"It is a matter of grave importance that Fairy tales should be respected.... Whosoever alters them to suit his own opinions, whatever they are, is guilty, to our thinking, of an act of presumption, and appropriates to himself what does not belong to him." -- Charles Dickens
I decided to get into jazz at the same time as I decided to get into red wine; aged 19, home for Christmas after my first term at university. I asked for a bottle of something Spanish and a Miles Davis album, and received a good rioja and Kind Of Blue. Fifteen years later and both have become key parts of how I live my life, of who I think I am.
Some people might feel like it's unnatural or pretentious to consciously decide to try and 'get into' something like jazz, as if the only worthwhile actions human beings can undertake are those that follow some kind of authentically visceral grunting animal instinct. But that's bullshit; the fact that we can decide to consciously do things, choose to learn, to persevere, to better ourselves, is what makes us human. There are techniques for doing everything and anything better, even things we think are instinctive and natural; physiotherapy can make you walk better, Alexander Technique can make you breath better, elocution can make you speak better. Deciding to 'get into' jazz is no different than deciding to try riding a bike or playing football or learning a language, and it can be just as rewarding.
i wish people on the internet didn't keep trying to take credit for things they didn't make
so often you see people saying 'oh i just came up with this' or 'i just snapped this photo' when it's something that was already posted on reddit or facebook or whatever
like why would you do that?
quite apart from it being a dumb thing to lie about, it's so easy to get found out
My brother, on his two years in Florida, saw a millennia old tree called Senator. We have the picture of it! He promised to take me to see it if he ever went back to Florida.
I wonder if it has seeds/acorns/pinecones so you could plant a baby Senator. Baby Senator is fun to say. Baaaaaby Senatooooor.

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
here is cool too ofc
have an unsolicited picture of me on my Generic White Rap Producer swag.
I think it would be much more clever if the artist carefully his his name in the image, like Hirschfield's hidden Nina's.
Nice try stealing the credit for a drawing when the drawing itself is saying it's not actually by you.
keep lookin
