My entire approach to life, unexpectedly summed up in an 80s film I just watched.

“I love you. Not…not like they told you love is. And I didn’t know this either. But love don’t make things nice. It ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren’t here to make things perfect. Snowflakes are perfect. Stars are perfect. Not us. Not us. We are here to ruin ourselves, and to break our hearts, and love the wrong people, and die. I mean, the storybooks are bullshit. Now. I want you to come upstairs with me, and–and get in my bed.”

-Ronnie Cammaroni

In other news, it seems every resident of my city is collectively raising a middle finger to the corrupt, unnecessary, retarded, irrelevant-to-Canada FIFA World Cup. Very nice. Promising. Maybe we’ll finally put down our black mirrors and do something about anything. Eventually.

I’m leaving you with a song that’s been propping me up lately. RIP, Shane. I’ll see you in the next 10-15 years, probably:

    the World Cup soccer thing bothers me too. I love sports, and the sport, but FIFA is organized crime. Everyone is comparing to the winter olympics or expo even, but unlike those two events the World Cup will have no long lasting after effect other than debt.

      Completely agree. This is a farce. An expensive, unneeded farce. It isn’t even gathering this city together in a positive way, like the two events you mentioned; it is creating even more resentment in a place where…we just don’t need any more.
