(no subject)
i had this written on my ok for awhile but now im taking it down. i dont feel this way anymore, i guess, or not as much.
also, ive been really mulling over lately what LA is really about and thinking about how i love it so much. i really really love LA a whole lot, you guys, but not because of any of the prettier or more fashionable or obviously culturally rich or famous or iconically colorful parts. i have a perpetual urge to high five the starchy, fatty, annoying heart of los angeles, i mean just all that logistically impossible, endlessly sprawling, trashy, uncouth middle class suburb, laced with so much sugary crust of friendly strip mall, full of a whole mess of really different kinds of kids that all have a couple of things really funnily/comfortingly the same between of all of them(us). almost everything about the valley is so obnoxious but i think im starting to suss out a cultural flavor that is astonishingly impressive. there are a lot of reasons to be in love with this ridiculous tangle of pavements and i have been thinking a lot about a lot of them, from the really nakedly hedonist ones to the ones that are more kind of, you know, hedonism veiled in erudite and often really meta social/cutural theory. so yeah. talk to me about that.
