Wandering Adventure Party

Over the course of this show I've made plans to see turnstile aka immensely worth it

@Tim_Eagon maybe idk what a breakthrough album is supposed to mean here, but “pop star who’s already a household name has a notably successful album” doesn’t feel like the right scenario given my understanding of the term. like does that mean renaissance is a breakthrough album for beyoncé?

@Tim_Eagon I agree with that and also think it is fair to say she has been extremely popular for a very long time. Brat obviously was a sort of cultural phenomenon but she was very, very well known before that

Seeing the words “breakthrough pop album Brat” makes me feel like I’m going crazy. Brat? The album by a person who charted number 1 in two countries on their previous album? The person who wrote a song for the Barbie movie the year before? The person who had top ten single almost a decade before Brat came out????

What exactly is being “broken through” here?

backroom dealings 101 is hey don't write anything down and these clowns have been doing *only write things down* version

if nothing else that semafor piece about billionaire group chats basically erases any plausible deniability left about any of these people being rich because they are smart
