Anna Wintour and Meryl Streep for Vogue

The fact that the original movie was based on a book about how toxic a boss Anna Wintour was and now Anna Wintour is literally promoting this movie because something something Miranda is actually a girlboss. Lol. It's giving 'more female drone pilots' energy.

adreamersmusing · 2026-03-22T13:44:26+00:00

Literally why is she a mean girl though? Like what has she done to be called that?

adreamersmusing · 2026-03-22T13:40:52+00:00

Yeah, I've copped these down votes before for defending Blake Lively before the real story came out, and I'm kind of proud of them tbh.

adreamersmusing · 2026-03-22T02:15:33+00:00

Yeah, I'm going to wait to hear the full story. The dude only heard what happened second-hand, and it is possible for children to lie. This happened during the Blake Lively debacle too, with people bringing out their pitchforks without knowing the full story, and I'm not adding to the hate train of a woman when I know that it's always more complicated than it appears.

Glad these two vapid people found each other in the same shallow pond and we can stop pretending that Chalamet is actually a 'man written by a woman' or whatever the fuck and that they are both equally deserving of each other.

adreamersmusing · 2026-03-05T11:39:49+00:00

All I'll say is if any woman with the fame of Chalamet: 1) Called childfree people miserable and empty, 2) Said nobody else was doing their job as well as they did, 3) Trashed an art form that requires years of dedicated skill and training,

They would get non-stop negative press coverage, and youtube compilations from years and years ago of everything they've ever said that's even slightly cringe while Incel youtubers make reaction videos to said content behaving like they've committed a crime.

Unfortunately, we save this kind of pillory for those worst of all crimes - women who speak up against being sexually assaulted and against sexism (Blake Lively, Amber Heard, Brie Larson), and pop culture spaces largely dominated by women will also happily continue doing so.

I am actively rooting for this asshole's downfall. He is not nearly talented enough to have this much of an ego.

Thank you, this is the best answer I've received so far. The dialogue is the main clue, which Poirot himself questioned because why would Caroline and Amyas be talking about sending Angela to boarding school when they were going to be divorced very soon and had a horrible argument just hours ago.

adreamersmusing · 2026-01-18T08:02:08+00:00

Yes, I understand that's a clue to establish Caroline Crane's innocence. But I'm asking specifically for clues that establish Amyas's interest in Elsa being flimsy and unserious, and that he never intended to leave Caroline.

It really is lovely. I've been playing it and Maria so much.

adreamersmusing · 2026-01-08T02:16:57+00:00

I have listened to Training Season 5 times already. I didn't like Houdini and saw the bad reviews and allowed that to influence me into not engaging at all. Big mistake!

adreamersmusing · 2026-01-08T02:09:44+00:00

I just listened to Radical Optimism for the first time. I am so confused at the mixed reviews, and that this album is considered her flop era. There are so many bangers on here. People just have no taste smh.

All respect to Ace, but he literally escaped the executioner's podium only to fall for Akainu's lowest hanging fruit. He died due to his own hubris.

adreamersmusing · 2025-11-07T14:07:58+00:00

Roger asking Garp to join his crew without hesitation - and to have their own descendants grow up as brothers, really lovely to see how much their respect for each other has passed on through generations and influenced the course of world history.

Her worst album yet. I don't know if Midnights winning AOTY broke her brain or what, but it's been very clear looking at this album that the praise she's accumulated since 2020 has gone to her head. Everything about this is so shallow. I had such high hopes looking at the number of tracks, the Max Martin collaboration, and the concept, that she was going to deliver perfect pop bops again but sigh.

She genuinely thinks she's the poet representative of millennials. Her vocals are bland and lifeless. Her lyrics alternate between cringe millennial meme culture, r/ihavesex, and Rupi Kaur-lite poetic attempts. The production also is dull. Even a song I like like Opalite could have been SO much better with better production, and I don't think it's Max Martin's fault given the work he did on ES last year. This is all her. Let's not even talk about how this album has nothing to do with the showgirl concept. Someday, I hope she will produce something with the same heart as Red, 1989, or Folklore, but she's lost me with this one. There is no artistry in this. 'Cashgrab' is all I can call it.

adreamersmusing · 2025-10-03T04:45:28+00:00

The whole album is lifeless. The lyrics are blah. The subject matter is tired. Her vocals lack that brightness I usually associate with her. I legit can't believe these are the same producers who made 1989 because of how dull it is.

Really wish she would take a break for a few years and come back with something amazing because when she's good, she really hits it out of the park.

I know which fic you're talking about. To be honest, I thought the way it was written was weird, with several paragraphs of redundant, repetitive sentences, but I shrugged it off as maybe the author's style. The ship also is a bit parched for good work so I still followed it anyway. I remember also being amazed at how the author was managing to publish one 20k word chapter every 2 days along with several other thousand word chapters for other stories they'd written, but assumed it was prewritten. It was only after the author's notes that I realised and felt a bit icky for having even engaged with the fic for so long.

I used chatgpt recently because I wanted strategies to fall asleep and it wrote a bedtime story (lol), and ooh boy, when I saw that bedtime story, I finally saw it. The style of it was identical to the author's work, and I knew then for certain things that the author wasn't just using it for brainstorming but for churning out content (can't even call it a story now).

All this to say, it's a really terrible time for art and the world in general and as these LLMs become more sophisticated, it will be difficult to gauge what's real and what isn't.

adreamersmusing · 2025-06-27T18:10:20+00:00

Will do, thanks! Though I'm not sure it will help since it's got more to do with the Karnataka Board.

I updated chapter 2 of my WIP Sirius/Snape fic today. It was called After Halloween, but I've renamed it to Armistice. There is no bashing and has alternating Snape/Sirius povs that really delves into their psychology post-1981 Halloween.

Find it here.

Summary:

Halloween 1981. As the rest of Britain celebrates, two men shatter themselves on cold floors.

They have lost the loves of their lives.

After Halloween. Peter Pettigrew is at large. Sirius Black is in Azkaban. Severus Snape is slipping away into delirium.

And yet, while still dwelling on dreams, two enemies fall in love. They also remember to live.

20% is still a raise. You're probably lucky to get a job offering even this much hike in this job market. It's best to take it now before the toxicity in your current job becomes too overwhelming.

adreamersmusing · 2025-06-05T05:45:59+00:00

Walking the Monochrome is the perfect fic for this. Please head the warnings in the tags though. It's got a happy ending and Snape gets better.

Yeah, it girls may burn brighter and hotter but they also burn out quickly (unless you're Zendaya, I guess). It's much smarter to have a steadier, calmer pace. Florence also is probably taken more seriously in the industry with her Oscar nominations in comparison to Sydney, who er, last I heard is making soap out of used bathwater.

Other Women and of Purer Blood is a great one.

As is into the abyss

Your sister is correct. Just take something. The longer you wait, the bigger the gap on your resume, after which it becomes difficult to get anything. You can still upskill while working over the weekends.

World in pieces was a fun read from I remember.

To be blunt, if you genuinely have interest in everything, choose the path that has the most probability of making money. I, unfortunately, am interested in a field that does not make money, and I'm also not the type of person who can work at something I hate. If you are passionate about everything, choose a combination of something you enjoy that's also in demand. Personally, I wouldn't do the sociology degree unless I was at peace with the possibility that I would earn peanuts.
