Small Spaces, Wide Open Doors.
So for the past six years I've been cheating on the blog with social media. No fucking clue why. Maybe it's like the dating pool everybody's complaining about these days: a lot going on out there, but nothing really happening. I dunno. But I tried the twitters and Reddits and whatever else, and it's basically screaming into the void. I thought at first it'd be dope to connect with people out there, maybe find more people who shared my thought processes and vibe with, but that's never how I moved.
My life has been pretty simple: let me carve out my own little place to myself and basically stay there. I come and go as I please, and those invited are free to come and go as they please, but otherwise, I do my thing over here, while the rest of yall do your thing out there. I did think it would be nice to spend more time "out there", but each time I do, no matter what it is, I just end up feeling like its not worth the hassle. So what I've learned is that I like having my own little space. It's not the void where, at any given moment, anyone can hear you but most likely, no one will. I instead like intimate spaces. I prefer concerts in small clubs over shows in stadiums, a backyard kick back with one, two, or three good folks over a a crowded restaurant or bar scene, and a tiny little blog site over a giant social media algorithm.
