i’m listening to this weird sugar ray/rivers cuomo song, love is the answer. it’s like weezer for kids, kind of. i’m not sure how to characterize these strange collaborations.
i’m beginning to think more clearly at work.
what is the modern-day equivalent of speed dial when everybody you know fits in your phone, your twitter followers list, your facebook friends list, your buddy list? everybody is more accessible, yet everyone is further away than ever before. look at us, staring at our screens, even when we’re out, ostensibly together, apart in reality. there are days when i work late, and all communication i have with my friends is through screens–text messages, twitter, whatever.
the result is that i think out loud now, because i don’t have anyone to run my ideas by. it’s just like writing them down. some shit sounds real dumb when you hear it for the first time.
