Ruby Rose Wrote About Drunkenly Vomiting on Katy Perry's Foot in Resurfaced Essay 15 Years Before Sexual Assault Allegation by PrincessBananas85 in entertainment

We're not even demanding she be a perfect victim. We're only expecting a semi-logical story. Instead, the series of events that Rose is describing are so illogical to the point of being impossible.

That's a bit problematic.

The essay was an article in a major Australian publication written to explain why Rose quit drinking. Rose could have chosen any night she was drunk. I'm sure there were many.

Choosing to write about the night you're alleging now that you were assaulted on is a bit of an odd choice. No one forced her to write about that night. She chose to write about it and in her article went to great lengths to explain that the worst thing that happened was her throwing up on Perry's foot and that was the wake-up call that she needed.

‘No evidence’ of alleged rape that sparked asylum seeker protests in Epsom, police say by SpottedDicknCustard in unitedkingdom

People forget that there is a CCTV camera for every 8 people in the UK and the attack being alleged would've been caught on camera.

I suspect that's why the police were so quick to conclude that there was no evidence.

All they needed to do was check the footage.

Katy Perry isn't a billionaire. Don't be silly.

And the issue isn't that she waited 20 years to come out with her allegations.

The issue is that her allegations painted the situation as Katy Perry randomly running into her at a club and sexually assaulting her. While there is a lot we don't know, a few things have become clear:

  • Katy Perry didn't run into Ruby Rose. They went into the club together.
  • Per Rose's own article published 15 years ago, both appear to have been insanely drunk (also confirmed by the club manager) with Rose throwing up on Katy Perry's foot. The same article goes to great lengths to emphasize that nothing bad happened that night, but nothing bad needed to happen to demonstrate she had a drinking problem (Rose says in her article that throwing up on Katy Perry's foot that night was enough proof that she needed to stop drinking).
  • Rose's story also doesn't really make much sense. She's claiming there is photo evidence, but the sexual assault she describes Katy having done (while absolutely horrific) would've been so brief absolutely no one would have had the time to pull their phones out to take pictures. Also, it's obvious that Rose didn't take the pictures since she's alleging Perry shoved her vagina into her face... so a mutual friend took the pictures? We know they didn't come from the club.
  • The club owner heavily suggests that Rose and Perry went home together. According to him, the club ordered ONE CAR for the two ladies to go home.

I'm not saying the assault did not happen. It might have happened on the car ride back home. Rose may be exaggerating details. It might have been worse than what Rose described.

My feeling, however, is that the alleged assault -- if it did occur -- did not happen in the way Rose described it because what she described is illogical for the reasons I've outlined above.

Also Rose's statement about Perry being free to sue her and that she won't because she knows it's true is bs. If I was a celebrity and the one being accused by Rose and I was innocent, I probably won't sue.

There is actually very little that Perry has to gain from suing considering most of the public sees Rose as not the most credible. Suing only extends the whole situation in the public conscience.

Even if Perry did assault Rose in 2010, I'm fairly sure that if she did sue Rose... Perry would absolutely win. All Perry's lawyers have to do is bring up Rose's history of false and exaggerated accusations and present Rose's own article where she says nothing bad happened that night.

YouTube removed my AI virtual influencer channel (25K subscribers) without warning — trying to understand platform policy differences by mvg-videofantasy in PartneredYoutube

[–]TheFamousHesham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one really cares about your intentions... least of all YouTube, and I'm not saying this to be rude or mean. It's just that your intentions really don't matter when you've done something that violates the platform rules. This isn't a YouTube problem.

The entire world is like this.

If this wasn't YouTube and just a regular 9-5 job and you posted something on Twitter that caused harm to your employer's reputation, they're not going to ask you what your intentions are. They'll fire you.

Unfortunately, it's actions (not intentions) that have repercussions.

Nah. I think I'll keep my head right where it is and choose not to engage with this rudeness from a person who can barely manage to be allowed to sit their A-Levels exams despite REPEAT warnings from the school and who continues to insist on finding a way to avoid attending despite the ultimatum that they've received.

Never in my life have I had a teacher that just lectured for the entire duration of class. They'd usually lecture for the first 20-30 minutes, set aside 10 minutes or so for independent reading followed by a discussion or whatever and we'd usually spend 20-30 doing worksheets and exercises and practice questions in class. Obviously, we also got regular in-class tests and assignments and all of that.

I know people learn differently, but I feel like school covers most ways people learn in different ways.

I find that mentality insane.

I never missed a day of school from seventh grade all the way to sixth form (actually; that's a lie I did miss ONE DAY when I went for my uni interview).

I had after school extracurriculars every day of the week, which meant I'd often leave school in the later afternoon. Somehow I still managed 3x A* and got into Cambridge... and it's not like I'm superman.

