The ads support the individual station, not the musicians or the label.

I remember reading an interview a few years back (per someone leaving the industry) that game companies are under bigger financial stress than they’re letting on. The landscape of video games is changing rapidly, and J-companies are notoriously slow to adapt to anything.

People who go out do so to get “turnt”, as it were. They’re looking for some loud, exciting fun, to drink until their inhibitions are low enough to act insane, and maybe go home with a near-perfect stranger at the end of all of it.

Well, both to be fair.

One could also argue that the hyperbole heaped upon films like Hereditary by critics is counterproductive, setting unrealistically high expectations.

My mother spent the majority of her life swearing up & down that she hated horror movies, and would only watch the ones I dragged her to.

I hate shock horror and will never watch any of it (A Serbian Film, Irreversible, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, The Green Inferno, Begotten, etc etc).

I just said that not everyone can eat the same way. That has nothing to do with one’s ability to buy food.

Well, I wanted to go see Action Point in theaters this weekend, but every showtime is so late at night I can’t possibly see it!

I turn partially fruitarian during the summer months.

Cause it’s often not that easy. Most people have some form of dietary quirk that makes it uncomfortable/unhealthy to eat “normally” (which is purely relative, anyway).

I like the makeup line, not the person.

This is going to sound completely horrifying, but a part of me is simply starting to make peace with the thought that I will most likely die by own hand at some point. If access to almost unlimited resources can’t save you, then what the hell will?

I can tell you with pretty good certainty that the only reason why I’m still here is because I live in a household with no guns or rope.

The Kpop community had a similar conversation after that guy from SHINEE committed suicide, but maybe it’s also time to reassess how much we expect from others. A lot of us really do go through life expecting the people around us to be perfect, especially those in the service and entertainment industries.

Hearing all these stories over the past 2 years of all these wealthy, successful, extremely well-respected artists committing suicide (Chris Cornell, Chester Bennington, Kate Spade, Kim Jong-Hyun, and now Bourdain) reminds me of Steiner from La Dolce Vita.

You don’t necessarily have to personally know them. If it’s someone who had a big effect on your life, even a distant celebrity could “spread” suicidal tendencies.

Please do. Even if you’re passionate, no job is worth it

At this point, I’m ready to delete the entire fucking internet. These cowardly assfucks existed before social media, but they were forced to live in lonely solitude or risk getting a fist to the face saying it in person. This place just gives them a platform.
