Hearing the guitar riff on ā€œWrite a List of Things to Look Forward Toā€ was SO FREAKING GOOD. Like unreal this woman is such a talent and honest communicator in her work. I love how you can feel it. I was really crossed when I saw it live and that felt great too lol. Love Courtney.

i always have to preempt this with ā€œyeah she’s unbearable in the most minute and therefore most infuriating ways and someone who i Do Not Fuck With broadly, butā€ but this record does fully whip. do it with a rock star threatens to fall apart with every lurch and trout heart replica’s gorgeous. feels like records that weren’t predictive of post-2013 big indie have been lost in the shuffle, but so it goes.
i ended up coming back to this one after grumbling out of of the side of my mouth over chappell roan for the last little bit. i’m pulling for her because she seems talented and sincere, and as a queer midwestern former theater kid myself she’s basically lesbian al gaib, but for me right now she’s held back because her whole ~thing still feels a little embryonic. she’s in that early marina + the diamonds space where she’s still figuring out how all the pieces fit together and can’t help but be a little more obvious and boring as a result. i’d love to see her go full camp, let the music match the aesthetic.
and, as it goes online, my beef is more with the fans. people roast folks for falling for a half-dozen ā€œfirst openly gay disney characterā€ plays, but don’t want to see lucy holding the football with the ā€œfuture of queer popā€ girlies. the chappel stans annoy me, in other words. but then i remind myself they probably didn’t have a teen+college dresden dolls/amanda palmer phase, so we all get the loud gay shit we deserve

two women next to me on the train are having an insightful heart to heart. a guy behind me is clearly flirting with this girl and you can tell it’s mutual. we all have rich, rich inner lives :)
