toward the end of the month I always go to the first posts on the rolling US politics thread and it's fucking insane everything seems like it was ages ago and it was 28 days ago

Robin Pecknold called the couple "Grusk" on Instagram some weeks back. That was a hearty chuckle.
Mimes ftw
― Father Ted in Forkhandles (Tom D.), Thursday, 26 July 2018 17:57 (six years ago) link
mimes would be preferable because then elon musk would not say words

There’s other stuff we could get into, but a lot of it is rumor mill nonsense and I’m tryna get to lunch.
i need all the dumb bullshit!!!! don't bogart it!

Grimes is a 30-year-old musician who was born on the Canadian Internet to a lawyer mother. She went to McGill University, despite adopting the aesthetic of a crusty punk kid.
oh no, she committed the horrible sin of going to university and then acting like a punk, something 99% of kids that go to university do
this is gross. man fuck this invasive gossipy bullshit.
― Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 26 July 2018 20:52 (six years ago) link
Yeah I haven't read the article but these excerpts sound not good
― i’m still stanning (morrisp), Thursday, 26 July 2018 20:55 (six years ago) link
2013: Grimes deleted her Tumblr in 2013 after getting pissed off that the indie music press excerpted her blogs in news posts...even though that is how it works? And she’s very well aware? Because she’s an Internet musician? Or not, which would be concerning for a plethora of other reasons?
if this was someone writing about their ex i would advise them to see a restraining order. what is with this obsessive gossip shit
― Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 26 July 2018 20:55 (six years ago) link
2009: A favorite tale in Grimes folklore is about the time Boucher attempted to sail down the Mississippi River on a 20-ft houseraft she crafted with a friend. They filled it with live chickens and potatoes and renamed themselves “Veruschka and Zelda Xox” for the voyage, according to Pitchfork. That’s some backwoods libertarian, white people wet dream shit if you ask me.
omg she did a silly thing with her friend in her early 20s, one more reason to hate this horrible person
― Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 26 July 2018 20:57 (six years ago) link
OK, I didn't even know she was Canadian!
― Father Ted in Forkhandles (Tom D.), Thursday, 26 July 2018 20:57 (six years ago) link
really hated the era of "hey we cobbled together a news story from grimes' tumblr"

Really awkward retconning of that river trip as "libertarian," ha

What have we come to, in 2018, discussing celebrities’ lives when they’re not even in the same room
... not that a lot of this thread doesn’t dovetail with gross invasive fanboy tendencies ... but I also think there’s an overall interesting point about the rightward turn in the artworld that this doesn’t “prove” or even necessarily typify but at least seems connected to
― Vapor waif (uptown churl), Thursday, 26 July 2018 22:32 (six years ago) link
Insane the amount of Montrealers who suddenly have a story of how they were at a house party and Grimes was just hanging there she was just this girl you know and now she's dating Musk holy shit can you believe it life's crazy etc.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 26 July 2018 22:47 (six years ago) link
sounds like the conversation you have over and over again after someone from high school dies
― Impossible Burgermeat. Unlikely Seitan. (Sufjan Grafton), Thursday, 26 July 2018 22:50 (six years ago) link
Anyway, completely rejoicing in the increasingly-consensus 180 degrees turn on her. People do care about authenticity and politics. Personally, that's a welcome confirmation.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 26 July 2018 22:58 (six years ago) link
perhaps she's changing authentically into Boss Grimes
― Impossible Burgermeat. Unlikely Seitan. (Sufjan Grafton), Thursday, 26 July 2018 23:03 (six years ago) link
Evidence of "people caring about authenticity and politics" is not particularly scarce at this moment, in the online space, IMO

CONGRATS MR AND MRS c!🎊🎉🎇🎆🌠💫☀️🥦🌶🍅🍑🍆🍌🌽🥗🥅🏑🎹🚙🚄🏦💰💍🙈🇿🇦🇨🇦🇺🇸

my friend said her friend dated grimes in high school and she was a seriously shitty person. this has also been confirmed by a fairly major musician i know locally. i love grimes but yeah...
― transcendental headache (Ross), Monday, 30 July 2018 16:23 (six years ago) link
Well, I'm glad that's settled!
― how's life, Monday, 30 July 2018 16:39 (six years ago) link
My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Grimes pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.
― i’m still stanning (morrisp), Monday, 30 July 2018 16:44 (six years ago) link
such a bummer when your favorite artist lives a life
― Impossible Burgermeat. Unlikely Seitan. (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 30 July 2018 16:57 (six years ago) link
such a bummer when high schoolers are shitty people
― how's life, Monday, 30 July 2018 18:02 (six years ago) link
yeah i mean most of my favorite artists engage in anti-union propaganda at some point, just a stage in life you know?
― The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 30 July 2018 18:53 (six years ago) link
lol dudes, funny pushback here...
i mean it is all heresy to me, i love grimes

also, if you've lived in Vancouver for more than a decade and are somehow not acquainted with Nardwuar and Grimes' mother then you should get out more.
― everything, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 23:44 (six years ago) link
Nardwuar was my roommate
― F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 31 July 2018 23:47 (six years ago) link
That’s actually not true

h8 ppl who call themselves hardcore fans when they've never actually gone down the Mississippi with her in a ramshackle houseboat filled with chickens
― ilxor-com-dog-meat-drawer-7-840-x-600.jpg (unregistered), Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:15 (six years ago) link
I got a hug from Nardwuar (in TO) and I'm sure I heard Grimes stories in college (in Mtl). No chickens, tho
― wayne trotsky (Simon H.), Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:20 (six years ago) link
no chickens, no credibility
(I'm slightly jealous that you met Nardwuar, though)

― flopson, Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:26 (six years ago) link
im a degree or less away from s1ocki owen and robyn but have yet to meet any ilxors canadian or otherwise irl. one time i was listening to ‘roadrunner’ while alphabetizing my college radio stations record collection and robyn walked in and said ‘good song’
― flopson, Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:30 (six years ago) link
Diddley or Richman?
― i’m still stanning (morrisp), Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:45 (six years ago) link
I went to concordia (and spent a few years at their radio stn)
― wayne trotsky (Simon H.), Wednesday, 1 August 2018 03:47 (six years ago) link
Is she seriously giving bitcoins and eth for free or is that some meta joke I don’t get.
