Digging through the archives. “You’re Done”(2010). Performed 01/22/20. #cathartsis #originalmusic

Digging through the archives. #cathartsis #originalmusic #lifeisperformanceart “You’re Done”(2010). Performed at the opening reception of “Pretty Dead Things”, January 22, 2020. Every song is a story and every song has a story. (And, I am a cautionary tale.) On a dreary November Toosday in 2010, I sat in an SLAA Women’s discussion meeting where we got really honest about the “payoffs” of our “relationship patterns”. Why would we keep dating the same kinds of assholes? It didn’t matter what the “offense”, there was one “payoff” that was common to us all: having someone to blame for our hollow misery; a target for our accumulated anger and sorrow. And, the catharsis of expressing it. Indulging in bitch sessions after fights and breakups; the hen party, man bashing sessions with the girls afterwards - a bonding ritual. (Not really my tack. I was prone to write a lot.) I got home, picked up my guitar and “You’re Done” fell out. The song is pretty self-explanatory, I think. Except for the last statement. “I’ll have my fun when you’re gone.” is a reference to that “payoff”. Video was edited with Microsoft Clipchamp in March 2025. Uncertain of the recording device and videographer. The clip was in my Google Photos.

🎵When the moon hits your eye like a big piece of pie on 3 14🎵 🤣 One of several short clips I took as I sat under this wonderous event. Working on putting them all together for you. We don't look at the sky in wonder enough. We really have forgotten we are all A PART OF this wonderous CREATION; not apart from it. 🙃🙏 Made with Clipchamp. Music is from their library. Thumbnail is a still shot taken shortly after this video. Taken with a Panasonic FZ300. Don't ask for the settings. I messed around in Manual mode a lot before I gave up and went to an automatic mode. 🤯🤪 (Truly, I almost threw the thing. I am quite certain I was meant to share this experience with you) 💗🙏💗 Many thanks to all who have helped to make this possible, including: MY SISTERS Workman Arts Michelle Savage and all of my supporters If you would like to help support my work: Check out my channel youtube.com/@UC4yTCmFc-V3POqqZ01VTS0w Hit Like and Subscribe Check out my RedBubble shop www.redbubble.com/people/bystresscookie/shop Or, you can "Buy Me A Breath" at buymeacoffe.com/dolarts Interested in more?

It's been a while. Had to slap this together using a previously produced video. So, it is glitchy. Mea culpa. This, I believe, really needs to be understood. And, I didn't want this to contribute to the growing backlog. So much needs to be said. I have Good Intentions... Examining the greater context through the lens of my experience... Treading through a minefield... in the name of unconditional love... I just tell the tale. I don't say I like it. 🙃🙏 Unless otherwise identified, All video, images, sounds and thoughts are my own captures and manifestations of CREATION. Thumbnail/Opening artwork: a "neurodoodle" entitled "Diversity of Thoughts"; painted as a reprieve between a few tasks and projects; including wrestling with my video app. It can be displayed in any orientation.🙃 Sound: distress tolerance by my baoding balls and i. Outro: The end of my song "Good Intentions" (2016?); Audio recorded on a Dell XPS 15; mastered with Cyberlink AudioDirector 365. Video produced on a Samsung Note 9 using PowerDirector (I am somewhat attached to all of the formatting in the mobile app. Some of which does not appear to be available in the desktop version. :( ).
