Lonesome
"What we have here is a dreamer. Someone completely out of touch with reality. "
-the virgin suicides
So now I have started living my own life. Imperfect and clumsy as it may look, it is resembling me now, thoroughly.

Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. An intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you’ll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want, and not let the cattle stand in your way.

“I’m standin’ here. You make the move.            You make the move.            It’s your move.            Don’t try it, you fuck.            You touchin’ my nuts?            You touchin’ my nuts?  You touchin’ my nuts?  Then who the hell else’s nuts you touchin’?  You touchin’ my nuts?  Well, they’re the only ones here.  Whose nuts do the fuck you think you’re touchin’?”

You’re going to lose weight and buy a closet full of new clothes and whiten your teeth and cut your hair and move to a great apartment in a different city and make new cooler friends. And you’re still going to be unhappy.

Bad Girls série by Bahar Sabzevari from Robert Adanto’s new documentary Pearls on the Ocean Floor (video)

Pearls on the Ocean Floor is a thought-provoking documentary that examines the lives and works of Iranian female artists living and working in and outside the Islamic Republic. This unflinching and incisive study, featuring interviews with art luminaries Shadi Ghadirian, Shirin Neshat, Parastou Forouhar, Gohar Dashti (video) and others, captures the uncertainty of this momentous time in Iran’s history. Speaking with grace and honesty, these brave women express what is seldom seen in the western media: unique individual perspectives regarding issues of identity, gender, and the role that art plays in challenging the traditional stereotypes often associated with women in Iran. - Steve Nalepa
