I'm confused, have celebs stopped using the internet/social media? is it all just their agents/marketing firm bots doing it now?

Some celebs are on social media a lot, like Chrissy Teigan and John Mayer. Swift very rarely comment or even post stuff on social media though.

Next thing you know somebody will find out that Taylor Swift is actually a programming wizard and nobody but her and her bots post on 4chan.

Why would she do such a thing? Nobody knows, not even her.

At press time, officials at nearby Memorial Hospital confirmed that, in addition, a dozen adult males died in the fire, all of them loving fathers who had gone out to the store several years earlier and were just on their way back home with big presents for their children when they saw the fire and tried to save the trapped dogs.

Dear god, that's Sad Kevin's Opus

"I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of terrified howling," said Greta Landry, 79, who lives down the road from the farm. "Those poor, trapped dogs were barking so desperately, almost as if they were calling out for the little boys and girls who used to care for them when they were younger, but no one ever came."
