People always have these debates about who their favourite rapper is. And I think it's based upon what mood that particular person is in.

"Oh, he's my favourite rapper". No, his subject matter is your favourite.
I was interested in the ways we can write biography. When you're first starting to write about your own life it feels so shapeless because you don't know how to make your own story cohesive. How do I pluck a story out of the entirety of what it means to be alive. It occurred to me recently that when you're telling a story about your own life, rather than taking a chunk, you're kinda like lifting a thread from a loom.

Every aspect of a story has its own story.
I don't really know much about pirates, or pirate culture. I'd be a contrarian pirate.
I don't like it when people ask me what my favourite Beatles song is. I always get that. First of all, I don't like having to pick a favourite thing anyway. You can't pick a favourite Beatles song! What about "Strawberry Fields"? What about "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds"? What about "Tomorrow Never Knows"? Come on. That question is small minded to think you could even have a favourite Beatles song.
It's all about synthesis, you don't have to be a real musician. You just synthesize your own reality, synthesize your own talents. Welcome to the electronic age.

We are what we have been told about ourselves. We are the sum of the messages we have received. The true messages. The false messages.
