This week I've been soaking up the sun on holiday in the Canary Islands listening to #postrock #gsybe

GY!BE

Why does F#A#Infinity always seem appropriate these days ("The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel"). I'm (much) older than an emotional teen and yet I know that this is where we're at. But it still feels like I'm being goth performative.

The things that I have so far identified as helping me be at #peace with the impending capitalo-fascist #destruction of life as we know it are:

— Shostakovich’s string quartets
— anything by Godspeed You! Black Emperor
— the first couple of bourbons
— ten minutes of Dead Kennedys

And that is about it.

Could there be writers added to this list? Perhaps Beckett’s novels from Molloy onwards. Perhaps others.

Visual art? Probably some American landscape photographers

But, above all, #gsybe
