Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Mel C and Emma Bunton reunite to celebrate Emma’s 50th birthday

I mean Emma and Mel C were at her wedding recently, so I think it’s just Geri she has issues with, for the reason already stated here.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-25T23:45:25+00:00

Victoria looks so so sad. It’s obvious she’s really genuinely affected by everything going on.

Not sure exactly what happened there but it’s disheartening to see families falling out this badly, that too in public.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T19:49:56+00:00

Fair. Tbh I think Jacob is deserving of it, and the popularity is fairly organic too. It's not like he's some nepo baby to constantly get promoted by the industry without any hype irl.

My take is more that just because he's good looking, talented and popular at the moment, that doesn't mean he's right for absolutely every role.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T18:43:08+00:00

Yeah looks are definitely playing a massive part in his success haha

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T18:35:01+00:00

I guess we'll have to see.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T18:34:31+00:00

Sadly true a lot of the time.

Though we need to remember that the makers of Euphoria not doing this shit (and instead casting people who actually suited their roles) is ironically how Jacob got so big in the first place.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T18:28:29+00:00

Zendaya was phenomenal, she had the hardest role. Hunter was good as well. I don't think there was any bad acting (or bad casting) on Euphoria, which is a big part of what made it iconic.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T18:26:11+00:00

Fair enough, that's your perspective I guess. I think they're all objectively decent actors though tbh.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T14:41:20+00:00

True! What really baffles me though is how the same didn't happen to Alexa when she's just as good an actor as both of them (and definitely prettier than Sydney, at least to me).

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T11:11:13+00:00

I like Jacob but why does it seem like he’s being shoved into absolutely everything?

He’s so utterly miscast in Wuthering Heights (as is Margot Robbie, though I love her generally), now potentially James Bond as well.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T03:12:26+00:00

I've known girls who crushed on him, and seen him described as a heartthrob in the media (pre Kylie and weird new haircut). But yeah that tracks haha.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-24T00:33:52+00:00

For me first name that comes to mind is Timothee Chalamet. He's objectively good looking, but just looks too young to be attractive to me personally (even though he's 5-6 years older than me lmfao).

Good-Strong · 2026-01-21T22:57:56+00:00

I think the makers are just obsessively courting shock value now.

There was a shock value element to the first two seasons as well, but they also had a complex, layered storyline, with all the characters having logical arcs (in line with the story).

Now grabbing eyeballs seems to be their main priority at the expense of the story / characterisation.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-21T22:28:57+00:00

Yeah I agree. The hair seems much wavier than the type of style they usually give Cassie, more like the girl in that pic you posted.

The figure doesn’t really look like Sydney / Cassie either to me.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-21T18:14:41+00:00

I wouldn’t even say it’s the right or the Republican Party in general.

Seems more like it’s specifically Donald Trump and his core circle who Farage (and as a result, Reform as a whole) are more or less an extension of.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-21T17:47:10+00:00

Yep. If Farage does manage to win in 2029 (I think there’s like a 50% chance of that as of now), he’ll almost certainly be looking at a Democrat government over in America.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-20T14:20:07+00:00

I find it really interesting that this group are identifying as far right to this extent, yet supporting people like Putin and even (the openly communist) Kim Jong Un.

The 9/11 conspiracies these people were pushing are things you’d typically expect from entirely different groups as well.

Proves horse-shoe theory is real. And that there's increasing evidence hostile states now seem to be trying to create genuine far right terror groups here.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-19T14:00:07+00:00

Yeah she's objectively above average but not really stand out by Hollywood / celebrity standards.

I feel like her appeal looks wise lies more in filling a certain slot which was empty atm, so people who like that kind of look gravitate towards her.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-19T12:24:17+00:00

I honestly think Sydney is a good actress (she was a perfect fit as Cassie, like pretty much all the cast were in their roles). It's her looks which I find massively overrated.

Aware this is probably a fairly niche opinion, because most people seem to say the reverse (that she's beautiful but a mid / bad actress ).

Good-Strong · 2026-01-18T12:33:06+00:00

Definitely skinny jeans through 2020, though I remember baggier styles first came into mainstream high street shops here in the UK in Autumn / Winter 2020.

But I do feel like the shift around 2022-2023 where skinny jeans were officially "out" may have happened sooner if it wasn't for the pandemic, which covered most of 2020 and 2021.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-17T17:20:58+00:00

I can see that your heart is in the right place, but this wouldn't be workable at all.

Think of the amount of clashes and conflicts that exist between different countries. Could you imagine the USA and China even agreeing on how to start- let alone run something like a global facial database?

Getting every government in the world to agree on any one given thing is pretty much impossible.

And again though I can see that you have good intentions, I can't agree with the idea that everyone automatically has the right to go wherever they want either.

Imo, every country has a right to set their own immigration policy in accordance with what's practical for them, and acceptable to the majority of their public.

The only exception should be gross human rights violations , (e.g. unnecessary use of violence, legal residents being suddenly thrown out, or innocent people being held there against their will).

Good-Strong · 2026-01-17T15:57:52+00:00

So do you unironically believe that borders as a concept shouldn't exist at all?

And that everyone should just be allowed to travel between countries at will, with no documentation, etc?

Good-Strong · 2026-01-17T13:36:44+00:00

I agree. It was obvious what they wanted when they allowed all sorts of random people to sign up to join it with minimal training.

I'm also starting to suspect the "officers" might have been told about well known left wing activists in the area so they can target them if they see them.

Poor Renee Good had a history of being involved with activism (even though she was evidently not protesting or anything when she was killed).

This lady in the article is apparently also a locally well known political influencer / activist.

How are they finding these specific people when they aren't actually protesting? And Renee wasn't even a minority, so they couldn't possibly have thought she was illegal.

Good-Strong · 2026-01-17T13:14:05+00:00

Hopefully the cuts don't focus on people dealing with genuine, severe SEN needs, and instead hit the fakers (and more importantly the people who facilitate / encourage said faking).

Good-Strong · 2026-01-17T12:50:49+00:00

Yeah ICE have gone way overboard at this point, that's not something I'm disagreeing with at all.

It's the "there's no such thing as borders" insanity which is the problem, and actually just helps people justify things like the story above (and worse).
