Escapism

I kinda hope we get a new photographer for the next album. I love Neil's work and Chuck... can be unpredictable (as in sometimes she has good shots and others... not so much lol), but I think it's about time to switch it up again. I mean, back when Lana switched from Nicole to Neil, it felt fresh and well, it was really nice. Although, I'm sure it would be difficult to find another photographer that can capture Lana's essence as well as Nicole, Neil, and Chuck have. Speaking of Nicole, I wouldn't mind Lana bringing her back considering it's been around 5 years since they last worked together, it'd be a nice homage - although, I think that would have worked better for LFL considering it's connection with BTD. Anyways, I'm excited to see what Lana's putting together whether it be an EP or an LP and the sound she's going for.

I'm not sure what I want in terms of sound as Lana has proven she can do well with various genres, although I still hope we get RBFY as a song. However, I really hope we start getting iconic and memorable videos again. Her past couple of eras have been pretty bland and well, forgettable in that area. Perhaps BTD and Paradise set the bar too high (not counting UV even though we got SOC). -HM does have it's moments and I have a high appreciation for it's aesthetic, it's all very pretty when it comes together but that's it. If someone were to bring up her videos, they wouldn't be the first thing that comes to mind. - When it comes to LFL though.. lmao... I mean a lot of the photoshoot preview videos (Idk what to call them, but think that Steven Klein w/ Cherry) are more interesting than some of what we got, same with the Album trailer. Although, I'll give credit to the Love video for having a really pretty looking space setting. Maybe it has just come down to Lana maturing more and finding a comfort zone.

i mean ok cool I still have no idea where I stand with her tbh it's not just about the rape accusation- although thats a pretty big part (even though timothy seems off in a lot of ways), there's that yunglita chick she hangs out with who has quite an interesting history with fetishisizing some of the things melanie's been accused of, some of her old pals she's had fall outs with speaking up (I mean melanie's fans are fucking vicious, i can see why they hadn't said anything before a major thing happened and more people are willing to listen). all in all it's just a mess lol. but what i do know for sure is i really like that blue wig.

i was waiting until like mid-night to watch them and boy was I not disappointed. I was happy to see Garnet got so much love in these episodes and I enjoyed the gem to townie interactions a lot, Letters to Lars was definitely one of my favorites out of the four.

Taken from reddit, but here's some preview images from the episodes: https://imgur.com/a/Cqose - the big show https://imgur.com/a/fxUap - Letters to Lars (?) https://imgur.com/a/MdnMK - Your Mother and Mine (?) https://imgur.com/a/Kp1nx - Pool Hopping (?) There's also a half hour special airing May 7th: http://www.geekgirlauthority.com/steven-universe-returns-april-9/

So, new episodes 5 days away (on the CN app)! but fuck the flashbacks have me hyped

I wouldn't be surprised if it was G eazy, she seems incredibly bitter about the entire relationship now - hence the shade (i.e the "G" sign and "the day your record dropped- and it wasn't even that good"). As for Fran, I just don't like him lmfao (but he did give us some good photoshoots!).

HTBAH is one of the worst things she's ever done, Sorry! There are much better songs on the album that deserve justice that how to be a flop got!

a very realistic reaction of mine when i saw katy perry's comment ...yipes.... odd to think i liked her when i was like 9! anyways i think its kinda cute that lana posts her fans edits

Since this hasn't been posted yet, keep ur calendars booked for April 9th! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfjwe4bx9Go It's also been mentioned by the VA of Rose that there's a Pearl/Rose origin story episode coming As well as a small leak of an upcoming episode and part of a song with Lapis I'd post it but like I don't know how to use the spoilers lmao

Well, for me at least, I use them to make coverarts for my albums/playlists, use them as my phone or computer background, and I've wanted to make t-shirts using images of my favorite artists but I'm super picky. And anyways, photos can be fun to edit with. Plus, I also enjoy art so it gives me some inspiration on what to draw or paint.

i'd rather have her album photoshoot outtakes (casper balslev especially) than stems tbh! like stems r cute n all but i have no personal use for them- although i'm sure many others do

Honeymoon - 25 Terrence Loves You - 7 God Knows I Tried - 36 Salvatore - 28 The Blackest Day - 33

Honeymoon - 26 Terrence Loves You - 13 God Knows I Tried - 29 Salvatore - 24 The Blackest Day - 37

She did dye her hair, but it got ruined while doing so. Hence why she started wearing a wig. http://www.capitalfm.com/artists/marina-and-diamonds/news/hair-loss-wig/

The starring role acapella, instrumental AND Casper Balslev? although I do wish there were outtakes from the baby shoot and the curtains

One of my biggest issues with EH is hypocrates. I don't think it's a bad song, but like, where it's placed kinda ruins the "darkness" that comes from Living Dead, Teen Idle, and VOTD. ESPECIALLY in terms of production. I think it should've just switched places with one of the deluxe songs as I'm not sure where else it could fit. I also feel like the videos got a bit messy and I wished they had a bit more focus on the archetypes Marina wanted to portray during that era - I mean we barely got anything for Idle Teen and Housewife. Oh, and finally, HTBAH did NOT deserve a video. Not when homewrecker exists! And the Lies video could've been a lot better or replaced by Starring Role.

I really wouldn't mind a flower aesthetic for this album, since she had that time where she was obsessed with flowers and based on her last ig post, it seems really possible.

Ok this. CN's schedualing is bullshit. Lars of the Stars (and likely the episodes before that) were finished in production over the summer, however, it seems there was still dubbing to be done as there was a small leak by some country in I think South America. So, they already had the episodes done (at least in English) and after, arguably, one of SU's BIGGEST events they make us wait 6 months for some 'townie' episodes. I actually really liked these episodes, however the long wait ruined part of the experience and hype surrounding it. They could have easily just spread them with like 2 episodes each month from September, October, and November. That way we're getting at least a consistent schedule and content, plus it wouldn't make it seem like such a huge fall from the previous episodes. I also think sorting the episodes this way would give the Audience more of an understanding with Steven missing Connie, as the bomb just made it seemed like it was resolved right after it occurred lmao. Also, the whole Zuke fiasco is just sad. As someone who also ships Lapidot, I'm going to miss Zuke's work a lot as they were probably my favorite storyboarder. It's not even just Lapidot (althought I do think she writes them the best), I loved her art style and her writing in general.

mind giving some insight please? xx

I honestly forget this guy, of all people, was able to somehow manage be the president until he manages to say or do some stupid shit, that is frankly unpresidential. It's mind boggling that people actually thought he'd be a good leader and that he actually IS now a leader. It's also very evident that apart from being incredibly stupid, he's also unstable and has an inferiority complex, he is not at all suited to run a country.

WOW I love her look for this show Her hair up like this looks great for her middle part, and those boots are killer

wtf is with the rumor going around that shes pregnant

she is HITTING us with these vocals tonight
