Yeah, I hope that lots and lots of people are listening to her and thinking about what she's saying.

i dont want to be molested at shows or on the street by people who perceive me as an object that exists for their personal satisfaction
just for everyone who is expressing concern about a few things that weren’t super clear in my last tumblr post:a) meeting fans is actually incredibly rewarding for me so im gonna keep doing that and if u see me on the street its like, totally fine to say hi :)
a) meeting fans is actually incredibly rewarding for me so im gonna keep doing that and if u see me on the street its like, totally fine to say hi :)

happy to read this one http://actuallygrimes.tumblr.com/post/47434876685/u-know-i-just-want-to-apologize-for-ever-wearing

dude, if she is sitting next to you on a plane, or in front of you on line for qdoba or wherever grimes eats feel free to say "hi, i'm zvookster. you're claire, right?" but if she looks busy don't run up and ambush her and make her day weird. the distinction seems obvious.
― Pat Finn, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:11 (ten years ago) link
That intro line does sound a bit weirder than simply saying "hey I appreciate your work

I also read the word "molested" here as meaning specifically inappropriate physical contact.

My cheerleading for Visions was def mitigated by a love of her live show and personal outlook
― flamboyant goon tie included, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:18 (ten years ago) link
wait they made you mitigate your cheerleading?
― 乒乓, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:21 (ten years ago) link
Sorry, no antonyms for mitigate can be found

no DJP. sometimes there is no other option than saying the oppoiste of what you mean and praying your message will get across

I misused the word "mitigate", but I think I subconsciously chose that word because I was hoping to imply that my opinion of "Visions" today was considerably less vociferous than it was a year ago
― flamboyant goon tie included, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 14:35 (ten years ago) link
or perhaps you never mitigate you didn't enter

pretty big difference between "hey, I saw your show last week, it was great!" and "OMG GRIMES YOU ARE SO CUTE CAN I GET A PICTURE WITH YOU?" *drapes arm around her shoulder*

I'm curious why would anyone be offended by a bindi? Some are pretty nice.
― Me So Hormetic (Sanpaku), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:19 (ten years ago) link
cries of cultural appropriation, I'd think
― Dr. Adorbius (mh), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:20 (ten years ago) link
Everything we wear and do is appropriated from somewhere. The idea of exclusive ownership of cultural symbols is kinda offensive too.

what do you think of that dude at coachella wearing a faux-native american headdress?

well sanpaku is a super-rational-bordering-on-savantism dude so i wouldn't really have expected better

white privilege in a nutshell innit
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:34 (ten years ago) link
Look, we've had 10s of 1000s of generations of tribal warfare based in part on cultural identifiers like this. I just think the sooner we drop the idea that these things are exclusively owned and building fences between tribes the better off we'll all be.
The white guy with dreads isn't mocking or stealing from the rasta, he's just paying homage and looking a bit silly.

Grimes is, except for maybe Pynchon, probably the single public figure of some note that I most wished posted on here
― Drugs A. Money, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:42 (ten years ago) link
Um, 'wished' shouldn't be past tense
i'm not sure what's so amazing about her latest tumblr post? i mean i understand and sympathize with what she's saying, it just doesn't sound particularly remarkable to mr

Yeah I think it's slightly sad that they're seen as revolutionary and SO amazing etc - it should be obvious and taken for granted! - but she's right and unfortunately in our present cultural moment it needs to be said
