somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond - e.e. cummings ───── ♡ ───── somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond any experience,your eyes have their silence: in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me, or which i cannot touch because they are too near your slightest look easily will unclose me though i have closed myself as fingers, you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens (touching skilfully,mysteriously)her first rose or if your wish be to close me,i and my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly, as when the heart of this flower imagines the snow carefully everywhere descending; nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals the power of your intense fragility:whose texture compels me with the colour of its countries, rendering death and forever with each breathing (i do not know what it is about you that closes and opens;only something in me understands the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses) nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands

right we can have music videos like mariners apartment complex, venice bitch, white dress, blue banisters. all of those are very simple but still pretty. and ofc we can bring back the DIY lizzy grant type of videos random vids put together

EVERYONE WAKE UP

insider info and fighting in the pre release thread, oh we’re so back

it’s not really a song? more like spoken word i thought he’d be singing

he’s mostly likely in california so 7 pm PST

idk about drugs but she was definitely drunk as fuck. usually she remembers social etiquette, but that night she snatched the grammy out of celine’s hands without thanking her or making eye contact which was pretty disrespectful and a stark contrast to how miley honored mariah. and of course, right afterwards tree makes sure to upload a picture of celine and taylor backstage to put a bandaid on everything. plus there’s a video of taylor asking julien if she can put a grammy on her head, while julien was crying/being emotional and none of boygenius were having it 😭 awkward so yeah all in all i think taylor was a bit chaotic that night and didn’t mean harm to anyone, but she was prob really excited and impulsive. with lana, i doubt taylor saw lana’s hesitation as a genuine firm “no i don’t want to go up there” but rather just her being shy, and taylor being the extrovert felt the need to take matters into her own hands in an abrasive manner. however lana clearly isn’t traumatized by the incident unlike what a lot of fans were acting like, so it’s not that big of a deal.

she’s been talking about guns in her entire discography and she has a right to protect herself or otherwise learn shooting for fun

lana posting edits of herself with her own songs is SO iconic. she’s the baddest bitch of them all

HELP WHY IS SHE HOLDING A GUN?

i hate the titles “down bad”, “so long, london”, “loml”, and “i can fix him, no really i can” like taylor girl wtf very gen z tiktok. that being said, they’re definitely intriguing and make me curious as to how the songs will sound like. seems like she’s going for an indie artist vibe right now (although because of how weird the titles are, i wonder if they’re also red herrings? she usually doesn’t announce tracklists this early)

reading ‘only dull people are brilliant at breakfast’ by oscar wilde rn and i have to post some parts here that remind me of lana and the industry: “A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament … the moment that an artist takes notice of what other people want, and tries to supply the demand, he ceases to be an artist, and becomes a dull or an amusing craftsman, an honest or a dishonest tradesman.” “Now Art should never try to be popular. The public should try to make itself artistic.” “In England, the arts that have escaped best are the arts in which the public take no interest. Poetry is an instance of what I mean. We have been able to have fine poetry in England because the public do not read it, and consequently do not influence it.”

she replied “the caption 🤦‍♂️” with the face palm emoji, which i think indicates she doesn’t agree with his statement of being an artist’s artist lolol. she’s very humble

spin me round, kiss me in your blue pick up truck

not sure if this is an unpopular opinion, but i am SO excited for a simple album like lasso. chemtrails was the perfect peaceful album, and i think this one might be similar. after how heavy ocean blvd was i actually don’t want anything grand or groundbreaking. my only hope is that the guitar will be loud and clear throughout the album, and that we’ll get some unexpected ‘fun’ songs like we always do on her albums; i smell 1-2 songs with trap in them lol. i really hope this will come out september! the fact that she said that month specifically, maybe means they’re wrapping up the album this month and vinyls will be pressed until the release date. lana always changes shit last minute tho however because this has been worked on for the past 4 years, things should be more decisive this time.

this?

alright william it’s your time to be king

Yep, that category was BY FAR the worst snub. With the other categories it’s like…ok this person is more popular, this person is a grammy darling, etc. But a random Paramore song taking best alt music performance over A&W? Really? That was straight up disrespectful. I remember too, it was like 2:30 pm for me when those categories were being announced: I was SO excited because I was so sure she was winning. This sounds dumb but I had been looking forward to this day since it was announced that she had been nominated for alt categories; I’m pretty sure most of us were like ‘of course she’s gonna win, this is a no-brainer.’ Not only does it devour the other nominees in terms of creativity, genre-bending, and lyricism, A&W was also critically acclaimed. Same applies to Ocean Blvd. Lana isn’t a random indie artist, her sales and streams are great. So all around it looked good and realistic. When she got snubbed for all her pre-show categories…yeah it was over then. If I was a celebrity I would’ve pulled a Kanye moment, got up on stage and said “Yo Billie, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish but Lana had one of the best songs of all time! One of the best songs of all time!” *mic drop*

after what happened last night...she’s never attending an award show ever again

I HAVE TO LAUGH goodnight everyone, and fuck the grammys.

my heart is hurting a little because lana looked timid as a mouse up on that stage! i think this whole day really teared her down tbh…just when she was coming out of her shell

but also why does lana look so shy 🥺🥺🥺 oh no my baby

oh my god taylor fully shouting out lana bless her

SOTY is literally a songwriting category look at the lyrics of what was i made for vs a&w…this is a joke

not disappointed because it’s what i expected after she lost the alt categories. and don’t think lana will win aoty either. they nominated her 5 times only to badly snub her. it’s over
