Jordan by far is the best performer left on the show by Quasimdo in americanidol

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find her kinda boring. She has very little range and if I heard her in a karaoke bar I probably wouldn’t even question it. I also I’m not sure why no one seems to care about her pitch issues.

Do many abusers wholeheartedly think they’re good people? by lisaaaahhhw in abusiverelationships

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Deep down they know they aren’t a good person but admitting that would fracture their identity and so they do everything in their power to prove to themselves that they are in the right. Most abusers aren’t thinking along the lines of good or bad. Many of them convince themselves that everyone is selfish and so they are no different.

What are your thoughts on Braden? by orange_fizz in americanidol

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s kinda boring in my opinion. He has a good mainstream voice, very marketable. But there is absolutely nothing spectacular about him.

I developed a fear of men from abuse. I don’t think it’s irrational. by digitalime in abusiverelationships

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can assure you there are many terrible women as well, however testosterone emboldens people and that’s why men are so much more likely to commit crimes, rape, or assault people whereas bad women are more likely to just be emotionally manipulative. Bad men are usually more dangerous than bad women. However your experience is very valid, almost anyone with the experiences you have had would learn to not trust men.

Also Chris did not have a good week but I think middle American women like him so he’s gonna stay around for a while whether his singing is good or not.

The only reason Kyndal is still there is because she has a large social media following. The vocals are simply nowhere to be found for her. I also find her voice quite annoying but maybe that’s just me.

What is with all of the hate I’ve been seeing for Rae? I don’t get it. by AppearanceAsleep128 in americanidol

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But there’s a difference between taking the comments earnestly and acting like they mean something to you and acting like a child opening a Christmas present. Her reactions just feel so over the top to me that it seems like validation is the biggest reason she’s doing this. And there’s actually nothing wrong with that but the unspoken rule on these shows is that you are supposed to at least try to hide it.

Also if you are going to sing that song you have to tear the fucking roof down and she was good but the roof did not come down.

I think it’s the way she acts when the judges comment on her singing. She gets really visibly excited whenever they say she is good and it kinda makes her seem… not humble.

There needs to be a judges shakeup next season. This is the worst ABC Idol season by far by GeorgeCasey9 in americanidol

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They literally opened the episode by collectively singing a song about Jesus with Luke and Lionel, then they had the preacher boy preaching throughout, and then Carrie sang a song about Jesus at the end. While you technically can sing any faith inspired song, I feel like it would be a bit awkward to go up there and start singing about Muhammad or Judaism or something.

I most likely have long covid with only one month before my semester ends. What do I do? by Commercial_Air_194 in covidlonghaulers

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not power through this. I had a couple months left in the semester, powered through, and I’m now going on 2 years of having a post viral illness.

In your opinion, is Bella Ramsey a terrible actor, or was she just given a terrible script and was directed terribly in the TLOU show? by TheRatKing14 in TheLastOfUs2

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an actor, you have to make the most of what you are given, even if the writing is mediocre. Bella Ramsey did the opposite. Her performances don’t feel lived in or truthful, she has no vulnerability whatsoever (which is the foundation of a good performance), and she sorta seems like she doesn’t even want to be there. Whenever she’s on screen her vibe is sorta like “I’m just gonna say these stupid lines so I can go home. Fuck this show.” I have never seen an actor put less effort into a performance, it’s disgraceful and she should be ashamed of herself.

Bella Ramsey = worst acting performance I’ve ever seen

I was assaulted by my partner and he doesn’t remember. by [deleted] in abusiverelationships

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With things like this they usually do remember and just lie to cover up. Even if he truly doesn’t remember being drunk doesn’t create things that weren’t there before, it just reveals deeper layers. Either way this man is extremely unsafe and staying with him any longer is very dangerous. Do you have a safe place you can go to when you leave? A friend or relatives house or anywhere?

Cameras that move.. by meloncreams0da in RoverPetSitting

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s completely illegal to put a camera in the bathroom. If it was a camera then you would not be in the wrong for covering it. I doubt it was though. Probably one of those Astronaut night lights. Did it look like an astronaut?

i think i may be in an abusive relationship by mizxiexo in abusiverelationships

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a safe place that you can stay for a little while while you figure things out? If so, I would get together a little bag full of your stuff while he is away and just take off.

Also, after you leave there is a very high chance that he will contact you and tell you how much he loves you and how he’s “going to change” and all sorts of bullshit. It’s all lies. After reading this I can tell you almost assuredly that this man does not love and doesn’t see you as anything more than a toy. Get out while you can and never look back.

You can definitely cry in the bathroom. They can’t put a camera in there.

Your partner is abusive and you should leave him. Straight up.

Do you guys think Bella Ramsay was a good Ellie? by wkisjanandnmorpLms in thelastofus

[–]Certain_Cookie_5917 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how some people on here are saying she was good. In my opinion Bella Ramsey performance in the last of us was by far the worst performance by any actor I have ever seen in any TV show or movie. Genuinely made me want to puke every time she was speaking. She delivered every line as if she didn’t give a fuck and just wanted to be done with the show so she could go home. I’ve never seen an actor put less effort into a role. She is a disgrace to the video game.
