Appropriate is the perfect way to describe his outfits. Some stupid people are saying he's dressing straight now and they miss his rings and how gay he looks. The stereotypes 🙄🙄🙄🙄 At that football game he looked fabulous with those cropped pants and sweater vest and pearl necklace and beautiful trench coat. It was so stylish but also appropriate to a football game. Same with these golf outfits. You could disect each piece of clothing and each of them have so much flare, like the flare pants heh but still he fits in for the occasion. I love how he dresses when he's not all glammed up on stage for a concert.
I totally agree. I think he always looks so stylish and event appropriate. I love his personal style when he’s not working, too.
People are so weird about him. When he was growing his hair out and wearing those shirts unbuttoned down to his navel, so many people hated it. Said it looked “too feminine”. When he started wearing the patterned suits? Hated it and harassed Harry Lambert right off Twitter complaining about how he was trying to make Harry “look gay”. Now other people are complaining when not dressed to be on stage that he is dressing “too straight”.
I have no idea what makes them think some piece of clothing is “straight” or “gay”, but I’m pretty sure that Harry (who’s been pretty clear about believing clothes have no gender, and probably doesn’t think they have sexualities either) is still going to be queer no matter what tf he’s wearing.
I agree with you that he looked fantastic at the football game and he looked terrific at the Masters. People are allowed to not like things, but this is really ridiculous.

genuinely though i consider the issue with harry styles to be less to do with styles himself and more to do with the breathless coverage of him as though out queer men, in particular out queer men of colour, have not been doing the same, and more, and better, for longer
he is, personally, fine. his sense of style re: femme clothing is atrocious but like that's my right as a femme dyke to judge him. the FACT that he plays with gender in his styling without telling the world What It Means is not a real problem tho? there is no solution required re: his behaviour here.
i think a man says obnoxious things about movies and spends a lot of time navel gazing and i have not liked a single dress he has ever worn, but he is not the guy out here claiming to be the first or the most or the best Gender. he has made no claims to be representing the queer community or any subset of it, while also doing his best to like, acknowledge that he has a substantial queer following that he wants to feel welcome at his concerts.
this is such a non-problem for me to have a feeling about, but i do! have a whole feeling about it! i just think that like, we can probably let this one lie? or at the very least, tackle the Coverage that elevates whiteness and queer ambiguity above the contributions of explicitly out queer people to the Culture rather than going This Man's Bad Fashion Choices Can't Be Queer

hello, do you know some stories similar to the hunger games but with L and H? Thank you
Hi, anon! There are definitely some Hunger Games AUs out there. Not enough to make a full rec, so I'll just put all the ones I know of here for you!
Who Painted the Moon Black by throughthedark (E, 95k)
“People died,” Harry whispers so quietly Louis strains to hear. “People died, and I killed some of them. How does life just go on after something like that?”
Louis shakes his head. “I don't know. It just does.”
Hunger Games AU where Louis Tomlinson is district six's victor from the 69th Hunger Games and Harry Styles is district seven's victor from the 72nd Hunger Games.
Sweet Blasphemy by blowmeharry (M, 67k)
Harry lived a normal life in the Capitol until his best friend Liam and him were selected as tributes in The Hunger Games to fight to the death, along with three other friends they later meet.
Us Against the World by Chelsea Frew / @chelsea-frew (M, 56k)
It's time for the 58th Hunger Games. 18-year-old Louis, the victor of the 56th Hunger Games, is to be mentor to the latest tributes from District 4. It is the worst job in the world. Making it even worse is that one of those tributes is 16-year-old Harry, Louis' secret boyfriend.
The stakes are life and death. Can Harry do what needs to be done to emerge as the victor? Can Louis help him from the outside? Against all odds, can these two be brought back together—or will Louis be saying goodbye to Harry forever?
'Til I Change My Luck by FannyT, RedOrchid (M, 41k)
“Can I have a pink flamingo, please?” the person next to him says, and Louis does a double take. The boy leaning across the bar to say something else to the bartender is not in costume, for one, and exudes money, for another. His shirt alone—a flimsy, barely-there thing in gold and crystals, unbuttoned almost to the navel—probably costs more than what a victor receives in a year. Louis feels a spark of hope; this might actually get him somewhere.
“Here, on me,” he says, as the bartender puts down a revoltingly pink concoction on the bar. “And I’ll have the same.”
The boy next to him looks up, sees Louis, and his eyes widen a little. Good. Instant recognition is par for the course, with Louis being such a recent victor and all, but the way the boy’s pupils dilate and his breath catches slightly in his throat—Louis can definitely work with that.
A Hunger Games AU. Starring victor!Louis, capitolite!Harry, literal!captain!Niall, two shady deck hands and a lot of sailing.
Freeze This Moment In A Frame by hot_damn_louis (T, 26k)
Harry just wants to protect his family. Louis doesn't want to marry Eleanor. Somehow, Louis and Harry just fit.
