some of my favorite shots from the photoshoots we got this year

[caparius2-deactivated20200421]

it seems to me like these songs were made for louis so can tell his side of things of this certain point of time like its obvious there was a moment when they were younger where they both had to decide "do we break up and move on for the label / band or do we stick it out because we love eachother" and i think alot of the lyrics are dramatized to fit around certain narratives that arent personal but i also think that you can take lyrics from like 85% of their songs and see the story of this moment when they were young and can see how harry felt and louis felt at that time

i think harry was young, naive and a bit selfish and was whiling to risk everything to have louis while louis knew being the oldest he couldnt risk the opportunity they had at that time for him, harry and the boys - the first thing he ever told harry was that he was gonna make it in xf, he knew harry had potential to be fucking amazing and knew they couldn't risk losing everything because of them and i think louis did fall for the pressure from his team and was kinda brainwash into doing the "right" thing for not just him and harry but everyone connected to 1d - while i think harry was left out and confused and hurt because he didnt understand why louis was starting to build walls him and keep him away from everything he was dealing with with their teams (which i think he did to protect harry) like in two ghosts when they are both there but not really and he doesnt know how to get back where they were because they dont talk about it - there is alot of talk about walls and not talking and harry feeling lost and confused abour eveything going on at that time

i think the waking up alone references to what harry references to in meet me in the hallway where they might've had the huge fight where harry left for a few days and it hit them both like, "maybe this is it" kinda thing and they both had to figure it out if they wanted to work it out or let things be, harry waits for louis to come to him but he knows they dont talk about things like this so hes worried they never will fix it but they do because louis understands that he cant lose him so they work it out

and then you hear songs where they talk about knocking those walls down for eachother and meeting in the kitchen finally to sit down and talk and it goes to sweet creature and we made it where they are like, "im so happy we worked out all the bs because we made it and you are my home now and i love you even after all this time" i think since they both learned alot from that moment in time and still learn to deal with their own personal insecurities and issues now

anywayjddnfjsjaj these are just thoughts lmao my head is gonna explode and i love my strong babies so much

Louis and Harry with good taste once again. Stan Stormzy

ok but really, i hope ppl can look into the messages he’s advocating with his music, his words and his actions because he is legitimately the musical leader of the revolution and the anti-tory campaign and has been for the longest time, rightfully calling out their incompetence and their inability to take action when needed. stormzy is one hell of a powerful, influential artist and has constantly put his money where his mouth is. these are some of the most iconic things he has done

calling out ex prime minister theresa may for failing to do stuff properly after the grenfell tower fire LIVE during his brit awards performance

calling theresa may out during his artist of the year acceptance speech

he alone made a huge spike in young people registering to vote in the december election

always always always speaking out against fascism

funding two scholarships for black british students to go to the universtiy of cambridge…

which has increased the overall amount of black students admitted to the university

this glastonbury moment (he became the first black british artist in the history of the festival to headline it)

last but not least, dragging p*ers morgan yesterday

what’s the classism post in response to?

specifically to this merch that HSHQ dropped this morning in collaboration with Alessandro Michele, who is the creative director for Gucci

Like, just the fact it’s a $75 t-shirt with such a simple design is laughable, but then you pull out and look at the full reality. 

This is the holiday season and Harry just dropped a full album (which costs money), pop up shops (dedicated to spending money), and tour tickets last month (which cost an ungodly amount of money). A lot of fans can’t afford to buy any of that, or already spent their money. But there’s a pressure to buy, to fit in. Jasmin posted a great rant on her blog last night about fans on twitter being nasty other other fans for not buying a new outfit for harry’s concerts (sorry I can’t find the post she made but it was great). There are people in this fandom that put an enormous amount of focus on money, going to concerts, spending money on merch. And yes, it’s your own money. Some people save up for concerts and travel because they love it. But some people are just…rich. Like there’s no way around it. For every person that saves up all their money is another person that can drop cash on anything with ease and will make other people feel inadequate for not doing the same. 

And then you see the arguments over this shirt where “welll it’s a Gucci item, it’s not going to be cheap but it’s more affordable than other things from the brand!” okay, 1) this is not a Gucci item, it’s a MERCH ITEM with a collab. 2) it’s a simple design. like, I don’t care who made it, it’s a simple design. which leads me to 3) designer clothes are not inherently more creative or special or valuable. sure, clothes can be made of better materials and a better design. but when you reach the level of luxury fashion like Gucci, you hit a ceiling where it becomes mainly a status symbol. 

Fashion is a tool of oppression, and luxury labels are an enormous part of that. This merch item adds to that, and we have to keep that in mind, even for the people that saved up for it or are buying it just for the design. This piece, as silly or inconsequential as it may seem, contributes to a larger culture of oppression and classism, both within this fandom and beyond

the orchestral ending of fine line is like a climax at a coming of age movie, when the protagonist comes to terms with himself and recognizes how to go on with the rest of his life. but there’s no regret. but a hopeful tone, like he’s shaped by all his experiences, he’s going to be okay, life goes on and will continue to go on, and maybe that’s what life is.

references to the sun, sunshine, and summer on Fine Line

Golden: compares a lover to the sun; “I know you were way too bright for me,” “you wait for me in the sky, brown my skin just right, you’re so golden”

Watermelon Sugar: “Tastes like strawberries on a summer evening,” “I want more berries and that summer feeling,” “Baby, you’re the end of June, I want your belly, and that summer feeling”

Adore You: “Your wonder, under summer skies”

Sunflower Vol 6: repetition of the word sunflower throughout the song

Fine Line: “You sunshine, you temptress”
