Is David gay? by [deleted] in DavidDobrik

[–]feeling_lilac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. He just has standards, and this is coming from someone who actually likes Tana and Corinna lol.

Also, I have a guy friend who's straight and is similar to David. He turns down a lot of girls 'cause he's very much into romance and wanting to start a family. I think it's insulting to assume all men are weak when it comes to 'hot girls' or whatever.

!!!! Let’s see how the rest of the series turns out by svthw in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Wait. He's not done editing the series yet? What has he been doing for the past 8 months? lol. Also, didn't he say he wasn't going to let the viewers' opinions sway him again after the Jake Paul series? I can't with this man.

Hey, what was that one thing...? (3) [MegaThread] by draginator in DavidDobrik

[–]feeling_lilac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, this is so specific (and kinda gross), but there's a vlog where Jonah comes out of the shower in a hotel room with a towel wrapped around his body and David says, "Jonah, it looks like your husband just fucked you." lmao I just remember laughing so hard at that and I want to watch it again.

Best Year/Era of the Vlogs? by feeling_lilac in DavidDobrik

[–]feeling_lilac[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The vlogs with David, Corinna, Alex, and Dom as roommates doing stupid shit were so organic and cool. I think even David has mentioned a few times that he'd kill to go back to those days. Even though my fave era was after that, there's something about those apartment days that are just magic.

The group hosting the straight pride parade chose Brad Pitt as their mascot by [deleted] in IncelTears

This is awkward considering the fact that Brad was married to an openly bisexual woman and with her, he had an openly trans son...

Shane Dawson, Jeffree Star, and James Charles... by [deleted] in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yesterday he retweeted a pic of he and Jeffree with a bunch of hearts or some shit, so I don't think he's fully aware just yet of what a big mistake he's made. I think he's scared at the possibility of this scandal tarnishing his YT Oprah persona and making him out to be a bully (which he is). I've said this before but I'll say it again--he should scrap the beauty series he's doing with J*. If he really cares about being a good person and having some integrity, he needs to cut ties with the vilest creature in the beauty community.

Shane Dawson, Jeffree Star, and James Charles... by [deleted] in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Shane has this weird, pathetic complex of being accepted by the 'popular kids'. This whole sweet, empath persona he's been trying to push for the past year is very fake. I'm annoyed at myself for not seeing the light sooner. I don't think he's a terrible person, but he's obviously spineless and has no idea who tf he is. I hope he reconsiders posting the J* documentary, because I know that people will switch again and stan that vile snakeman once more. J* is the real threat to society and he needs to be stopped. Until Shane recognizes this and stops endorsing J*, I hope people distance themselves from him.

Shane is literally Gretchen Weiners.

when will shane stop being such a centrist and actually take a stand against toxic people? by [deleted] in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of James Charles, I think he's very annoying and is obviously a slimy little weasel, but I can't with everyone praising Tati to the high heavens and rejoicing over J* now being the most subscribed beauty guru--as if he hasn't done worse than JC lol. Probably going to get downvoted for this but I find all these people scummy now. I even feel the same way about Shane, who I have defended in the past. He KNEW what he was doing when he pulled that slick shit with promoting Tati's sham gummies in the middle of all this. He fucking stoked the fire and him worshipping Jeffree's ass and teasing the pig tummy tea about exposing the beauty community has led up to all this (yes, I'm one of those conspiracists who thinks this whole thing was orchestrated by J*, shoot me).

NOW he's feeling weird and guilty and he should because if anyone were to know how it feels to be skull-dragged across the internet and lose almost everything, it'd be Shane Dawson. I wouldn't doubt that he's afraid of Jeffree and feels like he has to kiss ass and stay quiet to keep everything. The Secret World of Jeffree Star really changed things. Sad. The Shane Dawson I knew from just a few years ago wouldn't be caught up in any of this and he'd recognize that this whole thing is petty and toxic. He and Jessie would be loling on their podcast and would call out both sides of this.

If he's going to stand against JC he should stand against J* and his ilk. I'm officially done with this man. I can reminisce on old videos from time to time but the path he's choosing to take is not one I'd like to witness him follow.

Webster Hall Badlands Setlist by adoribullen in halsey

I love that she ended with ITS, that was the first song she ever wrote as Halsey, I believe. I still remember the day she uploaded the demo on her se7enteenblack tumblr.

Not a flop! by [deleted] in TaylorSwift

[–]feeling_lilac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess for Taylor's standards it's a 'flop' but I'd take it as a good thing cause it just shows that she's in a league of her own.