Aka Hunger Games au.
it comes and goes in waves by orphan_account (T, 10k)
The 50th Hunger Games mark a Quarter Quell. Louis knows his chances of being selected in the Reaping are doubled as the Capitol decides to honor the Quell by selecting two males and two females from each District.
~ or an au feat. district four harry and louis ~
Victory by @juliusschmidt (E, 6k)
By the time Louis finds Harry, it’s too late for both of them.
[Hunger Games AU in which Louis is the most recent victor and he's to mentor Harry, the tribute from District Nine.]
Wear A Necklace Of Hope (Side By Side With Me) by sweaterpawstyles (E, 5k)
"Lou," Harry's voice was high-pitched and small. He was so small. Everything about him seemed so fragile and Louis was terrified he would break him.
He knew it was too late though. Louis couldn't break him because Harry was already broken.
Or A Hunger Games AU about Louis and Harry's life as victors in District 4
you'll always be my hero (even though you've lost your mind) by girlmadeofstars (M, 5k)
He's only fourteen when he falls in love for the first time, fourteen when he meets's Louis Tomlinson in the bathroom at school, and he shouldn't be so lucky so young, but he is. (Until he isn't.)
 Hunger Games AU
Glory and Gore by orphan_account (G, 2k)
“Quite the mystery aren't you, Louis Tomlinson?” He didn't know what to say to the crowds of people. What did they expect to hear, from the boy who didn't speak?
Or No one expected him to win. He was suppose to die 15 seconds into the game, but then there was Harry.
Looking to the sky to save me by starsandnightskies (G, 2k)
Louis was almost positive he'd never make it out of the arena. Almost.
and we all know what we've done by keepthemusicplaying (NR, 2k)
they'll have supper on the sundeck, and louis will eat every single thing on his plate. he'll bathe next, asking harry to wash him, to stay with him. so harry picks up a rag and washes away the fear and guilt on louis' tan skin. louis will hum under his breath, and close his eyes. and harry will shampoo his hair, letting his fingers run and dance in feather like hair. when louis is bathed, harry will guide him to bed. louis likes to sleep naked, so harry will just strip and get in bed beside louis.
or the one where it's after louis has been crowned a victor, and he likes to drown himself in the tub.
[Okay there ended up being more than I thought! lol Enjoy!]

hello! <3 could i please request a ship thing for harry potter (golden era) and brooklyn nine nine? my name is noelle & i’m a bisexual cis female (she/her pronouns). i like older guys and around my age for gals. my fav romance tropes are arranged marriage & forbidden romance, and (i think) my love language is physical touch. i’m also an entp & gryffindor! i LOVE to travel & i value experiences over possessions. my family is very important to me and i also really want to have children in the future but not necessarily get married. i’m a people person but i enjoy having some quiet time to myself. i like think i’m pretty nice, but do not cross me 👀 also, my dream job is either a comedian, working in film or something to do with traveling <3 i’m also considered “the funny one” & the ‘wild child.’ i also struggle/have struggled with anxiety, depression, substance abuse & eating disorders. i love to read books and write (mostly scripts & poetry.) i love my job as a barista and i also enjoy going on spontaneous adventures! i love camping, swimming and anything to do with nature. i have a navel piercing, a sagittarius (my zodiac sign!) arrow tattoo below my neck and a fig tattoo on the back of my arm. my style is very 70s mixed with early 2000s. i thrift basically everything i own. i’m 5’3 & have dark blonde hair with blue eyes, i’m pretty chubby but i have a great ass lol. thank you so so much!! :)
Of course!! I ship you with Ron Weasley and Amy Santiago! Btw, depression and anxiety sucks I feel you and I'm sorry about that :( hope you are doing better :)
Ron might seem like an odd choice, but I think the two of you would be great romantically, but if I'm wrong, feel free to correct me. Ron was over the moon when he met you and he soared even higher when he learned you were from the same house, both Gryffindors. It seemed like fate, didn't it? He worships the ground you walk on, to him you are nothing less than a goddess and he wants to be worthy of you, and he will. Ron doesn't have a lot of travel experience, but he would love to travel with you, as it's something you enjoy and he wants to make you happy, so you can pack your bags and choose your destination. Ron loves to read next to you, hearing you recite poetry is something very pleasant and calming for him, your voice calms him down.
Spontaneous adventures is practically your couple's hobby, he loves to take you on adventures, even if they are dangerous and you both almost died at one point. Ron would love to have a family with you, redhead kids with your beautiful brown hair, whatever. What matters is you, in the end. Although he would love to marry you, if you don't that's fine, Ron will be happy to just have you with him. And, oh, about your body... Ron thinks you're perfect in every way, from your scalp to the tips of your toes and he likes to grab your ass.
Ron will try to help you as much as possible with your depression and anxiety, he hates seeing you this way and wants to see you all the time. Give him some time and maybe he'll make it, this man just wants your love.
