The bits that took me out this week were Rep. Rashida Tlaib laying humanity out on the table, Mr. Chair, and the Jelly Roll clip. I can’t stand that song, like it hurts to listen to because I hate his voice (strong word I know) but I’m a stan now because what an acceptance speech!! Give him the damn Best New Artist grammy!! I’m easily influenced 🫡

actually maybe this is a larger thing to write about but there are some artists / celebs (lorde, cardi b, melissa mccarthy, jennifer lawrence, emma chamberlain) whose work, for me, i don't like – but any interview they give...i'm entertained. jelly roll is one of them!

Very much into this, consider me sat 👀 not to go back into last week but Long Island Medium is one of these ppl to me - I don’t care about her but what she does for others, like damn, it gets to me!

Back to back great essays in this! I also noticed the vibe shift. Specifically with media skepticism, which hasn't been this high since the 60s

thank you! and SOMETHING is going on 😭 i feel like i write something about this every year (or even twice a year) but something about the texture at the moment is...different. i would like an astrologer to weigh in!!

Understandable considering what we write about, but literally EVERY celebrity feels out of touch w whats going on. We don't need a psychic bb
