"There is no such thing as gay kids."
Bitch. I knew at 7. And everyone else knew, too. Y'all were calling me fag, gay, queer, homo, swinging your wrists at me, and walking with swishing hips to try and degrade me all over the playground the moment I stood upright.
Fuck off.
Millennials have a duty to kick all boomers out of all elected office
We’re sick of being governed by geriatrics
It’s time for the next generation to rule
fast food, fast fashion, songs being sped up, tv show seasons being only 8 episodes long, replacing youtube vlogs with fifteen second "day in the life" tiktoks, people in their 20s complaining about being too old...everything is so rushed, we have lost the art of lingering.
This performance is captivating everyone’s heart, and it’s because we yearn for art, for meaning, for beauty
We don’t want to be mindlessly entertained anymore, made to consume what they think we want to watch
We don’t want to be fed whatever executives think will hold our attention. We don’t want to be studied, predicted, and sold back to ourselves.
So much of what we see now isn’t art. It’s market research. It’s built around the viewer, what we’ll click, what will spike engagement.

I’m stuck in a club with an endless loop of All The Things She Said. Two guys are staring at each other intensely as the words “this is not enough” play over and over. I hope the one in the leopard shirt does something because the one in white looks like he’s gonna end it all.
It’s crazy in retrospect how confident and hopeful my generation (millennials) were fifteen years ago. We were making ground-breaking music. We were going to end racism forever. The internet was making everyone kinder and smarter. We had such dreams of a better world.
embarrassing performance from me in the TSA line just now. came in too confident, took the laptop out on a laptop in the bag day. gotta be flawless on the return trip back to recover from this one
