My Tumblr
My New Year’s Resolution for my Tumblog is to make it less of a reblogging hub and more of a personal blog.
I feel like reblogging everything and not posting as much original content kinda makes it into a lot more of an amateur looking thing, and while obviously I’m not going for professionalism with Tumblr, I’d like it to look a little cleaner.
So starting Jan 1, I’m...
Things I Do Not Want

Dear Company X
In the modern age, there are too many people calling into your toll-free hotline. You don’t have the money to hire too many people. So you employ a couple of automatic call receivers.
If you’re waiting to speak to someone about your order, press 2…

As it happens, I also subscribe the the belief that my grandmother is a domestic artist.

I just turned her on for the first time in a while, and her music is depressing!

Adventures in America
Having lived in Japan where everything is a bazillion dollars for 4 years makes me unconditioned to the insane commercialism that is so rampant in American shopping malls.
Today I bought a 17” lava lamp on sale for $20. What the hell am I gonna do with a 17” lava lamp? Something awesome, that’s what.
Like, I’ll be the coolest kid at college. All the ladies will come to...
Life, vol. 8
What has my life become in the past year? Aside from the odd two or three people, I don’t have anybody from home that really “gets” me anymore. And I jive with about the same number of people in Japan as I do here.
When did I become so independent? Why couldn’t I just follow along with the guys instead of becoming so pretentious? Should I have refrained from buying that...
Blood on the Tracks
I’ve listened to you in vintage vinyl, the way you were meant to be listened to, 3 times today.
The flea mall is a wonderful invention.
