  1. Velours liked a post in a topic by IanadeIrey in Luigi Mangione charged with murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson   
    His online presence signals something very alt-right to me...yes, this increases class consciousness but it's also interesting to see someone as radicalized as him be the messenger. The irony, however, is that he's very pro-Elon.
     
    If someone left-leaning did this, I don't think the current reception would be as widespread as it is. My takeaway is that certain conservatives needed someone on the right to be the mouthpiece for what is, frankly, a non-partisan issue (but gets treated as partisan). Hopefully this minimizes the scapegoating that certain conservatives do of BIPOC and trans communities. I imagine it's going to take this for people to realize what the true "enemy" is.

    This was her Golden Age. There was so much material and lore behind it all…the world was waiting for her next move and she doubled down on the very thing she is known for and does best…

    With the straight brows and side parted curled hair, she’s giving 2011 realness x

    Josh Kemp as a bassist; recall these lyrics from “Joshy & I” — when you play the bass, I get this feeling….

    Yessssss Courtney and Lana are back. It’s not like her dig at Lana covering Take Me Home, Country Roads is all that different from what Lana’s own fans say about her country flair sometimes….
  9. creditcardromancer liked a post in a topic by IanadeIrey in Unpopular Lana Opinions   
    Regardless of what her stances are, I do think this recent descent into the culture of the South isn’t without some sort of internalization of the popular beliefs there, even if it’s not an entirely conscious thing. The people you spend the most time with are bound to impact you. The person you marry says a lot about you. 
     
    I personally would not develop an affinity for the American South as someone who knows the history there and isn’t white. I have never thought that Lana is someone who doesn’t mean well but her positionality affords her the luxury of not having to take too strong of a stance on anything bigger than herself, at least publicly. And that’s fine, she doesn’t have to.
     
    I think the insight she shares through songs are a commentary on American social life—a particularly distinct account of white American womanhood—and that’s enough. Of course, this perspective she writes from certainly resonates with all audiences and transcends all kinds of identity markers. We wouldn’t all be here if that weren’t the case. 
     
    But Lust for Life was, indeed, just one reactionary album to the status quo and captures the cultural shock of Trump’s first win. A lot has changed since 2017, and even since 2021 when Biden was inaugurated. The American people have only grown more divisive and perhaps we can take Lana’s static disposition to be representative of that. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Something about this all feels so fever dreamish…real but not at the same time. I love how random she is lol

  13. ScarlettHarlot liked a post in a topic by IanadeIrey in Dream Locations For A LDR Tour   
    I’d like to see her do something kind of like what Adele has recently done (which is not necessarily play in venues around the world and sequentially): a few one-off shows in venues that aesthetically resonate with her style, are longer than her typical 70-90 minute set, have a specially curated setlist, and have a strong theme/concept. 
     
    Something like her shows at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, but with a completely new and novel setlist that tells a story. A heavily conceptual show has been long overdue for an artist like Lana, and she’s flirted with that a bit over the two last years (outfit changes in the first two shows of 2023 and this year’s Coachella intros and outros). Think something grander and more theatrical, yet even more vocally focused than ever before…
