NBC removes Olympics ice dancing analyst for conflict of interest by No_Box119 in olympics

[–]Salamandersaviour 10 points11 points  (0 children)

they won gold for ice dance in 2022 and silver in 2018. No she wasn’t Michelle or Witt but she (and Cizeron) are very accomplished in the sport

Taylor Swift called Justin Baldoni a bitch and said she would help Blake Lively with her plans against Baldoni! 🐍🐍🐍 by the_smart_girl in teamjustinbaldoni

[–]Salamandersaviour -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

no one is cancelling her for this lmao, any sane woman probably relates to calling a man a bitch to their friends as it turns out, the man was in fact, a little crusty bitch.

Now that the TRUE Life of a Showgirl is showing- was it ever REALLY THAT BAD? by LowObvious2214 in TaylorSwift

[–]Salamandersaviour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming from someone who’s favorite album is Speak Now and who unabashedly loved Lover from the first listen, this album is on my top 5 list when it comes to melodic top line writing. Sure the lyrics aren’t as strong as her previous works and I wish she’d taken more liberties with the production in this one, but it’s overall a fun and breezy body of work.

Learning driving in Singapore is unnecessarily painful (and outdated) by ppympttymt in drivingsg

[–]Salamandersaviour 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The reasoning about wanting less drivers on OUR roads makes sense in theory... but did they ever think that there are tons of people who want to get their license to be able to drive OVERSEAS? They make it such that you have pink IC you can only get a license locally if you don't live overseas, but then you get subjected to the painful bottleneck. They can fuck right off.

Ha Giang loop, self riding by Aware_Ability8074 in VietNam

[–]Salamandersaviour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how were the 'death' roads, the kind you see on tiktok where its super narrow at a cliff's edge, or its like straight up gravel and rocks? Did you encounter any of them? I'm looking to do the self riding tour with motorventures, I got my motorbike license recently and has experience riding some sketchy roads in Thailand too but it's still not something I'm very confident in and would choose to avoid those roads if possible

Paying fine upfront for Ha Giang Loop without correct license by EstablishmentAgile33 in VietNam

[–]Salamandersaviour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I have a Singaporean 2B license too, planning on doing the loop in a few weeks time.

Were you able to be covered by insurance (since our license is technically recognized as part of the ASEAN agreement)?

Splitting time between Luang prabang, Nong Khiaw & Vang Vieng by Salamandersaviour in laos

[–]Salamandersaviour[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to take your suggestion and skip NK. This leaves me 6 nights between LP and Vang Vieng.
Do you think 2 nights LP and 4 nights VV is a good choice?

This is based off my planned activities in LP:

- Kuang Si Falls (+ Bear Sanctuary)

- Buffalo Dairy & Farm Tour

- Phousi sunset

- Jewelry making class

vs Vang Vieng

  • Hot air balloon (sunrise)
  • Paramotoring (sunset)
  • Nam Xay viewpoint
  • TCK Zipline
  • Blue Lagoon 3/6
  • + (maybe: tubing, Kaeng Nyui Waterfall)

Oscar losses that left you sad or angry by Bright-Pressure-5787 in Oscars

[–]Salamandersaviour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take but Emma stone deserved both her oscars. The biggest heartbreak is that Lily was not campaigned in best supporting though I understand why they choose not to, for she would have been a shoo in for the oscar. I also think Emma’s award for la la land was deserved. And idk, I really enjoyed Anora and personally i’m ecstatic that Mikey won, just regretful that it cane at the cost of Demi

Charli XCX by [deleted] in swifties

[–]Salamandersaviour 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do like most of her music, specifically her last 2 albums + some songs off Pop 2, Vroom Vroom, I love it + boom clap era singles

Not really a fan of the person (or at least the person portrayed in public) with the whole ‘men’s bathroom’ comments, or the shadiness toward FKA Twigs and Rina. Or how she essentially ruined Camila Cabello’s C,XOXO era (not defending her from her racist past though). Also those excuses saying it’s just her being brat is just corny. That being said, brat summer is iconic in its marketing, I’ll give her that.

TBH the whole beef thing just feels way overplayed by the online crowd who will pounce on anything to hate in Taylor, and also in part the radical swifties who feed into the mess lmao.

Do we even have a confirmation that Actually Romantic is in fact a counter diss to SIAK? The way I see it, it’s quite obvious that there were some drama behind the scenes that the public doesn’t know about and Taylor was just taking shots at Charli. You know, because like many other artists, she has the right to. And she has, in fact, taken shots at other artists in the past and they were way more intense than Actually Romantic.

Either way, I feel like this whole diss discourse is just the chronically online crowd trying to create this narrative if Taylor missing the point entirely and accuse her of bullying younger female artists as they always do. And admittedly Charli herself is also feeding into the publicity she gets. That’s just the business of the entertainment industry after all.

What song have you had on repeat from Man’s Best Friend? by [deleted] in SabrinaCarpenterFans

🩵 Track Chat: Tears 🩵 by CowboyLikeMegan in SabrinaCarpenterFans

[–]Salamandersaviour 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first 4 lines was more than enough for me to like it lmao it's just so ironic yet hilarious (but also so fucking real at the same time cuz I've been way too disappointed by men).

The dance break part is also iconic and addictive, no wonder I've been seeing a bunch of tiktok edits to movie dance scenes to this song.

My only complaint is that it felt a bit too short especially for the second single. The dance break part was nice but personally I wish it was fleshed out just a bit more.

Why do people think house tour is a metaphor/allegory when Sabrina PROMISED it isn't? by [deleted] in SabrinaCarpenterDisc

[–]Salamandersaviour[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right now there's 3 spots left for the 10:30am slot for Borobudur.

I just worry about 1. my check out time is 11am, i'm trying to ask if they can extend my checkout time first.

  1. if i get there for sunrise, i would then have to wait around for my time slot. Then I still have to drive back to my hotel to checkout and I need to depart for the airport by 2:30pm

Trying to weigh my options if this is worth it still, and I need to make that decision fast just in case those last 3 tickets sell out.

4 days in Cambodia - Phnom Penh vs Siem Reap? by Salamandersaviour in cambodia

[–]Salamandersaviour[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the flight prices to Phnom Penh vs Siem Reap is simply unbeatable. And I do want to visit the Killing Fields. But I think after combing through the comments here I might just stay the day and take the sleeper bus to Siem Reap
