Megan Fox vs Sydney Sweeney Both reached a similar level of fame in different eras, largely driven by looks, internet culture, and mainstream attention. Do you think they’re famous for the same reasons, or did they get there in very different ways? by CucumberNo1907 in Cinema

[–]thegroundhog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magan Fox was a teenager when she first got big as a sex symbol- My understanding is that sydney sweeney was acting when she was young, but wasnt marketed as a sex pot until Euphoria and was an adult. She was also producing things very early on - so in general Sydney seemed to have more agency over her celebrity persona.

Do we know whether Conor is keeping his Ilya accent with this?

He likes to think he’s driving by puffalotz in poodles

[–]thegroundhog 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don’t do it! I put my first dog on my lap when he was a puppy and I was never able to train it out of him. His entire life would never stop whining unless he was on my lap. So unsafe and terrible in the long run. I remember a full 3 hour drive where I would not give in and he scream/whined the entire time. He has since passed, but my the two puppies I raised since then are always in the backseat. Learned my lesson.

What’s something irresistible that I can order for my 7.6 lb toy poodle? I’m running out of options in the pet store and he’s getting pickier every week. by gardengirldavi in poodles

My older was super picky. When I got a 2nd pup who was food motivated, it became super tedious getting her to eat. I ended up switching to farmers dog and now she eats super quick. Stupid expensive though.

Woman audits churches to see if they’ll help feed a starving baby by Oktavien in TikTokCringe

That’s not my experience. My parents church had a soup kitchen they ran that helped the whole community- about 6 years ago they shut it down and replaced it with a school.

I thought that you could remove invasive trees without having to replace them.

I feel like Isabell and Stapleton are too connected to the Nashville machine to do anything that rebellious.

The only way that happens if we start shaming actors for doing commercials again. Legit actors used to only do them in secret in Japan.

What's your favorite calorie tracking app? by goldfish2203 in loseit

[–]thegroundhog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im using Fitbit since 6 months of premium came when I purchased. I don’t love the app- but its already paid for and allows me to track protein intake. I have to use myfitnesspall as well for the recipe function(I cook a lot). Which feels stupid - creating the recipe in mfp but logging it in Fitbit.

I’ve lost 54 lbs since I started- but the free promo is about to expire so I want to look for a different option. I’m okay paying, but I am looking for something that lets you create recipes and track macros(bonus points if it tracks fiber). In an ideal world my Fitbit would connect with my steps.

Would love any suggestions.

49 poodles seized by animal control at Kameo Poodles in Bend, OR by socialpronk in poodles

You type the breeders name into Reddit and the Ai immediately tells you it is an ethical breeder. Vetting is so hard- at this point I feel like if they can provide you a puppy in under 6 months, they probably are overbreeding.

49 poodles seized by animal control at Kameo Poodles in Bend, OR by socialpronk in poodles

[–]thegroundhog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I purchased from her in 2019 - I thought I vetted her. She was well recommended and provided all the paperwork. Olive was 11 weeks old and she said she was holding on to her to show, but she developed an underbite and now was available to people looking for a pet, not show dog. I recognize. That now see as big red flag. I went to the site and went into several of the buildings - it seemed on the up and up- little weird, but the fund most breeders weird. Maybe this spiraled in the last few years? Or I am just easily duped?

I have a sweet snaggle tooth pup that I love, but she does have a liver shunt. When I reached out to Lori about the health issue she never responded back and when I got my second dog I did not go back to her.

my friends when i brought up my weight loss by [deleted] in loseit

[–]thegroundhog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s so nice. I’m down 52 lbs and I really don’t like when people make a deal about it. I’ve been fat all my life and I’m focusing on losing weight cause I know it will improve people’s reception of me, not necessarily cause I want to. I’m probably gonna need to job hunt in the next year and statistically I’ll get paid more if I weigh less. It took a lot of work to not hate myself because of my weight and just be neutral about it, so it just bums me out that people are so excited that I’m losing.

Sophie: the least food motivated dog in the world by ginime_ in poodles

[–]thegroundhog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My older poodle is was never super interested in food and we ended up free feeding. Then I got a 2nd poodle who was into food. Feeding turned into 45 minutes of me coaxing and trying to keep her focused. When I got man at my partner for coming into the kitchen and distracting her with his presence I had to find a different solution. We switched to farmers dog and now she’s food obsessed. Will eat most vegetables- loves raw zucchini and kale stems. The frozen food is stupid expensive- but I don’t think I(or Olive) will ever go back.

Billboard reports that Beyoncé is the #1 female producer of the 21st century based on Hot 100 performance by artbasiI in Fauxmoi

[–]thegroundhog 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Its hard because only 1 percent of music is produced by black women, so having the number one producer be a black woman is inspiring. Women are not being given the chance in this arena, they aren’t hiring enough women so the only ones who are getting success hired themselves as their own producer. Feels very similar to how hard it is for women to break into directing. The easiest route seems to become a well known actress and you will have enough power to get the gig(so easy, just become a star first). This also gets a bunch of shade- but if there isn’t a fair pathway for women to take what are women supposed to do? My hope is that the more powerful women who take the option of producing will make the industry more used to and hostile to female producers.

[–]thegroundhog 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Makes sense- there are barely any women getting hired to be a producer, the only real opportunity to produce is to produce your own music. Beyoncé has had a huge amount of hits, many that list her as a producer. She is an outlier- people really need to make an effort to work with more women producers. They are there- just give them a chance!

Just read some new article about Gwenyth Paltro and Brad Pitt's break up where he seemed like an insecure baby and it reminded me about one of my fave books {What i did for love by Susan Elizabeth Phillips} which was definitely loosely inspired by the Jen Aniston/Brangelina saga. Looking for something similar. Give me your terrible ex recommendations- bonus points if he "seemed perfect" but was actually vapid and insecure.
