Everyone alive wants answers and even in the union of marriage many know no greater delight than proving their partner wrong and themselves correct
I used to babysit a family and I would look so deep in the little boy’s eyes into the dark hole in the center full of air covered by a thin little bubble lens and ask if it made him feel more solid when he proved his kid sister to be a moron. I asked his parents if they wanted me to discipline him when he threw his own sister under the bridge like this and they told me to relax.
Every few years someone picks something up and says NO~ they say no to what everyone used to know it to be and every day after that everyone is forced to call it by it’s new names and understand it in its new weighting
Every day some people twirl a piece of metal against a wet stone and some people do it for a reason and some people do it just to do it.
In images they twirl blades against some stones to create a punctuating esCHRLING sound and people mumble this sound in the mirror to imagine themselves a badass between visions of people who undermined them toppling like dominos in the face of their breath and sexual partners fainting at the mention of their name. They see their mother living comfortably in the same breath as a dog with goggles on its forehead and purple lightning bolts in its blood saying lock and load before it fills its framepack with oatmeal to rollout one last time before dawn

Everyone wants to be spoonfed a definition of everything before they take a guess what it is and then it’s always us standing in different locations in different poses saying if we don’t tell you what it is you will engage with it very briefly because it produces anxiety within you to sit with uncertainty, if we do tell you what it is you append your own anecdotes to what you now accept as the primary definition and this is good and you should keep doing it but it would be better if you did it more aggressively proclaiming at the root instead of sprinkling on optional addendums
It would be really great if you did all this in a way where you could feel very established in your idea of what it is and your neighbor could hold onto something extremely contrary but this is no problem even in the slightest
It would be lovely if you did it in such a way that when challenged you didn’t even defend it because to you there are no stakes and everything can always be replaced
my friends and in trusting me this becomes the basis through which you can find trust in them
Everything here was made inside of a computer
11 years ago someone told me Karl Lagerfeld said THE ONLY SURE WAY TO GET A MILLION IN THE FRONT DOOR IS TO THROW IT OUT THE WINDOW but I’ve never been able to find anything that says that he actually said that
