Eu sempre quis ser um loser.
É bem deprimente que minha vida esteja de certa forma dando certo.
Eu não sei lidar com isso, eu não quero lidar com isso.
Eu nunca entendi bem a cultura da vitória, ainda mais o quanto ela é vazia hoje em dia.
Gente vitoriosa sempre pareceu pra mim os maiores perdedores.
E os maiores perdedores sempre pareceram as pessoas mais bonitas e interessantes.
O que há de interessante em uma pessoa vitoriosa? Ela é nojenta e vazia.
Pessoas que se deram bem geralmente são o tipo de pessoa tão vazias e tediosas que de fato tiveram tempo, paciência e solidão o bastante para darem certo.
Eu me incomodo com o fato de ser o tipo de gente que ao invés de estar produzindo, está dando certo.
De repente eu começo a perceber porque instintivamente escolhi ser feio e estranho em primeiro lugar.
Basicamente porque é interessante. Eu odeio não ser interessante mais, eu me sinto vazio e sinto que não tenho mais nada a oferecer pra ninguém.
A vida está um bocado mais sem graça do que costumava ser e infinitamente mais sem graça do que deveria.ser.
Eu quero ser uma pessoa interessante de novo. Ou pela primeira vez.
Acho que eu costumava ter algo a dizer pras pessoas e agora não tenho mais ou simplesmente tenho a impressão que ninguém se importa demais ou ninguém quer saber.
Um daqueles paradoxos divertidos da era da internet, onde temos um lugar particular que desenvolvemos para ficar sozinhos enquanto nos expomos voluntariamente para todo tipo de gente estranha e má que queira ver.

Algumas pessoas gostam de pensar em si próprias como "jogadoras" ou como o tipo que "se arrisca" enquanto tudo que fazem é serem bem comportadas profissionais, o que é criminoso para alguém que lê quadrinhos.
Mas a gente perdoa auto-ajuda quando parte dos mais desesperados.

Ele olhou para ela e teve a certeza que nunca amou tão pouco uma pessoa.
Algo sobre uma certa garagem.
Segunda edição do Garagem Hermética está pra sair e nele estará uma história minha desenhada pelo Cunha
--
Nele está o prológo de nossa nova "mini-série" chamada Eterno.
--
Então, algo sobre Eterno.
Eterno é uma pontinha de um iceberg que eu tenho a dizer sobre a relação entre homem e Deus.
É também sobre a importância da nossa vida e exatamente o que faz ela ser importante.
É sobre querer estar além do mundo, além da pequenez da vida e ao mesmo tempo dentro de uma caixinha menor ainda que é tão enorme vista de dentro que são nossas vidas particulares.
Eterno tem suas habituais referências a cultura pop, sua filosofia de boteco, suas ingenuidades amorosas e a crença de que existe alguém em algum lugar do universo que é mais importante que o universo em si.
--
Tem algo sobre criador e criatura também. Algo sobre seres perfeitos que decidem os rumos do universo.
--
Enfim, no que o projeto for se aproximando, eu dou detalhes menos abstratos.

Algo sobre nossas vidas.
Run and hide, sunday girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Um argumento em favor da masturbação.
Ficção é sempre mais apaixonante que a realidade.
Lixo empilhado em um canto
Ele saiu do metrô e o vento frio batia em sua cara trazendo em si um cheiro que confirmava que o tempo hoje estava para assassinato.

