Let's go paint the oil cans, write our names on a grain of sand. No one will remember us like I will remember us.

Autumn has certainly been leisurely in its arrival this year, at least in my central TX backdrop, but this week brought some slightly cooler temperatures and it’s starting to feel like like Fall is finally here. As usual, to go along with the colorful foliage, warm fashions and seasonal beverages, I have a new Autumn mixtape to help evoke the wistful, carefree feelings of the season. Click here to listen to this mix in its entirety via Spotify or Apple Music.

Hard to overstate my love for the new Hurray for the Riff Raff album "The Past Is Still Alive" and in the spirit of the title phrase I've been in a HFTRR YouTube-archive rabbit hole that I hope never ends

[bi-furiosity]

Don't become an angel with a broken wing We need you back down here on earth Nothing is as painful as birth Time flies when you're getting old I was born with a baby boy soul Maybe someday I'll see you again In a field, a war, a kingdom of sand

And I want to be like that, running wild and running free This year tried to kill us, baby Well good luck trying, you can't catch me

Collecting items of the past in hopes of connecting with a father I desperately long for. Somehow, my room is coming together, slowly but surely.

[snowdropheart]

you ever just ... hiding from the cops in ogallala nebraska getting dropped off on the county line you were so mean but i had to keep walking we walked that state on highway 30 time and i was in love with my american footprint tracks of blood left out in the snow salt lick beacon burnt by electrical fencing half-moon rising headlights down below now what do i do with this terrible feeling? been all these years i'm driving the same highway stretch you know that scene at the end of titanic? well i'm the one who's still playing on the deck meet me back in a san francisco bookstore down the stairs in the poetry aisle we'll get lost in a city forgotten 'cause i don't like change and i hate goodbyes now what do you turn into when all reality's blending? an image of a photocopy of a lie? i used to think i was born into the wrong generation but now i know i made it right on time to watch the world burn to watch the world burn to watch the world burn with a tear in my eye to watch the world burn to watch the world burn to watch the world burn i'm right on time in the autumn i'll be waiting around meet me in the autumn in the garden well well oooo ooo ooo oooooooo

Are you queer? Do you have religious trauma? Did you grow up in a rural area in the Bible Belt? Did you and your father have a strained relationship but since his death you’re noticing that you’re much more like him than you thought? (Okay that last one might be a little too specific.)

If you answered yes to any of those, you might like my new EP! If you do like it, please reblog this post so that other folks who need to feel less alone in this fucky life can maybe find comfort in my music too.
