You Can't Teach God Anything

I noticed that my opponent is always on the go
And won’t go slow so as not to focus, and I notice
He’ll hitch a ride with any guide
As long as they go fast from whence he came
But he’s no good at being uncomfortable, so
He can’t stop staying exactly the same

“

—	Fiona Apple, Extraordinary Machine

The reason why some women and queer people feel an affinity with her music is that it displays the destabilizing power of “oversharing,” the strangely radical gesture of presenting your mind and your body and your life as it is— which is always going to provide more of a release to the people who’ve been cautioned against sharing those sorts of things in the past.

I’ll soar the uneven wind, complain and blame the sterile land

We are not special. We are not crap or trash either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens. This is the place where I share my ideas, opinions, and interesting things I find on the internet. I'm not a genius, though I paid for four years of college, so I get to think I'm smarter than some people. My sense of humor is dark and eccentric and it might go way over everybody's head. I like to make myself laugh first. If anyone else laughs, well then that's just dandy. I'm also a nerd in the sense that I have the tendency to get really excited and passionate about stupid stuff like the following: Glee, iPhones, Martha Stewart, Doctor Who, 30 Rock, Macs, Fiona Apple. Don not be confused. I am not a hipster. There is nothing ironic about my obsessions, my clothes, or my kick-ass Ray Ban wayfarer glasses. I truly love them. The only thing I'm "over" is the moon. I am an atheist, and that's all you need to know about that. PS: I think I make really good playlists. You can spend the rest of your days trying to suck your earlobes if you don't agree.
