saw obsession for the third time tonight. greatest score of the decade, i cried this go around. my golden rule of horror is that if you want it to be scary, it has to be sad, and cast and crew nailed it. i love movies.

Lana del Rey changed music forever when she released born to die and people don’t give her enough credit, she completely reimagined and expanded what pop music could look like.

4 years of this beautiful and magnificent album

do YOU have a favorite Tori song and era? ;)

This is really tough as it shifts around a lot for me but overall definitely spark, there are so many great lines like “if the divine master plan is perfection/maybe next I’ll give Judas a try” or “she’s convinced she could hold back a glacier/but she couldn’t keep baby alive” or “ballerinas that have fins that you’ll never find” and the production is so satisfying like the guitars at the start, and the bridge- I can’t articulate how much I adore it. Some other contenders would be blood roses, little Amsterdam, playboy mommy, gold dust and little earthquakes (title track). Oh and maybe 23 peaks now as well but it’s a little early to tell.

it’s hard to pick one honestly, Tori has so many great songs that are all really unique sonically/lyrically so it’s difficult to compare them. Like spark and blood roses are worlds apart.

My favourite era is probably boys for pele in terms of aesthetics, like the vibes are immaculate and the mythology behind the album is super interesting and the concept of just…leaving society and recording an album in an Irish church with a harpsichord is just…yeah. Also the photos are really iconic, like the one where she’s breastfeeding the pig, it’s transgressive, deeply strange and oddly beautiful in a weird way? Which kind of encapsulates boys for pele as an album. Sonically though it would have to be choirgirl, it’s probably one of my favourite albums ever and it’s my most listened to overall, no skips, perfection start to finish.

Do you have a favourite Tori song and era? ^_^

My favorties of hers fluctuate tbh. I've followed her since i saw her video for Silnet All These Year as an MTV buzzclip and thought "wow she's amazing but the mainstream music scene is not ready for her." lol my wisdom at 13. I was a casual fan until Pele because I realized by then she was not going anywhere.

So for a long time my favorite album/era was Pele, because that was the tour I first saw her in concert, it was so feral and unhnged as an album while also being wildly baroque. I was obsessed. I was 17 and I felt fiery and unhinged.

Pele reigned supreme for a long time,until Scarlet walked into my life. I was an adult by then and the post-9/11 pain of that album just. Swept me away. It's probably still my favorite album although by a very small margin (see later). For the past ten years or so since I got sick and older "Gold Dust" has been my favorite song because life, the good part of life, really list like gold dust slipping between your fingertips. Enjoy the sparkle while you can. It's PROBABLY still my favorite

as for Era, from aesthetics, ADP. The Dolls were my everything and if any of the pop chicas pulls out a concept like that their fanbases would go fucking feral. Also my favorite show of hers I went to was that year (I got Isabella -- imagine the lucky people who got Pip!)

But as an album... lately it's been Choirgirl. like. I had a really hard time with this album when it was release in 1998, it's too painful, I was dealing with my darkest period of my life, had just had an abortion, and then this album about miscarriages came up and I had to stop back for a couple deades. Plus that was the worst tour I saw, the acoustics blew and I was surrounded by drunk people talking over her music. But Choirgirl is probably as perfect an album as it can get and if there is a favrotie song that is not "Gold Dust," It's "Hotel" for like totally different reaons lol Hotel is just AN ACHIEVEMENT

honorble mention to Talula

Botswana officially erases ban on same-sex intimacy

Local LGBTIQ+ organisation LEGABIBO welcomed the government’s move, describing it as “a necessary and long-overdue step toward restoring dignity and aligning our legal framework with constitutional values of equality and human rights.” The group said the change sends “a clear message that LGBTIQ+ persons are not criminals, and that their lives and relationships deserve protection, not punishment.” LEGABIBO noted that the colonial-era provisions had long cast a shadow over the lives of LGBTIQ+ people in the country.
