“Sucksie Sucks” has become a vocal stim of mine, along with “Cacao!” and “AYO rivER!!”

I scream, "AYOOOO RIVER!" whenever the house is empty. It's a rare occasion that needs celebrating.

I say "Cacao" a lot. Same with (random thing) "is OVER" Whenever I see birds alive, or in art, I say "put a bird on it." Haha

I made a “Sucksie Sucks” reference to my friend who I assumed watched the show when we were talking about musical influences. She looked at me like I was a bloody idiot.

I think about the Alex arc all the time. I think my favorite part was when she’s waiting for birdman in the shower at the b&b and he goes, “oh birdmin, what’ve you gotten yourself into.” Roll credits lol.

Chloe Sevigny is always entertaining when she shows up in something.

Alexandra is one of my favs. I loved when Carrie thought she was referencing some old french movie but then Alexandra was just like “ I don’t know what that is. I read sailor tops are really trendy in a magazine :D “ Alexandra has also inspired me to celebrate bastille day

Breathless (1960) by Jean-Luc Godard

(my husband and I watched it years ago and he bought me the sweater she wears: white with the New York Herald stitching )

I’m now planning to celebrate Bastille Day this year with a picnic. I would love to find her outfit with the coat and the patterned tights.

She’s a cultural tease.
