Lauren Bacall

it seems that the poems he has tagged as "a la muse" are the ones inspired by lana: http://disembodiedpoetics.com/category/poetry/a-la-muse-poetry. in this one he refers to her as his "muse"
 
one of her tweets which is from one of his pieces
 
this similarity is interesting: in this 2009 piece, he says "my compass points in all directions at once and i follow in pieces. i am true west", which reminded me of the ride monologue and "no moral compass pointing me due north" line
 
the find that made me say holy shït: in this post, he writes this - '“I hope millions of people read your writing, it’s so damn good.” – Lana Del Rey, Multi-platinum recording artist (Interscope)', and includes this quote on the front cover of the book, which you can buy a copy of if you wanna

I mean, I know we talk about SUCKER is her worst album, but I’d love if she did a SUCKER (Charli’s Version) tbh 

I love how this album is so pointedly the opposite of her creative process during how i'm feeling now but also the complete opposite of her creative process after becoming associated with AG et al. Esp. Used To Know Me...a brilliant track, generic as hell but also extremely fun, and the lyrics hit so hard thinking of them as a double entendre for her relationship with Atlantic.
 
She's brilliant. I'm so excited to see what she'll do next. This album feels like a major turning point in her career in a similar way that VROOM VROOM was.

It just hit me Tove Lo wasn’t on the album, And they were doing that YouTube video together…

Please come back Tove Lo…

guess who I saw spying in my local Pandora??? 
Sweat is coming 🥹🥲

the way you typed this gave me a migraine

She really just spawns in a random state every 3 weeks. I'm jealous seems fun

LB user resisting the urge to say “duRiNg a pAnDEmIc?!?” for the 100th time this year 

Someone declared that the first new moon of every year is now a queer holiday in which we celebrate SOPHIE’s life, and i could not agree more. It helped me feel a little contentment. She deserves a whole planetary system/galaxy/constellation named after her.

Came hereto say that Penny and Leonard's relationship is worse than Ross and Rachels

missing the days when we'd just post this gif and have a good laugh

It's been 4 1/2 years since I last posted my collection here, and it was time for a much needed update!! 
Unfortunately, unlike my fellow collector queen @electra, I do not possess enough open space to take one big picture of it all, so I had to photograph it all in chunks.
I've divided everything below into the following categories - Music, Merch & Misc., Apparel Merch, Posters, Magazines, and Clothing worn by LDR. Within those spoilers will be photographs & a write-up of everything. The magazines & clothing are my favourite things to collect, and that's where my collection really shines. The majority of items in my collection come from those two categories.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy, and I'll see you guys in another 4 1/2 years to do another update, because I was reminded during this grueling process of why I waited so long to do an update and how physically & emotionally taxing it is xx
 
So, I present to you all..

Okay so I wanted to share how I'm organizing the unreleased material from 2016-2019, here it is!  
(I'm missing an album with the outtakes of Pop 2, but I'm working on it! It will have Let U Down, Claxxixx, I Try, All of the Time, Don't Let Me Go, Naked, and others from the era) Also, if I'm missing something, it's possibly because I don't like it  
 

do you need to go back on mod queue ? 

you were totally right, Party 4 U deserved its own artwork too  
 

Cute little artworks I made for Up N' Down and Believe - 'cause yes, they deserve to be treated as singles and to stand out in my library 
I used the same photoshoot from the Nylon Japan DJ Set - imagining they were released as promo singles a few days/weeks after to celebrate the event  
 
 
 

She's not booking another magazine cover ever again is she 
It's clear she thrives off of drama and wants there to be some kind of opposition against her. It's self sabotage. It's like she wants to feel like she's fighting an enemy.

I bet pitchfork is rewritting their COCC review as we speak 
 

you took my interview out of context  
 
on the official twitter account for complex  

she is genuinely so out of touch it’s getting pathetic.

i wanna die

I think we do way too much of talking about her intentions. There's a lot of ignorance, plain dumbassery, and even evil in the world that are done with good intentions. It doesn't make a difference at the end of the day 
 
And thats not me saying she's evil. nothing she's going on about really has that much consequence in the real world. but when a grown adult is speaking for themselves they're showing who they are as a person.  if you're still pulling your hair out trying to defend her and explain what she really meant i think you need to just move on 
 

I did a simple edit of the official cover to make it look more well lit

 
Comparison:

almost forgot how flawless the vroom vroom photoshoot is✨
