Figured that roughly once in a lifetime, I can make an LJ post that isn't fandom-centric. So, yesterday, I went to a Yehudit Ravitz concert. It was BADASS. I just wanted to share this song:
I have a complicated love/hate relationship with this country, but some parts of it are just heartbreakingly beautiful.

And I still intend to answer the pseudo-intellectual comment, I just need to formulate my opinion on a few things. You know how it gets exponentially (first I typo'd 'sexponentially', which is also interesting) harder to do something the more you put it off? IT APPLIES TO LJ COMMENTS TOO.

AHAHAHAHAHhahahahhahahahhahahhhhhhh. Yeah, no. One of my best friends is a serious Israeli-music-knowitall (he's actually more of a music know-it-all, but in a good way. He's not mean about it, he just knows e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It's insane.) who's been living in Israel and volunteering in a leprosy clinic for the past year. (Not the point. The point is, he was feeding his Israeli / Arabic music habit.) He puts me to serious shame when it comes to Idan Raichel. He's delivered lectures that I fell asleep halfway through. But! I would love some more links! I'll mention the songs to him and then get a free education, to boot!

Moar songs:
Another one by Yehudit Ravitz, about a woman involved in an affair with a married man. It's raw and beautiful.
And that's her biggest hit (with good reason!).
This is one of my favorite songs, by Yehuda Poliker. It's called 'Hurts but Less' (it sounds prettier in Hebrew, I promise!).
And that's just a timeless classic. :D
Eeep, yeah, two years is a lot. I'm not sure what to recommend, because I'm personaly terrible at writing to keep in touch (I find chat easier, if it's possible), so I'll just say good luck!

Seriously? I didn't know it was dead! It's been like, what, 7 years since I was last there? NOSTALGIA (I still feel deep shame for not knowing who Don Corleone was back in the day, let me tell you -- being 15 is no excuse!). I do my roleplaying on LJ now. How's the reboot going? :D

So it's fourteen years after the last post.
| still think of you a lot, and | miss talking and
writing with you, though | was such a stupid
kid then and there was so much about me
and the world | didn't know yet (because my
parents were forcibly isolating me to keep me
as a source of income, which | didnt realize
until years later).
| transitioned. | realized |m autistic. | have a
teenager. | bought a two-story house and
everything went wrong so | built a shrine in
the basement with a Money Pit poster and a
St. Tom Hanks candle and | thought you
would have thought it was funny.
| still write about those people, those places,
they show up in all my original work, I'm still
living in those worlds, those games, and the
world has so much of you and the others in it
that | feel like we built it together, but | am the
only one left there, and no one will ever come
again because no one can see it from the
outside.
It's a little projection around just me, like a VR
experience | don't get to take off.
Blame the autism ( ... )
