i shut up for 1 week n all u have left is usa politics discussions and gifs

I just want to say while I took a break from LB to focus more on school stuff and panicking 4 times in a week, Blue Banisters really helped me to calm down. It was like the only thing that made my anxiety, well, not exactly go away, but get less overwhelming. I had it on repeat on low volume for so long since it’s release. I didn’t find Wildflower or text book to be as soothing, so I haven’t played them too much since the release but! I’m ready to stream them a lot now! They’re really so beautiful, and I love the lyrics.

But that‘s ok cause, Now when Lana stays quiet, All my sisters log in to LB to be delulu My delulu gays @Diamantes WILD is spamming gifs all day @Terrence Loves Me is being tasteless again @synecdoche2 is spilling facts@Lustformoney is on her way And now my LB is delulu Ah-ah Lana releases, Lana goes Interactions she skips, God knows Lana releases, Lana goes During the album rollout she sleeps, heaven knows All my sisters log in to LB to be delulu, delulu

And now my blue banisters are green & grey

she got shit for the coverart without speaking a word U think bitches woulda been cool knowing the song was called text book of all things

...............

I might be late, but did y'all already real The Irish Times? They spilled. Finally media backing up Lana. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.irishtimes.com/culture/music/why-did-taylor-swift-suddenly-get-all-woke-she-capitulated-to-our-one-note-cultural-landscape-1.4583085%3fmode=amp

here's the deal here's the deal

quick, somebody ask google/alexa/shazam for the tracklist

Asked google to play textbook and it said, playing blue banisters the album by Lana ITS HAPPENING

Summer comes, winter goes Spring, I skip, God knows Summer comes, winter goes Spring, I sleep, Heaven knows Blue banisters, ooh

very weird take

Lana after tricking me to go into the boot of the truck she brought in the middle of the night by promising me there was a bag of Rock Candy Sweets inside.

saying that she just has to deal with all the hate really rubs me the wrong way. deep down inside we all know that it’s better for her to not say anything and to take a break from social media. i think it’s just selfish to say that her fans will suffer in the long run. while it’s true, not everything is about us. lana really needs to take care of herself mentally and if not doing anything on social media helps her, then it really shouldn’t be a problem

As I'm sure others here have, I have used art as a form of personal catharsis to move past trauma sometimes. When I have made art for that reason I have never wanted to talk about it afterwards (or even look at it, sometimes) because the process is a way of releasing those feelings and moving on. Obviously everyone is different, but these songs are deeply personal and maybe she feels this way, too. I mean, what is she supposed to say? "My mum abused me, it was really shit because my dad never stuck up for me and I ended up in the hospital and on lithium"? "My relationships keep failing because I'm a writer and it fucking sucks"? "I'd rather forget S**n L****n exists"? I think everyone should calm down because I doubt she's going to ghost us forever just because Ben or someone advised her to. It's in her nature to be a bit of a shitposter and once a shitposter, always a shitposter

And then Azealia goes to the FKA twigs post where she poses with Rocky and says how much she loves FKA while ignoring how ASAP physically assaulted women. Later this happened: You can't bring Azealia on these topics. She is VERY problematic, to say the least.

Welcome back bestie!

No like seriously say goodbye to this album lmfao, it's over for sure. Congratulations to everyone who let this happen

I think people are kind of starting to get the idea that Lana owes us constant interaction and social media presence, which isn't true at all. There are multiple celebrities who aren't even on social media at all and still do well/have a good relationship with their fans. If she wants to be less active on Instagram and Twitter for this era, that's totally fine with me, especially with everything that's gone on in the past year or so. Just seeing her comment section on the triple single post she made (and has since deleted) kind of made me understand why she would not be active if she's doing it intentionally. I could go on and on about the parasocial relationship thing and how it relates to Lana/her fans, but for now, I'm just going to say that I hope she's doing well mentally and taking care of herself. I've also been spending a lot more time with the singles since summer started for me and I'm loving them even more than I did before. Text Book has grown on me a lot.

