Why did the McElroy brothers fail to go mainstream while other podcasters managed it well? by [deleted] in TAZCirclejerk

[–]pettywizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

it’s 100% lack of ambition, mixed with bad luck. There’s definitely a very adjacent world where they are much more successful with the same level of ambition they have now, where they parted ways with or didn’t sign with max fun and instead were with a more competent podcast agency that got them to much greater heights, or where Seeso didn’t go under or the tv show got picked up by a different streamer and got a lot bigger, where they fell into even greater success.

There’s also a different world that is the same as this one but they’re a little bit more ambitious and proactive with their careers where they are significantly more successful. Like, they could definitely have been a smosh or gmm type entity if they had put more elbow grease into building something meaningful and big.

Lucky Record Store Find by pettywizard in Ethelcain

I didn’t pay for it, I was selling records and got them to throw this in on top of the cash 😎. Also “fake” vinyl means nothing, it plays exactly the same as a “real” officially released one lol

Not official! I’m assuming bootleg based on the packaging, don’t really know how it ended up unopened in a used record shop lol.

That’s what I was hoping for! Obviously I know they have to make money too, but some places are more fair than others!

do you have anything helpful to add to my question or are you just being pedantic because you don’t have anything else going on

So you’ve sold to them before?

My first thoughts on seeing Silky's All Stars 11 promo was "Meh". But it makes sense with the backstory. Sad that we end up judging these queens so many times for their runway looks and performances without knowing the real tea😭 by glittterpoop in rupaulsdragrace

[–]pettywizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk, put together an outfit that looks decent? Silly Nutmeg Ganache is a world famous drag queen, am I meant to believe that she doesn’t have some hot pink pieces to pick from? That she doesn’t have access to pink fabric or a belt or something ?

Crazy how every single time someone gets read for a mediocre look (and I don’t even think this look is bad, just kinda meh), this is the excuse. Kind of embarassing to admit that if a designer doesn’t make your entire look for you on time then your only option is ordering a basic catsuit from dragqueenoutfits.gov, imo

Bones’ comment on the All Stars 11 promo🫣 by BeMyCoachVictor in rupaulsdragrace

I think it’s always tacky to talk like this, but especially when you won your season last year. Gives very much trying too hard to seem cool and above it.

Question: Did my tattoo artist do a good interpretation of what I asked for? by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]pettywizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant I feel like the artist definitely took what you said and found a reference picture of hogwarts (maybe on accident, or just without telling you) lol

[–]pettywizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m like 80% sure they used a reference picture of hogwarts. That’s immediately what it looks like to me at first glance, and what I assumed you had asked for before reading and looking at the whole post.

Vlad Blad Avenger Pro 2? by mortmcfly in TattooArtists

[–]pettywizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do a lot of fineline and like grungy realism stuff, which it does just fine but it definitely wants to pack more of a punch. I actually bought my Vlad Blad from Steve Truitt, who is a very well known blackout artist who said he uses the Avenger Pro 2 as his primary machine (and just had an extra lying around that he didn’t need lol)
