“…like the frat boys we despise, we drink corporate beer and incestuously fool around with everyone’s roommate, best friend, and ex. we commute by bicycle and don’t eat meat but our passionate anti-oppression politics are constantly taking the backseat to our lives of drama, shit talking, broken hearts, revenge, falling outs and back stabbings. this battle between a drive to act on yr passionate politics and an obsessive involvement with petty shit that doesn’t matter creates a whole new dichotomy within me. i want to immerse myself in the fierce irrationality of my relationships and unrealistic passion in my politics but at the same time i lay in bed and dream about escaping it all and finding a more simplistic existence. i wonder how much longer i should stay here. once yr here it’s hard to leave the comfort of a porch, a beer, a rainstorm, a basement show and a million cute people who dress like they might have yr politics” -korinna irwin
