fraises

Hey, thanks to my mother, I've been a feminist my entire life. Way before Tumblr. Don't assume everyone heard about it because of the website...
 
 
I wonder who that guy is. Do you guys have any idea? It's not K, right?

All of these responses just prove why feminism is important 

I agree with this and would like to flop with you for your cohesive and true argument, I feel like she didn't handle the question properly at all.

yea lol why would everyone care about equality, overrated tbh

Um, it'd be one thing if she said something like, "Feminism or lack thereof does not enter my consciousness when writing songs, nor should it have to. To be frank, I just don't have an interest in feminism. I also don't believe that art should have to adhere to ~socially correct~ conventions nor should it have to be ~progressive~. I write about my fucking personal experiences, and I'm not about to comprise my art to pacify those that don't respect how I chose to live my life with the person I loved during a time I felt happy and fulfilled." 
 
But no, she didn't. It's one thing to state a lack of engaged/active interest, it's another to DISMISS a social and political movement that has undoubtedly bettered the lives of countless women around the world, including HER. Christ. Cringing hardcore at the "LOLOL FEMINISM IS SILLY AND TRIVIAL IN COMPARISON TO SPACE AND SCIENCE I AM SMART". It just kills me when Lana does her faux-intellectual schtick (politics, metaphysics, etc), because she always comes out looking like a complete idiot. 

I'm sorry if this offends anyone but after West Coast, Ultraviolence and Shades of Cool are a little... underwhelming (but maybe they'll grow on me).

I'm sorry, but we have to stop with this "social worker" thing. It's a profession which requires years and years of schooling, in Canada, a 4-year degree. Point is, you have to reach certain qualifications and have certain certificates, and you undergo intense practicums and counsellor training.  
 
Lana is NOT a social worker. She did volunteer work, but is in no way a social worker. 
 
If you trip and fall and have a gash on your knee and your mom puts on a bandaid on, does that make her a doctor? NO. Your friend comes to you to confide and work out their problems. Does that make you a psychologist? NO. 
 
It's really not any different. Doctors work incredibly hard to meet their qualifications, as do social workers. It's disrespectful to their achievements and work when you undermine their profession by slapping a label onto anyone that does anything that vaguely resembles their career. Christ.

Sorry for Off-Topic, but I would consider a love story to be at least consensual. But it isn't.  Lolita does not love Humbert, she runs away from him, the moment she sees the chance to do it. Don't forget we only see Lolita through the eyes of Humbert - who is captured in his own desires and fantasies. He objectifies Lolita to please his fantasies, even though on the surface he cares for her.

exactly my problem. i don't blame lana or any young girl for having an obsessive crush on their teacher, but he obviously stepped over the line. actually the way lana talks about lolita is pretty disgusting. she thinks it's a love story for crying out loud. no doubt because of that teacher.

Yes! :3 

TBH, I like all the tracks we've heard so far.
 

 
I love the production and tempo changes of West Coast and Shades of Cool, and the psychedelic guitar accompanied by her ad-libbing/wailing on the latter is one of my favourite parts of any Lana song, ever. 
 
Ultraviolence (the title track, I mean) strikes me as one of those hypnotic songs and the spoken bridge is sexy, sexy, sexy. And finally, I don't hate Brooklyn Baby... to me, its just unremarkable, but I mean, we've heard like a teeny tiny bit of it so the capacity for it to grow on me is still there. It does have a good vibe/mood to it, I have to say, so I do kinda like it. 
 
I'm very happy with Dan as a producer and I feel like Lana is finally making the music I wanted her to make, that I didn't know I wanted, if that makes any sense? haha :3 
 
I like the aesthetic this era, from the grunge-inspired look to the black and white of promo videos and artwork. I'm hopeful that Lana can get the critics in her favour, because I think it would really increase her confidence and it would mean a lot to her. I'm excited for her and I'm excited for us, as a fanbase!
 

 
*flops*

Regarding this "Lana cheats on Barrie/Barrie cheats on Lana" discussion: open relationships DO work. You can be emotionally faithful to someone and still have sex flings with other people.
 
Date me Lana, I am not jealous at all.
 

the fact that you find it okay to joke about a massacre 

The song title is just different from the rest to me for some reason.

I'm not gonna lie, it's not my favorite song of Lana's, but it is good. I'm really loving the connection I feel between this and Black Beauty. I cringe at the rhyming of "California too" and "Chevy Malibu" though lmao.

A lot of stuff she's mentioned before, but a few really pleasant surprises here: As someone who always rolled their eyes at Lana's superficial fondness for Kurt Cobain (and found Nirvana overrated compared to the other major grunge bands anyway), it's nice to see Pearl Jam and Mark Lanegan on this list. I'm also surprised to see a Doors track that's not completely cliché.
 

Knowing her taste in men, that is the last thing I would ever think of.

He's gay. Sorry, beau.
He's not my teacher anymore, but I seriously should have hit on him, ugh. I mean he's fucking gay and I was his favourite student!

i even found his phone number 

I'm not sure if it's against the rules to post something personal about a non-famous person (other than being morally questionable), but based on one of his social media accounts, I don't think that's what he looks like.

I'm still pretty sure it's the other that she's friends with but idk i don't wanna get into it because honestly i feel creepy and invasive even looking for him so i'm gonna stop lol.