Looks like it’ll be leaking I just wanna know if there’s a booklet w more pics from the photoshoot inside

Okay y'all, it's 100% clear that bullshit media about her, affects her in a bad way. Even when she says she doesn't care. She cares too much. I truly hope her trusted managers advised her to focus on her own truth and her own metal health. Maybe our girl finally realised that she can say a lot more when she makes art, than when she badly articulates what she wants to say on an interview.

I. honestly dk how anyone's not at least a little pleased w the 3 tracks. i end up randomly singing parts of em during the day. i just wanna know how the story progresses but ohmygod still so good

Comfortably numb but with lithium caaame poetry and baby I

Nah Fuck AB. I’m sorry but there are things that makes sense but this isn’t one of them. She supported trump openly, was transphobic, racist and discriminatory. Lana is not any of those things and does not deserve to be in the same sentence y’all are on drugs. I leave for one day and come back to this.

While there’s a good chance the car selfie may end up as the album cover, I can’t help but wonder if she’ll return to something a bit more polished. Personally, I think it would be neat if she were sitting on a bed of grass with her eyes shut and the bed of grass closely surrounded by a ring of fire. I think it would tie in with her vows to never turn into something that catches flame while also referencing her ongoing concerns with the fires in California (specifically in Santa Clarita). She’s been “under fire” from the media for the past decade, and I think seeing her sitting peaceful, unbothered by her surroundings could be a neat concept

This is so true and probably one of the worst trends in pop culture. It creates this eco chamber where out of touch celebs say the same thing and pet themselves on the back for being so brave and moral. I would prefer the majority of celebs being "airheads" with only a few who genuinely care about politics than this. The ratings of the Oscars and Grammys shows how the public reacts to bullshit but they can't seem to get it. This has gone so far that celebs have become propaganda tools. How moral is a celeb who knowingly has young fans like Ariana and Billie and encourages them to vote for a democrat president and have a certain ideology? They're all for equality but don't bother to tour everywhere else that isn't the US, UK, west Europe, Japan and AUS. As for Lana, she isn't far from them. She's trying to jump on the bandwagon but fails to catch the train. Dumping Kanye over being a republican? Kanye is batshit crazy but it's pretty disturbing if you decide that people who vote for a different party don't deserve to be friends with you. She reacted so poorly when people joked that she was a republican instead of laughing it off like in that furry livestream. She can still be a democrat but expressing it in a different way would suit her more. She doesn't seem radical at all giving by her her QFTC statement but I understand the pressure from her environment.

Nah, it's not about laziness. She literally posted and then thought twice about it and hid the post. She just doesn't want to hear anyone's bullshit on a post about the songs when she said what she said. The songs talk about why she has the fragility she has and why she feels certain ways and what she's doing to fix her issues she has but people won't see it that way. She just doesn't want to hear it. It's that simple. If she's lazy, why would she make the post but then hide it???? you realize, this is the same woman who would get sickly anxious before shows sometimes.... make it make sense

This album seems fairytale themed from what i get from the songs

on streaming platforms when it comes out

I made up my mind and, if it leaks, well....

fucking hell this is boring

Wait a min....ppl are talking shit about Text Book??? Not on my watch.

Maybe it‘s her way of talking to us, her fans, while staying quiet towards the gp. She knows we will see her post, even if she deletes it shortly after posting. Maybe she is just busy working in the studio and polishing the masterpiece BB is going to be Have faith. Trust the process

Said he'd come back every May Just to help me if I'd paint My banisters blue Blue banisters, ooooh

Anyone who leaks this is going straight to Handmade Hell

i was listening to this album yesterday and it was a beautiful experience, i love this album and it's very special, there isn't anything quite like it, i totally agree that this album is like a kaleidoscope, every track is unique and they all serve a purpose, and although some tracks are similar in their song/style, they're all different, they all fit together perfectly, it's hard to pick a favorite when they all have something great about them, every track on this album has a specific feel & vibe, they are full of life & they're all multi-fauceted, they have depth and the album is just oozing in nostalgia, something i love about this album is the contrast between yayo and the rest of the album, the album is very colorful, bright, vibrant, and filled with life, and yayo is very subdued in it's sound and production, it's definitely the most "melancholic" sounding track of this album, it's confessional, vulnerable, hopeful, and hopeless, you can feel the pain and the vulnerability in her voice and in the production yet there's a sense of hope in this track, it's a very deep song in that way, when you listen to this track you can just tell it's something very special and very personal, and although i feel like it's different from the quirky, colorful album itself, it fits very well, amidst all of the liveliness and color, this track shows a different side of lizzy, it's lizzy at her most vulnerable, hopeful, and heartfelt, it's the perfect closing track and this is the perfect album

The queen is back!!!

