47 and 52
47. Did you have a dream last night?
i always have dreams.
(here are two, one from last night and one that last night’s called back to. in the first, i was out in a metal boat with two people, real people. saltwater came in on every wave even though i knew it was a lake in the way that in real life i know where my hands are. one of us searched desperately for some kind of signal, radio or cell, vague because in my dreams i know even less about physics. i and the other sat in the back of the boat, idly trying to bail it out or contemplating future feelings of sunburn and not thinking about how as soon as we escaped everything would be over. the three of us had, in the boat, reached some kind of understanding; the two of us understood, as the signal-seeker perhaps did not, that our rescue would prevent our deaths but also any chance of us maintaining our collective intent. the nature of this intent varied, but it was intensely emotional and possibly romantic and involved a highly complex network of social connections and a plan for the armed overthrow of a medium-scale political power.
in the second dream, i sat with i someone i love at a wooden table in a kitchen full of sunlight. my hands were on the table. there was a small vase full of violets. they leaned across the table– i turned my head to theirs– they gently but firmly put their thumb over my mouth and pushed.)
52. Is your life anything like it was two years ago?
in several obvious respects yes– still in college at same college, still a bio major, still a lot of the same creative projects. at this time two years ago i was just starting to push relationships into being that are most of the important ones i now have. i lived functionally alone and i was sad and lonely and messy and crazy and sick all the time; now i’m just messy and crazy. two years ago my job was undoable and inescapable and i prayed to be fired, or if i couldn’t get fired then perhaps to be hit by a train. last week i said to my boss “i’m very frustrated with my slow pace at work, i think i’m not getting enough done” and he said “well, you’re producing more than you think, but anytime you’re hitting these roadblocks you should let me know and i can come troubleshoot it with you,” exactly as though i’m a real person whose problems deserve to be solved. this time two years ago i hadn’t come up with a couple of my big life problems yet, but i had far more, and i wanted to die all the time, and that was very bad, and this is much better.
26 and 46. I’m gonna assume neither of those are the dumb ones. :|
don’t worry andy you made good choices
26. Who would you like to see in concert?
sufjan stevens is my last holdout in terms of artists i loved in high school and haven’t seen. definitely owen pallett or radiator hospital or janelle monae, possibly ok go, definitely brockhampton. i’m still mad that my parents went to the violent femmes without me. one of the most embarrassing facts i can imagine publicizing about myself is that i’d gladly and with enthusiasm go to a vampire weekend show, and i’d have a great time there.
as for repeaters i really want to see los camp again
46. If you had to delete one year of your life completely, which would it be?
as in like, none of the things in it happened or i just forget about it happening? i mean, either way i should obviously choose my junior year of high school, since i got like four different kinds of severely ill and/or abused and i kind of want my jaw joints and will to live back.

the title of this is apparently “tag nine people with excellent taste” which like. never let it be said i won’t succumb to flattery eventually @literalliterature
Colour(s): black, dark red, forest green, purple (radiant orchid, even, still), medium grey. i know this is criminally boring of me but bright colors are giving me the dysphorias or something rn so i’ll have to live with being disowned by all of my friends who know about color
Last band t-shirt I bought: mountain goats, “no haven safer than the one they tore down”
Last band I saw live: the mountain goats
Last song I listened to: “swans (life after death)”, islands
Last movie I watched: all but the last twenty minutes of jupiter ascending
Last three TV shows I watched: planet earth II, planet earth II, planet earth II, time isn’t real
Last 3 characters I identified with: hahaha christ. um. unfortunately all of my answers here are either real people or the first-person narrators of poems i read recently, which might also be real people. several cops, in a fanfic for a show i’ve never seen.
Book I’m currently reading: technically hume’s enquiry concerning human understanding but emotionally it’s still left hand of darkness, as it has been for like three consecutive months. oh also two anne carson books
tagging @raisedbyhyenas @harridanford @garden-ghoul @genghisrae and then after that i run out of steam but you know, whoever, i’m always excited to find out if other people know how to like or have opinions on things
what up, I’m jared
what’s your favourite book?
for sheer comfort i could say basically any diana wynne jones; anything more serious and i end up with poetry, so uh, louise glück’s the wild iris or possibly mei mei berssenbrugge’s hello the roses
as it turns out i don’t exactly read books.
sand guardian, welcome to chili’s, and they were roommates
is there anything you’d protect with your life?
[“please, is there anything i wouldn’t”]
several specific people, individually. a sufficiently large group of people generally.
favourite restaurant?
dim sum place from last night; the seafood restaurant in sf where i had one of the most awkward dinners of my life but also really excellent crab.
if you could live with anyone, who would it be?
god has already asked me this question and i have answered. (this sentence is my concession to sentiment.) no, really, though, i have you and the boy and i will keep you! for a calendar year i shall keep you. then our faerie pact is up and you are free to leave the forest of the silver eye.
anyway certain of you are aware that i have had expansive ludicrous living-with-people dreamspirations for a Significant Time, and while both the intent and the particulars have changed dramatically i still on some level absolutely guiltily do, so let me add some more people:
M, my childhood (literally K thru 12) best friend; N, who is– not my childhood best friend (listen. shut up); my mom for a value of “live with” that is “directly next door to” (well, really you can imagine all of this subdivided into distinct-but-adjoining space until it almost starts to make some sense); and uh– well actually everyone else is either erstwhile or more neighbor than housemate or else, uh, too embarrassing even for this space, including some people who i know from the internet, oops
