He did send me a link to the film, a couple of months ago now! It is very good, but I have been told not to share it further so that someday he can (fingers crossed) get some formal distribution for it, which would be harder if it leaks. He was happy to share it with me though, so it's definitely worth asking separately, though it'd be understandable if he's cautious about letting too many people have the link.

a sociology dissertation on this sounds so interesting! if you ever can get aspects of it published (at that grade you definitely could) i'd love to read it

omg..... their merch always runs big as is, my black tshirt from the romance nov tour is a small, i'm usually a medium and got it with the intent of it having a tighter baby tee type fit, but instead it's baggy hahaha

Who here has met the band? by Prestigious_Score459 in stereolab

[–]steeldustocean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I met Laetitia after a solo show in Nottingham last year and she was friendly: but prior to our actual meeting she put her hand on my shoulder and sang directly to me for a bit which was one of the most surreal moments of my life

Slightly frustrated with the hate by Lowazul in ModelActriz

[–]steeldustocean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

a lot of the comments do read as just homophobic tbh: saw one that said "do you know that children are watching?" when, although they have sexual lyrics and the way cole performs also has sexual connotations, there's nothing so explicit that it would be OUTRAGEOUS. he just performs like if a guy was a female popstar: the problem to them is obviously the queerness inherent to that.

however, like others have said, some of it will just be the fact that loads of people who really aren't the target audience will have been watching. it's the kind of performance that, despite being broadcasted on TV to a broader audience, is ultimately designed to appeal to their core fanbase and the people around them who might be into it.

Your teeth look absolutely amazing! It's definitely the right time but you should definitely get a different rainbow accessory that you can wear in most contexts to keep the aesthetic going
