Do you have any advice for getting into things? I always feel like something is either mildly interesting for two seconds or I might be interested for a bit, and then never follow up because of lack of energy. I'm jealous of people with consuming passion even if I know I prefer having a calm engagement that doesn't cut into Person Time and Chore Time

hiya november. just wondering, did you ever cover the 1971 movie Wake in Fright? i could have sworn i once listened to a November Kelly Podcast Oeuvre episode about that movie but i cannot for the life of me find it anywhere and it's driving me crazy. thanks! :)

never. I think you must have dreamed it

Mounties gotta have one of the worst uniform quality-to-fame ratios of all time. Midnight pants (not breeches) with the flattest yellow stripe of all time? Right next to dark red/brown boots?? And then they made their very bright tunics out of scarlet(!?) serge so they look as cheap shiny and flat as possible. Terrible!

I kind of like it in the same way I like Superman’s costume being brightly coloured. It says ‘I am a big goofy dork and friend to all.’ Then you read about anything the RCMP do and you’re like uhhhh

What are your thoughts about flight attendant uniforms

that kind of neck scarf looks good on anyone but other than that I have no strong feelings

Really enjoyed The Conformist and the podcast episode! Well done! 😌

Thank you! I think it is one of the most beautiful, unsettling films I’ve ever seen

the prev ask w the dogtooth tattoo reminded me i wanted to let u know i named my industrial noise act where i play a singing saw through a bunch of distortion and delay and various other effects pedals 'dogtooth' in honor of bucking a decade of baroque/classical violin training to make strange and offputting sounds once described by an audience member as "surprisingly musical".

yessssssssssss

Dogtooth tattoo person again. I was coming to the TF liveshow but all the trains have been fucked so here it is

Months ago I posted here about being hairy and turkish. I am transitioning though but there’s so much body hair that I doubt i’ll ever be able to get rid of it all.

Am i still valid in being a lesbian? I know the answer is “yes” but i doubt i will be accepted in any communities because i just look like a hairy man even if my frame is becoming feminine.

here’s the thing. you can’t lose. dark hair is more easily removed. but also I know infinity people who would have to be physically restrained from hitting on a hairy Turkish lesbian. so you’re not just valid, you’re killing it
