*Originally published in Bimbo Magazine* I’m moving for the first time in my life, and I am suddenly faced with the question of style. I’ve gone through my closet, pulling out the ghosts of fashion’s past and setting them aside to donate. I’m reminded of all the phases my closet…

When I first downloaded Willow and began listening to it, I knew I wasn’t ready yet. I first heard Sloppy Jane because their song “Bark Like A God” was on a Halloween playlist on spotify, and I was absolutely obsessed with it. But that song taken out of context of…

I… don’t even know how to begin this one. This whole project started as an attempt to impress Phoebe Bridgers, though it’s ending as something else entirely. I wrote a whole long thing about how my unhealthy obsession with Phoebe Bridgers was over, how it was never about her in…

I used to be one of those people who said I liked all music except rap and country. I am no longer one of those people. I think writing off entire genres like that is reductive, and even worse, singling out those specific genres tends to be an act of…

I just spent like an hour writing 1,100 words about my obsessions with the intent on posting it on this blog, but honestly, I don’t know if I’m up for that. My relationship to the things/people I obsess over are fraught, and I haven’t really figured out what the newest…

I saw Soccer Mommy in concert before I appreciated her music the way I do now. I saw her with my partner James at Metro Gallery in Baltimore, and it was lovely to see her in such a small, local venue. At some point in her set, she mentioned her…
