Björk album covers day 3: Post
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
I'm officially crossing a border between covers I don't like and ones I really enjoy—with Björk, there's no middle ground. And her second album greets us first on that new territory.
Aesthetically, it looks amazing—dynamic, vivid, striking. When I first saw it, I thought she's standing in Times Square with a long-brimmed hat behind her head. That image still lingers in my mind even though I now see it's not a hat but a whirling halo, not the actual Times Square but a collage of motion-blurred abstract images.
"Motion" is a key theme of the cover: it's in the background, in Björk's waving hair, and in her brilliantly captured face—it's not a settled emotion, it's a transition between fear and resilience, she looks both vulnerable and locked in.
The last funny detail about is Björk's outfir which resembles a postcard, echoing the record's name.
Okay, after that waterfall of compliments—isn't this the perfect cover? It would be, if not for one thing: you could easily replace Björk with another alt-pop girl—say, Carly Rae Jepsen or Caroline Polachek—and it would still work. It's the least björky album cover of them all. Decent, but not personal enough to rank higher in my rating.
So, 6/10 and the 8th place.

Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
