bright side? Or should I focus on the positive things that I know to be the case in old and existing life and just cling on to those in desperation? Scary thoughts but it's halloween after all. o/ 

Trash (orig. 5/20/23)

Every day I wake up and I don't even know what the time is
Even if it matters, I don't even know, 'cause I
Do it all, every day, all the time
Do it all, every day, all the time

 Gucci mane. Does much more need to be said?

I first started listening to gucci in 2016 though actually, so i was really late to the party...but his genius showed through immediately. when he got out of prison in 2016, people were rly hyped, and i got addicted to "everybody looking". nowadays i dont know if it's held up as a beloved project, but at the time it was a pretty triumphant comeback for someone who'd had everything thrown at him. he came back leaner, stronger, and still with fire beats and rhymes.

i ended up going relatively deep on his discography and continuing to follow him, but i think my favorite gucci songs are honestly the ones buried in freestyles ... esp the hood affair mixtapes series. some of my favorites:

Top 10 projects all time. Maybe top 5. The instrumental parts are so amazing, the vocals are perfect, the atmosphere....ugh
