When I was 19, I spent a week in a mental hospital where I got properly diagnosed as #bipolar and properly disabused of the notion that there is any romance in destruction. open.substack.com/pub/brettgle...

I released “Sensory Deprived” today -
A dark, cathartic track about the dissociation of living in a world that demands an immediate response,
(while also teaching us not to trust our intuition)
No answers, just feelings -
Really happy with how this how this came out 🖤 ffm.to/brettgleason...

The other app is filled with people furious over short clips of Chappell Roan:
The ultimate cultural divider.
People say she needs media training but I think she’s brilliant,
everything she says gets talked about while she seems to barely care/try

I love myself so much
that I’m going to keep creating
music from my heart
and releasing it out in the world
even if no one cares.

I love it so much! Every Roald Dahl movie needs an adult version, tbh I wonder if some of them could even be made today - the original Matilda, witches…some dark shit
