Now That I’m Older” by Sufjan Stevens

There’s so much travel
And now that I’m older
Someone else, can see it for myself

My birthday jam.

I don’t consider myself unfeminine at all. I think I’m very girlie. I like lots of products. I like unguents and creams. I could spend hours in a really nice drugstore. But I’m not sure that I match the regular standard of girlie — vulnerable, lovable, malleable.
— Martha Plimpton
For a while it was just he and I kidding around, laughing at our own jokes, but soon it became a powerful passion. It was us against them, and “they” were anybody, everybody — whoever they were, they were out there, and we were against them, jokingly.
— Deb Olin Unferth, Revolution (via distantheartbeats)

Fall, 1994
Because secrets do not increase in value if kept in a gore-ian lockbox, because one’s past is either made useful or else mutates and becomes cancerous. We share things for the obvious reasons: it makes us feel un-alone, it spreads the weight over a larger area, it holds the possibility of making our share lighter. And it can work either way - not simply as a pain-relief device, but, in the case of not bad news but good, as a share-the-happy-things-I’ve-seen/lessons-I’ve-learned vehicle. Or as a tool for simple connectivity for its own sake, a testing of waters, a stab at engagement with a mass of strangers.
— Dave Eggers, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius
Is it weird to have a president who knows science fiction? I just saw a speech John Hodgman gave in front of Obama, and there were all these Dune references, and seeing that Obama knew what he was talking about was just crazy.
— Dave Eggers, in conversation with Junot Diaz in the Boston Review back in December.  (via fabula)

The first song of Ólafur Arnald’s “Living Room Songs”. 

The song is called “Fyrsta”, which means “First”. Because it is the first song of the series, but also because this piano theme was the first thing i managed to write while temporarily living in Los Angeles after weeks of severe creative block while trying to adjust to a new and strange place. 

Violins: Gréta Salóme Stefánsdóttir and Margrét Soffía Einarsdóttir
Viola: Roland Hartwell
Cello: Unnur Jónsdóttir

Very emotional and touching. I can’t wait for the rest!
