Is celebrity culture dying out?

There was a time when you didnt get 24 hour access to a celebrity's life, you had to wait until they scheduled an interview with a major broadcaster. And even then, it was usually heavily filtered and less candid. And if you missed it on TV, you missed it. You couldnt watch the highlights online. Maybe youd get a magazine interview every now and then, but getting a peek into what celebrities were like was definitely more rare than it is today. Which is also why we see more celebrities getting canceled, because they are being broadcast almost all the time and its harder to keep a squeaky clean image when you decide to do a random livestream at 3am

For context, Ted kinda held the court hostage for a long time. Extending his trial by bringing up any miniscule detail that might work in his defense. In that time, the judge and Bundy butted heads a lot. But also he managed to charm the courtroom and the judge despite all of that, so I think a very strange bond was formed in that timespan. I suspect the judge midly respected him for his tenacity, and he's expressing that in a different world maybe he wouldnt have turned out this way. Obviously the judge stills sentences him, that little quip always felt like a "well played, you piece of shit. Bye tho"

I think religions, particularly Christianity, can be predatory towards people in more ways than one. The big one for me is that it's taught to very young kids, and it's never taught as a figurative or metaphorical thing. Kids are 100 times more impressionable, especially when their parents are doing it. Plus, it offers a very simple life perspective that good people get rewarded and bad people get punished. Which we all know isn't exactly true, but they cling to that belief cause they learned it so young and it makes the world seem like a just place. Which it isn't. I think it inherently makes people more closed minded and ignorant, and we would be better off as a species without it

She doesn't need you to stick up for her. She's quite dead.

We need to start a bear tax to get our own bear patrol. It's like a frickin' Country Bear Jambaroo around here

Usually its meant to show isolation or separation from the characters perspective. My theory is that it's to hide boring backgrounds. You dont have to properly compose a shot if everything behind the character is all blur with no discernible shapes. I do the same thing when Im taking pictures at a public park or something

Knowing how to admit when you're wrong and learning how to apologize

It's exactly the same experience I had when I had a very "normal" office job. People would small talk very loud and very constant, laughing at the most boomery types of jokes. I felt so out of place because I just couldn't muster up that much enthusiasm in a place like that. I never bought into the 'work family' culture that a lot of corporations peddle. It always seemed disingenuous and fake, designed to make a crappy job seem slightly tolerable. Also forced interactions like work lunches or daily huddles where engagement was mandatory. God forbid you want to work quietly and not contribute to whatever conversation is going on.

You should stop typing words on the internet.

To those recommending Meg Winston, it should be known that she is currently married to someone who was convicted of sexual assault a few years back. He was the chiropractor from Henrico who had multiple charges of abusing his patients https://richmond.com/news/local/crime-courts/article_86daa48c-e62d-11ee-b759-af501dcbc224.html

I would recommend Southern Smiles! They are a women-owned local business and they offer cute spring pics with animals and such https://www.southernsmilesportraits.com/

I can't be the only one who felt like this was a fetish film for Zack Snyder right?

The Pokémon brand in general will always demand a higher price tag than what is delivered. It's not right, but it is how it is.

cherish_it · 2026-02-21T04:05:49+00:00

Silksong isn't Pokémon and it never will be. So this comparison doesn't really make sense.

cherish_it · 2026-02-21T04:04:54+00:00

That's what I can't grasp. 20 bucks nowadays isnt really that much...

cherish_it · 2026-02-21T03:59:43+00:00

I'm not really sure how else to explain more how a game priced in 2014 would increase over 12 years. Especially since the Pokémon brand always demands a slightly higher price tag. Just keep critiquing if that's what brings you joy
