There are different ways that I like to archive my life, privately and publicly. Some are temporary and others last years. So that is my excuse for sharing this year-end list of top 5 songs that really impacted me in 2018!!!
The order is: what popped into my mind first.
1. Little Wheel Spin and Spin–Buffy Sainte-Marie
Comments: I was introduced to Buffy Sainte-Marie on a playlist I saw posted on tumblr. I looked her up further and watched this video and was amazed and have been amazed ever since.
2. Nobody–Mitski
Comments: Obviously.
3. Christine Perfect–Lemuria
Comments: It seems like Lemuria is going through some Stuff right now, but check out this really posi video about people loving their dogs.
4. Screaming Females–Black Moon
Comments: This is good for when you are driving around in your car at night.
5. Oom Sha La La–Haley Heynderickx
Comments: This whole album is good for when you want to chill without being depressed. I listened to this album while painting a picture of my cat, and it was the right soundtrack. So anyways I posted the whole tiny desk concert.
another thing i dont like (is this New Internet or is this just how the world is?) is this inner pressure to create a brand for myself. Not literally, but more like: is this a mental health tumblr? a cute animal tumblr? a text post tumblr? a meme account? a grad school tumblr? is it for irl friends, or for internet friends, or for a bunch of randos? if i don’t post, will people lose interest in me? if i don’t post Original Content, will I get lost?
what i dont like about the New Internet is that im less anonymous than ever and I struggle between longing to be heard and fearing consequences if people actually hear me
hi i feel like i havent been loving my cat sufficiently and giving her enough attention. when i come home from school/work, i just lay around and/or do more school/work and i dont play with her enough but she still loves me and still asks for pets