E é pra escrever coisas desse tipo que eu quero entrar no ramo
http://www.nme.com/reviews/nirvana/8110
Eu sei o quão manjado é tudo isso, mas algumas resenhas são tão boas que parecem uma obra em si próprias.
Nirvana: Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! Vs Foo Fighters: Live In Hyde Park/Skin And Bones
NME rating: 9/10
Kurt and Dave go head-to-head in the battle for your Christmas cash
Talking to Jonathan Ross the other week, Courtney Love recalled her surprise at being defined by the man she was married to, despite having forged a successful career in her own right. He'd boil his own head before admitting it, but Dave Grohl must feel a bit the same. OK, so it's kind of tasteless to compare Foo Fighters to Nirvana these days, but we're only even going there because the bands' live DVDs are vying for your Christmas vouchers and therefore we kind of have to.
A Kurt-sized hole in the world is one big void to fill, and with every year that passes, it only seems to get bigger. More than a man, Kurt Cobain has become an idea, or should that be an ideal? He's the closest thing our rock'n'roll society has to a god and, despite Dave having piloted an international super-band for a decade with no little talent of his own, deep down the reason we always pay attention to Foo Fighters is because Dave is one of our few remaining organic links to Kurt.
The Foos' DVD bundle just goes to show how far Grohl has come. Skin And Bones - the acoustic show recorded live in Los Angeles in front of Dave's friends - is pleasant enough, but the main event is this summer's Hyde Park mega-gig. As Grohl goofs midway through, even if the 60,000 site had only half sold-out, it would still have been the biggest Foo Fighters show ever. As it was, it became one of the few truly memorable dates on this summer's crowded calendar - the moment when they passed some sort of watermark and began to feel like a truly important rock band. Or at least, that's what it felt like on the day. In replay, the set's heavy reliance on the blustery rock side of 'In Your Honour' means things don't really inflate until two-thirds of the way through, when you get to the trusty likes of 'My Hero', 'Generator' and 'Monkey Wrench' (Foos nostalgia? Really?). But the reliance on Special Guest Rock Legends to keep the thrills coming - Lemmy on 'Shake Your Blood' and the Queen survivors on 'Tie Your Mother Down' - show just how orthodox an operation they've become. As grunge's Paul McCartney, Dave is having the last laugh, but sometimes that's a long way from punk rock.
In contrast, Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! was probably the last Nirvana project Kurt worked on, issued just months after his death, at the same time as Unplugged In New York. Conceived by Kurt and completed by Dave and Krist after he died, it's intended as a live documentary history, with all kinds of performances and behind-the-scenes footage. Already a museum piece to those of us just a maddening few months too young to ever have seen them live, this was the closest a lot of us got to seeing the real thing, and considering the lack of a definitive Nirvana concert film, it's weird that it's taken this long to get a DVD airing. But that's part of what makes it so fantastic. It's precisely because Kurt Cobain has now ascended to an idea, that to see him as a mere rock star, playing and talking as a mortal human being, gives the whole thing an air of pilgrimage. It's only the TV footage that dates the thing... 'Territorial Pissings' to a bemused Jonathan Ross (him again), or the Top Of The Pops where the band lampooned having to mime their instruments - Kurt changing the words of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' to 'Load up on drugs, kill your friends'. Even when they weren't plugged in they were irresistible.
The other thing you wouldn't get in this age of advertorial promo packages is the band portrayed with warts and all. Kurt must have selected a lot of this footage, and his outburst at a dim-but-well-meaning European interviewer is as off-message to Kurt The Saint as Grohl's petulant dismissal of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' elsewhere is for the Most Crowd-Pleasing Man In Rock. More remarkable is the footage of 'Love Buzz', where an altercation with a bouncer ends with Kurt bashing him on the head with his guitar. But all that is window dressing - there's simply more amazing music on Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! than we're really used to. So we get Nirvana as they should have been experienced: a raw, visceral, devastatingly sexy way of life. We get 'Dive' and 'Breed' and 'Lithium' and 'Drain You' and 'Polly' and 'Sliver' and 'On A Plain'. And then, as we approach the end, we get some primitive quick-editing, some sound distortion, some clips played over and over again - ever more blinding. And then it just ends, before anyone gets the chance to get hurt again. And we get a band whose like we can only hope to see again. Whichever god you choose to believe in.

Por outro lado, acho que é difícil ver qualquer pessoa séria falar sobre o Kurt.
Claro, a gente vê as adolescentes chorando dizendo que amam ele, mas acho impossível não se sentir um pouco down quando alguém para e fala "ok, vamos falar sobre Kurt Cobain um minuto"
