Ariana Grande shares speech to fans following announcement of her public hiatus:
“The announcement is not a reactive or impulsive thing. It’s a plan that I quietly made a long time ago. It’s a decision that was made from a thoughtful and empowered place.”
Variety rates 'petal' 92/100
'Petal is not an easy or obvious career move — it’s probably the biggest musical departure of her career, but it’s also her most musically and lyrically accomplished album. […] Eight albums into her discography, Ariana Grande continues to surprise.'
Since you all want to be an asshole to Ariana; Sadie Sink is Jean Grey in Spider-Man, MJ says she has no memory of Peter and doesn’t love him back, and Miles Morales is teased after the end credits. And I’m not even kidding.
Neurotypicals: Friday feels like a reward.
ADHDers: Friday feels like I survived 5 days of pretending to function, and now I’ve got 48 hours to recover before I have to do it all over again on Monday.
Dear gay man, I hope you find someone who chooses you out loud and in quiet moments who loves you fully, even on your hardest days, flaws and all, whether you’re there or not, and always with honesty.
And whatever you’re going through right now… it won’t last forever.
