My current audio fixation/stim song.
perfect 80s bouncy synth and chord progressions that suggest we are in the golden dawn of unrequited love!
having a crush and being in love can feel so undignified! baby PLEASE give a little respect to me!
music video is also hilarious. watch if only to see the literal "little respect" exchange that happens around 58 seconds at the end of the first chorus.

One of the best little twee-pop albums in existence, in my opinion. I came across the CD during a college radio dj shift and the album cover looked too cute to pass up, so I played a track from it at random. It has since become an all-time favorite of mine <3

this is one of the most famous songs ever, so excuse my obvious-posting. And being late to the game. This is actually the song that got me into VU this past year. Sure, “Venus In Furs” is pretty sexy and grimy. I was shocked that the same band that made that song made this song. Gave me pause!
if I have kids this will be my lullaby for them. I sing it to my cat while she’s falling asleep- “sadie says/ that im really sleepy/ and a little hungry too”.
I can’t get over how beautifully observed the lyrics are. Each verse really cuts into something so human… “I hate the quiet places/the cut the smallest taste/of what will be”. Felt. That.
anyway enjoy.

this involves DEVELOPING YOUR DISCERNMENT AND DISCOMFORT TOLERANCE SKILLS! is that person morally evil or just not your cup of tea? are they trying to make you feel uncomfortable or are they also maybe a little nervous and doing their best?
we could really change the landscape of what community looks like if we open ourselves up to the idea of consistently offering respect and dignity to others even when we’re not dying to become their best friend, and joyfully sharing space with someone we might not ever know more than as an acquaintance. those are members of your community too!
this also allows for change over time- in the individual and in your own perspective and capacity for connection.

an intuitively mindful activity that humans have been doing forever. despite its innate destruction i find myself feeling connected to the earth. some logs are harder to chop through if they have knots, even in death the tree’s commitment to self preservation is admirable.
