Actionable Advice
- When I love the album I don’t reach out to the artist. I just love the album privately.
- It’s okay for it to just be out there. That’s enough of an accomplishment.
- I’ve never been ready for anything, really. So it was a leap, but I think I had come to a place where I felt supported by my community, and I did feel acknowledged.
- I just called the best, dream people I could think of, and they just said yes…
- If a middle-aged jazz dude is vibing a young person, or vibing me, it’s like… what are you doing? You’re just insecure and this happened to you, but it doesn’t have to be like that.
- I want to be sad, so that I can be happy. I wanna be hurt, so that I can feel love. I and want to be hungry so I can stuff myself with pasta. I would never want to ignore the negative parts of life, or of myself, because then I wouldn’t be able to experience all of these wonderful things. I would just rather be full and experience everything.
- Happy is not what I’m going for. Fuck “happy”. It’s just one feeling in this whole range of feelings that are important to feel.
