Longing for an irretrievable beach paradise ✔
Yearning for an abandoned tower to hide in ✔
(Failing to) deal with aging by building a
hot transcendent yoga body ✔
Loving convenience in spite of yourself ✔
A manifesto against self-optimization ✔
A blasé satanic cosmogony ?
An elegy for desire ✔
A meditation on death ?
A bisexual epic ✔
An unrelenting affirmation that this world is all there is ✔
Cold brew, yoga, spritzes, consumer culture, the internet, queerness. So funny and real and sparkly.
