#Dancing on the Pier

[ladycharles]

My new song "Hands" is out now!

It's a paranoid disco-punk epic with shades of ELO, David Bowie, Late of the Pier, of Montreal, and Siouxsie and the Banshees (?)(not sure on that one). I hope you love it as much as I loved making this one 💖

Happy Birthday Joss!

She’s spending the day South of the Huntington Beach pier at one of the most famous surf breaks.

She zips up her wetsuit and paddles out.

Joss gets some great shots on her GoPro and can’t wait to show everyone back at the bus.

Who’s ready for birthday cake?

the "female gaze" isn't a real thing but if it was, Mamma Mia! (2008) would be the strongest contender and example of it.

Watching La La Land for my film class since I was sick for the in-class showing and I forgot how bored musicals make me. I mean, the lighting and use of color is beautiful, but the movie itself is just "eh". It doesn't do it for me. It combines one thing I'm disinterested in and very particular about (musicals) with something I hate (romance films). I'm trying so hard to keep an open mind, but good fuckin lord I'd rather watch something else.
