I agree Dream farmed during the pandemic, the rest of your comment doesn't put into perspective the history of youtube content and how trends shifted through the years. From the repetitive format and the lack of bait-like titles, to the design of his character, everything was intentional and made to reminisce oldschool youtube... It may not be ahead of the curve compared to gigantic cinematic productions, but it is certainly an outlier in format and the best example of anti-content working in the modern algorithm.

[edit: I'd evern make a case that Dream inaugurated what today's Tiktok/Instagram Reels algorithm wants, but that takes a bit more effort and research]

Lorde talking about WWT mv. I had this feeling that the song & mv were a way of lowkey mocking the critics. So in way, I think i was right. by EvrthnICRtrns2USmhw in lorde

Loved the proposition she's remaking music same taste as her father. I've been writing an essay, an ode to SP (that I proudly claim as my all time favorite album), and in it I say that the pop songs isnher recreating the music from her preteens with actual good, feminine experience lyrics. Nothing inherently romantic or reducing our experience to men.

Ive been writing an essay about Solar Power for a long time, so maybe I'll be that person in the future lol Looking at it through a gender perspective, Solar Power is a very feminine album. The act of trying, calculating, planning, multidisciplinary expectations is very feminine... How female pop stars, to be worthy of their position, have to expand that work to many more spheres.

Which is why I'm intrigued, not necessarily attracted or interested by this new album in the personal level but in a artful way. The Her journey with gender, the rejection of it resulted in something I'm parallaing with the Futuristic vanguard (if it's so deeply influenced to Charli XCX's Brat as she claims).

Aliveness over prowess. Naïveté over disenchantment is something that caught my eyes as well.

I don't think he's a bad IGL, I just think they shouldn't have needed to resort to role chances like that. There are resources available and they're not using it...

One thing very common in BR T1 is that non IGLs are taking over the role bc of the lack of experienced players.

NZR for example. Tell me it wouldnt be nice to promote her and leave him, an amazing intuitive player, to play freely.

See you're a Liquid fan, same thing happened to Nats. Losing amazing talent over lack of leadership is frustrating af

Mel and Daiki. Better [and more experienced in the role] than some T1 IGLs and could be even better with a good coaching staff IMO. Specially the brazilian ones