Tumblr media
Amy is known as grimace and little spontaneous, always attached to her schedules and roles. Controlled and a perfectionist, but she stopped looking for perfection when she fell head over heels in love with you. Amy is very attached to you in a way that even she herself doesn't understand, but she's come to want to be glued to you all day if she gets the chance. She loves to touch you, not always in a sexual context, but things like hugs, soft kisses and gentle caresses are very common love language between the two of you. Reading is a hobby of yours, you two are almost always seen reading together, a good book or even a fanfic (depending on the context), she will love to read anything you write, from drafts to even a book.
You both love your work and it's very common for Amy to stop by the coffee shop/bar (?) you work for to grab a coffee and exchange some jams with you before heading to the 99, it's her little routine. She's not the outdoorsy type, but she wouldn't mind camping with you, although she loves watching you swim because you look so sexy, according to her. Amy loves your tattoos and if you let her, she will touch your piercing often because she finds it so attractive. She loves your jokes and will help you get your dream job if that's what you wants.
Amy will try to help you with your depression, anxiety and eating disorders as much as she can, if you allow her to. She loves everything about you, your body, your personality and even your height. Everything about you is perfect for her. Oh, she would love to have a family with you.

I read the worst fanfic.... And survived?? :0
I would like to start this off with, I mean no harm with this post. And no disrespect meant to the original author. The thing was just bad. But please don't go send the author hate. Im just talking about what I saw wrong here.
I think we are all acquainted with the fanfiction called my immortal. If you don't know of this... masterpiece(?) I envy you, and you should skip this. There is time for you to save yourself.
I somehow managed to read this in school, on the school computer. And I was mostly doing it as a joke, reading the first chapter out loud to my friend. When I reached the second chapter is where it got really wired, like the absolute mischaracterization is god awful. Dumbledor yelling at Ebony and Draco for you-know-whating, let alone calling, them 'motherfuckers'. Its just wild. I was crying from laughing, and my friend had to genuinely ask if I was ok. I was not.
I made the mistake of reading at home, the whole thing. In almost one setting. Just for reference if you ignored my warning, the chapters where about as long as what you have read so far. So they did not take me long to read at all. Then again there was 44.
As bad as this was, I will say it was fucking funny. All the character's are cannon harry potter character's, but made 'goth'. I.e. The author made the all edgy vampires with ass names, and black hair. For example, Harry was Vampire, Ron was Darkness, Past Voldemort called himself Satan, as that was his middle name. Even though he had a cannon one.
Some of them are just blatant miss-spellings. Snape was Snoop, or Snake a lot, and my favorite one, Nevil was Navel. I just found that one really funny. There was a lot of words spelled wrong, sometimes to the point of it being unreadable.
I would consider myself to be a more alterative style, I like punk, grunge, emo and other things of that sort. I am however aware of goth culture and bands. So the fact that they were almost all goths, spelled goffic/goffik. And they just had to be all vampire satanists, and only where black, was just horrible.
The worst part for me was when anytime music was brought up it was my chemical romance (emo), Lincoln Park (alt), green day (punk) and slipknot (nu metal) I was pretty annoyed. As none of those are gothic bands. The only one im not sure on is Good Charlotte, I have not heard of that one so I dont know what to say it is. I have a good guess its not goth. Please let me know if im wrong on this. But the other ones are bands I listen to and really like.
Also all the mentions of serious topics in this very unserious, troll fic, just made me feel wired? They felt unneeded and just there to be there. They where not mentioned in a respectful way at all. In one of these topics, there was an authors note about how that it was a serious topic. And it was just vagally mentioned. There was so much brushing over of things that irl would not be brushed over. Like sa, sh, and attempted, are just mentioned and then the characters just go on.
I know it's meant to be like this, and I knew about it being called the worst fanfic before going in. But my god, it was horrible.
If you had any criticism you where 'preppy' so 'skrew urself, u suk!111' Im being fully honest the authors note's where more entreating the the 'plot' if you can call it that. The mc named Ebony Darkness dementia way. Smth like that. Has to go back in time to seduce Voldemort so that he wont make her kill Vampire, as she dose not want to kill him because she loves him. If she dose not kill him he will kill Draco, and she loves Draco.
The author keeps saying that Ms. Ebony is not a marry su. When she very much is, she makes her argument that Ebony is not perfect, because she has depression. Yet latter on in the story Ebony is complaining about how all guys fall in love with her, and that she wishes she where ugly. Like- ermmm... If you are asking to be 'ugly' you are most likely a Marry Su.
I feel like I could make this so much longer, but its already nearly an essay. (tbh might write one for fun lol). And it's only my first post on this blog, Im going to end it here. I could go on, as I have yet to mention all the hints at gay and bi fetish, or how some of the adult characters where made pedos.
Love,
Sunny

Let Them Wait
by FlowerChild28
Louis couldn’t take it. Couldn’t take one more moment of seeing Harry’s floral shirt unbuttoned to practically his navel, singing and serenading him, giving Louis fuck me eyes until he could hardly stand upright. Louis had never done this before. Pulled Harry off the stage mid-concert feigning a “bathroom break” and cornered him in a dressing room, dying of need and want.
“We have to get back,” Harry said, grinning, looking pleased with himself. Louis had him up against the door, attacking his neck with precision, Harry letting out little yelps of pleasure that sent Louis’ own body spiraling.
