Friendly reminder that A Land for All is an excellent organization that is still, even now, working to create an equitable resolution to the conflict. Please check them out:
I also strongly recommend reading through their full proposal here.

Idk if it has been noticed before but during the Spanish GP 2023 drivers press conference, Lando discreetly STARES at Carlos' crotch (at 8min58s - sadly I cant send you the YT link...). He first scratches his nose, then uses his hand to hide his downward gaze.
Margie, Raf, Cortes, and [rotation of guests] eventually do settle on a permanent name for their band, and it's To Be Honest. With albums and ep's n stuff being titled in a way that rolls into the band's name.
You always read so much into Louis’ lyrics and I’ve tried but I don’t get it. They seem so lazy to me.
Okay. I’ve held onto this ask for nearly two weeks now and I wasn’t going to answer it because it’s offensive. But I’m feeling salty today. So.
*wheels out whiteboard*
Exhibit A:
Through my cigarette, a shadow of you sticks to me to the carpet, try to ignore it, something about the way the light catches the mirror in my brain, it gives me shade.
Is that enough imagery for you? Enough metaphor?
Example 2:
Conversation is currency, shapes become a language, square eyes and sunglasses, finding faces in the trees
Is this straightforward and boring? Is this just too simple? Sorry, my bad, onto the next one.
Item 3:
It’s an old curse, dreamers diving head first, broken beaks and dead birds, can’t get through the glass.
Yeah. Super lazy this one. Really.
Anon, these are just the lyrics I wrote from memory, sat here mulling over the absurdness of this ask. I haven’t even mentioned ‘on my way to 27’ or ‘building mountains, hoping that they’ll turn to gold’ or the onomatopoeia or any of the very real language devices that are used regularly.
Louis’ songwriting is so incredibly layered and complicated; there are multiple interpretations from all different fans and the ability to give so much to so many is a talent in and of itself. Lyrically complex and lyrically confusing are not the same thing. It takes a real artist to be able to simplify the roaring emotions we all feel, it takes tangible restraint to say that actually, sometimes it doesn’t need to be opaque because the rawest form is enough. It takes something special to punch me in the heart with ‘you tell me ‘take it easy’, but it’s easier to say, wish I didn’t need so much of you, I hate to say but I do.’
It’s clearly all lost on you and I think that’s a little sad.
