+The suspect used an "improvised incendiary device" to start the fire in Portland, Oregon, ahead of the US election. On Sunday, just hours after Joe Biden announced that he was stepping down from the 2024 presidential race and would be endorsing Harris, the campaign officially filed to alter its name. In other words, Ms Harris is very much appealing to younger voters who now, thanks in part to Charli XCX, see her as the "cool girl" option.

+I’m old enough to remember when internet graphics looked like the Brat cover not as some sort of aesthetic statement, but because every JPEG was being compressed and reposted until the image quality got completely degraded. But many younger listeners who weren’t fully conscious during the aughties are currently feel a sense of longing for the visual trappings of that era, Shrek colors and all. Technically, that sensation is called "anemoia," a nostalgia for a time you never knew.

+Brat (cover-art stylized in all lowercase, but in online streaming services stylized in all uppercase) is the sixth studio album by British singer-songwriter, Charli xcx. It was officially released on June 7th, 2024,[2][3] through Atlantic Records. The critically acclaimed album, which is considered her long-awaited mainstream breakthrough, also inspired the fashion trend "Brat Girl Summer" as the cover art and multiple songs went viral last month. At a listening party on Oct. 10, the singer told fans that the goal of the remix album was to demonstrate "the infinite possibilities of dance music and music in general." While the word "brat" usually evokes feelings of middle school angst, brat summer is all about accepting your imperfections while embracing the chaos. This Friday (11 October), she’ll drop the remix album, Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat, which stars Robyn, The 1975, Ariana Grande, Julian Casablancas, and more.

Charli XCX "Brat" Cover Parodies refers to exploitable edits of English singer and songwriter Charli XCX's sixth studio album cover, known as brat. Before brat became synonymous with its own trend (brat summer), Charli XCX didn’t believe that the album would connect with an audience. She certainly didn’t expect the album art – the blurry outline of the word "brat" on a lime green background – to become a cultural phenomenon.
