"tumblr's the only social media without algorithms!" "you can still be anonymous on tumblr!" "tumblr's so nice because you don't have to show your face!" WRONG tumblr is special because you can have 3000 followers and still get an average of seven likes a post. i'm doing stand up comedy at a packed venue and one person is laughing
i literally get so many of these…
i’m glad julien is prioritizing her health, i hope she’s ok!!
JULIEN WITH LUCY AT THE LIVE GAYOTIC SHOW
OMG
aged like fucking milk
i feel a think piece brewing…. and i’m on spring break…. beware…..
i have so many thoughts about this so i apologize if this is scattered.
Some of my own thinky thoughts...
Country is a music genre that is even now seen as Southern US, very white and cis/heteronormative, as well as politically conservative. So for two LBPQ people, at least one of whom has leftist politics, who now live in LA (Julien) and NYC (Torres) despite both of them coming from the South (TN and GA, respectively) to which they still have a connection collaborating on a country album may always be anathema to some people, and those people can get stuffed.
As for Julien's solo work, something I've seen in other corners of the internet is her music seems less accessible compared to Phoebe's or Lucy's, or the boygenius catalogue as a whole. I don't agree with that assessment, personally. And I sure as hell don't believe she's less talented than Phoebe or Lucy. (NB: Julien's my fave of the three. I also enjoy Lucy's work.)
Another thought on the lack of press so far for SAPMW, compared to more of it for Lucy's next album: There may be a combination of timing and the label releasing them at work here. Lucy's album is due out in a month and a half as I write this (March 28, 2025) so there's likely going to be more anticipatory press than what we've seen so far. She's also now signed to Geffen, which is a much larger label compared to where she was -- and where Julien still is and which will be releasing SAPMW in mid-April 2025 (Matador) -- and my own guess is Geffen may have a larger press budget. Assuming there will be more press for SAPMW to come, it'll likely start happening sometime in March and into April. (Side note: Seems to me most of Julien's press for Little Oblivions happened close to its release date?)
Okay, the "Best Guess" music video... I think the critiques regarding representation (no deep-skinned Black butches/mascs, no fat butches/mascs, everyone handsome by Eurocentric standards) are true AND I think the reasons you give for why we saw who we saw in the video are spot on. I also wonder if we could've seen even broader representation had the auditions not been limited to Tiktok. Of course, neither Lucy nor Geffen could have predicted the ban would take place close to the time auditions were called for, sooo...yeah, there's that, too.
I think Lucy has self-identified as pansexual and/or queer, from what I understand? I remember her mentioning that on a podcast from some years back, though I don't remember which one.
I think the lack of public support for Julien could be simply because a lot of people are unaware of what's going on right now (this is the first time I've learned of it myself!). If they do know what's going on but are dismissive of it, yeah, that's not okay. I agree that her being masc may have something to do with it, too.
read their thoughts! they are spot on!! i honestly didn’t know lucy was on a different label!
another thing,
i’m seeing a lot of thoughts and i have other thoughts
people are saying that people aren't allowed to feel happy about the rep that was in the vid. they are. no question, if that rep made you happy then be happy. that's fine!
another thing. people are pointing to her origninal casting call vid saying only wanted hot mascs in response to ppl saying there was a lack of studs or fat butches or disabled butches or literally anyone darker than a paper bag, and to that i say. it sounds like you're saying none of those folks can be hot.
check yourselves if you find yoursled having this thought. i am being so fucking real when i say this. if you think an underweight white woman wearing pants is hotter than a stud. you need to get your head screwed on straight.
i also keeo seeing people talking down to people who have real critisms of lucy. if you're talking down to these people acting like theyre beinf overly dramaitic. shut up.
and once again, this all feels like such a non issue we shouldn't be talking about this fucking much because another member of the band lucy got a majority of her fame from was threatened to be shot!
julien baker and torress as well as everyone else in their video for sugar in the tank were threatened.
i wish ppl were making think pieces about how scary that is rather than the lack of rep in lucy's video. myself included. but because every fukcing person and their mom on tiktok is making a 2 minute think peice like this shit is life or death. when its not.
you know what is, actual fucking death threats. it is just so frustrating to me that ppl are willfully ignorant to one thing overly focused on another.
i will probably keep responding to my own post over and over cause i just have a lot to say and think about.
so
sorry in advance
seen lucy darus fans saying they are shocked at lack of diversity... um.. i hope that wasnt shocking to you... like at all. i already knew it was gonna be like that because mainstream queer artist usually dont include or cast darkskin people in their stuff. they cast non black people then add token lighterskinned black person or two as a "here damn". and they don't have to add them i guess. thats why we support our own black queer singers. we cant keep expecting this from white queers when they showed us time and time again 😭
as much as i love boygenius and their solo stuff they are white queers at the end of the day. they’re never gonna include the full spectrum of queerness because to them they don’t need to.

"He can't do that!"
"That's illegal!"
"He is violating the constitution!"
Then fucking stop him! Arrest him, throw Musk out, bar them from entering when they try to access shit.
Because guess fucking what, laws only have meaning when they are enforced. They only matter when someone fucking does something about it.
i have so many thoughts about this so i apologize if this is scattered.
also, not to be that person, but all of this is giving the rise of fascism… the wanting butches/ mascs to be a certain way, hating on julien and torres…
like… queer folks aren’t immune to being facist…
wanting femmes to act a certain way, wanting butches/ mascs to act a certain way, hating queer people all together….
yall are nazis if you’re doing any of that. btw!
