Tbh, a timbo b-side from 2002 is better than half of what I hear on the radio in February 2012.

dilbert's hilarious

this also happening right in the wake of the 8 millionth lana del rey think piece is also what just makes me think 'here we go again' & just not want to look at the internet for a hundred years

glad i could be of service max. enjoy the ensuing 'controversy'

but you can read dilbert on the internet!

Hey deej, you do know you don't actually have to read all 8 million LDR thinkpieces, right? Its pretty easy to ignore if you try!

idk i just wish the artists we (meaning, those of us in this broad media bubble) chose to spend so much time arguing abt & having firm opinions on were releasing worthwhile music artists that deej personally enjoys

no one is talking about this b/c of her music dude xp

fwiw the extent of my engagement with Lana Del Rey has been limited to my casual acknolwedgment of her ILM thread's tendency to stay at the top of the New Answers pile.
iow yeah dude it isn't that hard
― max buzzword (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 6 February 2012 21:12 (twelve years ago) link
xp Just bored now of people (not just you) complaining about the big online discussions. Turn off your fucking Tumblr dashboard, put on a record you like and go and read a book. Nobody's forcefeeding you.
― Suede - the fabric, not the band (DL), Monday, 6 February 2012 21:12 (twelve years ago) link
it's a shitty Madonna song that she got like two bars on, who cares?
there is plenty of discussion of her new single upthread fyi

idk why everyone here is disagreeing w/ me about this, seems fairly commonsense& not out of line what w/ others in the thread are saying
― D-40, Monday, 6 February 2012 21:16 (twelve years ago) link
I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you, actually! You just kind of kicked into the thread wondering why we were talking about MIA and then proceeded to say pretty much what other people were already saying.
― Gonjasufjanstephen O'Malley (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 6 February 2012 21:17 (twelve years ago) link
other than al liking to disagree w/ me about anything at all ever b/c he is basically a troll
― D-40, Monday, 6 February 2012 21:17 (twelve years ago) link
i sympathize w/ deej's fatigue and this is such a dumb thing esp while she was all dressed up as part of madonna's dumb cheerleader brigade but i don't think ppl ever agreed to or wanted to ignore her... her last album was more divisive than derided, i think
― J0rdan S., Monday, 6 February 2012 21:18 (twelve years ago) link
dying @ al
to be fair to MIA (lol) i am putting a bit of the lana del rey thinkpiece exhaustion on her for trying to whirl up some more absurd inanity

however you managed to make it so that im considered the #1 oj da juiceman stan when you were the one who enthused abt his career prospects so heavily i'll never understand
you can't say hilarious shit like i was going to say, 'we'll see how funny it is when your tumblr dashboard is overcome w/ people using this event as an excuse to write lazy essays abt ~what this means~ in terms of gender race culture economics & society' & then i realized who i was talking to and expect us all to just stand on the sidelines and say NOTHING, come on now

you're saying there's an essay in this?
― Little GTFO (contenderizer), Monday, 6 February 2012 21:21 (twelve years ago) link
the culture of long & unnecessary handwringing essays on tumblr is really a whole separate discussion

that doesn't need to happen, but just for the record
oh no, it's happening

i'm more interested in whether everyone else felt embarrassed as i did for her to be dressed up in a cheerleader outfit and relegated to being one of madonna's back up dancers
the whole thing is bizarre and not in the way i guess she was intending?
