Between social obligations (or a lack thereof), consumer madness, financial worries, the constant repetition of the same five carols everywhere you go and the stress of studying for finals, there are certain days where all you want to do is hide in your room and take a temporary vacation from “the most wonderful time of the year.” So here’s a playlist to help you unleash your inner Scrooge. May it help you be as charming as an eel as you dance/thrash/Grinch the night away.

Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥
