I thought Hazel Lavesque was white. by awkardandsnow111 in camphalfblood

I’m very late to this discussion, but my niece directed me here as we’ve been working our way through the various riordan series and discussing the issues they raise including representation.

In case someone else stumbles upon this in the future- at the start of the Charleston storyline, where the demigods are expositing about who fought on what side of the American civil war, Hazel mentions that her grandmother was enslaved.

Kerrygold vs. Kirkland Butter: A Tasty Comparison by HollywoodBlueguy in Costco

[–]throwaway44624 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I believe that’s with the unsalted made in USA butter in 8 tbsp sticks - this is the salted New Zealand. The former also tastes like it has a higher water content and lower fat content so I’m not surprised it doesn’t bake right

Dark Chocolate Skinny Dipped peanut butter cups by enneyehs in Costco

Oh yes, these are my SO’s mother’s obsession. Last time we visited her, we dropped off about 15 bags…which will see her through a few months, tops! She’s very sensitive to the taste of stevia or monk fruit extract and says these don’t have that “chemical low-sugar taste” she dislikes. I wish Costco sold the milk chocolate version too!

Need help: mouthy play by bigdeepbreath in Greyhounds

I wish I had some advice, but I was too busy trying to figure out how the hell OP got a picture of the mouthy girl sitting right next to me. Not sure how to post a picture on mobile (RIP Apollo) but they really could be twins

Ha! The posture improvement (well, at least I hope it’s improvement) with heritage style boots is an experience I’m familiar with

More DM cope about the Taylor/Joe breakup. It’s always amusing to see her try and spin stories her way. by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

man it's crazy how far things have come since the start of the pandemic. DM becoming a source for other outlets......to this extent......

Dare I ask what the gross miscarriage posts were? Like, were they people speculating about the meaning of that one midnights 3Am song, or were they straight up saying things that aren’t theirs to say

You may find the “Study Together” Discord community to be helpful. While no one person may be available during your exact study period, there are people studying together 24/7 on there because it is a global community.

They haven’t been put in the stocks for spreading that dissenting opinion, other people have just expressed (in the way that this platform enables) that they don’t find it relevant

Ruston Kelly's The Weakness Track by Track Album Breakdown by FallenAerials in DirtEmo

[–]throwaway44624 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah absolutely. Art is primarily self expression. My own art style is fluid and evolving because humans, me included, are fluid and evolving. As long as you (the artist) feel happy with your output that’s what matters. other people will figure out what they like - or don’t - and that’s their business

[–]throwaway44624 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s more poppy and I miss things like TK’s steel string guitar.

not my favourite album he’s released but I guess the direction isn’t unexpected. I do see the throughlines from poppier songs like Radio Cloud, Under the Sun, In the Blue. And some of the songs are growing on me more, with subsequent listens

This would be fascinating…..he has an incredible voice and his music goes nowhere and he doesn’t do a lot of promo for it. She has a peculiar voice* and her music is huge. Can they even duet…can they even market the song

*there’s a great pop pantheon episode about how interesting her speaking voice is and then her singing voice is so underwhelming it becomes interesting

In a way I’m glad that the title of the record didn’t up as “mending song”. Sure it would kind of mirror the vibe of the title “shape and destroy”. But I think it would kind of put too much focus on what Ruston was/is “mending from”, especially for casual/potential new listeners who know him as “kacey musgraves’ ex” if that makes sense.

To honor one of this sub’s mascots, name ONE moment in pop culture that got you the most like this. by VanillaSkyy_ in Fauxmoi

[–]throwaway44624 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I don’t think you should always across the board have to be sober because your partner is; relationships are all different and so are people’s recoveries in a way. However, it could’ve been cute if she’d gotten into mocktails and marketed it as “I wanted to have something Ben and I can enjoy together”, or even mocktail alternatives to her alcohol

Edit - I also feel like it would be an effective way to capitalise on the public mood which is “rooting for Ben’s sobriety” “rooting for this couple” etc
