Things We Stan This Week
Listen – someone on youtube is clearly out to get me with this incredibly targeted content (trigger warning, for me)
a. please read the title of that video and if you don’t scream #SAME, get out.
b. how dare they (this is clearly about me???????????)
c. good use of mixed audio thou…twitter is known for being incredibly toxic, bad, and where all good things must die, and all bad things fester like a sore… Anyway, this particular tweet – which I must disclose – is not real – is really *chef kissy finger*
This is A+ material right here.
If you do not know who Jonathan Franzen is, he is, as my fellow cursed-mind brethren, Mark, put it, “Franzen is just a middle-aged male Lena Dunham”. Much like Lena Dunham, this man needs to not speak ever, and not voice his opinions because they are terrible and myopic.
If you want to know the actual article this tweet is parodying, you can read it here – but be warned – you’re wasting a free New Yorker article (you don’t pay for it, let’s be real here people). The headline alone is enough to make you yawn from your computer/iphone/smart device. “What If We Stopped Pretending?
The climate apocalypse is coming. To prepare for it, we need to admit that we can’t prevent it.”
This was also published at 5:00AM!!!! Who has the time or bandwidth for that? (more on the word, bandwidth, later).I am here to report that Courtney Love looks refreshed and alive. (Sorry Rachel…)
I am the first person in the world to tell you the obvious about what Courtney Love did. That being said – I had the very strange & privilege of being able to meet her / be in her presence / dine next to her last week and I had to take a double take when walking past her to make sure I was seeing correctly.
BONUS FACT: She called me a “snack” as I walked by her on a stairway later that night, for context – I was wearing an oversized chunky turtleneck sweater, leather pants, and pointy boots – the polar opposite of a “snack” – but I was cozy & chic. God bless you, CL.
In case you’re thinking – but Courtney Love – widow of Kurt Cobain – why would she ever look bad. Let me take a trip down memory lane with you…
If this doesn't scream “loving wife”, and “not an alleged murderer”, then what does??? We all have our ups, and our downs, and then some more downs… But I love a good comeback story (LiLo is still waiting in the wings…)
What I’m saying is …don’t do drugs kids!!!!!! Anyway – we’re keeping it short this week on things we stan because i am tired and very busy. however another thing i love about Courtney Love is this “rendition” of Creep, by Radiohead. if you ever wondered what a breakdown looked like through musical interpretation, look no further…Nessie, patron saint of the Lesbians…
Editor’s Note: If you were to ever click on a link from The Cut and lose one of your precious limited monthly articles, this is probably the most important one ever.
Everyone, The Cut is out of control (again) and I am here for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I said previously this week, The Cut is just long-format fashion twitter – and it fucking rocks. Basically some loser from Otago University is trying to say that Nessie is just a “large eel”. This is the fake news, deep web shit your crazy uncle/aunt keeps talking about – except it has to deal with nessie. DO NOT BELIEVE IT. Nessie is real, alive, and apparently according to The Cut, a “lesbian separatist” (Yasss bitch).To quote The Cut, which I 100% agree with, “First of all, please don’t tell me I can’t see the difference between an eel (no legs … right?) and a Loch Ness monster (four legs, probably). Second of all, Nessie, to me, should not be defined by the number of legs she does or doesn’t have. She should be defined by her politics, which are: She is a lesbian separatist.”
If you don’t know what a lesbian separatist is - please google it. The point is she is NOT AN EEL!!!!!
Editor’s Note: I went to Loch Ness once and spent 18 hours there – it was wild, and you should go if you ever find yourself in that part of Scotland.
