MIA

shouldve gone for the double bird, more provocative imho

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

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.

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

you're right -- also thinking of moving to a wood cabin & never interacting with anyone again

enjoy!

to oj da juiceman, forever ago

irl lol

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

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.

other than al liking to disagree w/ me about anything at all ever b/c he is basically a troll

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

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

deej nutz

dying @ al

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

i don't know but it was a funny joke

xp

you're saying there's an essay in this?

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

*flips bird*

GUYS...

WORLD PEACE

just chill out for a sec...

give-a-shit-finger

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?

half cheerleaders, half extras from the "remember the time" video

Is it cool to like M.I.A.?

I would estimate that M.I.A. is in around the 95th percentile of "cool," which means that, basically, if you have to ask this question, yes, she is cool as far as you are concerned.

love this

The comments on Fuller's post are much better writers.

not a finga!

9 years since galang.... fffffffff
