The leaves on the wall that are different shades of green and feel leathery and slick and almost oily are the leaves of an ivy, probably Hedera helix.
The expansive bush with arching branches and tight hemispherical clusters of white flowers trailing one by one along each branch is bridal-wreath spirea, Spiraea prunifolia. I love how its leaves resemble fern fronds, or little paws.
it is always an amazing feeling to be out in the world and to remember that you can touch, pick up, and inspect anything for any reason or no reason. almost everything in the world i just look at without touching. but i can touch almost anything
do you guys know about the internet roadtrip? right now somewhere between 500 and 900 people are collectively 'driving' a car on google street view trying to make it to canada. it's fun i recommend it
this is good and correct. that scene is in fact extremely horny
My toxic trait is finding O'Brien's interrogation of Winston to be extremely horny
Bad analogy : Like playing badminton with a tennis racquet on a squash court :: Worse analogy : Like playing worseminton with a tennis racquet on a squash court
daylight savings is actually truly one of the most evil things in the world. just casually forcing us to confront the fact that time is fake while torturing insomniacs, autistics and schoolchildren across the globe. when will the agony end
as someone who just finished moby dick & also is rediscovering their love for the mountain goats, I was wondering what your top moby dick tmg songs are. you are the best person i can think of to answer this :)
wow it is truly an honor and a privilege... im limiting this to my personal favorite reading of moby dick which is of course that it is a memory play ishmael puts on ad nauseum because he lives inside the shipwreck and doesn't know how to get out; ahab/whale dynamics would be a whole other project and this already got away from me as it is lol. so, some songs that are about compulsively reliving the day your life ended:
woke up new — i began to talk to myself almost immediately
how to embrace a swamp creature — got out of bed, could not remember my own name / condemned to walk the soil amongst all creatures wild and tame
the slow parts on death metal albums — stock up on gauze in case of accidents / try to keep my story straight
lab rat blues — living water to quench my thirst
going to mexico — i imagined your touch / it was almost too much
keeping house — and when you set the table, set it for two / the ghost on your doorstep has to eat, same as you
maize stalk drinking blood — this is an empty country, and i am the king
historiography — you were warm and that's all i remember
moon over goldsboro — spend all night in the company of ghosts, always wake up alone
almost every door — the moment’s never going to come / when anyone can say that the coast is clear
mobile — lord if you won't keep me safe and warm / then send down the storm, send down the storm
southwestern territory — i try to remember what life was like long ago / but it’s gone, you know
bleed out — i’m gonna make a gigantic mess / but it meant something important i guess
divided sky lane — i will someday learn how to let you go
i could literally keep doing this for hours. but what does everyone else think
