TLDR; i am on the path towards getting a very major surgery for a disease i've unknowingly had since adolescence (condylar resorption) that causes progressive bone loss and osteoarthritis in the jaw. i'm going on semi-hiatus while i await next steps so i can eventually get surgery and recover, which will take about 1-2 years in total.

The social attitude regarding age is consistently getting weirder. You’re not ‘pushing 30’ you’re just in your late 20s. 30 is not old and neither is 40 while I’m at it. Growing older is an enormous privilege and displaying that age is a gorgeous component of life. Spending your days trying to reverse that grace breeds an eternally wasted life.
I cannot stress enough how important it is to do silly, frivolous things that serve no other purpose than making you happy.

“she’s such a hack, there’s no poetry here, she’s rhyming aristotle with grand theft auto”
yes, on the song called “so high school” that is deliberately a lighthearted and deeply unserious song on an album that is almost exclusively dark and intricate, she went with some lighthearted juvenile tongue-in-cheek lines that are meant to be laughed at
“she claims she was raised in an asylum when you can google it and she grew up on a farm in pennsylvania”
yes, good job, that is how metaphors work and this song probably isn’t even entirely about herself. in the same song she says “the circus life made me mean” and “don’t worry folks, we took out all her teeth”. are you also calling her a liar for having teeth and not being an actual tiger or
like i swear to god it is perfectly fine to just say you don’t like her or her music/this album isn’t for you but the way some of yall are claiming there’s no substance to this album is disingenuous imho
callout post for billy joel’s piano man: he was never actually IN the bar in question!! what a hack
