[sandinmybed]

okay yeah im only 25 and i grew up with so much more queer representation than people even just 5-10 years older than me but GOD what i wouldnt have given to have people like chappell roan or heartstopper and its cast to look up to back then! imagining my 12 year old self watching that show... i would have cried my little heart out tbh idc if its a bit saccharine sometimes. and i can't even imagine what chappell roan would've done to me. im so happy young queers have these things but god imagine

[eldritch-ace]

Happy first birthday to The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess and my fave song on the album (California makes me cry every time)

[thedeadedhooman]

that urge to roast anyone and everyone that trolls jared for attending the chappell roan concert at acl 2024. y'all are just mad cuz it wasn't your fave who did it first. touch grass please.

[tamaharu]

ill be so real seeing slurs get thrown around more and more online is getting pretty fucking weird

[sodacowboy]

love that all my stress dreams are “zombie” apocalypse themed lately

[clownacademygraduate]

The fact that Chappell Roan’s fans genuinely believe that being her fan means she owes them her time and attention 24/7 is ridiculous to me

“But she wouldn’t be famous without our support” yeah because you’re listening to her music as a personal favour to her and not for your own enjoyment

“But she’s a millionaire while most of us can barely afford to eat” the existence of people without a privilege doesn’t justify the harassment of those with that privilege. Everyone should have a right to privacy not just the people who are suffering the most

“If she didn’t want this to happen she shouldn’t have became famous” holy victim blaming Batman just because something is common consequence of an action doesn’t make it ok, doesn’t mean the person who did the action deserves it, and doesn’t mean that person has given up their right to complain about it just because they did the action. How many times do we have to go over this

“She should quit being a singer if she wants privacy” if you don’t learn about boundaries I promise you she’ll do just that

[voncel]

Cigarettes After Sex is so Chardee I don’t even know why

Also it’s totally possible Dennis used to to listen to The Smiths as a teen (male manipulator music goes hard 🔥)

Mac is like canonically into musicals (and then he’s surprised he’s gay)

Frank likes jazz, pretty sure Shadynasty’s was a jazz club

I think Charlie would listen to classical if Mac didn’t tell him it was rich people music therefore unenjoyable by them, so he never went after it ‘cause he genuinely believes he can’t listen to it, his ears are too poor

Can’t forget Dennis canonically owns Rick Astley’s “Whenever You Need Somebody” on CD

[lovelaceisntdead]

So. Chappell Roan.

[mhaccunoval]

i do think it's funny (and fun) that my music associations are so different across verses

[mangosundae]

Bought another raven statue today and learned that Roan means raven, so introducing Chappell Roan, singing “HOT TO CROW!”

Also can I just say I paid FIVE DOLLARS??? FOR THIS STATUE????? AND SHE WAS ORIGINALLY $30?????? Joann’s was doing a big Halloween sale and she was literally the last one on the shelf. She was made for me. God bless u joann.
