You’d think that since it’s summertime, I’d be cruising around with the top down, sipping on lemonade, wearing super cool neon shades and blasting high-energy tracks about lipgloss or whatever.

So berry excited for berry picking season!
Quotes from a new Rolling Stone cover story just make explicit the themes she’s been shredding about for years.
