Who's Afraid of Tyler Perry?
He has the potential to make better films and shows. He claimed that he only creates for his fanbase. As someone who used to be a part of that fanbase, I know this is not the kind of work he made that got him support in the 90s and 2000s. Was the work perfect back then? No. But there was care put into it. Now, it’s as if he’s just making movies and shows simply because it will make him richer than he already is. -
Anyone ready for 2023 to GTFO?
2023 has been a very draining year for many. Let’s go ahead and get the cat out of the bag. Every week, more like every day, it’s something new. Even when I am doing things for fun, I am with the dread of how dark the world is and want to lie down. -
Y'all were not nice to Rubi Rose.

Respectability politics has been a trending topic this year because of people's reactions towards celebrities. The main talking point I saw was, “Halle is a Disney princess, and you’re just a s*x worker,” and that’s where all the discourse began to go south for me.

Lila Rossi: A case where the obsessive fangirl goes too far.
I have developed a theory that Lila may have followed Adrien before the timeline we see within the series. Adrien is famous worldwide; while some people have no idea who he is (like the main character of the series didn't know he existed until he was in her class), overall, he can not go anywhere without being recognized by someone. When we first meet Lila in the series, she’s talking to Adrien. When I realized that Lila’s character wouldn’t exist if it were not for Adrien, I started to take note of all the odd things Lila did in relation to him.

Getting invested in celebrity drama is a waste of time.
Toward the end of 2022, I fell down the Blueface and Chrisean rabbit hole, an abusive relationship that people look at for entertainment. This relationship was a big distraction for me when I was making my Disneycember series when I realized I needed to cut back on being on social media a lot. I find it kind of applauding that many are pointing and laughing at this, as this isn’t fiction. These are real people.