Louis was blind with wanting Harry. He didn’t care who knew. Who saw. What would happen. He had to have him.
Or
Louis stops a 2015 concert to go get blown by Harry backstage...

hello! i would like to request a ship (🧁) for barbie, mbav or harry potter golden era! my name is noelle & i’m a bisexual cis female (she/her pronouns). my fav romance tropes are arranged marriage & forbidden romance, and (i think) my love language is physical touch. i’m also an entp & gryffindor! i LOVE to travel & i value experiences over possessions. my family is very important to me and i also really want to have children in the future but not necessarily get married. i’m a people person but i enjoy having some quiet time to myself. i like think i’m pretty nice, but do not cross me 👀 also, my dream job is either a comedian, working in film or something to do with traveling <3 i’m also considered “the funny one” & the ‘wild child.’ i also struggle/have struggled with anxiety, depression, substance abuse & eating disorders. i love to read books and write (mostly scripts & poetry.) i love my job as a barista and i also enjoy going on spontaneous adventures! i love camping, swimming and anything to do with nature. i have a navel piercing, a sagittarius (my zodiac sign!) arrow tattoo below my neck and a fig tattoo on the back of my arm. my style is very 70s mixed with early 2000s. i thrift basically everything i own. i’m 5’3 & have dark blonde hair with blue eyes, i’m pretty chubby but i have a great ass lol. thank you so so much!! :)
ofc!!
(🧁) I ship you with...
Blaise Zabini! Immediately have a forbidden love thing going on because knowing him and his friend group AND family, being with a Gryffindor is a huge absolutely not. He's also very serious so he'd not only hide it well but convince whoever he needs to otherwise. His love language is also giving physical touch and maybe gift giving because he definitely is not a words of affirmations type of guy. Also love travelling? He's taking you wherever you want. I feel like he would not only take you anywhere you want, but also surprise you with new experiences! I don't think Blaise would necessarily want to marry, probably due to complications and just feeling like its too much, but kids? If it's someone he loves, I think he would lowkey want them. I think you being not nice when needed is perfect in this situation because he won't feel like he heavily needs to be taking care of you in that aspect (does that make sense?) and last but not least; height difference. i rest my case.
-
join the sleepover here!

Miss Caro, what do you mean with this post: You're telling me this might all be for the love of Ted Lasso. What happened now???
Wellllll
Disclaimer: none of this is confirmed, it's based on speculation, I don't know any of these people, it's just fun drama that, if you look at it closely, is steeped in misogyny and has shades of... Other celebrity scandals steeped in misogyny, of the recent past and yesteryear.
For background--
Olivia Wilde dated Jason Sudeikis, to whom I shall hence refer to as "Ted Lasso", a former SNL comedian, erstwhile lover of one January Jones, and pal of Fred Armisen (which... again, the professional makeover Jason has done for Ted Lasso is incredible) for about ten years, during which they got engaged, but never married, and had two children.
Florence Pugh was in a relationship for a few years with Zach Braff, "director", TV sitcom actor, and navel gazer to whom I shall hence refer to as "Scrubs". This relationship did not progress beyond dating and cohabitating, as far as we know, but Florence took it VERY seriously. She defended it many times when people called out their 21 year age gap, and she was pretty aggressively defensive on both social media and the press. Recently (as in this summer) Florence went on a vacation with one Will Poulter (he's just Will Poulter, I respect him as an actor) who had, I shall note for the record, GOTTEN RECENTLY BUFF. Will and Florence were in Ari Aster's 2019 film Midsommar together, and are presumably at least friends, and Florence was seen jumping around the water with Will in a bikini, looking quite bangin', and as someone with notable breasts myself, I shall say, I would not PERSONALLY be cavorting in such a sense with a RECENTLY BUFF FRIEND if I wasn't trying to fuck him, but Florence got really pissed that the internet DAREST COMMENT ON THAT BEING A CUTE LOOK and said no way, Will Poulter was not touching her black widow!!!! Shortly after, she and Scrubs broke up.
That's not super relevant, I'd just like to state that I personally think she and Will Poulter probably did hook up, and that's fine, but like. You know. She's already got a movie coming out with Scrubs now, so the damage is done.
Let us return to the relationship of Olivia Wilde and Ted Lasso. It is actually pretty unclear--did Olivia start dating Watermelon Sugar High Giver and Shania Twain enthusiast Harry Styles before she and Jason officially called it quits? Or did they not? Officially, the record has Harry and Olivia dating after she and Jason broke up, but let's be real, nobody is going to like... cop to cheating if they don't have to. Some would have Olivia casting Harry Styles, then fucking him behind Ted Lasso's back on the set of Don't Worry Darling. Others would have her dating him prior to him being cast.
Either way, I think that it's kind of impossible to know, especially when you're dealing with a long term, very serious relationship involving shit like kids and mortgages and such as that, because... Chances are, those bitches were separated for a while before it ENDED ended. Long term couples do shit like that. And I WOULD POSIT that there had likely been another!!! Not 1D-related mess!!!! That led to the downfall of Olivia and Ted Lasso, whether or not she was still with Ted Lasso when she first got with Harry Styles.
