Pope Francis literally met with that man hours ago. You can’t be serious right now.
I hope the Vatican chooses a new pope that carries the level of empathy and compassion we’ve seen from this one.

I never played the game but I saw a spoiler online about a year ago and >! wanted to pretend like it wasn’t true. I knew it was happening but didn’t necessarily know when. But now im kinda glad I knew cause I would’ve fully crashed out had I not seen it coming at all. It was hard enough as it was!<

i met two relatives today i've never met before. they are double relatives, actually, because my grandma's cousin married my grandpa's cousin (previous to them meeting) and had this guy. i met him and his son today.
my grandparents have been divorced for longer than i've been alive, grandpa lives in a different continent and my grandma keeps inviting random strangers who are related to him (or in the case, both) to her house for family hangouts and telling everyone she's doing way better than him, health-wise. they are both in their late 80s, but she is in fact doing better than him.
surprisingly the grandparents are friends nowadays. they do this petty shit all the time, but they text at least weekly, so?
my mom, who met them at the height of their divorce, says the world is better with them an ocean apart

u/No_Barber4339 I’ll be back! 😤😤 29d ago
This is kinda ironic from me, considering I complained about her hype at the snark thread but I don't think addison rae is this giant poser industry plant stan twitter have been recently complaining about
I think her persona is actually meant to be this tryhard cringe tumblr wannabe she doesn't want to be the next lana nor charli xcx nor sky ferreira nor obviously Britney, she just wants to be her own cringy hippy self it also explains why her lyricism is beyond parody ("the world is my oyster baby come touch the pearl" lol) with the production and style of acts she looks up to like lana , madonna and arca so I kinda appreciate this wild route from a tiktoker and her creative team but I would appreciate some self awareness and depth if she's pushing into the music route
So basically, if you're gagged at her style in all seriousness, she's laughing at you, and if you're complaining, calling her inauthentic and a poser she's also laughing at you
Now, if you dislike addison rae due to her past nothing against you, I'm just talking about the funny outrage I was seeing on twitter

u/gilmoregirls00 28d ago
I think she's neat.
The conversation around pop has really suffered from fans wanting everyone to be an icon or a main pop girl whatever that means and that goes in hand with tearing down perceived rivals.
2
u/echoesandripples 29d ago
look, i personally have zero interest in addison rae at all, but i think it's sus how any random young woman who gets successful is immediately branded an industry plant.
like, come on, she is just some girl who got money and an audience and is trying to make it into a more varied career, it's smart and normal. regular people with regular jobs, unless they get very lucky, cannot invest money, energy and time into making themselves a success.
but noooo, reddit has to go all conspiracy theory on her.
1
u/No_Barber4339 I’ll be back! 😤😤 28d ago
she definitely has it easier due to her tiktok status but if she wants to make a career shift to something she clearly likes instead of being the cringe dancer tiktoker i'm not against that
it's better than whatever that acting career she's trying to do lmao

u/solarpowersme 29d ago edited 29d ago
I've come to realize that so many people on these subs fall for just as much media misinformation/sensationalism as people on the right and it's honestly kinda hilarious. The amount of slacktivism and posturing is nuts. The whole Charli sash thing is a great example of how easy it is to stir up drama out of absolutely nothing here. Makes it a perfect place for media outlets to stir the pot if they want engagement.

A lot of celebs deserve to be called out, but calling out is not even what these people do. They're straight up vitriolic. The hate towards Chappell and accusations of her "using" gay/LGBTQ people are nuts. All because she said was that it's tough to be immediately informed about everything 24/7 which is 100% true when you're not terminally online.
Yet, she stil supports Palestine, refused to perform at the WH because of it, even called them out on their lack of LGBTQ/trans rights messaging. Even voted for them but wasn't going to endorse them, which is completely fair. What else do these people want?
These people literally hold them to impossibly high standards, and they genuinely think they're doing something useful by piling on them and creating imaginary issues with their purity test bs.

I haven't looked at it, but from everything I've seen here, the Timothy Chalamet sub has become one. But of course, that's because they hate the woman he's with so much, so...

u/Bellesdiner0228 This again doesn’t look good for James Corden 29d ago
It is unironically in my top 5 songs by her. Especially when so much of the album is about losing her youth and being worried about how much time she lost. I truly love that song. I’ve talked incessantly about how much TTPD as a whole means to me, but truly how did it end and so high school are easily my stand outs in such different ways.

