Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood.
- Orwell
Life is a horror movie with cartoon sound effects.
Some things I like: the woods, abandoned buildings, old Riot Grrrl records, old British sitcoms (especially ones with Rik & Ade), animals, outsider art, science (i'm the sort of weirdo who reads about the Krebs cycle for fun), history, museums, birb memes.
I believe in nothing (but it is my nothing). Working towards becoming a vet. Musician but then so's everybody. Kind of obsessed with science. From a small town in Kent that I may return to eventually but am currently in west London.
Not interested in anything poly (have done it, no wish to do it again) or hookups (ditto, more than once). I would like nice boring stability plz.
Am about a fiftieth as serious as this makes me sound. Even if I am a miserable misanthropic twāt inside I would far rather talk about getting beaten up by angry potatoes or cyborg guinea pigs or something.
Books: William Burroughs, J.G. Ballard, Douglas Adams, Wodehouse, Orwell, Palahniuk, Osamu Dazai, comics (but not really superhero ones). As of writing I'm reading Brave New World.
TV: Young Ones, One Foot in the Grave, Blackadder, Python, Alan Partridge, Black Books, The X-Files, documentaries about horrible things.
Music: punk, rock, a bit of metal, a bit of pop. The first ones that come to mind: Hole, The Misfits, Manic Street Preachers, PJ Harvey, Nirvana, Die Antwoord, Rudimentary Peni, Muse, Peaches, Placebo, QOTSA, Silverchair, Royal Blood, Kate Bush, Crass, Lawrence Arms, Marilyn Manson, Lady Gaga, King Blues.
Movies: Kind Hearts & Coronets, the Alien franchise, Fight Club, Casablanca, Indiana Jones, Tarantino, Powell & Pressburger (Black Narcissus, A Matter of Life & Death, Colonel Blimp, etc.).. basically a mixture of cuddly old black and white movies and kind of unpleasant modern ones.
