BRAT 2.0 RELEASE NIGHT

omg It's literally everything.. and more. I couldn't possibly find the words to explain how its got me feeling, so just listen to it whenever and wherever you're reading this nd feel that shit!

these remixes r golden. I got heavy into music yearsss ago thru Tay Swift, so I'm not used to a good remix from my fav.. like ever. SO here r my fave brats:

literally how did they encapsulate such a rare dynamic on Apple lyrics w/ The Japanese House?? ++ feelings fluctuating from the original album/song to this remix. It's so cool how the lyrical story is paralleled across albums, between songs. widening the scope of the lyrical landscape is so genius..charli u never cease to inspire me baby! I have this friend who suggested I listen to Japanese House earlier this year,, we met super randomly and shortly after they pmo to Chappell Roan lol

Is Everything Romantic? this songggg once again reminding me that everything is, even instead when it feels like everything might j be fleeting or momentary. Songs like these r why I started writing. Making some of my own, or remembering stories like a timestamp that I couldn't stand leaving as history,, rather than a reminder of everything I’ve feared to lose without the permanent ink. I also love Caroline Polachek. Her art is freeing. To all of those I've known that now know of her, you're very welcome. she's prob my proudest tiny desk discovery, alongside CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso.

Never in my life have I heard a track like Club classics with bbtrickz

"I must confess, I'm under stress.." eazzily and inexplicably topping me and this list. rewind u will be cool 4evaa. I just feel like diving into and living in the production forever.

brat szn is alive and ready for more! the apple is closer to the tree than ever xddd I'm still gagged! I think I prefer 2.0 <3

I don't really care to post you, then delete it. A boring story is exactly that

[radioblonde]

so I'm starting this here

I'm just some other happy, free, confused, and lonely junior in college who didn't understand how perfectly aligned those four words were back in 2012 when Red (OG and ONLY version) was released.

So, I'm taking a rhetoric of pop culture class (pop cultural analysis thru the lens of Taylor Swift AAH!) that has inspired me to finally join Tumblr after the literal decade I've spent taking influence, in every single way, from this damn site.

Like, why haven't I been blogging my life down forever? What the fuck is the use of a journal anyway? jk #diaries4ever

I write a lot about the things that I'm blessed to experience. and I'd love to share for whoever might relate or love it themselves.

I spoke to my about this last week. I used to get insecure when speaking up about my opinion sometimes, like I wouldn't say the right things or hurt the wrong feelings. She told me that sometimes--people forget that we're all going through the same shit. some are more scared than others, but only because the others were once just as scared too. we all move past it someday. So as it turns out, all those ppl were actually right when they said comparison is the thief of joy. we've all got things to say and do, whether independently or with ppl alongside. if it's in words, it's in the world. Why tuck it away in your own world, when nothing's as it seems even in the real world? We learn best when put into practice. So fuck it.

separate thought, but remember needing to put "Tumblr" when searching up anything online? it was literally the only way. why did Tumblr even fall off like that. I feel like it's so creatively unique. I get the surface-level mainstream community online kinda giving up on it, but how abt the writers, creatives, and artsy girls of our generation? are they on it, and I'm just late af??

I used to have one of those Tumblr summer bucket list accounts with my best friend growing up...without actually using Tumblr. in all fairness, we were literally on the internet at like 10 years old. a pre-teen can only learn so much at once LOL.

I started stanning Taylor Swift when her and I stopped being friends. In like 2014. iconic ass time. even tho I was literally 11, I'm so nostalgic over it lol. I wanted to be a teenager then so bad. I wonder how I'll feel about high school in 2019-2022 in the future--If that nostalgia could ever beat Tumblr nostalgia (and that's coming from someone who lived vicariously thru it on IG!)

her and I were besties for like all of high school. but our second breakup, end of senior year, was the realest. everything and everyone was embarrassing. especially me. Lowkey depressing. So, I left Miami for college, excited to meet new people or new vibes... until I eventually realized that I've never comfortably fit in anywhere just yet. Maybe I should just blame Florida. or maybe it's cause I've been made to believe I'm not Latina enough (that's bs. Ik where I come from). maybe it's all bs, and I just need to finally move to NYC with Chan, my childhood bestie. all I know is that it doesn't really matter what city I'm in if I know where I wanna go.

Third year now. Still got Taylor. and I've come to love those random experiences and memories that once felt like blades puncturing my lungs. the bright side of every situation is actually, really cute. cause fr, apart from irl limits or calamity, what you see is what you get.

Anyways, I'm bringing back Tumblr, if it's even as dead as it seems rn.
