#Lorde’s
please feel free to scroll but i lost some of my voice and have that cool rasp thing going on and when that happens i like to sing pop songs instead of my usual corny musical repertoire

anyways, here’s lorde’s “supercut”

to make a more specific complaint: I am listening to Justin Bieber's "swag" right now. it is a grey mush made up of plate scrapings from every pop star of the last 20 years' most perfunctory dinners. it has an album of the year nomination, while lorde's "virgin" does not
is there any cultural institution more totally bankrupt in integrity than the grammy awards

listening to lorde's 2022 album "solar power" and I'm ready to say it. this is maybe the most significant changing of my mind ive experienced with regards to pop music. I do not actually hate jack antonoff

You're so close. You need to head to the library. Honestly most of these can be found easier online for free. Happy reading, Kristen.

Lorde’s “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” is super explicit for this (and no longer on my syllabus this semester haha)

Lorde's new single, ‘Hammer’, marks her return to the music scene since 2021.

Sarina reviews the single, praising how it shows Lorde's close connection to her inner self and the listeners.

I finished the erotic chapter! Moving on to ch. 5 now on Lorde’s politics of difference and the crucial distinction between real differences and distortions of difference.

I’m fueled by alarm at US brownshirt fascism and urgency that we make use of Lorde’s tools to form coalitions to smash it 🌊
Yesterday I completely finalized the chapter on how, according to Audre Lorde, we gain knowledge from feelings. Today moving on to chapter 4, on the erotic as a source of knowledge and power 🧄

The Unflinching Philosophy of Audre Lorde is gonna get done done.

Why Audre Lorde’s Work Remains As Relevant As Ever

Audre Lorde described herself as ‘Black, lesbian, mother, warrior, and poet.’ It would be impossible to speak of her and her legacy in 2026 without adding a few more words: legendary, powerful, and relevant. One of the dynamic voices whose words…
Why Audre Lorde’s Work Remains As Relevant As Ever
Audre Lorde described herself as ‘Black, lesbian, mother, warrior, and poet.’ It would be impossible to speak of her and her legacy in 2026 without adding a few more words: legendary, powerful, and relevant. One of the dynamic voices whose words caused just as much of a stir in academic conferences as it did amongst those who read her poetry, Lorde’s determination to keep talking about the need for inclusion and community continues to resonate with people across time.  Silver Press’ ‘Your Silence Will Not Protect You’ is a book that brings together Lorde the poet and Lorde the academic, as it starts with her papers and essays and ends with her poems.

Dawg you need to march your ass to the library right now. Everything you have said has been entirely incorrect.

My first taste of Ube was also in California, when I lived there back in 2015-2016. It was at a place called Lorde's Ice Cream - and it was Ube flavored ice cream. The most delicious frozen anything I have ever tasted! Ube was also not a popular thing back then, I guess. But it's becoming one now!

lorde's xray album cover with her iud gives me the energy of a teenager who really wants to make sure everyone knows they're having sex
January 14, 2026 at 5:14 PM
I'm also never not thinking about the little "soon they'll know" melody in Lorde's "what was that" 😵‍💫
January 14, 2026 at 1:33 PM
And don’t get me satarted on the Lorde of it all…

Also the showgirl dressing table being in this photoshoot is taking me out.

What I really mean to argue with, here, is the idea "you can't change a system from the inside." People change systems from the inside all the time.

I've never read Lorde's quote in its original context and I'm fully willing to believe this isn't what she meant
January 14, 2026 at 1:20 AM
I knew we strayed very far from the Lorde’s light when folks were turning their books around on shelves so they wouldn’t have to look at the colors on the spines.

I actually hate the rainbow color coded book arrangements more tho because I can tell these people have no interest in finding things
January 14, 2026 at 1:07 AM
you ever see lorde's face in a music video and think "She definitely just smelled a fart"

because i know she did.
January 13, 2026 at 11:12 PM
well, that's not what i thought Drugdealer would sound like. i feel like i SHOULD like Lankum... idk. if it actually ended at 3:56 when it fades it'd be better but still a bit... something. anyway, went into this group knowing it was Lorde's to lose and she sure didn't. amazing song, amazing album.

Also, DHS apparently doesn't understand music any more than the Bible. They used Lorde's cover of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," which is a song about horrors of war recorded for a "Hunger Games" movie soundtrack. So song would appear to warn against the images DHS shows of itself in action!

This is important in Lorde’s context as a corrective against white feminists' sentimentalism about Black suffering, which is a projection of white guilt. That just denies her agency and distorts how her voice is heard.

Lorde's erotic isn't just about joy. But by valorizing joy, Lorde takes a political position with respect not only to the value of women’s lives and women's labor but to specifically Black and queer joys, which are on all sides denied value and pathologized as excessive and deviant.

Those are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your work and Lorde's words. 💜

Here is the full linocut triptych I created from Audre Lorde’s words in “The Transformation of Silence into Language and Action” and “A Litany for Survival.” I encourage you to look up the speech and poem, and read them in their entirety.

Abolish ICE

Other stuff...

I loved Silksong obviously.
Loved One Battle After Another, but probably not as much as everyone else. (Liked it more second watch)
The Pitt also ruled so much.
I liked Lorde's new album!
