"I’ve never used the Internet for anything other than email and Word documents; the Internet has not dominated my life in any way. I don’t have Facebook, Twitter, any of it. I don’t even have a smartphone. I write music, I record, I tour, I deposit checks. Fuck everything else."

20 år efter internettet blev mainstream, har Pitchfork spurgt en række musikere om deres forhold til nettet. Herover er det Mark Kozeleks gode svar.

"It’s gone way too far. Saturday and Sunday mornings in New York’s West Village, where I have lived for nearly 20 years, used to bring an almost pastoral calm. Now they’re characterized by the brunch-industrial complex rumbling to life. By late morning, crowds of brunchers — often hung over and proudly bedraggled — begin to assemble, eager to order from rote menus featuring some variation of mimosas and eggs Benedict."

Død over brunch.

"There are more than forty thousand Chinese restaurants across the country—nearly three times the number of McDonald’s outlets. The restaurants, connected by Chinese-run bus companies to New York, Chicago, and San Francisco, make up an underground network—supported by employment agencies, immigrant hostels, and expensive asylum lawyers—that reaches back to villages and cities in China, which are being abandoned for an ideal of American life that is not quite real."

"The human mind is not meant to resemble a postcard from paradise forever fixed in a state of tropical bliss. It’s a vast and perplexing wonderland whose entire topography can change in an instant."

"Waiting for your midlife crisis? Relax. It’s probably not coming. According to a growing body of research, midlife upheavals are more fiction than fact."

“In-N-Out Burger is a great hamburger. I remember being in Las Vegas once and for some reason the ride that they give you is a 91-foot limousine, and I said to the [driver], ‘In-N-Out Burger?’ He could barely get this thing through the drive-thru, and while he was in the parking lot trying to get this thing in, I just hopped out and went in. And I tipped him in In-N-Out coupons. It’s a great burger. They do a great job with it. The French fries are made out of real potatoes, the burger is great and you can get it all kinds of ways, and it tastes good. It’s definitely the best franchise burger by a million miles. There’s no comparison. I mean, it’s not even close.”

Ja jeg ved ikke med dig, men sidste vinter besluttede jeg mig for ikke at fryse, hvilket betød masser af fleece, Primaloft, Polartec og dun. Og jeg synes at Patagonias nye Nano-Air ser virkelig attraktiv ud.

Det var alt for i dag. Husk for saaaadan at tage i skoven, den er smukkere end nogensinde. Og husk at det er ok at lade din mobil ligge derhjemme. Du har været der, selvom du ikke har fotograferet det.

Peace.
