Closing
Monday. Matrix closing night with Ricky Le Roy, Franchino, Zicky and Kighine. Monday is a completely unreasonable night for this, which presumably is part of the attraction. School tomorrow exists....
There is a manner in which certain things ask to be written, not so that they may be found, but because to exist in silence, for too long, eventually becomes insufficient. It is not urgency. It is something closer to a necessity that makes no noise, waiting patiently until it discovers the proper form. This archive was born in such a way.
Not as a diary. Not as a blog. Not as something that is updated merely for the sake of appearing alive. It is a place where certain thoughts come to rest, those which do not dissolve, those which return, those which insist with the silent obstinacy of things that truly belong to you...

Saturday. Genova. Tia and I spent the afternoon out and somehow ended up talking about friendship itself, which is usually a sign you’re getting older or becoming unbearable. She asked...
Sunday. Mom claimed Mother’s Day is commercial nonsense and then looked genuinely pleased with what I gave her. Human beings should stop pretending wanting to be remembered is a moral...

Thursday. Liberation Day. No school. Slept late, went out with Yuri, came home for tea at five and four biscuits, then spent an hour changing the site and another hour...
Saturday. Ricky Le Roy and Franchino again and I am not bored, which is the point. A good night isn’t a checklist of new names. Sometimes you want people whose...
Saturday. Erick says all my party clothes are black and therefore interchangeable. This is why men should not be entrusted with civilisation. Different fabric. Different cut. Different neckline. Different trousers....
Sunday. Took the train to Genova this morning after sleeping so little that I briefly considered my ticket an advanced reading exercise. Dad met me, looked at my face and...
Saturday. Matrix. Ricky Le Roy and Franchino. There was a stretch tonight where I completely lost track of how long we’d been there. That is probably the highest compliment I...
Wednesday. I used to judge dance music primarily by what it did when it arrived. Now I’m interested in what happens before it arrives. Ricky Le Roy, Mario Più, Franchino,...
Why?
Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
