Taylor Swifts lawyers are very busy people, she has a name for being overly litigious. There's a bunch of stories out there where she's suing over things that are really petty for a famous rich white person to care about. Not sure how true any of those stories are, but tumblr has had a long run of dumping on Taylor as an expression of wokeness.

I'm reasonably certain that petty, bullshit lawsuits are a hobby for rich people in general.

can you cite some sources? The only lawsuits I've ever heard her being apart of is the counter suit to guy who groped her for 1$ to make him admit to being a pos. The people who sued her over shake it off infringing on their haters gonna hate copy right and when she donated to ke$has legal defense when ke$ha was trying to get out of the contract sony had with her so she didnt have to work with her rapist.

Actually I can not. A quick googling didn’t bring up a whole lot of intresting things. I just remember the narrative being pushed on tumblr a few years ago. Guess it was a pretty insular thing then

Why are you guys talking about pop music celebrities as though their overriding interest were anything other than remaining famous and continuing their career? You don't really accidentally become and stay famous over these periods of time, it's not like every day they wake up ready to quit and then stick it out just one more day for the orphans

That's pretty much the same for everyone though. Outside of immediate family, friends, and co-workers who would you notice died if you weren't watching the news or something?

I've been running through the first three Fallout games while seriously role-playing* an INT 10 character called BUTT MAN and sometimes during dialogue it's hard for me to get into her mind-set what with all the "Hello my name is BUTT MAN" dialogue choices.

*) Inasmuch as the games allow for it.

Pretty much all of my RPG characters are named after the spoof names that the Car Talk guys used to do for their credits. Personal makeup artist Bud Tuggli is a popular choice, or personal hygienist Oteka Shawa are probably my favorites, but there's a ton of them https://www.cartalk.com/content/staff-credits

Personally I find they lack the piss rear end of BUTT MAN.

Apparently Andre kept taking the movie's cast out on all night benders they were hungover as hell from while he barely noticed.

Dude literally was the basis of a new calculation for anaesthetic based on body mass from his drinking habits (two bottles of vodka to get buzzed)
