I watch Harrison Patrick Smith approach, and I’m certain he’s pulling up to this too, but then he just keeps on walking down East Broadway. I spot Dean Kissick first, and I have this sudden thought that maybe the evening will run smoothly because nothing insane ever seems to happen when Dean is around, his presence typically indicates a relatively civil function, we shouldn’t have any trouble getting in. There’s a crowd gathering out front and I already recognize a bunch of familiar faces-from Beckett’s, from the De Vere Ball, those kinds of settings. Tai and I talk for a bit at Seward Park and then walk over to Sovereign House close by on East Broadway. The two other readers are familiar downtown scene personalities: Jordan Castro, author of The Novelist: A Novel and former editor of New York Tyrant Magazine and Matthew Davis, another autofictionist on the dissident right poetry reading circuit and Dasha Nekrasova’s boyfriend. There’s definitely going to be a lot of bigshots there tonight, so a lot of people are going to be watching us very closely and suspiciously. Peter Vack is starring in a project to adapt a Delicious Tacos story to film, it’ll be directed by Asher Penn, founder of Sex Magazine, with a soundtrack by Negative XP (musician who also used to go by the stage name “School Shooter”). His brand of misogyny has an air of sophistication about it, and all the downtown cool kids love his work. Delicious Tacos is from LA and he fits the genre of “incel literature,” kinda like Chateau Heartiste with some Houellebecq thrown in. He’s been on my radar for a while, from my pre-NYC era. The big headliner for this event is a writer who goes by the pen name “Delicious Tacos,” and I want to meet him. I’m briefing Tai on the mission for tonight. Anyway, this will be my first time at Sovereign House, which I’ve previously been told will be “the new Beckett’s,” but more luxe and legitimate. But Tai’s back now at a good time, for our purposes-in the span of a week there’s this “Monsters of Alt Lit” event, and then there’s the angelicism film01 screening, and then the Praxis Society (venture capitalists trying to reverse the decline of the west by building a Mediterranean Dubai for “based” expats) has a week of parties called “Little Praxis” (some of them at Sovereign House) that seems a bit like a repeat of last year’s Urbit Week. I’ve had a sort of internal vacation of my own out in Brooklyn, lindywalking around Crown Heights, listening to Bob Dylan, editing the manuscript of Caroline Calloway’s upcoming book SCAMMER (more on that to come in future posts). I haven’t even been to Manhattan since the opening of that angelicist portrait exhibit at No Gallery.
She hasn’t really missed much scene drama in the past month.
I can’t think of a better way to welcome her back to the Big Apple. It’s the first day Tai is back in New York after a month on the west coast and I’m catching up with her at Seward Park a few hours before we plan to see “The Monsters of Alt Lit” do a reading at the new VC-backed Dimes Square event space called Sovereign House. The singer is left feeling confused and uncertain about his own feelings towards the girl, making it a relatable song for anyone who has experienced similar relationship struggles.Still from video uploaded by Delicious Tacos “Dasha smacks Mike Crumplar at the reading”
It highlights the difficulties of trying to navigate someone else's moods and emotions when they seem to be constantly shifting. Overall, "Mixed Personalities" is a song that delves into the complex and emotionally turbulent nature of relationships. He is tired of the chaos that comes with trying to understand this girl who switches between multiple personalities. The chorus of the song suggests that the singer is looking for someone who will consistently love, kiss, and hug him without any emotional instability. He also admits to hating her at times but still finding himself drawn to her in the form of singing "melodies". This constant unpredictability is taking a toll on the singer's mental state, causing him to feel both happy and miserable simultaneously. The girl in question is described as having "mixed personalities", with her moods switching rapidly between happiness and anger. The lyrics suggest that he is struggling to understand her and is experiencing a range of emotions as a result. "Mixed Personalities" is a song by Negative XP that explores the singer's confusion and frustration over a girl who seems to have multiple, conflicting personalities.
