My Soul Is Chaos, How Can It Be At All? There Is Everything In Me: Search And You Will Find Out. I Am

My Soul Is Chaos, How Can It Be At All? There Is Everything In Me: Search And You Will Find Out. I Am

My soul is chaos, how can it be at all? There is everything in me: search and you will find out. I am a fossil dating from the beginning of the world: not all of its elements have completely crystallized, and initial chaos still shows through. I am absolute contradiction, climax of antinomies, the last limit of tension; in me anything is possible, for I am he who at the supreme moment, in front of absolute nothingness, will laugh.

- Emil Cioran

It’s strange how hundreds of years ago someone would listen to a piece of music, decide they like it and then would probably never be able to hear the same piece again

“You’re told that you’re in your head too much, a phrase that’s often deployed against the quiet and cerebral. Or maybe there’s another word for such people: thinkers.”

tag yourself as movements in classical music

Medieval: often ignored, shy, secretly gay, likes to stay in the same place all the time, dreams of being a monk

Renaissance: loves to dance, likes fancy things (but not too fancy), nobody else could pick them out in a crowd but everyone is friendly to them

Baroque: very particular about everything, draws immensely detailed doodles, gets super side-tracked on pointless tangents, everyone's distracted dad friend

Classical: very neat bedroom, makes bad puns constantly, has a 9-5 job, everyone's helpful but slightly exasperated mom friend

Romantic: can never make up their mind about anything, gets shivers when they go to art museums, cries a lot (and you'll know about it), sad bisexual (TM)

Impressionist: super gay, loves music that isn't in their native language, cries easily, just wants to have a good time

Early Modernist: just like Romantic but also does drugs and is afraid of but also super interested in sex

Serialist: angry at everything, "you don't understand my torment", probably a communist

Neoclassical: wants to be just like classical but has never gone to sleep before 1AM, keeps a very neat bedroom except for a single massive pile of clothes in the closet they refuse to acknowledge, occasionally steals Renaissance's hoodies

Total Serialist: 500% angrier than serialist and proud of it, has never had fun, has probably killed someone

Academic Avant-Garde: has never done the same thing twice, trusts nobody else, has an on-again-off-again relationship with total serialism

Minimalism: loves technology, still wears Google Glass and the Apple Watch, meditates for fun, trying to learn Hindi (and horribly failing), often incomprehensible to everyone else but is actually super friendly

Polystylism: originator of the term "pastel grunge", wears immensely clashing outfits, steals everyone's looks, memes

“Music carries the weight of being human, takes it away so you don’t have to think at all, you just have to listen. Music tells every story there is.”

“I probably still haven’t completely adapted to the world. I don’t know, I feel like this isn’t the real world. The people, the scene: they just don’t seem real to me.”

Person this morning: I don't think young people fully grasp the seriousness of climate change.

Me: Madam, young people are the ONLY people who fully grasp the seriousness of climate change.
