Many people (including me) have been talking about DYKTTATUOB as 'Ocean Blvd' but I think that Lana would've wanted for us to call it 'Tunnel' and here's why:

 

So in the title track of the album, she says "Don't forget me like the tunnel under ocean blvd" which is a metaphor for her career. And she also asks "Did you know that there's a tunnel under ocean blvd?" which signifies as that the person she's talking to already knows what Ocean Blvd is but may be unaware that there's a tunnel under it. Therefore, people KNOW Ocean Blvd, but most people don't know about the tunnel. So let's say that the tunnel is her career. And the fact that many (including me) have been calling it 'Ocean Blvd' while we should've been calling it 'Tunnel' since Tunnel is the forgotten part, so we have forgot about the Tunnel, and we only focus on the most well-known part: The Ocean Blvd. :um2:

 

 

I just read this out loud and realized that I made no sense:derpna3:

 

 

it absolutely makes sense I'm changing the way I refer to it now, either the full name or Tunnel no cap

I remember that she referred to the album with 'tunnel' in one of her speeches or interviews

I remember an interview from the BTD era (like maybe before it's release) where Lana said she doesn't like to spend her money but occasionally she buys a nice piece of jewellery. And we can totally see that in the BTD and paradise area. She wore the same emerald ring, the same diamond studded choker with the crucifix, the same silver snake bracelet and a few other things multiple times (once i spend hours looking through the gallery in sightings on Lanapedia to analyse her fashion from 2012-2015 so i didn't miss much lol).

But it seems these days she doesnt care for it anymore!

Also I dont think she's a minimalist. Have you seen the state of her bedroom in some of the photos she's shared :teehee: But she also doesn't seem like an overconsumer.

this is fascinating thank you for sharing!! come to think of it, even now we see her in a lot of the same clothes, shoes etc and of course the infamous iphone :omfg2: i vaguely remember some kind of live laugh love type bedroom wall decor in that one video she posted (the 'god bless and fuck off' video) which feels super on brand for her atm. it's adorable bc i get it - when you're like 22 all that sickly sweet sentimental '40 year old mom core' stuff is like ewwww cringe.... but then you get a little older, settle down a bit more and you're like you know what maybe i DO want that anchor-shaped photo frame that has "you hold me down in stormy seas" written underneath it in cursive to put a picture of my husband inside :oic2: can't wait for her minions-posting facebook mom arc

After Lana marrying a violent transphobe, racist, and MAGA supporter, I look at her differently. I look at her in a way I should always have. I love her music and art. I genuinely thought she was a good person. But I don't think she is anymore. I should not have treated her the way I did, being uncritical and not separating her art from who she is as a person. So her and her husband being trash actually had a silver lining in that I'm not naive about artists anymore.

But isn't that the kind of relationship she's always sung about, at least since Ultraviolence? In Ride, she was into patriotic rockers. She always had a soft spot for Americana, then possibly also for patriots, Republicans and MAGA supporters.

Outside of her music, she claimed to support the LGBT community, she claimed to oppose Trump, she claimed both IRL and in song to support BLM, and all that goes for abortion and other issues. Then she married a racist Trump supporter who hates all of those things and wants to violently attack trans women. And when she saw people talk about it, she instead asked people not to and begged fan pages not to address it. Instead of openly responding or affirming she heard us or talked to him or something, she wanted to do PR and do it in a horrible way. I realize now that her commentary on social issues are either lies or completely self-serving and that's it.

that doesn't have to be mutually exclusive, maybe she's trying to fix him...

I think he won't make such transphobe posts again, because that could harm Lana now

I don't care. She knew who he was and chose that. But even if she chose him, she could have said something to that effect but she didn't. Instead she scrambled to keep her fans from talking about it bc that's all she cared about. 

 

If that's his only motivation, he's still a transphobe. And Lana enabled that.

I find it weird that the transpobic/antivax/MAGA are still up on facebook. But, his TikTok likes were wiped hours after they were found.. he really don’t GAF about any of that stuff he probably only wanted to get rid of the half clothed women in his TikTok likes 💀

Idk where else to put this but is That Song still banned? It's not in the collection so I assume it is but I really don't want it to become lost media.

True. The data hoarder in me wants to preserve it. 

 

Same with a few not banned but also not really good or listenable "demos" that aren't anywhere and don't seem to be talked about. I know they're just her fiddling with guitars and shit but nobody seems to put them in their master posts or trackers.

I was listening to Watercolor Eyes tonight, and I realized that, the guitar and production has the same melody as the Zodiac leak. I don't know if it's just me, but if you listen closely, you can hear some similarities. Or maybe I'm losing my mind because the TikTok ban :twirls:
