February 2025

Hello Wedheads,

February has been a very strange and important month. I have spent soooooo much time alone. I have been working on some creative projects that I have been after the motivation to make for years. Finally rested enough to really focus on them. (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) There is a lot I am excited about (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)

A few events of this month had left me feeling very exposed and uncomfortable with the state of my life... actually more just the public’s access to the state of my life. But I’ve processed a lot and I’m feeling good!

Some Wednesday band related news: Jake (You know him as MJ Lenderman) won’t be touring with us on lead guitar this album cycle. The man needs some rest. Or other friend (also named Jake) will be filling in. Everything is cool, I feel like this news was heavily dramatized for clicks on the music journalism sites. I get it… get your bag but damn also think about the people you’re talking about. Woof. No plans for me to go solo. Xandy, Alan and Ethan are still touring with Wednesday. That’s the transmission on that front for now.

I am continuing to love my tiny dumb phone and being off socials!!!!! More deets about it in last months post. It has really really changed my brain and has lessened a lot of my exhaustion from over stimulation.

Now for some faves:

My favorite tshirts this month are this Roman Dirge “You Smell Like Dookie” shirt and this thrashed Bart shirt I got in Japan. My Roman Dirge obsession really popped of this month. I’m reading his comics, and other collections, and now obviously I’m also investing in his tshirts. Roman… if you’re reading this out there…. lets do a merch collab id literally die.

Really haven’t been buying a ton of clothes this month which feels good.

Got some new things in the tech realm too. Got an Ipod classic modded with 1TB memory… tryna git all my bandcamp purchased mp3s on there and just keep it always plugged in ready to play out of my stereo.

I got a lil mouse to use to make some shit I’m working on on my computer more fun. It has a little penguin floating in some water on the bottom.

Also got this lil receipt camera. It creates prints instantly on heat sensitive receipt paper. Both the camera and the “film” are cheap af and the pictures look sick. Just google “receipt camera” and youll find it

this is what the photos look like <3

I made a switch from my big ass wallet to this little tin thing

It fits in my pocket and my previous wallet did not so thats been really sick

speaking of tins: I recently got this altoids tin pill box on etsy.

Size is perfect for traveling, it’s inconspicuous as fuck, and it smells minty :)

Last but not least I got this buffy poster on ebay to fill a gigantic space on my bedroom wall. She watches over me <3

General January 2025

The biggest most life altering fave I aquired this month is my transition from an iPhone to a slightly dumber and tiny tiny phone called the Unihertz Jelly Star <3 It has everything I need which made he switch a little less shocking. It’s got google maps, music streaming, a back and front facing camera and payments (so I can pay for trains and venmo ppl when I travel etc.) I’m not downloading any social apps on it at the moment other than youtube and tumblr.

It has incredibly reduced my screen time and made using social media not nearly as enjoyable/endorphin releasing. Hoping to avoid socials altogether and just read blogs and non-algorithm based stuff from now on! So far I am LOVING it and highly suggest.

People do get annoyed when you turn their group messages green, but honestly not being in 50000000 group messages has reduced my stress incredibly. I usually had anywhere from 100-300 unread messages on average.

so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here’s a link to where I got it if you’re interested! They also have a quiz on this site for what dumb phone would work for you/your wireless plan etc. I literally cannot suggest it enough.

I got the blue one <3

Been making the move to physical media over from streaming in general recently which has led to me adding many more VHS/DVDs/CDs and vinyls. Been really nice to dig for stuff out in public and look for steals. Makes listening/watching a much more enjoyable experience so far! Plus supporting local biz always feels really good.

Been shopping at Soul Relief and Buffalo Boogie (both in Greensboro) for music and Acme Comics downtown (Greensboro) and Mckays (Mebane) for movies and TV box sets.

Here’s a haul from January:

FINALLY watching Charmed (as a dedicated Buffy fan it’s very strange it has taken me this long) after picking up season one DVDs. I’m in episode 5?? So far incredible… loving it… everything I imagined and more.

Also got me a copy of Let The Right One In (2008) which is one of my 10/10s for sure. The little boy in this movie has been one of my fashion icons for years at this point. A highly functional dresser who does LOTS of outfit repeating (sustainable king)

I’ve never seen Social Misfits, bought it just from the cover. Ill watch and review in February’s run down.

Brick is a movie I watched with Jake a million years ago and completely forgot about which made me due for a rewatch. Baby Joseph Gordon Levitt.

Also got Heavy Metal Parking lot on VHS at Acme Comics in downtown Greensboro. A classic artifact!!!

I got a double feature of Ring and Ring 2 which I’ve never seen. I’ve seen the original Japanese version though.

Also got Texas Chainsaw after watching this review of Resident Evil 7

I am fucking obsessed with the way his guy edits himself into the games with a green screen

On to fave clothes of the month!!! I was in Japan (the best place for shopping of all time) and picked up a few things I’m in LOVE with

The “pussy” tank is so iconic… I got it as well so I can use it as a pattern make more shirts in this shape myself if I thrift some collared shirts. Its by the brand Mowalola and it’s still for sale I believe ! I got it at The Four-Eyed in Shinjuku. The stores website is reeeeeally cool! They sell all small independent designers.

The pink cashmere sweater is actually just from Freedom House Thrift in Greensboro… you know I got that shit so i feel like whats her name in “Paris, Texas”

The yellow sweatshirt I got at a random flea market I came across in Sagenjaya, Tokyo<3 It is American vintage…. so goofy to export it over here then just bring it right back. I also got these patches at Oi Raceway flea which I added to the sweatshirt <3

If anyone knows more historical info on these lmk in the contact box on my site!! I know they’re from Vietnam. Unsure of the time period.

I bought an expensive perfume for the first time in Japan…. a scent I loved so much I just couldn’t be away from it. I plan on only having one scent for cold months and one scent for warm months to keep consumption in check. Which I def gotta do with perfume because that is an expensive fucking hobby. This is the one I got :) Definitely only the kind of purchase you make once every couple of years. I’ve been using it most days for the last month and it hasn’t made a noticeable dent even slightly in the bottle.

The notes are:

Top: Plum, Cinnamon

Heart: Leather Accord, Violet

Base: Birch Woods, Patchouli, Vanilla

Alright bitches that’s all for now I think! byeee!!!
