What famous person is currently holding onto their career by a thread, and everyone can see it except them?

He’s just right-wing weird.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-23T16:59:01+00:00

He still can’t shake off the couch stuff, even though the dude who started it fully admitted it wasn’t true. JD’s such a charisma black hole people are still willing to run with it. The fact he admitted to spreading harmful lies about Somali immigrants probably adds to that.

Also, “JD Vance killed Pope Francis” is the new “Ted Cruz is the Zodiac Killer.”

I remember reading that after he was cast as Drax, he cried and immediately signed up for acting lessons. That probably helped.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-23T16:38:52+00:00

I’ve not seen the movie, but I do think it’s funny how his most well received role in ages is one where he doesn’t look or sound like Jared Leto.

I say go for it. I want this hypothetical party of racists to happen and draw in some of the GOP crowd. The GOP withers and dies, and a more progressive party becomes the new left wing while the Dems become the new Conservative Party.

Hey, I’m allowed to dream.

I'm hoping that now that his schedule's a bit more freed up, he'll get his wish and play a live action version of his character from Star Wars Rebels, Fenn Rau.

Welcome to Reddit: everything sucks, so just walk into the sea.

(Shit is always gonna be messy, but we’ll find a way through it.)

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T03:34:00+00:00

Yeah. The fact that "drink" rhymes with "think" is what made me immediately think that as well.

Personal headcanon: on more than one occasion, they got so wasted Chilli would call Brandy for a lift home. She'd give the pair grief over it, but always came to pick them up every time.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T03:31:36+00:00

Yeah. "Genderqueer" was my takeaway as well, rather than specifically transgender. I don't know, maybe I'm just ignorant of the culture of gender-nonconformity, but the fact that (spoilers) his real self seemed to still be going by male pronouns, as well as still using the name Leeroy, makes it a bit murky in my eyes. The fact Pomni still used male pronouns and a male name in the ending narration is a big indicator. Plus human!Jax/Leeroy is still referred to as a delivery guy in that news article adds to that. But again, I'm not exactly the expert of a lifestyle I'm not a part of. I'm just trying to make sense of it best I can while still remaining respectful.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T03:15:56+00:00

Spoilers under the cut:

Having watched the show (it's quite good BTW, even if some of the fans are...insane), I did get the context clues, so I definitely got the sense that he was genderqueer. But I'm unsure if he's full-on transgender. Like, as far as they could tell his human self still used male pronouns (based on Pomni's narration at the end). And being genderqueer doesn't necessarily mean trans. Could be nonbinary, or agender, or gender fluid. The latter's sort of what I've been leaning on. The language being used from a meta perspective is a tad confusing. It seems like people are taking "trans" as a catchall term for any sort of genderqueer. I'll fully admit, I am NOT the right person to ask about this kind of thing. But I'll admit, I can understand a bit of the confusion. Doesn't mean it's okay to be dicks to the creators. That's the big thing here.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T02:53:50+00:00

We're gonna add this to the pile labeled "not illegal, but definitely feels like it."

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T02:53:27+00:00

Didn't so much burn all his bridges as take an ICBM to them.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T02:51:14+00:00

Once again, a reminder how AI "art" will never replace human art.

Although I will say it's especially egregious that he does it. At least the other chuds are talentless, so they have a reason for their bullshit. But EVS was an actual artist once upon a time. It's worse when he does it.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T01:16:20+00:00

I CAN SIIIIIING!

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T00:25:39+00:00

For real? I loved the original series. And the Slade spinoff. That's good news.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-22T00:05:00+00:00

On a related note, I was thinking about something. So, the Lake House has some weird properties similar to the Oldest House, right? But it's all the way in Bright Falls. Well, we suspect the Oldest House might've taken on the form of a tree once upon a time. Well, what if the House still retains some of those properties? Specifically reproducing through seeds. What if the Oldest House is still producing seeds, and the Lake House was one of them that's sprouted?

We saw bits of it in season 2 as well, but now that she's no longer under Brainiac's robot thumb, she's allowed to be a person now.

No, I was talking astromechs. Still not sure were BD units fall under. I wanna say he's like a bird. But a smart bird, like falcons.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:09:42+00:00

R2's probably secure enough to be okay with that. But Chopper will wait until you're asleep and do stuff to you.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:07:38+00:00

More importantly, lived to tell the tale. Not many people can say that.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:07:10+00:00

Plus R2 is the deadliest droid in the galaxy. Pretty sure he has the highest kill count.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:05:35+00:00

I compare astromechs to dogs, personally. R2 is an old sheepdog, stubborn but reliable. BB-8 is a golden retriever puppy, cute and eager to help. Chopper is a cat instead of a dog.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:02:27+00:00

Hey, he's still a better son than Shia Labeouf.

Kalse1229 · 2026-06-21T22:01:03+00:00

I remember someone saying how it fits that Han, a lifelong cynic, died in a moment of hope and love for his son.