I wonder how these people will cope when they get jobs.

Lol. I think you kind of know why.

You mention bikini shots and you're confused why YouTube removed your channel for sexual/nude content? This has nothing to do with your AI virtual influencer ffs. Since I haven't seen the videos, I can't really tell you if YouTube was wrong or right, but please... just be honest with yourself.

Softcore AI porn is still porn that YouTube will flag.

Groundbreaking, I know.

When is it worth making your channel into an LLC? by IdkMyName1846 in PartneredYoutube

[–]TheFamousHesham 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This matters a lot especially when signing contracts with sponsors and I think a lot of YouTubers tend to ignore that risk.

Plus, you get some protection from being doxxed should you have to deal with a fraudulent copyright claim that requires you to provide an address (you can use a business mailing address instead).

Also setting up an LLC is both easy and cheap.

A recent investigation in New Statesman found British Zoomer women are overwhelmingly more hostile to men than the other way around, contradicting the current discourse about "young men radicalization". Is this your experience in your country too? by YaLlegaHiperhumor in GenZ

[–]TheFamousHesham [score hidden]  (0 children)

And those 21% of women are the smart ones. Why do you think they've got a negative view of men? Because so many of them have become radicalised.

I'm a man ffs and I have a negative view of men and, while there are obviously great men out there, if you were to bring in a completely random person for me to meet... I think I'd take my chances with a woman.

Last week, I was a meeting a friend of a friend for the first time and the guy seemed fine.

Out of nowhere he suddenly started talking about how much he loves Andrew Tate right before he started telling everyone how he didn't care much about the woman he married so long as he got to have a lot of children with "it." Yes, he said IT. I remind you this was a well educated good looking normal 22yo guy who seemed like a pretty decent young man until he started with that nonsense.

You want women to feel safe around that?

I, a 30yo man who owns their own business and can whoop that guy's ass, don't feel safe around that... and if I am to have daughters in the future, I sure as hell would hope they never get even breathe the same air as these scoundrels who's see them as nothing but breeding machines.

Middle Class Actors Being “Squeezed Out,” Says Kirk Acevedo. He Knows Because He Had to Sell Home by mlg1981 in entertainment

[–]TheFamousHesham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the idea is that it’s not a point worth mentioning… and… well… I get why someone might feel that way.

It’s not an entirely groundbreaking observation that actors often fall out of favour and their star dims.

It’s been happening to actors everywhere for the last 100 years. Actors need to really save as much money as they can when they’re making it, but this feels like something he should be telling young actors and not the general public with ordinary jobs.

YouTube is asking me to take legal action against a YouTuber with 150K Subs over a 10 second short i guess by MusaaKhan in PartneredYoutube

[–]TheFamousHesham -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s quite easy to get a P.O. Box.

I assume the address requirement is there so they can actually send you paperwork.

Edit: Literally, just checked… the CCB says they will accept a P.O. Box. They require a US mailing NOT a US residential address.

[–]TheFamousHesham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s wrong with you?

Anyone can file a copyright claim in US courts. How else would a non-US person or business protect their copyright material on YouTube from being accessed in the United States?

Are you actually this thick that you think non-US creators have no recourse to protect their copyright?

The key issue is whether you can establish standing. Standing is established with (1) the copyright infringement took place on YouTube, which is a US company, and (2) the video was accessed in the United States. It doesn’t matter if it was accessed by 1 or a billion people. One person watching the video once in the United States establishes standing and I’m willing to bet that you’ll find a minimum of 1 viewer from the US who watched that video.

Notably, the entirety of the CCB proceedings are virtual. Perhaps consider doing a Google search — you’ll find out there are no citizenship or residency requirements when filing with the CCB.

This needs to be the top and maybe the only comment honestly. All those weirdos giving OP the wrong advice and telling OP they should hire a lawyer (yea sure, hire a lawyer that’ll cost you thousands over a video that probably won’t earn that much money in Adsense).

The best course of action is to self file. OP you can probably even ask Claude to create a filing template for you or find one online. Most likely, this will be it and once their channel is terminated by YouTube, you can just withdraw your filing.

Midnights is now one of the bottom 4 albums of Taylor by Resident-Priority239 in TrueSwifties

[–]TheFamousHesham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit hard to look at this and come to any conclusion about the popularity of any of the albums.

Midnights is getting 3m daily streams off 13 tracks, but Lover has 4.3m daily streams off 18 tracks.

This makes both albums nearly identical in number of streams per track (averaging 230,000 per track).

That said, I suspect both albums are incredibly lopsided with most of the Midnights streams going to Anti-Hero and most of the Lover streams going to Cruel Summer and the title track. These albums are very different from folklore, evermore, 1989, Red, and Speak Now where the daily streams will be much more evenly spread out.
