I’m starting to lose you with the “issue” and “troubling” language, @Dior. I don’t think it’s an issue nor do I think it’s some problem with the collective psyche. It’s a phenomenon, interesting sure, but not really something that needs to be treated like a problem.

Architecture and Pink Champagne are two that I can objectively say have better lyrics than their released counterparts.

I think part of it, too, is nostalgia. We get leaks that are usually from an era, or many, prior--and since Lana's sound has changed tremendously through the eras--it takes people back to that time in her career and that time in their life. I think "Melancholia" benefitted from the nostalgia of the UV era immensely, bc it is quite a rough and slightly awkward song. That said, I agree that false "scarcity" or this idea of "exclusivity" around leaks is what drives the fascination. Look at "Riverside". I'm sure if UFB gets released in 7 years, no one will really bat an eye then either. And if "Candy Necklace" had been the outtake instead, we'd all be begging for that song.

Sorry I love Lana but that’s not “cute and quirky” that’s straight up being an asshole. Her fans are young and most of them are splurging a lot to be able to go see her live. If she doesn’t want to be there, she should’ve made that clear before taking money outta their pockets.

Ya but you can’t be late to Glastonbury. She’s known about the curfew since she signed on. It’s very strict!

If she comes back to instagram with the promise she’ll pay my bills, I might move.

At least it seems they died instantly and before their nervous system even figured out what was going on...

I really don't think they're alive at this point. Even the 96 hours was a rough estimate... It's very sad, especially the 18 year old who had is life ahead of him. All gone due to a vanity trip to see the Titanic.

other than the immense fear from being conscious for 96 hours and stuck in a cold dark tube, the actual death by suffocation would be painless, from my understanding. You'd go to sleep and lose consciousness before major organ failure, so it would be relatively peaceful--like that Greek airliner that underwent rapid decompression.

Not on this plane of existence, imo...

Exactly, it’d take the wreckage out and ruin it for observation by actual scientists and historians.

Not to minimize their suffering, but if they crashed into the Titanic and are stuck underneath the rubble I’ll be mad. It’s already so delicate it doesn’t need to endure manmade damage.

I don’t think it means much. While she may have more monthly listeners, I am not certain she could sell out a stadium the way Beyoncé can. Such comparisons are frivolous at best and inflammatory at worst. Though, I digress from my belief, in that the statistics are interesting. I just hope Lana’s cashing those checks and buying herself pretty things.

When I was 8 my parents took me on the Finding Nemo submarine ride in Disneyland. I was traumatized. Why anyone would willingly get into a submarine is beyond me—I hope that they can survive this with as little emotional trauma as possible.

oop I missed the June dates! Thanks!!

See you in London!!! 2 nights seems low tho, I wonder if she’ll add more.

(call it :mer: 💅💅)

Canadian store is more organized I guess. Got the confirmation email immediately

OH MY FUCKING GOD I GOT ONE

up to a point. Ppl will stop getting hyped if it’s mass available and spontaneously purchasing. We’re near that tipping point of supply/demand, so I think 3rd or 4th restock will be the last.

I’m gonna fucking burn down the house of whoever is in charge of sending out her store’s email notifications. Why send a restock notice after the restocks are all gone

I can't believe I basically share a birthday with Ultraviolence and wasn't able to get one of these vinyls

By the time the email went out it was already sold out in my country 😭

i never set a passcode and the AI bitch keeps asking me for it
