I'd love to read a good analysis of how the shoe hybrids that we have been seeing (sneakerinas and snoafers) are a sign of the times

Trying to wrap up the dissertation
December is for Proustmaxxing. Staying in your room. Sleeping by day, writing by night, yearning incessantly, overthinking every little thing, all whilst feeling rather ill.

Finally finished @LaurenElkin's Scaffolding after carrying it around in my handbag all summer, trying to savour every bit of it. So special to stumble in its final pages upon a Chris Kraus I Love Dick passage that struck me so deeply all those years ago

Thinking that the long-announced indie sleaze revival would work entirely in my favour, I now read that Charli XCX is bringing back Bon Iver -- a girl can't have no fun

Twee minuten Mia Doornaert over Gainsbourg op #deafspraak en meteen m'n voorraad gezucht voor de rest van het jaar opgebruikt. Gainsbourg is één van de cases in het onderzoek waarin ik het begrip persona in popmuziek herbekijk (en ik woon op 15 tramhaltes van de VRT, maar bon)

one of the things that fascinates me about taylor swift is how dead clothes look on her. she can be covered in sequins but fail to channel camp or glam, in a form-fitting black dress but fail to be sensual, dressed down and fail to look effortless https://t.co/Dyzez4R3ZN

This was the year Taylor Swift perfected her craft—not just with her music, but in her position as the master storyteller of the modern era.

everyone who's taken an autofiction class with me (+ everyone else) should read @mckenziewark @efluxcriticism autofiction reveal not only a critical perspective on self, but on the production of writing: follow autofiction, follow radical publishing https://t.co/qBTGnvpW4o