ENTER: Keeley Hazell. Keeley is a model and actress, who let's be real, none of us really know about, but who rather crucially appeared in the film Horrible Bosses 2. (Disclaimer: have not seen this movie, will probably never see this movie even though I am attracted to Jason Bateman, let's not unpack it.) Who else appeared in this film? One Ted Lasso. (Also: Chris Pine, which throws me a little, but I'm gonna dismiss it for now because I honestly don't think Chris Pine has the time or the social bandwidth to keep up with this shit. When all this was going down, for all I know Chris Pine was getting cucked by Sebastian Stan, so............. other problems, maybe??? OH TO HAVE BEEN INVITED TO ROBERT PATTINSON'S BIRTHDAY BASH.). When did this movie film? Between September 2013 and June 2014. Don't ask me why it took that long to film, because the point is: when Ted Lasso releases... Ted Lasso, there is a principle character named Keeley (who, actually, is a model and is the main Romantic Sexy Girl of the show). And who does Jason Sudeikis conveniently begin dating after his split from Olivia? Keeley Hazell.
Am I suggesting that it's weird for a man to JUST SO HAPPEN to meet a woman while he's with his current fiancee/babies' mother and then start dating her about 7 years later, after he and his partner broke up, without ANY prior romantic attraction/attention/whatsoever? I don't know. Maybe they were open. Maybe he and Keeley somehow had a totally platonic friendship for... again, 7 years. But I want you to look at this as a paranoid individual would after having a long-ass relationship end. Would you.... not wonder?
This is to say, I think the narrative of the Olivia/Ted Lasso relationship and breakup is a lot more complicated than people wanna admit; that he is not a perfect cuddly Ted Lasso man in real life, and is a flawed individual like any of us, but especially like rich white men who are friends with Fred Armisen might be; and that... Yeah, bro. That custody paper thing? Might've been a hint that he's a douchebag.
ON TO THE PRESENT DAY:
It recently resurfaced that Scrubs, noted for making movies that I personally could never take seriously even if you paid me to, is a friend of Ted Lasso, to the point that he directed an episode of the show Ted Lasso in its first season. Who made a cameo in that episode which was hilariously??? Cut??? ONE FLORENCE PUGH.
Do I find it incredibly cringe that she was doing a cameo on a sitcom as an up and coming Meryl Streepian type actress because her old-ass boyfriend was directing it? Yes. Yes I do. Whoever had that cut, even if it was Scrubs himself, did her a favor.
But perhaps crucial to this story is the fact that Florence seems to lose all sense of dignity around Scrubs. She defended (I find this compilation very funny) their relationship (when, to stress, she could've just said nothing, a thing she seems to have learned to do now that everyone is putting her on a feminist pedestal) all the time. And tbh, Florence is a grown woman who can do what she wants to do, I personally don't even have an issue with the age gap (I have a bigger issue with the fact that it was doing nothing for her career and tbh, seemed to be a relationship she defended rather immaturely when the mature thing would've just been to go about her day--if you date older, people are gonna say shit, 'tis the world) but she clearly cared A LOT. She cared a lot to let this man, who has not been a "hot director" in many years, direct her during a time in her career when she can and should work with the big dogs. That says a lot. I didn't like Mother!, but damn, at least when JLaw did it she did it for a NAME.
Florence also clearly likes a middle-aged white guy who's seen better days, because, as has been discussed here, she was out there liking those Johnny Depp posts. Might I suggest: Florence Pugh is probably not a horrid person. But she is at an age where, if you have been... I don't know, sheltered from the real world by focusing on your acting career a lot and shacking up with an older man who you think the world of, who you think knows everything about everything... I could see you becoming a bit sheltered. Perhaps naive. I say that as someone not much older than her.
So: is it out of the realm of possibility that what actually happened is that Ted Lasso and Olivia had a messy breakup, probably after Florence was hired to do DWD, and Florence sided with Ted Lasso because Scrubs sided with Ted Lasso and Florence though Scrubs was the hottest of shit. Could it be that tension grew between the women, and perhaps other shit unwounded and devolved from there? Could it be that at the end of the day, this began with Florence Pugh caring way too much about her boss's sex life?
Because, I don't know about you, but a lot of us have had bosses with horrible personal lives, which perhaps even affected the workplace at some point... And we've just had to keep our heads down, do the job, and collect the check. Perhaps I would suggest that as a woman in her mid-twenties who's never been married or had kids, and whose most significant relationship we know of was with Dr. John Dorian, has no business really getting into the weeds of a decade-long relationship with children behind ween two people who honestly both seem pretty messy? (If Florence did in fact do this, idk that she did.)
