Bleeds comes out next month can u believe it
We released “Bitter Everyday” this month with this epic ass video by our boy Ben Turok.
I don’t normally read comments on the videos but Ben texted me being like “damn people are being crazy on there” and I guess I have thick skin by this point cause I was like “this is a very normal comment section, videos with women on youtube.com have insane comment sections”.
I identify so much with this comment specifically on it <3 for some reason it makes me proud that I know such a beautiful boatful of skanks !!! I realize this was intended as a negative comment but i’m just kinda like “okay so ur sayin we hot”
got sent this fan made controversy video title card. I think the actual video is about Wednesday TV show
I’m obsessed with this

August was a big month of like doing a lot of behind the scenes PR stuff… I did a trip to London and NYC for some solo sets and interviews and radio stuff and photoshoots la di da la di da. It was my first time doing a trip solely for that sort of thing.
I think I’m healing my relationship with London… I have had a couple nightmare days and nights there but this time I rode bikes around a bunch and ate a tonnnnn of amazing food. I only fell on the bike like almost one time.

I gave myself a rule that I’m only allowed to get tattoos when I’m out of town, so of course i got a couple on my trip. Bitch got her first neck tatt from Zau (@street_microwave) in London! New Language, the tattoo studio they work out of was possibly the sweetest environment I’ve ever gotten somethin done at. Definitely gonna go back next time i’m in town.
I also got a incred blast over on my arm by my fave @hel.heart in NYC, but it aint quite healed up yet so I’ll haveta put up a pic of it later <3
my mom took this pick of an owl on my dads car the otha night
I also got some clothes for the first time in a while cuz u know the big cities got all the crazy shopping spots, especially for the small designers I love to support
I got this Caro Chia shirt in black from Cafe Forgot in NYC <3 I’m deeply obsessed with this brand now…. I feel like all their shit is mad wearable but also the designs are all special !! I definitely want more from them.
Last but not least I got this archived 2011 Junya Wantanabe dress at Nordic Poetry in London. It is so gorgeous I can’t believe I own it. Luckily this purchase was fully reimbursed by the airline who lost my luggage for two days… leaving me without anything to wear to the show at Rough trade show I did. I got it also intending to wear it to a friends wedding next year <3
Here’s a lil book haul for the month!
Most of this is stuff I picked up with my friend Michael while we were browsing a book store togetha. I’ve been trying to get recommendations from friends mostly for my book buying (instead of the internet) and he helped me find lots-o-gold.
He found me copies of Denis Johnson’s “Train Dreams”, Joy Williams’ “The Changeling”, Alfred Hayes’ “My Face For The World to See”, Rachel Ingalls’ “Mrs. Caliban”, Carson McCullers’ “The Member of the Wedding” and “Novels in Three Lines” by Felix Feneon (which I’ve been tearing through since I got home).
I picked up Creation Lake at a bookstore in London, and I also ordered a copy of Larry Brown’s “Dirty Work” on thriftbooks for myself.
I think that’s about it for me here this month… I did a bunch of stuff I didn’t talk about here but there’ll be clips in the monthly video
Excited for ya’ll to hear the whole ass thing
I’ll catch up w you when I’m around
I got this incredible Jersey Shore printed tee at one of my fave stores in NYC: Venus in Tokyo <3 I’ve wanted a piece by this designer (made of glue) there for a while, I love their printed basketball shorts too. I’m gonna wear the shit out of this.
Picked up a few classics at Rough Trade after filming their “Shoplifting” segment where I pick out a bunch of records from the store. I didn’t realize you didn’t get to keep the records when you do that though so in my mind I was about to leave with 10 bangin records, instead I just bought these two! All the ones i suggest in the video (whenever it comes out) are sick though
Big cities also usually allow me access to the smelling ability… the ability to smell good smells…. at the fancy stores… where they sell fancy perfumes!
The ones I loved the best were :
Smoke by Perfumer H - this bitch is expensive… I might buy a lil sample size for a couple bucks to use on special occasions though cause I ADORE the smell.
Just the description makes me woozy!
“The smell of the air after burning wood is fused with damp earth, wild herbs and clean spices to create a masterfully unique amber. Fragrance notes: Coriander seed, angelica grain, rose, camomile, frankincense, agar wood, sandalwood and birch tar”
I also got to smell some Regime Des Fleurs perfumes! My faves are Leather Petals (Patchouli, Artemisia, Davana, Osmanthus) and Fleur Eclair (Cocoa Butter, Jasmine, Patchouli, Blond Woods). I ordered tiny sample viles of both and I’ve been wearing the shit out of them.
Honestly all of these perfumes are wintry and very similar to Bibliotheque by Byredo which is the only full bottle of perfume I have ever purchased. I like smelling warm and wintry at all times of year honestly, I’m not a huge fan of floral springtime scents, I wanna smell like an old book all year round.
This has been a long tangent… hehe
