So true

“not beating the being me allegations” god i love them

every time julien speaks i’m just so awed and emotional over how deeply she understands herself and others. and how eloquently she’s able to verbalize these understandings- i just am in awe of her and how she puts her whole heart into every single comment she makes, question she answers, etc.

Julien is so precious to me, anti-curse is legendary

I love them and their mutual anxious foot shaking

I’m always fascinated by them 🖤🖤 but Kevan did an amazing job at letting the boys dynamic show by never interrupting or asking weird/boring questions, he just went along with them in a way that never felt forced at all, I wish I could add spanish subtitles to this

Every single one of them has such obviously different neurodivergent qualities. Phoebe interrupts without meaning to (and JB does sometimes too -- sometimes getting talked over is because someone else isn't done, because she will do the "tangent where i was reminded of a thing!" thing, but she also backs down more easily), and the "i'm competitive but i hate games/pass-fail" thing is a very ADHD perfectionist quality. Lucy's 'I'm going to sound so dumb' about Google Drive and pattern recognition is like 'bb you sound autistic, it's okay :P' I'm not actually diagnosing them with these specific things, but would I be surprised if this entire band came back from a neuropsych assessment with overlapping diagnoses? NOPE. We flock together lol. I do often want Julien to get to speak more (partially because I just love hearing her talk), but as someone who is OFTEN the one who finishes sentences as a sign of excitement and/or doesn't notice when someone's chiming in, that's 100% not her being cut off intentionally. Probably on their own time there's a lot more cross talk, or "what I was saying before was..." later, but in an interview they can't spend ten minutes going "oh no wait what were you saying? go ahead" "no you go ahead it's fine".

@faigler

6 ай бұрын

(Also, to be fair, the place Phoebe occupies in fame/pop/who she's been pitted up against is slightly different than how Julien or Lucy is generally positioned. People will talk the hell over you or just say exactly what you're saying when you're a younger femme person in any industry much less entertainment, so it's entirely possible she's had to be a little more aggressive about not backing down, out of necessity, and it just carries over a little in public spaces.)

I have my “suspicions” and of course I know nothing so that’s why I don’t say like “oh here listen to this hypothetical” but I had the same feelings initially and after talking w my partner my opinion on all this comes from a place of (queer human) love as well as immersive personal work towards deep understanding of “relationship” dynamics of all varieties, as well as things like non verbal communication between people, etc. all this so to say you’re not wrong & I think the answer will be revealed as to why this is in due time for the boys; it makes me sad bc I see so much of this aspect of Julien when I look back on how I “show up” in a group setting & i hope it’s just a thing they all do now and then with her or somn, and that I’m just overthinking so hard.

@@juliarose8693 I might be projecting, but even the way they perform their setlists (ie. the big 3 at the end of each set/what those songs invoke) seems reminiscent to me as sort of blurring the lines between friendship and romance (don’t get me wrong, I love this stuff- my first love came from something sort of similar in HS) and I don’t want to project my experience/feed into rumors bc what I see is a lot of gender roles at play that I’m all too familiar with being I’m a trans dude now on HRT. The sapphic yearning runs deep w the boys and I’m here for it. maybe I’m projecting or wishfully thinking though so that’s why I encourage everyone to take shit on the internet w a grain of salt lol. at the end of the day I want to protect all 3 of them fiercely & im sure there will be great (and hard) discussions ahead but that’s why the boys are so fantastic.
