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 ๐
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 ๐ which it has!
