Broken Social Scene, live, earlier
Seriously, some of the best live music I’ve ever seen - at least the final three songs (Meet Me In The Basement into Lovers’ Spit into It’s All Gonna Break). Even an insanely hot Academy 2 couldn’t damage my enjoyment, nor could the idiots who decided to start a full on, no shit mosh pit to Art House Director (wtf guys?).
Kevin Drew seemed kinda drunk, messing up a good...
So, er, Hello
Lately I’ve been making a lot of text posts, which isn’t what Tumblr is “for” but there’s nothing stopping me and reblogging people’s hilarious pictures makes me feel bad and I’m useless at finding mine own, so it’s just me and my words for now.
Yesterday my sister’s evil little rabbit Ralphie chewed through my router’s power cable so I...
Things I Don't Like
Dirty Projector’s gig next month cancelled.
Things I Like
The stuff Tumblr puts in e-mails when someone starts following you
In other news, I really need to change that shitty portrait photo of me. If I don’t find one where I look alive, I’ll have to have Batman kissing Robin.

I Tried To Post This Yesterday
But, y’know. Anyhow,yesterday evening I went to play tennis, only to find my the courts in my local park taken. Me and my friend - also called Matthew; yes, shit gets confusing at points - then went to another park…only to find all the courts there taken too.
So we gave up on tennis and instead decided to take a wander around the ruins of our old secondary (/high) school. Our school...

“No One Belongs Here More Than You.” by Miranda July
Well, read. I read a couple of short stories from it earlier in the week but finished off the bulk of them today. After finally getting through 2666 I wanted something to clear my palette and Miranda July’s sad/funny/affecting vignettes did just that. My initial reservations about it being for sexually confused 17-year-old...

Win Butler's New Hair
Hmm.
I think I may go for a walk
anyone is free to join me
Question:
Does having a nap between 8.30pm and 10.20pm constitute “sleep” for an evening and allow me to stay up all night playing Red Dead Redemption?

“I woke up early on my born day, I’m twenty years of blessing The essence of adolescent leaves my body now I’m fresh in My physical frame is celebrated cause I made it One quarter through life some God-ly like thing created”
I think I just explored grounds of fakeness never before seen, quoting Illmatic given the fact I’m a (lower-upper-(?))middle class university...

No.
(Unless you’ll stop following me as a result. In which I’ll get down on my hands and knees and beg for mercy.)
A List of Stuff I Never Did And Did Not Do...
Another long text post, sorry. But its you’re own fault for reading it. Anyhow, a few months ago my laptop died, which was shortly followed by my external hard-drive dying. Because of these twin fuck-ups, I lost a lot of files. Today I finally made time to hook up my old laptop (the screen doesn’t work but if you connect it to a monitor you can access all the files) to rescue some...

Here Is A Massively Long Post I Made On A Message...
An element which really interests me - and this follows somewhat from certain “chillwave” artists - is that is a true post-internet scene/fad (delete applicable). Not only would these bands not exist without myspace, they actually rebel against the “real world” by being so difficult to actually name. They attack the very convention of music of you being able to talk...
