I am obsessed with this album. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_Heroine There are so many gems in the lyrics. They all break my heart. I love the way “I’m kinda tired of being told to throw my hands up in the air, so there” is old and young and something about her voice, her voice, her voice. I can’t… Continue reading i live in a hologram with you
silent frisco at ocean beach 9/29/13
Have you been to a silent disco? I highly, highly recommend it. It’s surreal when you take off your headphones and see everyone jamming out to the sound of silence, or to waves crashing. Here’s a neat writeup of the concept (and its history, and a bit about how he got there) by one of… Continue reading silent frisco at ocean beach 9/29/13

Even though I’d lived in Berkeley for like nine years, I hadn’t actually walked all the way there from anywhere inside of Berkeley. I’d always taken the bus or gotten a ride in. There’s a bunch of… Continue reading ribbons
