August 4th 2013
Just got back home from my first trip to Korea and was readjusting to life in the US, playing video games with my friends on Skype and drinking my mom's wine until 3am.

I’m sorry but every Weeknd song sounds the same

Okay wait… uh.. this might be a scam?? The dress they have pictured does NOT appear to be the one Lana wore.
 
This is a picture of the dress that was sold in the pop-up shop. It was also signed for the fan who originally bought it, which is not noted in that auction description - 
 
 
 
Now look at the picture of Lana wearing it and the one the auction house has listed, specifically on the right side. The photos of Lana wearing the dress and the photo from the pop-up show that the right side of the dress is yellow and green. The one from the auction house shows mostly purple? And the inner collar of the original is yellow and pink where the one from the auction house shows pink and red.
Then look at the front pleats. The pictures of the dress from the pop-up shop and on Lana show a green panel, a panel of purple and red, and then a purple panel. The picture of the dress from the auction house shows a red pink and yellow panel, a green panel, and then a blue and purple.
Also if you look at the big red spot on the left edge right above where the seam meets, you see a white dot right on the left edge in the auction house picture. On the pop-up and LDR picture, that dot veers more towards the right. The placement of the red&pink patches above it also look different.
& again, they did not note that the dress was signed, which the original is, and I feel like that’s an important detail to note.
I’m going to contact the auction house about the authenticity of the dress so no one is cheated lol there’s a possibility they maybe used a stock photo of the dress or the way it’s pleated makes it appear different in that photo, but… something seems off x
 
Pop up pic on left, LDR pic in center, Auction house pic on right:


 
Edit: one more discrepancy I noticed is that Lana altered the sleeves to be smaller/less drape-y (she commonly alters a lot of her stage wear) If you look at this photo of her wearing the dress with her arms raised, you can see that the sleeves don’t drape as they originally do. You can look at my photo wearing the dress a few posts above to see how the sleeves originally fall. When looking at the auction house photo, the sleeves look to be unaltered as you can see the extra length draping at the sides. Lana has them shortened, which is more evident in the popup picture - 

Cola vs. Diet Mountain Dew

rly hoping it’ll be gearing more towards folk than country. but also like girl please make more songs like fishtail and a&w for recent examples 💔

Elon Musk looks like an alien that’s trying to look like a human
There is something really strange and unnatural about his face; idk how else to explain 
And after having this thought, it occurred to me that if an alien WAS on Earth and WAS trying to pass as a human, it’d be him 

Gaga on Hot Ones this Thursday 

Let The Light In vs Cinnamon Girl

Dark Paradise vs. Let the Light In

no FROOT was definitely well received! Just not as well as EH and TFJ but it's not like people hated it. even the critics liked it
 
i do think that, up until then,  it was probably her weakest project because it's not sonically as varied and some songs just kinda "fade"  into the background. but it's still a great record IMO.
 
now having said that... i also believe shitting on the snippet is pointless. like just wait for the drop! it doesn't even sound THAT bad 
 

I do agree with some of the sentiments being shared, but one of the reason marina changed post FROOT was because she was sick. don’t get me wrong there was definitely some kind of ego death with the release of FROOT and achieving what she wanted, but she did a podcast (chronic comeback) and the symptoms she described sounded horrible. 
 
I understand why she created songs like orange trees, EYL, true, etc to try and ‘manifest a bit of happiness’ or whatever. (though obviously even with a reason that doesn’t make the songs/album any better and I won’t pretend it does) 
 
I think it’s the missing puzzle piece as to why l+f was such a mess, (she postponed in hopes of getting better, then after its release she wasn’t feeling well), and why ADIAML was so rushed, (to get out of her contract so she could recover). we’d speculated those things before but we didn’t actually know she was sick at the time, we thought she’d just lost interest. 
 
now she is better and she didn’t lose interest after all we’ll see if the music is any better, I don’t think that it’s going to touch ‘the trilogy’ for me, as the pedestal they sit on is far too high but I think it’s going to be enjoyable because she’s clearly having fun. venus fly trap does have some clunky lyrics but it’s enjoyable to me as I can feel her energy, it’s cute, it’s camp, hoping the same thing for M6. 
 

i think marina definitely has (had?) talent, she has a beautiful voice, but she lacks drive. it's clear to me that she resorts to making music as a source of income, so therefore she cannot give up on it, at least not yet. but i truly believe she wanted to retire from music after froot, which she did to some extent by retiring her old moniker. perhaps maybe it wasn't just the name that needed to be retired… i'm sure if she had rihanna levels of fame she'd definitely be on the same path.
 
another thing to consider is that the golden age of marina was a product of the context she was inserted. tfj couldn't exist in a world without lily allen, florence + the machine, foster the people or whatever was big in the uk alt scene at that time. similarly, electra heart couldn't exist without the edm mainstream pop scene of katy perry, lady gaga, kesha and so on… they were great because it was the right sound at the right time. trying to recreate that magic in a different context just doesn't work as much and the results end up being lackluster to say the least. froot, to me, is her best album because it's her most timeless record, it doesn't feel like it's attached to a specific era of pop music and it takes things that were great in the previous two albums while making a new thing as well. if i was her, that's the direction i'd follow. unfortunately she seems to be stuck in trying to replicate the aura of a marina that's long gone, which i'd say is the fans' fault to some degree… anyway i've rambled too much sorry for the essay 

oh my god this thread made me go down a wikipedia rabbit hole and eventually discover that the song Margaret is about Margaret Qualley

Now it's been years since I've left New York.
I've got a kid and two cats in the yard.
