Southerner, newly in southern California after a half-decade in northwest DC. Easy to get along with. Sailor-mouthed. Likes to chat. It just sort of goes from there.
..Rural: 1 / Urban: 0
Conversation, conservation, vegetarian approaches, flyover country, coastal California, Santa Monica, discovering new music, rediscovering old music and the big, glittering Gay Agenda.
Geekboys, bar girls, and stoner celebrities.
Fucking all of it.
Permanently at the top: Premiers Symptômes and Moon Safari; Music has a Right to Children and Geogaddi; Madonna and twangy hillbilly women like Wanda Jackson and Sammi Smith.
City of God, Grey Gardens, Baraka, Velvet Goldmine, A Thousand Clowns, Rocky Horror, The Big Lebowski ("My father's weakness is vanity, hence the slut."), the Times of Harvey Milk, Paris Texas, Irreversible, and both Solaris and Solyaris (for different reasons).
Mystery Science Theater 3000 will never be outdone. 'Planet Earth' is gorgeous, but it makes me want a really big television set.
Michel Houellebecq, Carl Sagan, Mary Doria-Russell, Janet Frame. I come back to the Odyssey at least once each year.
I'm a sucker for basic science, fast fiction and prosa oratio.
Consolidation.
