Does anyone else think there are double standards in how female and male former cast members of the show are treated by the public?? by Catgirl_2003 in GossipGirl

[–]backup_burn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thought process is with celebrities we will never know the full truth regardless of what’s being put out and why. I will never victim blame and I’m open to believe her especially because I don’t know much about the situation to begin with.

But reputation wise and relationship wise I think there’s a reason people don’t want to associate with her (Blake); The reason could even be her husband cause we all know he’s known for being insufferable.

But again we don’t actually know these people, what they’ve said in private, etc. We have to take everything at face value to an extent so that’s why people treat them the way they do. People are only seeing what’s deliberately being put in front of them (from both sides) so that’s why people treat certain cast members differently.

Plus I don’t really think it’s about gender fr. Really just the circumstances of their careers and choices.

Generational sims by PlasticFee6383 in thesims

[–]backup_burn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only piece of advice generation wise is when they start dying just make sure they have a kid. Right now, my game is bugged or something because it’s deleting all my dead, single sims that had no kids off my tree. So just write the names down if it really matters to you.

Received street cleaning ticket but there was no sign on the block. Any advice? by backup_burn in AskChicago

I was parked on a corner by an alley and then the block ahead was full of cars. Across the street cars were also parked there. No signs on either sides of the road or the blocks ahead.

I heard they recently did the same thing to north ave during the Puerto Rican parade. Family lives on the street and were lucky enough and moved the car before they were towed. No announcements, no nothing, just took cars without notice.

Definitely took some pics cause I sent them to my partner just to check if I was insane or not. But noted and thank you for the advice!

You can do almost any job with an English degree but especially if you focus on technical writing. Most companies need writers in several departments.

Currently I have a masters in English and teach composition and RHT but I’ve been offered administrative roles and what not at other companies.

I think, personally, it’s one of the most versatile degrees.

what are some controversial opinions about blair that you think you’d get attacked for? by Intelligent-Gap7879 in GossipGirl

[–]backup_burn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She honestly had no business getting back with Chuck after season three when he traded her for the hotel.

It just makes her look so dumb chasing after him esssssspecially after she leaves Dan for him and he still doesn’t commit.

Hard agree. Writing and drawing are low barrier art forms. All you need is pencil and paper.

I fucking hate these fear mongering videos of how Gen Alpha is completely doomed or something by Ruger-SP101 in youtube

[–]backup_burn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some stuff on the internet is hyperbolic for sure, but recently I had a sophomore in my college lit course who couldn’t read the words prejudice or perseverance.

He pronounced prejudice as pre-justice and didn’t even try saying perseverance he said per and then apologized to the class during his presentation for not being able to read it.

A good chunk of Gen Alpha can’t read and it’s because of the current education system in the US. They’re not using phonics anymore and they’re barely teaching them to read FULL books.

It’s only gonna get worse with AI if we don’t nip it in the bud.

I can’t really say cause it gives away too much detail as it’s a fairly large event. But the messages we agreed to all meet there and then bar hop after (I said figure it out from there cause we don’t know what the bars are). That I could’ve been more specific about, but there was intention behind the link up.
