saturday // pretty loud

Read this slowly. Let the words arrive before you decide what they mean.

apparently a blonde girl in pale blue is still expected to have gentle musical opinions. unfortunate. #

Harder tonight. Somebody I barely know asked if I `”really”` listen to hardcore or just go because my friends do. I nearly asked him for an oral examination so I could receive my certification. Instead I named enough records and DJs that he changed the subject.

Why is this still surprising to people? I understand that subcultures develop visual codes, but surely after a while everybody has met one person who doesn’t dress like her record collection. Also, what exactly should I wear to prove I like hardcore? A warning label?

Remember me, Eclipse.

Why?

Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
