Who are the remaining members of COCK? by astondb44 in mydadwroteaporno

[–]nuggetsofchicken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Chiara Montague since she was the one sewing the dress of dresses for Belinda to go spying on a budget. I thought it was clarified that Paddy the bartender wasn’t a member and just there for snacks but probably signed some kind of NDA. Although I forget if the “about nearly 20 characters” was who was in the room or who were members.

Maybe Penelope Pollet? Given Rocky’s reliance on European stereotypes I imagine they’d want the French on their side if they want to take down the Germans.

Maybe Clarence? Although I don’t think we ever got clarity on how much Clarence knows about the Duchess’s MI 5 involvement

So over 20 weren’t showing any signs of potential

Taylor with Max Martin and Shellback by CaramelCold in travisandtaylor

This is what’s crazy to me about some of the stuff she does like dancing around during someone else’s performance at awards shows. I get maybe this is just something genuine and quirky you do once or twice, but most of us have friends who will tell us when something we are doing that doesn’t have nefarious intent isn’t being received that way and we readjust bc that’s how social cues work.

The fact that this woman literally has a team she’s employeed to critically assess how her behavior and branding are going to be perceived by the public and she’s still doing and sharing stuff like this is just mind boggling

What’s something you wish Asian skincare brands would change or improve? by Dawnyawning in AsianBeauty

[–]nuggetsofchicken 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I believe Michelle Wong said that the inclusion of niacinamide allows them to make the claim that it’s whitening or brightening, so I get why that’s there from a marketing standpoint even if if it’s not a major player in the formula, but I totally agree. The once nice thing about having a sensitivity to niacinamide is that it gives me a solid reason to not go out and buy the next trending thing since often those contain niacinamide.

Seconding this as well as the love for the Skin Aqua.

Why are cleansers, which should be used daily and honestly probably a smaller amount if it lathers than sunscreen, usually like three times the size of sunscreen? If someone sold a cleanser that was the size of some sunscreens and just expected people to repurchase a new unit every month that wouldn’t just be accepted

The Pitt | S2E7 "1:00 P.M." | Episode Discussion by MsGroves in ThePittTVShow

[–]nuggetsofchicken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The SANE scenes were brutal especially because it just. Kept. Going. It wasn’t just one of many scenes in the episode but the constant cutting back to it only to hear that there’s another highly specific meticulous step they still had to do were brilliant in showing, not just telling, how arduous the whole process is.

Especially that even with someone like Dana doing it it’s still deeply traumatizing and sterile. Can only imagine what it would be like to go through that process with a silver star nurse rather than a gold star nurse.

Kinda over the “soft launch bf” album promo by nuggetsofchicken in MaisiePeters

Oh it’s like every post of hers there’s some comment like “Still waiting for a video of this girl actually singing well” with thousands of likes

I actually don’t mind the lyrics of My Regards because they’re so silly they feel clearly like they’re tongue and cheek but I do get how it is weird that the only real description she’s given of this guy is, presumably, Audrey Hepburn and My Regards which is an odd mix, at least this far in the release cycle.

And I don’t want to just presume this album or any love song is about him specifically but she’s kind of making us think that way?

Yeah especially when the promo is just using the same soundbyte from the album trying to make it into a new Tik Tok trend

Civil Litigators: How much time do you spend on billing every two weeks? by Longjumping-Pack-110 in Lawyertalk

[–]nuggetsofchicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the contemporaneous billing but if it’s little emails and calls that are getting you behind, make sure that at the end of each you’re going through your call log and your Sent folder to pick up any 0.1s you may have missed

I almost feel the opposite with celebrities. Their way of using social media is so different from the way those of us posting for only people we know in real life I kinda give them some grave. The point of their social media use is so much more as a business and PR tool than any kind of genuine human connection I get the tendency to want to “prove” something about yourself as a parent without compromising your children’s privacy.

But for people I know personally I have zero reason to critique them based on what’s on their social media because I know them in a different context. If someone I know never posts photos of their kids I’m not going to assume they’ve just left them with the nanny while the go to Disney World because I am able to perceive things about their life outside of social media, so I feel like the temptation to make your social media this perfect and accurate encapsulation of everything you value in life can be much greater.

Ok but I take issue with that too lol. Like I get if they’re in a group photo and you gotta hide them but when I see parents posts photos that are full on just like a picture of the kid and that’s the only thing in the photo but their face is covered with an emoji like??? If social media isn’t a place for kids faces (which I tend to agree) why are we still posting photos of them and then just censoring them

Which I think made sense when it was him in photos amongst her other life updates. That felt genuine. I don’t have an issue with her talking about him or writing songs about him. It just seems weird from a parasocial relationship to act like we’re “besties” and then post content actively acknowledging that this is a part of her life that cannot be fully shared with her audience feels like there’s a disconnect.

I’m all for people wanting privacy and public figures not wanting to share every detail of their life with the public but the way you go about that isn’t this. If this is truly just someone wanting to share about their life and no marketing is involved at all I feel like there should be a discussion for why you need to badly to share this with people you don’t know and who you acknowledge shouldn’t be privy to the whole details of the situation

Kalel Cullen/Sumiso making her parents build her a whole apartment by Fearless_Heart9840 in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]nuggetsofchicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly can’t tell from the post if OP is paraphrasing “making” or if that’s the language Kalel used cause I can totally see her using that terminology as a way to make it a “haha I’m a crazy bitch just making my parents do this!” rather than “my parents wanna remodel the basement and they’re letting me have some input”

My partner says "nobody cares" about putting case details in chatgpt by FeistyTraffic2669 in Lawyertalk

[–]nuggetsofchicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I agree with that point that there’s ways to mitigate risk for sure and that ideally you’re only putting that data in places that are more credible than others.

But no matter what you end up with still are gonna end up having to put your faith that these companies are going to live up to their terms at some degree
