VIRGIN SUICIDES

i dunno if i woke up today better or worse.
trying to keep yourself always busy is a lot of work.
im not sure what to do today.
just have to stop thinking and it will all come together.
i just sleep more and that kind of helps.
thats what always happens, so why not follow the formula.


science is so interesting but i feel i could never do it, but really everyone can in a way.

i wonder if everyone is this bored and alone.

  1. Dear Lisa Weltz,

    You are bird.

    " By the end of the nineteenth century, Navarette says, many people believed that they had reached the peak of the evolutionary roller coaster and were poised to plunge, screaming, into the depths of dissolution and degeneration.

    Convinced the end was near, certain Europeans decided to leap before they were thrown, adapting a lifestyle that resembled an eternal hurricane party. These sensualists abandoned conventional behavior and embraced the very physical dissolution they feared most, Navarette says. Devotees of this culture of decadence flung themselves into a life of sexual promiscuity and drug and alcohol abuse. Transported from the Continent to London in the 1880s, the culture soon found both flesh and fiction followers among the British.

    Young artists and writers such as Aubrey Beardsley and Oscar Wilde gave stylish expression to the cruder fears of their era. With its images of fetuses in evening clothes and the bare-breasted sirens that had birthed them, Beardsley's art was considered outrageous.

    Beardsley and Wilde were trying to shock middle-class sensibilities, Navarette says. Paradoxically, however, these artists were as much reactionaries as revolutionaries. "They were like adolescents, desperately afraid of surrendering the very attitudes they were trying to kill off," she says. "
