Just bought the first online puchase of my life
is this what it means to be an adult
inchesgiven:
The sky is grey and empty. I pull on sweaters, zip jackets, tug at hoods, layer after layer to stay warm. I’ve always been pale, but I never looked this sick. The coffee pot stays on all day, and I still yawn every few minutes, crawl into bed, try to sleep. People call, but I don’t go out. Mail comes, but I don’t open it. ...

I’ve just had a cider for the first time in months and I’m reeling after a few mouthfuls with a throbbing headache and an upset stomach. Vodka and OJ or gin and tonic are my other two regular drinks- what are your regular drinking orders when you head out or stay in?

Colporteur: I'm tired of smelling like chlorine. It is not an aphrodisiac. It's awful.
Thehilltheviewandthelights: Haha oh god imagine if it was.
Colporteur: Then I would be like the guy at the end of Perfume in the book/movie; orgies everywhere.

Dwelling
As though touching her might make him known to himself as though his hand moving over her body might find who he is, as though he lay inside her, a country his hand’s traveling uncovered as though such a country arose continually up out of her to meet his hand’s setting forth and setting forth. And the places on her body have no names. And she is what’s immense about the night. And their clothes...

Chaz Bundick is too attractive and humble in person and I want to cry because he is not mine to keep.

youdsay replied to your post: being slimmer is not impressing society, it’s being healthier. be healthy for yourself so you feel better today and live longer tomorrow! no offense but a Sz 20 is not healthy..
NOBODY WHO SAYS THESE THINGS ACTUALLY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE PERSON THEY’RE DIRECTING IT TO. THEY JUST SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT TO SAY “YOU’RE FAT AND I FIND FAT PEOPLE...

“NO, NO, NO!” Lou Bega shrieked. He punched a trumpeter in the throat. He grabbed hold of the guy who was playing congas and forced his head through the skin of the tallest drum. He tore off his clothes and tossed them into the waste paper basket and set them on fire. He shot the fire with a Magnum .357 revolver. He carved swastikas in his legs with the ceremonial sword...

I have this weird feeling when I get cheeseburgers to take out the pickles, but when I forget to it’s amazing. What do you make of that?
That was how my pickle-lution (work with me here) started, because I forgot to take them out and hand them to Dad who is normally stuck with a Big Mac full of pickles....

We can’t be friends if you’re one of those people who pick out the pickles from cheeseburgers.

The Scar's Birthday Party
by Franz Wright
Dim sun-checkered path through the forest, the perishing limbs loose their leaves; were they mine I would gladly let go all my gold leaves to carpet the ground her feet walk on, though she merely frown, forget I lived, and hurry on, for she must not be late; for reasons not at present time if ever known she can’t be late. She hurries on. She only knows that they are waiting. They...

In saying that, credit given where credit’s due. The Drums, Givers and Cults were better than their albums and held an amazing and fun stage presence. Twin Shadow’s set was crazy, they’re a group that are no doubt going to be going places. Toro Y Moi was my favourite act of the day, there wasn’t a single fault in their entire set and made my body shiver with the airwaves...

Today I have gained a throbbing headache from secondhand pot smoke and a broken heart by SBTRKT.
The end of Laneway Festival saw me stuck in the middle of a stoned out crowd that had run from Washed Out’s set to the stage for SBTRKT. We waited an hour an a half (including 30 minutes of their 45 minute set) as roadies handled computer and set difficulties without a single explanation or a...
The internet has failed me. Despite what it says, corn starch is not a great replacement for dry shampoo and currently my scalp appears to need to be baked for 160 degrees for forty minutes until golden brown.
It’s not brushing out and i look like I’m sporting an 80 yo’s wig equipped with dandruff. Excellent.
