(to be fair, there was some rehabilitation going on in the years beforehand, when lots of people started to feel retroactively ashamed that bush was their president)

a pokémon afficionado friend of mine has informed me that there is a pokémon called "Grimer" that evolves into one called "Muk"

so close

Azealia Banks KEEP GOING

flappy bird, Monday, 13 August 2018 22:47 (five years ago) link

Grimes eventually will totally restore her reputation for sure

I said as much in May but things have really snowballed since then.

flappy bird, Monday, 13 August 2018 22:48 (five years ago) link

Grimes, Banks, and Musk are all trending on Twitter at the mo

kinda upthread but as far as musicians whose stature has plummeted this quick, the recent Laetitia Sadier tweet discovery led to a pretty stark about face on here, tho obv not to this level.

xp lol if Drudge sirens were ever warranted, this is it!

flappy bird, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:00 (five years ago) link

Sadier has recanted the Peterson tweet

Number None, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:11 (five years ago) link

I know. I was still surprised at how upset many people were on here and elsewhere. I mean, I get it to a point. This Grimes thing though is absolutely wild - Azealia keep going keep going keep going!

flappy bird, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:13 (five years ago) link

This is really unfortunate. Grimes’s music at its best is legitmately special and I hate to see her become a carnival sideshow.

What are you getting at, Whiney? “A carnival sideshow” = a completely non-musical gossip distraction

flappy bird, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:37 (five years ago) link

Whiney had those queued up; he had to use 'em somehow...

empire bro-lesque (morrisp), Monday, 13 August 2018 23:40 (five years ago) link

I missed you Whiney. Hope all’s good with you

Wait was azealia even at the house?

Trϵϵship, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:57 (five years ago) link

somehow it seems more implausible to me now than this afternoon

Trϵϵship, Monday, 13 August 2018 23:58 (five years ago) link

Has Grimes tweeted anything about this special-sounding weekend?

empire bro-lesque (morrisp), Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:05 (five years ago) link

I don’t think so

Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:16 (five years ago) link

I want someone to make a poorly drawn comic about grimes and elon having a really dumb lsd trip upstairs as azealia texts them from a guest room on the other side of the mansion

mh, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:17 (five years ago) link

grimes hasn’t tweeted since the 2nd so she could be on day 13 tripping!

mh, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link

lol day 11, brain fart

mh, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link

Business Insider has a secondary source that confirmed Banks was at Musk’s house over the weekend. I guess Musk and Grimes were there too but too distracted to pay attention to her/work on music? Makes more sense than her chilling fully by herself in a stranger’s house.

Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:25 (five years ago) link

Nothing about any of these people makes sense

One thing I try to remember is that it turned out Bankd eas telling the truth more or else in the Russell Crowe incident, even though no one really believed her at first.

Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 00:41 (five years ago) link

yeah I just saw something on that, how terrible the whole thing was covered like she was crazy than RZA admitted Crowe spit on her and it got no press! or at least I never saw it after the initial uproar

I hate Elon Musk but I also fucking hate Azealia tweets and they’re 99% troll bullshit so I don’t find any joy in her attacking Musk, usually I wouldn’t give a fuck to see them tear at each other throats but I legit loved Grimes and I’m not liking her as part of this circle of terrible people.

Not very excited about what she’s up to creatively at this point... hopefully she shuts my mouth and makes another great album but it’s not a good look so far.

imagine coming down from a trip and you're in a room with a tripping elon musk. no wonder she keeps tripping

welcome to realiti

Being a total cokehead with your bf Elon Musk sounds awful as a life but not necessarily bad for creative purposes

No it's the other way around

Thanks for posting that, flappy. Visions is a record that means a lot to me.

Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 14 August 2018 03:53 (five years ago) link

I fall in love the only love I'm capable anymore allow basic personality shifts and my memory loss to set in as the overshadowing there in nothing more important then Grimes...then let's see what this body does......am I a soul a body one of what ever house and thus morals and personalitys arising from those house no I am a mix of environment and action...and I will love Grimes....
