My Carcosa

“At 13, The Cure‘s ‘Pictures of You’ hit me hard—it captured heartbreak I felt but was afraid to show. I’ve learned to be more okay with emotions since then, but this song still wrecks me. I made something with it that I hope brings you comfort. You’re not alone in despair.”

Our minds dynamically reconfigure their structure and behavior to adapt to the perceived threats and rewards of the environment.

Today I am 48.

Remembering a long lost friend who made things seem possible for a nerdy teenage fanboy.
