Reading Log: Rejection

I read Rejection by Tony Tulathimutte. 📚
Extremely depressing. Debilitating levels of chronic cringe. Possibly the most self-aware book ever. Life-affirming empathy machine. Absolutely hilarious. 5 out of 5, would read again. BOTY?

I read Body Work: The Radical Power of Personal Narrative by Melissa Febos again. 📚
Took so many notes and quotes from this today, which I always think I am going to do with books like this but rarely ever do. Learning to be more deliberate and thorough about my reading and writing, I hope.

I listened to The Sunset Violent by Mount Kimbie. 🎵
Genre: dreampop indie rock? I don’t know what, was expecting something dubsteppy James Blake-y and this was honestly better than I thought it would be

on posting updates again, and pushing to some social media sites

Decided to start posting again and push my updates to micro.blog and then to a bluesky account I set up. Thinking about pushing to Threads as well, but not pulling the trigger on that yet.
Now to see whether it works like I hope it will, wether I stick with it or get scared, whether I actually want anyone in the world to be aware of my weird little website.

I listened to Florist by Florist. 🎵
Queued this up after Night Palace because Night Palace made me think of it and it’s lowkey one of my favorite albums ever.

I listened to Night Palace by Mount Eerie. 🎵
Listed genre as: nature noise folk rock
I’m trying to get organized and be more deliberate about doing the things I actually want to do, so among other things I put down “Start listening to music again” for Today in my Reminders app, and then I finally listened to this album while putting away laundry and stuff.
