Wasn't aware We Appreciate Power was on this album, it's so easily my favorite Grimes song I've listened to it everyday for the past 2 months lol.
We appreciate power may be a bonus track but it is such a nice way to cap the album. Even when I don’t listen to the remixes I make sure to end on that one.
Really fascinating write-up that perfectly articulates my feelings about this record. I think this point is flying over a lot of critics’ heads. The Terrifying, Techno-Dystopian Visions of Grimes's New Album | The Walrus
Grimes Shares Her Secret Recipe For Toast And Butter Grimes kicks off her food diary by talking about her favorite breakfast food, which she typically eats around noon or 1PM after going to sleep at 6AM. “I make this thing called butter toast,” she explains. “Which is where I melt a stick of butter on a plate and then I put toast on it and then turn the toast over so it’s like the toast is completely saturated in butter, and then I put a little bit of jam on that and eat that.” She also talks about her dislike of fruits and vegetables (“I basically hate everything besides carbs and fat”) and her love of veganaise and spaghetti. “I had this thing where I was ‘vegan’ [air quotes hers] and I had this thing where I was like the only reliable food was spaghetti, so I was only eating spaghetti for like a year or two years,” she explained. “Then I was just like so sick and my hair actually stopped growing and I went to the doctor and the doctor was like, you are actually malnourished from not eating vegetables or meat and just eating spaghetti for two years.” Is she okay holy shit
ok but... “I love hot dogs because they don’t kill cows for hot dogs, so you can eat hot dogs without guilt if you need meat but you still have vegan tendencies, or you want to try to avoid creating demand for stuff because it’s just all the waste, it’s all the extra product, so I’m a huge proponent of hot dogs actually, and it is the best-tasting meat as well, so it’s basically a win-win.”
Lmao thats hilarious. I expected that to go in a different direction after she mentioned the caffeine gummies- honestly thought it would all be like that. Some of the stuff she mentioned actually sounded pretty good (the tomato avocado sandwich and the “sludge” meal she was embarrassed to describe). But then hot dogs and a glass of milk
