Money is honestly a nightmare, isn't it? Sometimes I feel like every single problem we face starts with cash. I can't even stand being around ultra-wealthy people; their whole vibe just triggers something weird in me. Honestly, deep down, I think I might just be a total socialist 😁 who’d rather see all that wealth redistributed equally among everyone on the planet. A colleague of mine once had this idea about building some insanely smart AI program to handle the global redistribution of assets, which actually sounds pretty cool. I don't even want to be rich by default because I'm terrified it would change me for the worse and make me even lazier. I'm better off living like this, working for what I need to get by. If I suddenly had a massive surplus, I'd probably just blow it on eco-friendly stuff, obsess over animal rights 😁, drive a Tesla, go full solar power, and basically become this huge environmental eccentric. If I ever hit the jackpot on a Powerball ticket—though I've never played, so who knows how I'd even 😂—I'd probably start my own business. It would be fun to build a successful company from the ground up. Maybe I'll do it one day, but I'm way too lazy for all that grind; I'd much rather just chill and enjoy the little things. I value my free time too much.

Everything shifted for me once I landed a steady 9-to-5. I stopped stressing about money constantly and finally started relaxing. Back when I was at NYU, the pressure to balance studying with working was absolutely brutal. It was exhausting—it actually got so bad once that I ended up getting sick right in the middle of the street from pure stress. And looking back, it was all just because of the money struggle.

there's plenty more where those came from..

Solid movie 🙂 Honestly, you can never have enough feature-length animation!

I’m actually a huge fan of tribute bands... I mean, I’ll probably never see Azra or Led Zeppelin live, but I absolutely love hearing people cover their tracks, and I definitely won't be sitting at home crushing three beers while jumping around to their studio albums... it’s just not the same, right? So if the band isn't total garbage and they actually bring a little something unique to the table, I'm all in. Even with the bands that are still touring today... what are the odds I can catch every single one of my favorites every year instead of just picking one or two? Or what are the chances I'll ever get to see every artist I love in my entire lifetime?? Zero. It's zero. You don't have the cash to fly out to New York or LA every weekend, but if you spend a fraction of that, you still get to enjoy the music and actually have a blast.

I actually thought the movie was decent, mostly just because of Woody Harrelson. He’s not exactly my favorite actor, but he’s definitely up there. I just caught him in Defender recently, and man, it was 😲 seriously deep 😁 like, the guy has so many different layers, and you see a new one every single time he's on screen.

I’ve only got eyes for two specific vibes:
1. That pure American redneck energy: basically a tribute to movies like Napoleon Dynamite, Natural Born Killers, or anything with that gritty, backwoods soul... man, there are so many classics out there.
2. That dark, trippy, comic-book aesthetic: think Sin City, V for Vendetta, Equilibrium, Memento, or Kill Bill... just total visual madness.

I don't know if you'd call it a full-on fetish, but there are certain parts of the body that just hit different for me—I could honestly stare at them for hours if they're shaped just right 🤷 That’s actually how I figured it out, you know? Just by staring and realizing how good it made me feel.

It usually lasts anywhere from a year to six years, I guess. And if things hadn't just gone south, who knows? It probably would've dragged on even longer... honestly, I think it all just comes down to how things play out. But yeah, I've had plenty of crushes... though I wouldn't exactly call them being in love.

Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, ISIS, Ozric Tentacles, The Residents, Eels, Muse (they get all the hype, though I haven't really gotten into them), Sigur Rós, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull...

If you ask me, ISIS makes the most complex albums out there, honestly they're the absolute kings of progressive music, yet somehow Wikipedia doesn't even mention them in that light, who knows why? 😕

🤷 My period is coming every 22-23 days now and I am seriously going to lose my mind, because it used to be every 27-28 days, so now suddenly it's every 22-23 (I'll probably have 15 a year at this rate). At least it doesn't hurt as bad anymore, though the only real change is that I've lost weight, so maybe that's why. 😲 This cycle is just weird.

I'm just totally over it. 😢

Yeah, both days.

😢 Man, I'm really hoping Mötley Crüe decides to tour somewhere nearby again soon.

Honestly, my only regret is missing out on Hell and Ruiz, especially since that mud was... well, something else entirely 😁

I've got one Festival Ticket for Hartera up for grabs 😢 $47, so if anyone’s planning on hitting it up, grab this now while $73 is still the move so you can actually save some cash.