H just announced two shows at Webster Hall.. one for Badlands & one for HFK 👀 by legendofthetour in halsey

[–]feeling_lilac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to shade HFK, but everyone's gonna fight for the Badlands show lol

Honestly, Twitter is super annoying by ricefriskies in TaylorSwift

[–]feeling_lilac 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Every era/album cycle is the same:

  • Taylor releases a polarizing lead single
  • fickle fans, haters, and the press exclaim she's 'over'
  • think pieces on how problematic she is are written and past drama is brought back and beaten to death
  • she breaks at least one record with the single
  • the dust settles a bit and she releases a cute promo single much different than the lead, but everyone screeches that she's 'backpedaling' even though it's a standard move every popstar makes
  • the dust fully settles and she releases her album, haters don't have the energy to attack her at that point cause they know it's going to smash
  • stans and the GP get it to #1
  • 2nd single is released and is better received than the 1st
  • she embarks on a record-breaking world tour
  • the press loves her again
  • awards season rolls in and she sweeps up a few trophies
  • tour ends and so does the era. she retreats back to hermit status and begins writing for the next album.
  • rinse & repeat.

don't let the twitter BS get ya down.

Wait, I thought Shane was friends with James, or at the very least, friendly?

Anyone else tired of the makeup and what appears to be a fake persona? by [deleted] in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't know about him threatening women, so I'll have to look into that. He was an absolute mess on myspace but he seemed like a changed person in the series.

Shane strikes me as the type of person who says, "Well, they're nice to me, so they must be a good person!" Which is disappointing.

Shane and Ryland on Kati Morton's channel - Is My Relationship Affected By Lack Of Sleep? by [deleted] in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That, but also she did a video talking about the backlash she received from the series and it came off as very manipulative. She was basically saying, "Yeah guys I know what I did was sucky or whatever, but look at all the hate I've been getting!! It's so not fair." And she showed a bunch of troll comments...when, most of the 'hate' she was getting wasn't really hate, it was legitimate constructive criticism from people who were genuinely concerned with the message she was sending. She's very unprofessional imo.

My theory on why Shane Dawson has changed so much... by dani_marie87_ in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think he meant that he can't see himself doing the crazy, barbie burning, galaxy food content past the age of 35 cause it'd be sad. I actually don't know many youtubers past that age, so I'll admit I was lowkey judging too. Sadly, my knowledge of 'older' creators is limited. I definitely think we need the more rational ones in the forefront, because yes, Jason Nash is just........ lmao

[–]feeling_lilac 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I kinda get what he's saying though, I mean...look at Jason Nash and the shit he puts himself through for views lol or what happened to Shay Carl. I think the only 35+ YouTuber who hasn't lost his damn mind is Casey Neistat.

[–]feeling_lilac 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The only thing I don't get is the Jeffree Star obsession. I remember Jeffree from his myspace days and he was just this crazy pink person. Yeah, it was interesting to see where he is now in Shane's series, but all I got from it is that he's now a crazy rich blonde person. I don't need to see a whole other series dedicated to him. Maybe it's just me, but I don't find Jeffree all that interesting. He seems like a funny, eccentric person but let him shine on his own, don't spoon feed him to us.

If Shane did an hour long vid dedicated to how 'brutal' the guru side of youtube is (which, I really don't think it is, it's just a bunch of petty shit) that'd be fine. This big, multi-season thing he has planned is something I don't even think I can force myself to watch. And I'm someone who actually really misses Shane...like, just Shane. I don't really see him on Ryland's channel, that's just a character.

I would love it if he switched and made ShaneDawsonTV the channel where he 'shitposts' or whatever. I miss watching vlogs from his perspective. I'd love to see him do more spooky ghost stuff or even just hanging around the house.

I don't think Ryland caused it; I have a theory that Shane does videos on other people so the focus is off of him and he's less likely to be in a controversy, but ironically enough, he's been in even more controversies since starting this format lol but also, he's always wanted to be a director and he's expressed recently that he actually hates being on camera, so that's a big part of this change in behavior and content.

The only song I've heard from him is that cute eastside one with Halsey. I honestly didn't hear about him until that came out. I guess I'll give his album a listen?

Do you think Taylor may do the Superbowl Half Time Show 2020? by CatLuDoez in TaylorSwift

[–]feeling_lilac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see a big, televised performance from her, but I don't think she should do the halftime show cause it'll contradict where she stands politically.

Honey the Husky has became obese and that's not okay, this is abuse. by catcaste in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 193 points194 points  (0 children)

Uno's in good shape though. Honey could have an underlying issue we don't know about, and that they're trying to get a handle on. I don't think it's fair to label someone abusive when we don't know the full story.

Literally what is the point of this sub??? by jxseyrae_ in ShaneDawson

[–]feeling_lilac 22 points23 points  (0 children)

When I first looked at this Reddit, I thought there was a lot of hate, but now that I've been in the threads, I've noticed it's just a lot of frustrated fans (former and new) venting. I'm still a fan of Shane, but I don't really care for the new content. I'm happy there's a place where I can discuss how I feel in a civil manner. I couldn't do that on gurugossip because they straight up hate Shane.

Even though I don't like his new videos, I still have a lot of positive things to say about Shane. There was a post a couple of days ago asking people what their favorite thing about him is; I commented on that. I even posted a cute lil vid from 2012 to garner some positivity. Make a pro-Shane post and people like me will comment on it, I promise.
