    The vitriolic response to Harry and Meghan's decision to back out of public life- an example of outrage culture?  Not the most important news on earth, but I think they deserve to have the life they want and I would say the hyperbolic reaction to that is outrage culture.  What'cha think?


    I've never gave 2 shits about the royal family or anything they do.

    What I find hysterical is that a newspaper dedicated 17 pages SEVENTEEN PAGES, to them.  

    I just don't get it?  Let them do their own thing, dear lord.  God forbid someone doesn't enjoy the spotlight...

    I guess Canada is to blame. They spent New Year’s with us, only a few kilometres from where I live, and decided to chuck it all ;)

    I don’t blame them - there’s no way I’d go back to the hellish frenzy that is the British media.

    100%. as someone online pointed out, they are protecting themselves from suffering the same fate as his mother. good for them.

  • so i was perusing twitter trending topics again (my mistake) and found Alec Baldwin trending. so I clicked on it, thinking he did something to his daughter again. nope. 

    an instagram post, ONE INSTAGRAM POST, claiming his wife has been "faking being spanish" went viral and now all the right leaning media are latching onto it as if it were true, and not only that, that it fucking matters. 

    that's really what gets me. that people think stuff like this is something to actually be mad about.

    I’m still pissed Jill Biden calls herself a doctor.  I will probably rage on this for a year or two.
