IG Model

I’ve got this urge to share many of the things that I feel and experience and also those that I wish to experience. Who am I sharing them with by posting on an instagram story? Is it any less of a call for communication when it’s presented as a joke? Or, at the very least, does it come off that way? I miss people and I am communicating with them by posting on the instagram story I know they will view. This way they see me. While they may not want to talk to me or be around me, they will see me. And I need to be seen, if only as an unintended periphery.

I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One by Yo La Tengo is playing. Genius. Their music is so unique but feels like it encompasses everything. Emotionally, of course, this album expresses something personal and universal and just seismically calming. But it also encompasses so much culturally in a way I’m not sure I can explain. While their sound is totally their own they’re also fully a product of their time. Though Yo La Tengo  played a role as one of the pioneers of that time’s sound. IDK. After seeing them live I’ve been more impressed with this band than anyone else of recent. The singer sounds a bit like Lou Reed.