And might I also suggest that, considering the fact that Shia denies strife with Florence (not that we can trust him, the man who repeatedly abuses women and somehow came out of this with the best look??? Almost like that's what he intended and for her own personal bullshit, Florence fed into it) and the video with Olivia never alludes in any kind of direct way to Florence and Shia not getting along--she only says the immortal Miss Flo getting a wakeup call line, which could've been about anything--and Florence herself refuses to confirm any bad blood with Shia... The issue was never Shia? The issue was Florence Pugh caring way too much about a friend's personal life, a friend who was initially the friend of her boyfriend? To the point that she's helped torpedo a press tour for an entire movie???
As someone who is again, basically Florence's age and very well-acquainted with sheltered, perhaps initially well-meaning women who think they know it all because their boyfriends quote Keats, also this age... I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility.
And to be clear: I actually think Florence is a fab actress, and I've enjoyed some vibes from her prior to the Depp thing making me... question shit. I actually have never liked Olivia Wilde--but the way all of this seems to come back to her relationship with her baby's father, who people seem to be sympathizing with because she's... fucking a known sex object now? And not looking the way a mom "should" look? While he plays an "aw shucks" guy people have now identified with him onscreen? Idk, seems a lot like how I've seen regular, ordinary women get framed by their social circles after they get out of relationships with their children's fathers, who perhaps are a bit more complex than they seem on the surface.
Like, listen, at this point I'm sure it's about a lot more than whatever it started out as. But do I think it could've started as a simple "my boyfriend's friend who I think is my friend even though we'll probably stop talking within a year of my breaking up with my boyfriend is being TREATED BAD by his BAD BAD BABY MAMA and I'm MAD about it"...? Yeah. Because humans are inherently petty and kinda stupid, and I think Florence has some growing up to do in general, based on how she's handled this whole press thing and the fact that it affects... Her actual career with which she makes money, probably.
AAAAAND SCENE.

“The thing is, I’m not even sure Harry wrote/ writes any of his songs. I’m trying to trace a signature of his songwriting style throughout his career, and the only things I can come up with are 1. stultifyingly repetitive lyrics, and 2. self-pity/ infantile egotism. ”
he has no style to trace all of his songs are reflections of his co writers. happily with savan kotecha could easily be on tmh if the instrumental was changed, olivia witw and stockholm sound distinctly like julian/john tracks, we all know louis was the only one holding a pen when perfect was written. you can also easily track the difference in sound between his first, second and third album by seeing which co-writers he had and which of them slowly left leaving only kid harpoon. one of the main complaints that critics had about walls was that it sounded too similar to 1d songs and although to some extent i wish he didn’t try to cater to what he thought fans would want, they sounded like 1d songs because louis was the one writing those songs in 1d. lt2 will sound different but it’s a natural development and he’ll never lose what makes his songs distinctly his because he’s an actual songwriter with an actual style
A friend sent me these thoughts - and I can’t judge as I’ve not heard any of the songs on HS3 except As It Was and 16 bars of Music for a Sushi Restaurant, but I thought it was pretty accurate:
Harry’s process: Harry talks about other artists he likes and would like to sound like. Then Kid and Tyler write the melodies. Harry sits in the room with them, throws out concepts and ideas for lyrics, and they use some of the word salad we got from HH because let’s face it, HH is navel-gazing, solipsistic, all about Harry himself and his feelings about the Artist Harry Styles’ life during the pandemic, and has absolutely nothing to do with universal messages or connecting with other human beings including his fans, or the difficulties other people faced during the pandemic. HH is about his road trip, his girlfriends, sex, cute drug use, quirky nonsensical stuff bc it’s whimsical and meaningless lessons from his pandemic experience. Then Kid and Tyler add stuff, they all participate in the production, and Harry turns a few knobs for his album booklet photos.
Fwiw I get zero Louis vibes from HH. The only song with lyrics plausibly relating to him (and England) is LOML. Other than that, none of the lyrics relate in any way, shape or form to Louis. They are about other lovers, Olivia, Kid’s wife, imaginary girlfriends for a concept - I don’t know or care but there is zero Louis in there.
Harry can’t read music, can’t really play instruments, can’t talk about the songwriting process except as cute anecdotes about himself. He can’t sing or act very well. So why the hype? Your point about Walls having One Direction’s sound is well taken. Louis was the architect for those 1D hit songs. This review written for Walls now fits Harry’s House better (with minor edits):
You have to hand it to the former One Direction member: It’s not easy to make pop songs this forgettable. Listeners may feel like goldfish. Every time they spin the record, they’ll encounter the same bland dozen songs for what seems like the first time. Hey, did you know Harry Styles dropped an album? “Harry’s House” is just there, unoffensive and uneventful. He’s made the perfect soundtrack for sock shopping at the Gap. Styles has an appealing voice and a hand in writing every song, but this is an album your mother will likely like a lot more than you. Or your grandmother. The problem may be that Styles has nothing to say, no truths gleaned from a life in the spotlight. His songs are set in clubs and European capitals and in bedrooms where he’s masturbating or choking women by the sea. His lyrics are quirky word salads that could use some editing. For all the twenty-eight years of his life, Styles’ songs reflect a removal from any pain, rejection, or challenges of everyday life, so that all-that-glitters on the surface turns out to be all there is.

