" I like Mumford & Sons a lot, but I don’t own any complete albums. But maybe that just proves I am more of the times than I care to admit"

how to not be self involved: submit yr inner monologue for publication

Nothing is more bracing than not being concerned about what other people think. I have no idea why anyone cares. Trust me: No one is looking. I know: I am looking. People are self-involved. They are all waiting for you to ask about how gifted their kids are. I wish people were judging each other a great deal more, and more carefully, but they are not. Knowing this, I have no trouble being myself. It works well. I will die screaming.

I like how she doesnt care about what people think about her being obsessed about what other people think. It's an intriguing paradox thats at the center of all her recent work.

'intriguing'

I just think it's like, an aporia in the logic of her texts that give them a certain tension, or vulnerability, that is mildly compelling, which is why she manages to be both very readable and insanely self-centered.

I fully expect to be the only person who thinks this.

But my answer to the thread title is dud, i guess, but i read her pieces when i stumble across them and think she has a distinctive voice.

I am terrified by the cardboard signs beggars now have, like we don't know, and of course we do not. They say too much or not nearly enough.
