YEAAAAAAAAAAH I'M GOING TO RADIOHEAD!
Buying tickets was a madhouse. This is why artists need to come to Australia more. 8 years, Radiohead? Seriously? (ridiculously happy right now)

In philosophy, “The Absurd” refers to the conflict between the human tendency to seek value and meaning in life and the human inability to find any. In this context absurd does not mean “logically impossible,” but rather “humanly impossible.” The universe and the human mind do not each separately cause the Absurd, but rather, the Absurd arises by the...

sort-of-craving-icecream-still
walking in a shopping centre it suddenly seems strange how people say that life is here to teach us. I mean, I find it all very anthropocentric somehow. Galaxies upon galaxies upon millions and unknown trillions, there’s a sort of awe I get in insignificance— that moment when you look around and realise of a sudden how very small you are, amongst it all. That ‘I-could-cry’....

archaeologicalnews:
A stick figure man with a giant phallus dubbed “the little horny man” by its discoverers is the oldest rock carving found yet in the Americas, researchers say.
These findings might shed new light on when the New World was first settled, scientists added.
The time frame during which…
what is this little life?

The thought that I’m already travelling in space makes me feel better about a lot of things. That despite the fact that other people may have traveled more than me, have more money or a better education, none of that matters. Looking up at the sky, knowing infinity stretches outward and we’re passing through that (not just physically, being on earth, but in temporal terms; as a blip in...

Words and Tiny Worlds~
Sitting here with my pot of green tea (‘Jade Ring Green’— I think of Imperial China, dinosaurs they thought were dragons) and infinitudes of sugar plums. I sort of like where I am right now, in that I have the luxury of time to really, fully throw myself into things. I’m learning so much, hmm. But I was thinking how good it is to write down thoughts and consider them, and...
The Floor -- Russell Edson
The floor is something we must fight against. Whilst seemingly mere platform for the human stance, it is that place that men fall to. I am not dizzy. I stand as a tower, a lighthouse; the pale ray of my sentiency flowing from my face. But should I go dizzy I crash down into the floor; my face into the floor, my attention bleeding into the cracks of the floor. Dear horizontal place, I do not...

I feel like often people assume things of me, a sort of ‘Kate would do this’, or ‘that is such a Kate thing to do!’ mode of thinking, and almost just as often I think to myself, ‘that’s not a ‘Kate’ thing to do at all.’ But I was thinking lately that I do actually hide a lot of myself from…
I experience the same thing partially. Always have received “that is such a...

aspirations:
I want to fall asleep in a dark room. Wake up, light coming through the curtains and the silk. Float in jellyfish arms. I’ll wake up one day and stand out there in my underwear; breathe on the window and press my fingers onto it. Outside, there are other things happening but meanwhile I watch motes of dust alight on wooden floors. I’ll think about things like how silence is a sound and...

wear less makeup> have less skin irritation> have clearer skin> need to wear less makeup in the first place.

rebelqualitybutter replied to your post: oh how about that. My shit is suddenly together.
wat happend
Nothing in particular. Just came to the realisation a lot of my problems were self-created— a sort of, I-have-no-commitments-so-I’ll-make-some-issues-of-my-own type thing going on in my subconscious.
But yeah, there are other (better) things to do with my time. I was sort of...
