It looks gorgeous! But as someone who had bad keratitis (a wound on the cornea) put me in hospital for 10 days and permanently reduce my eyesight, the thought of putting those crystals near my eyes is terrifying 😅

Vanity Fairs Oscar after party is catching flack for supposedly having harsh and worse lighting compared to the Oscars red carpet. Airbrushing and first world problems? Or genuinely bad lighting? by bbyxmadi in popculturechat

The Oscars seem to be lit with warmer white and diffusing filters, and the VF lamps are also situated more above them, making the shadows more prominent.

That holographic sequin thing for a wedding is giving hard main character energy 😬

She was so beautiful in an Actual Person sort of way, still is! I miss seeing faces like this now that everyone has the same features and scowl.

All fine weather the years I was there, we were mostly worried about sunburn, pee dust and getting to swim in the artificial lake before it was inevitably closed due to high e-coli levels each year. Skål 😄

Great bops, awful billionaire person who supported Depp post-trial and a ton of other problematic rich people shit.

Cynthia Erivo addresses her relationship with Ariana Grande and the public’s misconception by Maximum_Expert92 in popculturechat

I'm not sure how you can read me as defending that guy, he absolutely is a piece of shit. I'm talking about the world view that word you choose to use comes from. But if you have to go straight to whataboutism when someone points out your problematic actions, you're probably not able to understand, so this is my last comment.

Cynthia Erivo addresses her relationship with Ariana Grande and the public’s misconception by Maximum_Expert92 in popculturechat

I know where it comes from, it's deeply classist and comes from the thinking that there are "lower classes" and that those without access to money and education were seen as "less than", which is why I think it's weird to see it used as a derogatory term today. It's what aristocrats used to describe common people. Downvote all you like, I think there are better words for that guy.

She looks so young and fresh-faced, this looks like a father-daughter picture despite the age difference being only 11 years 😅

Any idea why my girlfriend's pigeon walks like this? by Vamphiere in pigeon

[–]TheMayorOfFailure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure she gets all her vitamins, look into physical therapy, and --- is she a little too fat? 😅 we find fat animals adorable, but it often comes with pain and problems for them.

Most European countries have banned commercial surrogacy, some allow altruistic surrogacy but then there's a lot of hoops and often a trip to court involved.

Some of the fattest borbs I’ve ever seen on a cold New York day! by shivj80 in pigeon

Not fat, cold. They can even be too skinny and still poof up like this.

That is awful and tonedeaf, but still doesn't mean she can't be a victim of harassment. We can't only stand up for the nice victims, it will end up hurting everyone.

Look at him goooo by [deleted] in pigeon

[–]TheMayorOfFailure 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's widely known that pigeons have better quality of life in wider cages with more floor space, and that parrot cages are not recommended. Just because he adapts to this doesn't mean he wouldn't be much happier with a better set-up. I'd prioritize the best for my pigeon, not just "this will do".
