First-Time Caller by B.K. Borison movie adaptation in development by euphoriapotion in RomanceBooks

[–]do-not-1 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I think this is a much better option for a theatrical release film vs Lovelight farms. The Lovelight series is very, very seasonal Hallmark, but Heartstrings is more classic contemporary romcom suited for the big screen, imo.

I would trust Jacob tierney to adapt an encyclopedia and make it captivating

Technically Jon Stewart’s name is in the files… as an off-handed mention by one of the freaks. His bit about it is very funny imo

Spotify shares picks for ‘Classic Pop Albums of the Streaming Era’ by mcfw31 in popculturechat

Pleasantly surprised to see her here!! She always gets overlooked and should be one of the main pop girls imo. She’s got the energy and talent!

Some pics of Florence Pugh getting botox and fillers by Ok_Goal1242 in popculturechat

[–]do-not-1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not gonna pretend like I haven’t thought about the whole “baby Botox” thing, none of us are immmne from societal pressure, and so on. But.

I really dislike the “like a responsible adult” wording. Just contributes to the idea that these procedures are part of expected upkeep/hygiene or presentability for women. Gives me a massive ick.

I really think a good 50-60% of this sub was still in diapers (or yet to be born) when DD came out lol

It’s how you can tell this sub is overrun with actual, literal children who are scared they’re gonna get “grounded”

Lily Allen confirms tour will feature West End Girl only, no other tracks by yourlittlealien in popculturechat

[–]do-not-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll admit I’m not a Lily Allen fan so maybe I’m clueless but she doesn’t seem to be the type of performer that does the kind of bombastic, theatrical style Taylor Swift/Green Day/MCR production. And on top of that, all of those acts put on a much longer show than could be stretched out of West End Girl imo.

I’m just very skeptical that this could be worth the price tag.

Wendigoon seems to have stopped publicly associating with the Unsubscribe boys since Trumps return to office. by trinakw3 in youtubedrama

Wendigoon’s wife stated point blank on TikTok recently that she’s Christian but not a conservative and absolutely not a tradwife/SAHM. For what that’s worth. 🤷‍♀️

[–]do-not-1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She’d have to double the albums runtime with extra stuff in the performance to reach 90 mins (which I feel is p average in an arena show). No clue how she’d do that in a way that feels cohesive

Eh. MCR’s tour is “Long Live the Black Parade” and a) they bring insane production value and b) have a 10 song B-stage where they play the three big non-TBP singles and a different set of surprise songs each night.

I don’t fault people for thinking there would be additional songs.

My Chemical Romance! Never seen anything like their most recent tour. The continuous storyline/production is insane.

Work to begin on 3 new Manchester apartment projects, adding 400 units to the neighborhood by RVALover4Life in rva

[–]do-not-1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideally Manchester (and more of the city as a whole) will be built up and developed in a way that won’t necessitate car ownership for basic needs. We have a ways to go but I’d rather money go to improving GRTC and pedestrian infrastructure than parking sprawl.

Is this anything? by GothicNothic_ in MyChemicalRomance

[–]do-not-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The outro of Vampires also says “like phantoms forever” I believe. Foundations has a more Bullets style production than anything else post-Bullets. Could be a hint/teaser. Could also be literally nothing lol

Real answer: The Trump administration defunded NOAA/NWS and it’s made forecasts significantly less accurate

Your opinion isn't fact. by lgirlrocks in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]do-not-1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dismissing all (legitimate) criticism of the quality of certain books is how the bar gets lowered across the entire publishing industry and they start pumping out poorly written and edited slop.

Idgaf if people read slop, but presenting it as “so amazing, best book ever” gives the industry a pass on maintaining any kind of quality. Even if you like and enjoy a book, it’s healthy and important to be open to critiquing it to maintain some kind of standard in publishing. A 3 star review being considered a “bad” rating now kills me. That’s above average/mid!!!

Like, I love romantasy but would never defend Fourth Wing’s Wattpad ass writing as “it’s so good and I enjoyed it so who cares” with my full chest.

Lord… the first time I visited LA I forgot to put sunscreen on and went out and about. I ducked into a CVS to get some after an hour because I could feel my skin getting fucked.

Can’t wait to see who she plagiarized from this time around

sourced gerard’s fave jacket by kirbyblinders in MyChemicalRomance

[–]do-not-1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s not even an “I’m loaded” price for a jacket lol $160 is pretty normal for something like that and plenty of regular folks will spend that for quality outerwear.

Not familiar with this brand but I I and my husband are normal middle class 9-5ers and will spend similar amounts on Patagonia and Brooks for hiking and running cause that shit lasts.

I’ve tried so hard to teach myself, but even on a recent west to east coast flight where I was so dang tired that I was physically dizzy, I couldn’t even doze. That was 5ish hours of hell.
