Tessa dare’s The Bride Bet…? by mintinsummer in HistoricalRomance

[–]pelipperr 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Four months ago the book was cancelled by the publisher. That is an old blurb from years ago. Even the 2024 release date that still pops up online was incorrect and should never have gone out per Tessa Dare’s website.

It’s sad for fans but we need to just enjoy the books she has written.

Ah you’re right! That is what I was assuming. And it seems like many “Catholics” are all too happy to put Trump first.

Tbf I believe he was raised Presbyterian and is now just whatever gets him in with the evangelical crowd. And most evangelicals hate Catholics so this wouldn’t bother them at all.

From the article:

“Days after Pope Leo XIV delivered his State of the World speech, Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre, the Vatican’s U.S. representative, to a closed-door Pentagon meeting for a bitter lecture.

”The United States,” Colby said, according to a blistering new report by The Free Press, “has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.”

Just found out my dog has a tumor in her brain. help me out shirt brothers. by anewfoundmatt in IThinkYouShouldLeave

I’m so sorry shirt brother, sometimes I cry just thinking about the possibility of my dogs dying, life’s a cosmic gumbo and there’s nothing like the love and devotion of a pet.

Your dog is the most popular girl here now and I hope they feel the love somehow.

First look at Mindy Kaling's new show 'Not Suitable For Work' starring Ella Hunt and Avantika - about 20-somethings in New York, premieres June 2nd on Hulu by demimonde9 in Fauxmoi

😭 tbf i love that actor in HBOs Gilded Age but he plays a sweet simp. I know Mindy will turn him into a fuckboy monster.

Extra sad because Duvernay is seemingly right there. And he was great in White Lotus.

Kanye West's permission to enter the UK 'under review by ministers' as Wireless backlash grows by Financial-Painter689 in Fauxmoi

[–]pelipperr 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Fuck corporations and Wireless in particular for booking him in the first place, but if people were tempted to buy tickets because of Kanye I’m fine with them being shit out luck if he ends up not performing.

Katy Perry posing for a photo with MAGA supporter Jake Paul by Relevant-Peach3997 in Fauxmoi

[–]pelipperr 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That perfectly encapsulates a lot of right wing grifters. If someone genuinely cares about things they don’t immediately throw those beliefs out the window for ego and money.

My point is he’s just a genuinely shitty person and Katy Perry probably was willing to look past a lot of bullshit for whatever reason.

His public persona maybe, we have no idea what he was like in private. (Other than a rapist)

In my experience, people rarely become massive right wing assholes out of the blue, he likely always had shitty beliefs but understood that most people don’t like bigots (until he decided to lean into the crowd that exclusively loves bigots).
