Minor General Questions that Don't Deserve Their Own Thread
shadesofblue replied to Monicker's topic in Lana Thoughts
Is there a thread/master post of all merch apparel? can’t find any complete ones -
I personally don’t think celebrities should speak on world/political events unless they are educated on the subject. Too many celebrities now are pressured into speaking out on every issue that they know nothing about and end up creating more unnecessary harm. People should not be getting their news info from celebrities. i also think most Americans who aren’t familiar with the subject are being influenced by a lot of propaganda. Ever since I can remember growing up, the US has instilled in our minds that terrorists & Middle East=bad and are “jealous” of our freedom which is crazy looking back now. From what I can remember, no teacher (until college) ever divulged into what actually has/is happening in the Middle East let alone Palestine. Even in history classes in high school I remember learning up until 9/11 and then we just skipped the whole middle eastern conflicts which is pretty wild. Talking about anything in the Middle East was something that was almost seen as taboo. College was the first time I ever learned about the horrific history Palestinians have endured, and I think it’s sad. This plus all the pro-israel propaganda has really confirmed this for me. I’ve seen so many pro-Israel commercials the past couple weeks now. it’s kinda scary honestly knowing in reality, most people in America (hopefully less now) only know surface level info on the Middle East. So then people just assume “well terrorists are bad we don’t want that” with no context on the history and then assume Israel is doing a good thing. That being said, it’s not an excuse to be ignorant about the subject. I personally have always been confused on the topic (as are many Americans unfortunately) but try my best to make sense and educate myself. Little disappointing to see lana sign this but at the same time, I’m not that surprised. I don’t think she deserves to be cancelled or get hate for this. I hope she takes some time to educate herself more

I found an article from 2008 talking about rob’s business ventures https://ibb.co/gRJbx4V it sounds more like he didn’t actually see all that money and a lot of the money he did make was put into other businesses. ”However Grant found there was also a downside to his occupation. Advertisers doled out multi-million dollar accounts” “After six years in a very high pressure job burn out started to set in just as Rob and Pat had their first child, Elizabeth (Caroline and Charlie followed over the next few years to round out the family). With a family to think about now, they decided to pull up stakes and make a radical change in their lifestyle by moving upstate to the mountains. All of their friends thought they were crazy and warned them that if they walked away from their jobs they would never be able to come back. Grant said, “even so I looked at my life and thought if I stayed in Manhattan and raised a family it would be enormously expensive and we would have to live in an apartment out in the suburbs. It just turned my stomach to think that I could spend the rest of my life going back and forth to the city on a commuter train.” -page 2- “On the downside, the more domains Grant piled up the scarier it got because of the extremely high annual registration and renewal fees at that time. “It was brutal,” Grant said, “because you had these high carrying costs but absolutely no revenue. You really had to believe. I feel it was the true test of whether or not someone has vision. I sat for years paying these registration fees and not earning a nickel and wondering if I was out of my mind.”

Thisssss. I think the internet has a very black and white way of thinking. It’s either someone is evil or someone is an angel and nothing in between. When in reality, most people fall in between which sucks I’m sure for famous people. no one is perfect. I personally don’t know anyone irl who is 100% perfect. Obviously there’s some boundaries but it just doesn’t seem realistic to put those standards on everyone. That’s part of the beauty of being human, you live and you learn. People are always gonna be mad at something unfortunately. At the end of the day, her family’s wealth literally means nothing either way
-
I’ll never understand the obsession with her family’s wealth. It would be different if she was some billionaires/mega rich daughter but i really doubt they were rich rich. They might have been upper middle class at best. People just wanna see her fail so badly and it’s sad. She’s incredibly talented so that’s all that matters to me. People need to chill.

See, I would go because I’m not that far away, but I would feel awful if Lana got more attention for an event about Joan. I’d rather someone who is a Joan fan to go instead. (Also pretty sure it’s sold out anyways) But I hope it goes well and lana fans stay on their best behavior <3

I think it’s great other people listen to her too! I was more so just saying that because that’s the majority of her listener demographic. Lana is for all<3

Whenever I tell people she’s my fav artist and they don’t listen to her, they’re always like her/and her fans are unhinged and act like she’s strange or something. I feel like you could say that about plenty of other artists. I don’t understand why people always want to drag her. Let the girlies & the gays have something if you get it you get it, if you don’t you don’t

Tbh to me it sounded like she wants to do more shows/another leg. Especially with the comments she made after one of the last shows to fans about not wanting to stop. She sounded more like she was more so done visiting places she went this leg as in she prob won’t go back to those areas until her next album/tour. I think she’s gained a lot of confidence throughout this tour too. By the end of the tour, she seemed a lot more happy and confident in her performances compared to the beginning. I really do think she’s on a roll and wants to continue working/performing. That plus the other comments like Byron saying it was a just the warm up make me believe they’re hinting towards another leg if not a few shows elsewhere. I could be totally wrong but I personally think at the very least she wants to do more shows next year in spring/summer. The only place in the entire west coast she visited was a festival show. The closest she went was texas so that also makes me think maybe she’s leaving room to visit the west coast or other places for another leg, kinda like how she did west coast first for NFR tour and then added another leg for the east coast. I think it’s totally possible she’d add a couple random dates between then maybe east coast/west coast/Europe or other countries. I know she prefers smaller venues and there’s tons of smaller indoor venues. She has done random one off shows in the past so it’s a possibility. I hope she does continue but also i completely understand if she wants to take a break (plus many venues will be closed). Or I could just be delulu lol

one of my fav parts of these live streams from this tour is when lana sings the line about her dad in ride and says "he's here!" and rob pans the camera around the audience. he's such a gem- 163 replies

(You might already know this but just in case) I’d recommend bringing some electrolytes with you! Idk if that’s possible for you now but i know there’s powdered electrolyte singles that you can mix in a bottle on the go. If you’re really desperate for electrolytes you can also try to eat something salty/little bit of salt you can eat or mix a pinch in some water. If possible I’d bring any sort of emergency meds like anti nausea/ migraine meds that you may need just in case. I struggle with a lot of nausea too but those are some things I try to do to prep. You’ll have a WAY better time at the show if you’re well prepared and rested trust me. Also, don’t feel bad you don’t have the energy to do that. your health is more important. Make sure to stay hydrated and listen to your body! Hope you have a fun! -
Those don’t look like lithium. maybe the left but I doubt it

Left looks like celexa (antidepressant) possibly middle looks like a supplement possibly but I’m pretty sure the right and left are both mental health related. But I’m no expert
