All art is quite useless / satanic reptiles from outerspace! / 'cos I'm feeling so Bohemian like you



I painted Oscar Wilde! I did it for theatre. I haven’t painted in four years, and goddamn! It felt good! I forgot how relaxing painting can be (except, of course, when you mess up—UGH!). That relaxation was definitely what I needed to clear my head after a super strange couple of weeks topped off by an unbelievably (and quite unnecessary) stressful fall break. He’s not finished yet, but he doesn’t really need to be. Well, Oscar himself is—I don’t paint people because I don’t know how to.. I need to figure out what to do at the bottom, because if I just do it solid green in the bare spots it’ll look like crap. The flowers are from the artwork for SalomĂ© (one of his plays), so I might add more artwork from that or maybe paint it green and then do paisley with pen over it? I’ll be sure to show the finished product, unless it looks like utter crap. Ha.

-hahahaha oh my god. I know I'd call my cult 'the Bohemian Club'. My only reason for sharing this video is so that we can all collectively laugh at 'the Bohemian Club.' Hahahaha--

So what do you do?
Oh yeah I wait tables too.
No I haven't heard your band,
Cause you guys are pretty new.
But if you dig on Vegan food,
Well come over to my work,
I'll have them cook you something that you'll really love,

Cause I like you,
Yeah, I like you,
And I'm feeling so Bohemian like you,
Yeah, I like you,
Yeah, I like you,
And I feel wahoo, wooo


That cult is as fierce Courtney Taylor-Taylor.

Free Masons used to freak me out. Oscar Wilde was a Free Mason; so was Aleister Crowley.
