When I\'m drunk and my best friend says she feels fat & ugly
-
“As the nervous system matures, a baby reclaims some regulatory processes and performs them autonomously. Even after a peak parenting experience, children never transition to a fully self-tuning physiology. Adults remain social animals; they continue to require of source of stabilization outside themselves. That open-loop design means that in some important ways, people cannot be stable on their own—not should or shouldn’t be, but can’t be. This prospect is disconcerting to many, especially in a society that prizes individuality as ours does. Total self-sufficiency turns out to be a daydream whose bubble is burst by the sharp edge of the limbic brain. Stability means finding people who regulate you well and staying near them.”
— from A General Theory of Love, by Thomas Lewis, Fari Amini and Richard Lannon. One of my favorite books about the brain. -

M A K E O U R S E L V E S A N I D O L | a fanmix for the young wolves for my precious baby sister shewolfs, who does everything so brilliantly and is leaving me for a while. i shall miss you dearly, mel.
01. WILDERLAND | ANAIS MITCHELL
oh father shepherd, a father is a shepherder / oh father shepherd, father shepherd us / from the wild wolves howling / …your cities are a wilderland / look upon your children / wandering in the wilderland / wandering in the woods
02. IN YOUR NATURE (DAVID LYNCH REMIX) | ZOLA JESUS
it used to be that the war was brought / but now the end becomes us again / we never let it in / and in the shadows a burning light / it’s getting deeper for the fight
03. BLUE BLOOD | FOALS
you’ve got blue blood on your hands / i want you to know / i hoped you’d come and take me away back to my home / of all the people, it had to be you
04. READY TO START | ARCADE FIRE
all the kids have always known that the emperor wears no clothes / but to bow down to them anyway is better than to be alone / if i was scared, i would / and if i was bored, you know i would / and if i was yours, but i’m not
05. ROMULUS (MOULLINEX REMIX) | THE VOLTAIRE TWINS
we keep our names stitched inside our shoes / names are the easiest thing to lose / but when the blood in our mouths turns clear i can taste every word
06. TO BE A WOMAN | LAURA MARLING
and i’m not dead yet, but i could be soon / and all i want to do is put my arms around you / little girl, you got screwed / girl, little girl, you need to learn
07. COMING DOWN | BON IVER
i never felt so high / i never felt so high / i think i’m coming down / i never laughed so loud / i never laughed so loud / i think i’m coming down / please, please don’t leave / easy feeling / don’t leave me like that / not yet / don’t set me free
08. SLOOM | OF MONSTERS AND MEN
the books that i keep by my bags are full of stories / that i drew up from a little dream of mine, a little nightmare of yours / to be asked to take this plunge / to forgive and forget and be the better man / so love me mother, and love me father / and love my sister as well
09. AMERICAN HEARTS | A. A. BONDY
we were raised by wolves and we are still wild / and we howl when the troubled wind blows / …don’t you get low as hell when the peace dove is felled / by the men with the blackest of minds
10. WOLF | FIRST AID KIT
when i run through the deep dark forest long after this begun / where the sun would set, trees were dead and the rivers were none / and i hope for a trace to lead me back home from this place / but there was no sound / there was only me and my disgrace
11. THE LIBERTINE | PATRICK WOLF
the circus girl fell off her house and now she’s paralysed / the hitchhiker was bound and gagged, raped on the roadside / the libertine is locked in jail / the pirate sunk and broke his sail / but i still have to go / i’ve got to go, so here i go / i’ve got to run the risk of being free