I kind of get what you're saying, but being a Republican is viewed as synonymous with being a racist, homophobic, transphobic, etc. so I understand why Lana would be angry that people are calling her a "Republican" or "Lana Del Reycist" It makes me angry that they do that too, because she's the farthest from those things haha As for Kanye, and "dumping Kanye over being a Republican," he is not just a Republican, he was a full fledged Trump supporter, along with actually being homophobic and transphobic. Abortion opinions are one thing, but if you are gay or trans then I don't see how you could be friends with someone who is homophobic/transphobic and doesn't support you and votes for taking away all your human rights. Why are so many artists showing off that they're democrats/liberal? I mean, its just always been way more common for artists/people in the entertainment industry to be more liberal. Not only that, but young people just tend to be more liberal as well Not only that, but think about it this way...how many Ariana/Taylor/ Lana fans are gay? How would it feel if your fav turned out to be Republican and tried to promote their followers to vote for someone who is trying to take away their basic human rights? Could you really still support them?

Seriously… if your friend or colleague or whatever sympathizes with an objectively bad party, it doesn’t make your loyalty look cute either this thread couldn’t fall further from grace unlike the UFB pre-leak on topic: not a day goes by without listening to the godly singles several times. The atmosphere she’s created within each one is almost too much to handle. Just thinking how I‘ll listen to NFR and BB back to back is giving me chills. I‘m glad we still have the album to look forward to, even though the anticipation is killing me

i hope her bbq breaks on the 4th of july

the media instantly took the three songs and made the implied claim that the most controversial thing to take away from them is her mentioning black lives matter then to delve into QFTC rehashed discourse and then paled the entirety of lana's lyrics about maternal abuse and her hospital stints earlier in life given that whatever she does causes some outlandish reach of an article pushed to pursue advertisement revenue i dont think it's uncalled for to believe her team finally stepped in and told her to stop doing anything at all

Ok so I have a theory about the music video, BUT it's really dumb so read at your own risks :

been too busy sex modding thesims 4 to care abt blue bollocks

LMAO BoZ on Twitter also said that the reason he doesn’t really spill on her is because even if he did she would probably change it a few days later anyways and he’d seem unreliable JSNSJXNSKAKSNEJSNSNSNSN it’s just too funny

also i got like 2647 mentions yall r still tasteless except for @lanasbottom n @Venice but i love u anyways

I’m sorry Marina I will be listening to the leak which I hope is soon. Hopefully she takes solace in the fact I’ve already bought it.

Honestly I agree with everything but this part. I think it's okay to distance yourself from people who have different political views provided you let people have an opinion about things you may not agree on. For example, I'm pro-choice and I know there are people out there who are pro-life, but after all, they're people who are allowed to have an opinion, even if that opinion is damaging (but hey, it's a great opportunity to have a debate). Yeah it sucks to admit, but that's life and that's how humans work. At the end of the day, we can't force people to think the same way as us. It's quite literally impossible and you have to be a realist to truly understand that you can't just 'shun' people from speaking about certain topics that differ from your own, but we can surround ourselves with people who are likeminded to us to achieve inner peace for our own wellbeing

Real or not, that first version of HBHG we got a few months ago always sounded kind of.. flat. I never really got into the song until miss 1000 Times leaked the final the other day. Now I’m lowkey obsessed with it.. the new little production quirks are so goood & it just sounds amazing. Thanks again legend!!!

yuh got a thundabird ma daddy had one too lets re write histry i''ll do this dance w youuuh

I can’t wait to see everyone losing their shit in a few more months of total radio silence and no releases
