I need to re-read “Girl, Interrupted,” I recall a line that refers to Daisy’s father being so much in love with her mostly because she was his creation. He cannot help wanting to fuck something so fucking perfect.

She definitely signed her rights away somewhere. She’d get sued to oblivion.

Exactly, you don’t get rich by valuing the work of others.

Yeah, that part was neat! It was absurd and ominous, like the beginning to a good creepy story, given that neither Marla nor Tiffany is the president.

I would guess that they can afford it. I think the problem is that they feel entitled to it.

the stylist is used to a certain lifestyle as well, getting paid for her services.

No one is cheaper than the rich. No one.

I’m not trying to say that $300 isn’t a lot of money, but can these two seriously not pull together more than $300 for the inauguration between them? That’s... kind of pathetic.

Used to a certain lifestyle?!?!?

Oh, someone accused me of being a “special snowflake” the other day when I expressed that people were scared not just for their safety but for their *lives* so I snapped

I’m a little unclear from the article: Whose budget limit is this? Is it self-imposed? Donald-imposed? Ceremony-imposed? I don’t get why they would have a limit.

I am so, so tired of people thinking that stylists, artists, musicians, etc can pay their bills and cover costs “for exposure.”

Maples was worried about her financial situation with Tiffany out of college, ending child-support payments from the president-elect. “She is used to a certain lifestyle and you don’t understand that.”

I will work for exposure when my mortgage company starts taking exposure as payment. This is all too common in the arts and causes me to rage stroke on the regular.

“Yeah? And?”

Be sure to read the part of the story where the client who referred Maples/Trump to this stylist threatened her for turning it down: “You’re messing with the President of the United States.”

Donny: money is not an object for my #2

I may understand she’s “used to a certain lifestyle,” but I don’t care.

There we go again.
