given my tendency to post about the beach boys once a week, I have to post a rec for my goat. rest in peace, legend. if you havent listened to the beach boys or brian's music in general, I'd reccomend it to everyone. absolutely gutted that he's no longer with us. the beach boys have been part of my life for the last 14 years or so and I can genuinely say my life wouldn't be the same without his music. it was the first thing my now boyfriend and I talked about when we matched on bumble. I can still remember hearing Surf's Up for the first time and thinking it was the most beautiful song ever made- then sending it to my crush (we were like 10 btw) and being shocked when he didn't agree. he was one of my inspirations for picking up a bass guitar (along with paul mccartney ofc). his music has gotten me through tough times and brought out so many emotions in me. Im so gutted right now yall. love and mercy ❤️

The man responsible for dozens of Teenage Symphonies to God
"Sad songs about happy things" (the first time, as a kid, I can recall the sweet/sour combo of melodies that could make you cry attached to songs about endless, bottomless love)
I've long since lost track of how many weddings and funerals I've attended that have featured this song; suffice it to say, "a lot."
God only knows what we'd been without him 🙏🏻

I was bullied a lot for my eye color as a kid (because me having very dark brown hair and very dark brown eyes made me look "evil", apparently) and, naturally, began to dislike them. but as I've gotten out of school and away from people who put me down, I've realized how insane it is to bully someone over their eye and hair color and grown to love the color of my eyes. I mean, they may be dark but there's nothing wrong with that. and I can take pretty pictures of my eyes too, I just have to blind myself and almost stare into the sun to do so lol

recently, when I wake up in the morning and have time to kill, I've been spending a bit of time reading before or after I get myself ready to go about the day instead of sitting on my phone when I first wake up. I feel like it helps clear my mind for the day and it feels nice to not immediately scroll when I wake up like I used to
