  1. Are there any spices you can't use? I saw salt, pepper, cayenne listed and presumably okay
  2. Yeah this is the part of her narrative that never made sense to me. I've yet to come across any false stories about her being a shitty person. A good PR firm will actively seek out the organic negative comments and videos and then find ways to shine a spotlight on them, find ways to get the algorithms to pick them up, and just get people talking about whatever that thing is that the target doesn't want people talking about. Maybe you remember a few months ago there was an indictment of foreign actors who were paying YouTubers (Tim Pool being one of the biggest ones) without their knowledge, basically as a reward for having the anti-Ukraine or anti-woke opinions that the foreign actors wanted to boost. That's what I believe people like Melissa Nathan are paid to do. They go to forums and comment sections and find the actual people who are already aligned with or telling the narrative they want told, and then they use money and other tools to get those actual people's posts and comments to be seen by more people and more influencers with the hope that the chosen narrative goes viral. At the same time they're using techniques to bury anything that doesn't align with the chosen narrative. If they went around spreading made-up stories about Lively (for example, a made-up story about how she was unfaithful) then I would completely understand filing a lawsuit. But true stories that aren't violating her privacy? I'm sorry but as a professional and as a celebrity, that's always been fair game. You reap what you sow, and if you're a terror on the set or to waiters or to the "little people" in your life, I don't have a shred of sympathy for you when people find out about it. (James Corden and Ellen Degeneres both come to mind). On the flip side, we're being told Baldoni did seriously unprofessional and creepy shit. But instead of coming from multiple sources, it sure seems like we basically need to take Lively's word for it. I think Johnny Depp has a lot of demons and is definitely not a good person nor someone deserving of sympathy or praise, but he was smart to hire a good PR firm. Should I assume Baldoni is as fucked up as Depp just because he also felt like he needed a strong PR team? Nah, I won't do that. They're scummy, hired guns, but what else could he do when he was dealing with that kind of clout being weaponized against him at a time when he thought his directorial career should be taking off? If Lively can prove he's a sex pest in a court of law, he deserves to lose. But if not, I hope he wins a big award.
  3. What kind of meals would you have, how often, and what were the portions if you don't mind me inquiring?
  4. It's hard to know what's being amplified by Nathan and what's organic at this point. I'd imagine both sides are capable of almost anything that's been done before.
  5. There's proof that Baldoni hired that firm as a proactive measure back in 2024, but I don't know if they're still involved or responsible for the current wave of PR. Melissa Nathan (PR firm) is part of his lawsuit against Lively and Reynolds though so I would assume they're still on good terms with one another.
  6. I also loved the coffee shop sketch and the God cartoon. "straight to hell" lol
  7. There have been a lot of momentum swings in this PR battle. I am still waiting for all the evidence to come out but so far I'm pretty comfortable saying that Lively is not a good person. Whether she was a victim, I don't yet know.
  8. Now there's a Candace Owens video?
  9. Yes, and I would have been much more understanding if that was public knowledge at the time he was being called "Big Drops"
  10. I didn't think of his hands as good until his last season with Texas
  11. Kelce is the next Ryan Reynolds
  12. I could do without their neckties though
  13. Basically everything you can think of
  14. The kind of calculating, detail oriented person she comes across as casts the Plantation story in a totally new light. There's a zero percent chance she didn't research her own fucking wedding venue. https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-culture-news/ryan-reynolds-blake-lively-apologize-plantation-themed-wedding-n1235770
  15. What do semaglutidians do at holiday and football watch parties where the food and booze is plentiful? Is it like being a eunuch at a brothel?
  16. Commanders are folding quicker than Colleen Hoover
  17. Michael Moore has entered the chat... https://www.indiewire.com/news/general-news/michael-moore-teases-new-doc-lively-baldoni-legal-dispute-1235088146/
  18. I hate Buc-ee's CR incoming Fuck their overrated snacks, too
  19. Johntay Cook talk not going away
  20. I also got to thinking about the parallels with the Duke Lacrosse scandal. The only difference is this is a woke actor with a feminism podcast.
  21. I think he will probably come out of this okay, but his wife is going to look pretty bad.
  22. If you read more than teen fiction you'd understand the power dynamic that led Hoover to bend the knee to the clearly more powerful celebrity. Remember not that long ago you were trying to argue that Hoover was somehow on equal footing with Lively?
