I like her music but she deserves every ounce of hate https://www.allure.com/story/gwen-stefani-japanese-harajuku-lovers-interview quote:But I also included a question about what she felt she may have learned from Harajuku Lovers — considering its praise, backlash, and everything in between. She responded by telling me a story she’s shared with the press before about her father’s job at Yamaha, which had him traveling between their home in California and Japan for 18 years.

Well yeah to be serious about it I am aware that's really loving dumb and racist. I'd also never seen this interview until today and I am saddened she's learned nothing about the concept of cultural appropriation over the last 30 or so years. emSparkly has a new favorite as of 12:46 on Sep 4, 2023 |

Beastie posted:For some reason I had it in my head that she was the one that cheated on Gavin Rossdale but it's actually the opposite. probably because there’s an implied hierarchy where she’s Gwen Stefani, multiplatinum pop star and TV show host, and he’s just that guy from that 90s band that had like two hits making Foo Fighters music in the gap between Kurt Cobain dying and Dave Grohl starting Foo Fighters although Spotify tells me that Bush is very popular in 2023 and getting tens-to-hundreds of millions of plays across most of their catalog so

I love it when interior decor could give an epileptic an episode Maybe this was a spillover 80s thing but an electronic toy I always saw at Walmart but never got to own were these little driving games that I think used a motor to scroll a bit of paper in a loop had that a track printed on it and a little control that moved a car left and right at the front of the display. The track was angled like fzero and it did some kind of electronic magic to play horrific screeching white noise if you moved the car outside the track. I don't THINK it was a Tomy Racing Turbo, the whole setup seemed smaller and a whole lot cheaper than that

That's so bizarre. There's a restaurant near where I grew up called Fire and Ice, but it's a sort-of-almost fancy place. Like...eclectic, I guess is the word I want? But it's like "Pretend it's the 1930's" themed, not "have a seizure looking at the walls" themed.

What I'm saying is uh, I guess that tracks.
