About This Blog
This is a personal blog. It's one part personal stuff, one part media that I'm into, and one part sociopolitical issues I care about.
Things on my mind lately include Battlestar Galactica, the fate of River Song, the challenges of traveling solo as a woman, and how to transcend misogynistic narratives in traditional Appalachian music.
Stuff I typically blog:
→ politics (American and international)
→ international relations
→ social justice (especially intersectional feminism)
→ language & linguistics
→ the Balkans
→ Palestine
→ gymnastics → personal stuff
→ Alison Krauss
→ fandom
This blog doubles as an Alison Krauss' boobs appreciation blog because for some reason, when you do a Google search for Alison's boobs, my blog is generally the first relevant result. I don't know how this happened, but I will accept it. If people are gonna be googling her boobs, better they find the blog of a fangirl expressing solidarity than that of some skeezy dude objectifying her.
If I ever disappear or get hacked, find me at iellaantilles.tumblr.com.
- Album One: Let's write about falling in love but jk we're just friends guys.

The Civil Wars & T. Bone Burnett | Long Time Gone
I wish somebody would just tell us what this means.

the civil wars won a grammy tonight
but they were really distant and weird around each other
and
i don’t
like this
because now we have to wait for the official “we’re actually really broken up and this is the end, but enjoy our new album even though we won’t be touring or doing anythng else together xoxo” statement
Saaaame.
And it’s gonna feel like such a dick move too.
Oh well, see you all 20 years from now when some industry insider lets it slip which of them initiated the affair that ruined their partnership.
Oh man, Joy and JP aren’t even looking at each other. This is so sad.
Oh okay… and now the internet is gonna explode with rumors.
Due to internal discord and irreconcilable differences of ambition we are unable to continue as a touring entity at this time.
…WHAT
Yep, at least I’ve seen them once already at a perfect venue. I don’t regret not seeing them at Hardly Strictly because the atmosphere at that stage was toxic. Too many scenesters.
I never got to see them. FML.
A band named The Civil Wars is having an internal conflict … no one can really be surprised.
…
why do you make such a good point
Oh okay… and now the internet is gonna explode with rumors.

…WHAT
…They’re playing The Civil Wars’ “My Father’s Father” on Breaking Amish.
…
*WIBBLE*
FINALLY.
His voice. Her voice. Their voice. So orgasmic.
I like that they’re everybody’s favorites because they’re basically The Civil Wars.