Sort of inspired by “As It Was” by Harry Styles though my brain may have produced something I may not be held accountable for. Gosh I love this song so much, it’s blasting on repeat right now.
Rated E! Randy boys…
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
In this world, it's just us
You know it's not the same as it was
As it was, as it was
You know it's not the same
The lights are dim, the music loud, the bass thrumming through our bodies as we move to the music. Harry’s wrapped himself around me, his body so close to mine that I can feel every ridge, every flex of his muscles, and every exhale.
We’re both sweaty and exhausted and likely also dehydrated but Harry’s finally found his love for dancing and I’ll be damned if I’m the one to put an end to this magical night. I’ve fought for long enough to make it happen.
This relationship is officially no longer as it was. It’s reached the next level; it’s ready for something new and exciting. Harry’s so comfortable in his own skin that he’s given all of himself to me, he lets me have the real him…in public, for everyone to see. Well, we’re in a gay muggle nightclub and I doubt that anyone really cares about the fact that Harry’s basically shagging me in the middle of the dance floor, but still.
To be honest, I wish he’d get on with it already. I’ve been lusting after him ever since he first started grinding up against me and it’s starting to become unbearable. Still, Harry’s breath is hot on my neck, his lips ghosting over my skin, greedily lapping up the salty drops of my sweat, pooling in the crook of my neck.
The back of my shirt’s clinging to me and the only way I’ll get out of these blasted leather trousers is if Harry uses magic to cut them off of me. But I’m okay with that…even if I paid 500 British Pounds for them.
There inevitably comes a point when Harry pulls back and looks at me.
For a moment, I worry that he’s about to wake up and realise that he’s had enough of having dropped all of his inhibitions but the moment doesn’t come.
Instead, he flashes me the biggest grin I’ve ever seen him smile, then his fingers bury into my hair and he kisses me hard, wanting, desperate. One of his hands finds its way down my spine, squeezes my buttocks, then pulls me so close that dancing is no longer a possibility. We snog like we’ve never snogged before, like the world is about to end.
When we break apart it’s just long enough for me to notice the glamour Harry wandlessly casts over us, then we whirl out of existence and a persistent tug behind my navel guide me through dark nothingness. Seconds later I fall onto Harry’s mattress and my man makes good on that severing spell, taking those tighter-than-tight leathers trousers off of me.
The rest is a blur of clothes flying everywhere, of hands and fingers and lips and tongues and bites and slow thrusts. My mind spins, unable to hold on to a single coherent thought. I can still feel the music thrumming through me, then it’s Harry who’s thrumming deep inside of me, and finally it’s us both, panting, desperately chasing after the thrill of climax.
When we find it, it shatters us both and we lie in each other’s arms, messy, sweaty and too tired to care.
“Tomorrow, again,” Harry says.
I laugh.
“You’ll be the death of me, Potter.”
“Or you of me.”
We fall asleep like that, high on love, the thrill of being real with each other, and raw passion.

the harry styles guide to new album promo
finally feeling free & confident
friends & fans create safe environment
songwriting comes in waves (like surfing)
happiness as a personal measure of success
making an album is “navel gazing”
having shorthand with song writing team
what am I missing?

How the therapy inspired the marketing strategy?
We were talking about H's therapy 1,5 week ago. I was talking with one of you about my theory:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
H mentions therapy every time he promotes his albums. For example: that making an album is like therapy and writing lyrics is therapeutic. This time it is included in each promotional article in a specific way. Each time he emphasizes that he feels that he is more alive and that he enjoys all the moments. Plus, discovering yourself is like discovering new rooms in your home. You have to open the door to open the rooms. So what did H and his team did? Documented moments from the production of the album and put them behind a virtual door, letting fans discover those moments. They enriched them with creating their own room with decorative elements of each house and short captions on twitter... Rooms are spaces in H's mind, each one is for him a space to capture moments, to discover and to explore. It's also like a diary.
DAZED Magazine:
'[...] I’ve always found that the moments in my life which have brought me the most joy are the small ones, whether it be, you know, the end of the night under the stars or a bite of food, or sitting with your friends thinking, ‘Oh, I’m never gonna forget this.’ It’s always those moments that I find have the longest-lasting effect on me, in terms of sparking something wonderful in me. I really think that the essence of Pleasing is finding those little moments of joy and showing them to people.[...]'
BHG interview:
[...]He knew he had to commit to the reset, to the sense of a fresh start that was happening across his life. He is aware that this all sounds a bit pretentious, a bit airy-fairy, but then, who didn’t get caught up in a rush of pandemic life-improvement epiphanies? “I think everyone went through a big moment of self-reflection, a lot of navel-gazing, and I don’t know if there’s anything more navel-gazing than making an album. It’s so self-absorbed,” he said. [...]
[...]So he used lockdown to commit to being a better friend, son, brother. He pushed himself to confront things he hadn’t brought up, had many long, honest chats. And like most people who found themselves suddenly very, very inside, he thought a lot about the idea of home—about belonging, peace, sanctuary. “I realized that that home feeling isn’t something that you get from a house; it’s more of an internal thing. You realize that when you stop for a minute,” he said.