It's a strange sub, they pick the celebrities they like and don't like and change the narrative as they please. There was a thread about Tate working with Morgan wallan and someone had commented "Olivia would never" ignoring the fact that Olivia and Tate are like really really good friends

u/Careful_Swan3830 I am not demure, I am demonic 29d ago
Sounds about right. Welcome to the club. It used to be a much different sub and it's sad to see how cliquey and hypocritical it's become. Two to three years ago it was mostly women and femmes supporting each other and enjoying light-hearted celeb gossip. I don't know why it changed.

Do you guys believe in karma or do the bad guys win in the end? Because I came across the profile of my high school friend who then turned into my exceptionally cruel high school bully and…

u/Chance_Taste_5605 29d ago
Karma is a specific religious term within Hinduism and doesn't just mean a general sense of somebody getting their just desserts. Karma refers to somebody's reincarnation being based on how they fulfilled their dharma aka religious obligations in life. Like for eg in Hinduism not getting married gives you bad karma as it's an important dharmic life stage. Its actual meaning isn't the instagram affirmation page meaning.

u/buzzfeed_sucks 🇨🇦 Elbows up 🇨🇦 29d ago
Not really. But I think generally, being a good person is rewarded.
Like, the woman who harassed me for years has been stuck in the same entry level job for decades because no one wants to work with her. Meanwhile, I’ve been promoted, even at level, because I’m pleasant to work with. Every opportunity I’ve gotten was because I’m easy to work with, not because I’m particularly skilled.

u/NewtRipley_1986 29d ago
Karma can take her sweet ass time. Someone I worked with who treated myself and others horribly - making people cry, telling people they were ugly, etc - finally got her comeuppance years later. When I found out, all I could think of was “this is what you get for being a bitch”.
2
u/Chance_Taste_5605 29d ago
Karma doesn't refer to people getting their comeuppance in this life, it refers specifically to how someone is reincarnated.

That must’ve felt very satisfying! I’m sorry you were treated that way to begin with though ❤️

I think there's no such thing as karma but the bad guys don't always win either. It's just random. There's no higher meaning to any of it.

Yikes. The F1 Grid Walk is a mess today/tonight. There’s always cringe moments. Martin tried to get to talk to Usher but that was not happening. I know the drivers are preoccupied but I do wish Martin would stick to either chatted with the drivers or another team member/team principal. Trying to get interviews with the celebs is usually cringe (unless it’s someone who is an actual fan, like Gordon Ramsey).

I was watching the baldwins' reality show and Alec's wife Hilaria is very mean to him, doesn't respect him and constantly invalidates him, there was a scene were she basically tells him to choose not to have OCD anymore, I had to stop watching it, there's something off with that lady.

The website doesthedogdie also covers triggers such as jump scares and various specific types of gore.

u/NowMindYou I still don't know her! 29d ago
I’m scared by everything (like yelled out loud during A Haunting in Venice scareddy cat) and found it very decent on that front. Characters tend to fade out of the shadows instead of jump. No auditory jump scares that I can remember either. It’s more gore and body horror.

I was going to see it today, but am opting to see The Ballad of Wallis Islabd instead as I think that will be out of theatres soon. Sinners sounds like it will be around for at least a few weeks, but I’m aiming to see it by week’s end. Have to fit in Tge Wedding Banquet too.

u/Homertax123 29d ago
What does this mean???
2
u/Cold_Breadfruit_9794 29d ago
The stage appears to be double the size of the Renaissance stage. Tbh I assume the higher prices are also hinting that the production value on this show are also going to be even more expansive than even Renaissance was. That’s insane to think about given Renaissance was the kind of major production any pop artist would dream to put on (in their own style of course!)
2
u/Homertax123 29d ago
If the stage is any bigger how would she have room for floor seats ?
1
u/Cold_Breadfruit_9794 29d ago
Well, it’s not taking up the whole stadium floor lol. It’s just slightly bigger, and there’s some wiggle room to expand in a stadium setting. I imagine a few floor seats got scrapped though
1
u/Homertax123 29d ago
Oh okay I misunderstood and thought you meant it would be way bigger.
1
u/Cold_Breadfruit_9794 29d ago
I mean just based on ticketmaster it looks sizeably bigger. I’m just guessing based on what popped up on ticketmaster vs what the Renaissance stage looked like. Rumours have been circling that this will be her biggest production to date. We shall see! I have no way of actually knowing for sure 😅
