adele seen with laura in london, coinciding with baseless(?) claims to expect her album in september... the pre-covid timeline has finally been restored
in 8th grade we went on a class trip to dc that is the source of two of my most formative pieces of lore.
one, my deeply traumatic experience at the lincoln memorial.
the other, the album i bought to listen to on the bus in unconscious anticipation of these sorrows (adele 21).
TIMELAPSE: Watch the transformation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool as crews drained, repainted, and refilled the iconic Washington, D.C., landmark.

I haaaaate the way he talks about her like she’s nobody—there’s a difference between being private and downplaying who she is and her success because what do you mean you didn’t know her songs? What do you MEAN you’re the best singer in the house???
@Hbrl18228 The European tour was announced a week later, the U.S. tour wasn’t announced until a month after the album dropped, and the tour didn’t start for another seven months. If bundles had been involved, she probably would’ve sold 10M+ first week.
Sometimes I'm glad she didn't grant this one standard album status because I get to forget about it for a month and then be wowed again next time I listen 😮💨
