bands based built careers good half high kid life magic relationships time town
There were no good bands in my town. You know, there's like this magic town where every kid started a band in high school, and half of them were good and have careers based on relationships built at that time? That wasn't what my life was like at all.
anybody liked maybe outside totally twelve
When I was twelve or thirteen, if you liked something that was outside of your friend group genre, you had to rationalize and explain it in some way. It's totally irrelevant, I think, now. I don't think anybody cares. Not young people, at least. Maybe journalists.
certain fan indie music pop prospect type
There's a certain type of indie fan who would balk at the prospect of there being value in pop music, but I think that's foolish. They're not really listening.
funny
I'd rather proliferate funny little rumors than not.
amorphous films flesh objects work
I like Cronenberg's early work; his '80s films had all these weird, amorphous flesh objects in them.
clinical degree mom type wonders
My mom is the type of mom who wonders why I haven't used my psychology degree to become a successful clinical psychologist.
bit funny journalist
I don't think I'm an intentional liar, but I'm a little bit of an exaggerator sometimes. If I'm exaggerating, and the journalist exaggerates on top of that, then we end up in funny territory.

There's a real existential anxiety at having to exist not just in a generalised social framework, but a capitalist social framework.
anxiety chronic disorder realized recently
I always thought I was depressive, and I only recently realized that I have more of an anxiety disorder than chronic depression.
definitely woody
I definitely have a little Woody Allen inside of me. That is true.
since
I feel like since I was 27, I was calling myself 30. And then, when it happened, it was like, 'I'm finally here now. This is it.
politics though
Katy Perry's politics I could probably do without, though I have friends who have interacted with her that say she's very nice.
constant existing innate within
There's a constant anxiety that comes from having an innate sense of self, yet existing within a homogenised, aspirational culture.
