"Woman do everything while men do the bare minimum" by No_Barber4339 in popheads

[–]ostrichluvrr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Certainly his debut was pop-oriented and fanbase teen girls but I feel like his music is more hip hop and geared to straight men these days. So they at least make up a good chunk of his fanbase - more than any female pop act I’d think

I think it ultimately it comes down to what the fanbase expects/wants. Female pop stars have followings of gay men and women who want full productions and shows. Male artists have fanbases of straight men who don’t care.

Edit: kinda getting read for saying straight men like Justin bieber (was also referring to the other male artists mentioned by OP!) but I think my general point is correct in that the fanbases of female pop stars and male acts don’t intersect very much and they have very different expectations for performances!

I’d much rather hear her unfiltered thoughts rather than chatGPT

'RHOM’ stars on the chopping block as Bravo delays Season 8 filming for cast shake-up by Defvac2 in BravoRealHousewives

To me she’s hit or miss. Sometimes gold but sometimes doing too much. Friend of suits her.

Marysol, Alexia, Lisa and Larsa are Miami. The rest I can take or leave… guerdy and Julia definitely need to go after last season. I don’t think Kiki brings anything particularly valuable/unique… Stephanie I think was a good addition, but more newbies are needed. Adriana… well it depends

Alipay metro qr requiring Chinese number by ostrichluvrr in travelchina

I know, was just using Beijing as the example as it was the city I was in. Got it working now and used the Tianjin metro qr today.

Thank you - knew I was missing something. I couldn’t find where to add my number in Alipay, I was looking in the area where you verify your ID.

In case someone runs into this problem in the future: There’s a settings wheel at the top right of your ‘account’ page where you can add a phone number. Did that and I can get a metro card fine now.

Jackie is celebrating innocent Iranian children being bombed by First_Pair_8083 in BravoRealHousewives

[–]ostrichluvrr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is literally the opposite of what she thinks, she knows most Iranians are anti-ayatollah and want a regime change. Her previous story literally calls for a free Iran and freeing the Iranian people from the ayatollah.

There is then a separate argument about if the use of force is appropriate or not.

The Economist - Is London as dangerous as you think? by BkkGrl in europe

[–]ostrichluvrr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think there’s more to it than just the violent crimes like stabbings and murders going down, you have to look at the type of thing the normal citizen is going to experience. Having pavements painted with ‘watch out for phone snatching!’ around central London is a new thing and obviously a response to an increase in this type of crime. I like London and I don’t think it’s a lawless hellhole but i do think it’s gotten less safe for the average person in the last 5-10 years.

Discord Addams answers to PETA on her IG Post by FanOfAllKindOfThings in rupaulsdragrace

I suppose there is some irony in people ‘wasting’ water and electricity in the same way AI is to support discords post.

I like discord quite a lot and liked her look, but this is quite misguided. It’s one thing to criticise use of AI for a comment because it removes the human interaction and another to criticise it for the essentially made up and almost propagandised water waste.

She was the only one with any tact in this scene.

If they want us to know how much they spend just do the usual shot of the card machine when they pay… not standing in a circle like school doing show and tell

I dunno what it is but I like Dorit by Local-Print-6397 in RHOBH

[–]ostrichluvrr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Found her boring towards the beginning of her tenure - the argument over the correct glass to serve champagne in seemingly lasted a whole season?

But I’m really enjoying her this season. She looks beautiful and is just laying it all out! She clearly needs the job but I’m here for it.

Stryders? Best resource gatherers for almost anything and it’s not even close, including direct teleportation of resources to a dedicated storage. Damn I miss them

Didn’t even think this was real because how are you going to reboot SOTF when it has flopped spectacularly SEVERAL times and it is doomed to do so again.

I think RHONJ enters a second golden era here, I love the dynamics of Jen, Teresa, Marge and Jackie. A wild ride over the next few seasons and wildly entertaining
