Midnights + favorite lines/songs
Why can't you sleep? Maybe you lie awake in the aftershock of falling headlong into a connection that feels like some surreal cataclysmic event. Like spontaneous combustion, or seeing snow falling on a tropical beach. A lavender haze crush that feels like the crash of wave.
Or was tonight the night you realized how solitary, how alone you really are, no matter how high you climb. The elevation just makes it colder.
Some midnights, you're out and you're buzzing with electric current — an adventurer in pursuit of rapturous thrill. Music blaring from speakers and the reckless intimacy of dancing with strangers. Something in this shadowy room to make you feel shiny again. On these nights, you know that there are facets of you that only glow in the dark.
Why are you still up at this hour? Because you're cosplaying vengeance fantasies, where the bad bad man is hauled away in handcuffs and you get to watch it happen. You laugh into the mirror with a red wine snarl. You look positively deranged.
Maybe you were trying to mastermind matters of the heart again. You've gotten lost in the labyrinth of your head, where the fear wraps its claws around the fragile throat of true love. Will you be able to save it in time? Save it from who? Well, it obvious. From you.

Well the thing is I am very strong and brave and I am not beaming the most loathsome of mind beams at people nor am I reverting to the mind of a humble rolly polly cowering beneath a rock

i almost never take photos in art museums, bc like... if you wanna see a picture of starry night you can easily find a hundred of them online. but i wanted to try to capture the social experience of seeing a painting this famous!
it was very, very cool to see a painting in a crowd of people who were also so excited to see it. and there's also something undeniably social about my entire lifetime of knowing about this painting. there's the cultural mythology around van gogh that's pretty far from the truth of his life & work, and there's the love & relationships & health care & education & interdependence that made up so much of his reality. there's the book i've read (a gift from my sister) of vincent's letters to his brother theo, and the love between the two of them, and the fact that i got to see this painting during a visit with my own brother. there's the episode of doctor who i've seen that thousands of other people have watched, and there's the stories i heard hannah gadsby tell during nanette that thousands of other people have heard, and there's the lessons my elementary school art teacher taught to me and the hundreds of other students who passed through her classroom. there's the exhibit of van gogh's work that i saw with my best friend in philadelphia in 2012 which was maybe the first time a painting made me weep (almond blossoms my beloved). and and and and and. i held all of this and more as i stood in the midst of that crowd in front of starry night.
what a gift to get to have this experience!

Drew this little guy over my long weekend and forgot to post it here!
I don't have a lot of time on my school terms, so I unfortunately have to put aside my hobbies during this time of year, but I really wanted to draw because I've been getting back into Pokemon again.
Zorua has been one of my favorite Pokemon since Gen 5's release, and I love the Hisuian Zorua design as well.
