Interesting… You’re actually proving my point. You brought up my 55K followers because you understand that having a platform comes with influence, yet you expect men with millions of followers to be exempt from criticism over a public choice.
That is contradictory. I never said they weren’t allowed to attend. I said their choice deserves criticism, which I’m free to express just as they were free to go.
Parasocialism is also being thrown around far too loosely because people watched a few TikToks and now use the word to dismiss any criticism of a celebrity.
Having an opinion about a public figure’s public actions is not parasocial.
Feeling the need to protect grown men from reasonable criticism is far closer to it.
I hate when people at work ask you what books you are reading for professional development. I am reading books to counteract the effects of being professionally developed. I am reading books that bring me back to being human.
Oh please read this 💜
“That’s the part the Grammys should be mourning.
Because they had something extraordinarily rare: one of the biggest acts in the world genuinely valued their recognition.
And they squandered it.
Year after year, BTS showed up. Performed. Smiled. Brought the audience. Generated the headlines. Treated the nomination like an honor. Allowed the Grammy to remain positioned as something worth chasing.
Until eventually the chase became more embarrassing for the institution dangling the prize than for the artists who hadn’t received it.
And now, after BTS finally stopped running, the Grammys want to explain that they’ve created MORE opportunities for recognition?
Baby, the opportunity expired.
You had seven global superstars standing at your door believing what was inside mattered.
You kept them waiting so long they built something bigger outside.”

No one wants a city on Mars. Nobody wants AI in every app. Nobody wants a robot butler. Nobody wants data centers everywhere. Nobody wants flying cars or humanoid robots. We want clean water, we want the bees to survive, and we want a habitable planet.
