The Columbine massacre was on this date in 1999. Instead of energizing our country to get gun violence under control, it kicked off a new normal. One of the best explanations ever of journalism's destructive impact on mass shootings came from Roger Ebert in his review of Gus Van Sant’s “Elephant.”
Good read, though I am enraptured that "patrimony" doesn't mean the same thing as "matrimony" which applies for same-sex marriages too.
In his arms I am a bomb
I have only 2 or 3 Tori-Amos-enabled friends, none who have seen Mother Mary, and I am feeling so isolatedly alone right now argh
"Hathaway used *Tori Amos* as a vocal reference while working with Antonoff to explore her range and tweak lyrics."
NO FUCKING WAY 🥹💕
#MotherMary
🎵 All of the power in me leads to the power in you 🎵
Followed by this one.
Incidentally, I think they both bookend the movie, being the first and last songs heard?
🎵 This black suit fits like a glove / I was born to be the widow of love / My red heart free like a dove / But you tell me that it's never enough 🎵
I think this is my favourite track from #MotherMary. It's very cunty.

#MotherMary 😇❤️🤚🩸💃
#MotherMary was sooo good! Has neat things to say, in a highly symbolic, theatrical way, if you're a creative who has done collabs.
I'll organize my thoughts on it soon. For now, the songs:

Wikipedia article snippet. Kuda Lumping (Javanese: ꦗꦫꦤ꧀ꦏꦺꦥꦁ, Jaran Kepang or Jathilan, Indonesian: Kuda Lumping or Kuda Kepang, English: Flat Horse) is a traditional Javanese dance originated from Ponorogo, East Java, Indonesia depicting a group of horsemen. Dancers "ride" horses made from woven bamboo and decorated with colorful paints and cloth. Generally, the dance portrays troops riding horses, but another type of Kuda Lumping performance also incorporates trances and magic tricks. When the "possessed" dancer is performing the dance in trance conditions, he can display unusual abilities, such as eating glass and resistance to the effects of whipping or hot coals. Although the dance is native to Java, Indonesia, it is also performed by the Javanese communities diaspora in Suriname, Malaysia and Singapore, popularly known as Kuda Kepang.

It seems to be a "resist gentrification" story, incorporating non-supernatural animal spirit possession.

I'm a career mathematician and college prof. Hit me up anytime.
There is no magic here. Only the rust of the real.
I don't want to be alone, but I am.
Here's to your 41st turn around the sun, you fat ungrateful fool.

EPF is such a big joke.
There is little left to enjoy at that age.
Give me the goddamn money now or I swear it'll-
Didn't go where I wanted to go, because it wasn't up to me, today.
Didn't get a cake. Didn’t light candles. Didn't even make a wish.
High blood sugar levels lead to another slight change of medication.
It's because of Ramadan, I say, and the month-long Eid parties, obviously.
Really it's the hypomania, reckless quaffing of sweet nectars.
Putting a stop to that (again).
I bet this starts after you play a Bond Movie Cold Open
