So, I don't consume a lot of media like films and TV shows. Sometimes I watch YT, but not often.

However, I love celebrity gossip. Don't care if I know them or not, but reading about their shenanigans is the highlight of my day.

Currently, Taryn Manning (Pensatuckey from OITNB) has been losing her mind on meth over the last year or so. That recent video of her has me rolling tbh, like, how many times can you rephrase "i licked your mans butthole" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I shouldn't laugh, but I will because fuck me it's funny

Edit: I also messed around with BG3 files as per GOG forums, and I have it installed now!! Hahaha yessss

I kindof like celeb gossip. It plays a role in society educating people that drama and failure and flaws are common. Sort of like reassurance. There is also a feeling of community.

But I don't like it when people pick on others just to feel superior.

And laughing is good, life and people can be so absurd, I don't think we ( meaning I ) watch enough comedies , I am **too **serious πŸ˜”

I'm sad that she's falling so far, meth, trump-supporter, etc, because I really like her. But I like reading all about their shenanigans because, like you said, reassurance. We're all human beings at the end of the day, and no amount of money or fame is going to change th fact that we all make mistakes, that we're all shades of grey.

The fear that any of us could fall into the pit is lessened when we see that no matter your standing, that pit doesnt care. All we can do is keep doing our best.

I hope she gets the help she needs, Pensatuckey was my fav character from OITNB and I hate seeing her become the flaws of that character. She's beautiful, she just needs to stop the meth and licking married mens butts

meth? There goes the truism that only failures use meth . Which is a really important message if there is a message at all.

I hope she has some good friends who can intervene and help her.

( Maybe she was lonely, famous/rich people often end up not knowing who to trust and trumpie type people were welcoming. )

or maybe she's saying stuff to shock people πŸ˜‚ which it has!

All good oh starchy oneπŸ‘

Edit: on second examination, that community looks a bit dead. soz.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Alles gut! I just like browsing. I have unsubbed from a whole bunch of subreddits to removed the hate-posts, and just have cats and pop-gossip now. I'm just glad there's a community here too, though I am not surprised it is relatively dead; the people who gossip may not be willing to learn a new platform (new to them).

Start posting my friend. You can be the savior of pop gossip

I love drama tbh. One of my fave subreddits is subredditdrama.

[–] RosaliePreistley@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hooray!! BG3. I have no idea what it is, but a couple of mates are into it too.

I have no interest in celebrities. They can lick my butthole though. 50$ a go. I'd be fine with that.

Get Taryn to do it, she doesn't mind apparently πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Can you pimp me out to her? Just lie and say I have meth.

Ok just watched the video WOW. Maybe her character in OITNB wasn't necessarily a huge stretch....