[...] Harry's House is, as you can probably guess, about home. Not just home in the sense of a physical space—though there are plenty of references to kitchens and "sitting in the garden" and "maple syrup, coffee, pancakes for two"—but also to home "in terms of a headspace or mental well-being," as Styles put it. "It sounds like the biggest, and the most fun, but it's by far the most intimate," he said of the album. [...]
[...]When Styles began therapy about five years ago, he was reluctant initially, feeling it was a music industry cliché. "I thought it meant that you were broken," he said. "I wanted to be the one who could say I didn't need it." He returned to the home theme that has underpinned our conversation, explaining that therapy has allowed him to "open up rooms in himself" that he didn't know existed, allowed him to feel things more honestly, where before he had tended to"emotionally coast." He said, "I think that accepting living, being happy, hurting in the extremes, that is the most alive you can be. Losing it crying, losing it laughing—there's no way, I don think, to feel more alive than that."
Zane Lowe interview:
[.. ]'Therapy is an example, it’s like you open a bunch of doors in your house that you didn’t know existed and then in a time when it would be easier to emotionally coast, you can no longer do that because you know the door exists and the scale is just widened. And you feel everything that’s bad so much harder and you feel the good moments so much harder' [...]

The 1970s - part 2
Grace Jones
Grace Jones is a fearsome model, actress and singer, she is the synonymous of Seventies and Eighties disco culture. Her striking androgynous looks created a bold visual impact.
Tumblr media
Television shows such as Charlie’s Angels featured the smart and liberated but sexy woman.
Tumblr media
The blondes Cheryl Tiegs and Farrah Fawcett represented the new sporty and physically fit ideal for women of the era. Farah Fawcett was considered one of the decade's most beautiful women. She was the ideal 1970s beauty, she was tanned with flowing hair and a slim, toned body, an athletic look with minimal or "natural" makeup.
Tumblr media
Blue Jeans
After James Dean popularized blue jeans in the movie Rebel Without a Cause, wearing jeans became a symbol of youth rebellion during the 1950s. During the 1960s, the wearing of jeans became more acceptable, and by the 1970s it had become general fashion in the United States for casual wear. Denim was being mass consumed by all ages and seen as the ultimate American garment. Jeans were flared, bell bottom, wide legged, hip huggers, high waist, embroidered, embellished, studded. Denim was was not just limited to pants: jean skirts, suits, vests, jackets, hats and accessories were also brought to the mainstream.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Designer jeans were seen as a status symbol and the more expensive, the more desirable. Designer names such as Gloria Vanderbilt and Calvin Klein were branded across the backsides of men and women everywhere.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gloria Vanderbilt is an American artist, author, actress, heiress, and socialite mostly known for the early development of designer blue jean she sold, selling 10 million pairs of jeans per year at the height of her brand’s success in the 1970s.
Tumblr media
Glam and Glitter rock brought flamboyant, boldly coloured clothes in luxurious fabrics like satins, velvets and lurex. Everything was decorated with sequins, bedazzled, gemmed and worn with feathered boas. Nothing was considered too outrageous. Super high stacked platform shoes or boots were the favoured footwear.
Tumblr media
Glitter rock stars of the the time such as Kiss, Marc Bolan, The Sweet and the New York Dolls were very outgoing dressers wearing chiffon, spandex and satin. Glitter trends in makeup were worn on the face by both men and women. Stores such as Granny Takes a Trip and Biba had multiple locations in the U.S. and the U.K that catered to the teenage audience and rock stars alike.
Tumblr media
David Bowie
Pop star David Bowie, as alter ego Ziggy Stardust, wore over-the-top androgynous outfits both on and off the stage.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Suzi Quatro
Rock chick Suzi Quatro was the creator of style leather suits in which were inspired by Elvis Presley's 1968 leather suit. It gave women the power and confidence they needed.
Tumblr media
Debby Harry
Debbie Harry became an inspiration for women of the 70s. She formed her music band “Blondie” in 1975 and with it she made her mark on fashion of the time. The LHLL aesthetic is hugely inspired by her ability to effortlessly blend a rock 'n' roll attitude with a touch of chic elegance.
Tumblr media
Studio 54
Disco brought excess and decadence. Designers and celebrities partied at the infamous nightclub Studio 54 in New York City. It was known for its drug use and bacchanalian carousing.
Studio 54 inspired dance wear style, wrap-around skirts, leotards, tube tops, dresses and separates that moved with ease and were made in Lurex, miliskin and spandex.
Tumblr media
youtube
Cher
Throughout the 1970s, Cher scored the US Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles becoming the female solo artist with the most number-one singles in US history at the time. She had her own TV show, and she was a pioneer in the use of revealing clothing and showing the navel, her Bob Mackie wardrobe was talked about. Cher's influence on fashion can also be seen in her use of accessories, particularly her love of statement jewellery and oversized sunglasses.
