I’m so done with media. Life changing information

"Oh my god, that's so relatable! She's like a real person. "

Meanwhile that dog probably has a bigger housing and healthcare allocation than the average American family.

Paparazzi and yellow page media need to just fuck off and never return. Literally worthless people, who do nothing, but invade others’ privacy.

Emily Blunt, like any other actor, is a person. It’s her job to be an actor, and she does it. After that, she’s free to go home, enjoy her day, clean up after her pet, or do whatever else.

I don’t know why we need to treat this as some kind of a revelation from beyond

clean up after her pet

The headline didn’t say that.

I far prefer the reality where Emily Blunt doesn’t even own a dog but is notorious for showing up at random dog parks and running off with poop.

Such a pointless thing to be upset about. Turns out some people like funny/mildly interesting stories. How shocking.

Not every article ever written needs to be a Peabody contender. It's ok to read something frivolous sometimes.

It's upsetting because it's a representation of how Yellow Journalism, Tabloids, Paparazzi etc operate in the US. I have the least amount of compasssion ofr Americans, still find this intrusive and I can empathize how annoying it is.

She literally told the story herself on a podcast. How is that "intrusive"?

You could argue that if we didn't like mildly interesting or infuriating stories, we should not be in this community, hence could not read this post.

When I see stuff like this I just never go back there again. I don't give a shit what celebrities do or say. Make good movie. Be good actor.

One of the news sources I follow with RSS decided to publish a recipe for "apple nachos" for some godforsaken reason. I honestly kinda hope it's AI-generated garbage, because I'd truly be saddened if a human person used up some of their limited time on this Earth to redact this "article".

Imagine a guy not being able to afford good food. He has an apple and peanut butter and nothing more. He cuts it up, lays the peanutbutter on top, and thinks "holy shit this could get me through the article quota". He writes it, and can eat.

Celebs are really not interesting. Zzz.

Almost the definition of celebs is that significant numbers of people find them interesting. They may not be my favourite thing, but views differ

Yeah it's my opinion here, not planet earth. :)

How does that work? It takes a second to pick up dog poop. It takes less than a second to utter 'you're nominated!' This is virtually impossible. Unless she was like, picking up shitloads of dog poop?

Why are you reading Gamespot if you wanyt analyis of geopolitics?
