my bf enforced a writing routine where we write for 30 minutes as soon as we wake up, before coffee. Then we share beats with each other + the awful parts we had to push through to keep going. We’re on day 6 and it’s radicalized me. So much avoiding before this. I love this man

when I was 25 I sat on the bedroom floor of my friend who was in the deepest throes of horrific boyfriend-induced depression. She was a famous, rich, successful, beautiful, young artist who lived by herself right in front of the beach, but was deeply isolated and lost. I’d just been on acid for the first time with a boy who told me I was empty inside. One night we decided to write on paper the qualities of our future big loves, super specific traits. We’d read them aloud to each other, close our eyes and flood our bodies with their essence. She then started making art of butterflies; they became her obsession and symbol. She did this for years and they would be huge sculptural installations that would tour all the hippie festivals for people to dance in front of. Four years later she me borrow a big glow in the dark one for a party I threw, and that night walked in the man that would possess every single quality I asked for when I was just a girl who had driven to the beach to console my sad friend

The real story of Mad Men is about the 6'5 finance INTJ man and his never-ending search for the Platonic Art Hoe. She's unattainable, a fugazi, a fleeting illusion. The Art Hoe is not meant to be possessed but an epiphany. A mystical ascent narrative, his yearning is a yoga.

a few years ago I found out my grandpa has stacks of printed books of our ancestral lineage going back 2000 years. The oldest ancestor we know of was sima qian, a court scribe shaman historian writer dude who was obsessed with documenting people. He was the first to document Lao Tzu in his magnum opus, the Shiji. My grandpa has also kept journals his entire life, was persecuted by the communists for doing so as a young man, but continued writing well into his 70s. I can’t tell you how earth shattering it was to find this all out, at a pivotal point for me as I was starting to make documentaries; even thinking about it now makes me want to cry. So many questions of who we are are answered in the lives of our ancestors
