If you ask me, NYC should stop riding Buffalo’s coat tails by trying to claim Cellino & Barnes for the five boroughs (they’re Buffalo through and through) and lean into the absolute weirdness of NYC originals 800-PAIN-LAW.
How can you not be obsessed with 800-PAIN-LAW?? Their branding tries to look like the MTA’s! Their billboards are weird as fuck! The head guy looks like a Ken doll! A screencap of the 800-PAIN...Seth A Harris, who looks li...
800-PAIN-LAW: Are they in on the joke? I think so, but who can say!
Dial #PAIN
Anyway I gotta start taking pictures of the billboards, whenever I see them I am just… what the fuck.

I mean this is obvious bait but:

A) plenty of men do it, however

B) they often don’t make as much money as women and most importantly

C) their customers are likely to be other men, which I don’t think Andrew Tate would have been into!
“If doing cam work is liberating why isn’t Andrew Tate jerking it for other men?” is a question that I did not expect to answer today but here we are.
For many women getting sexualized by men is unavoidable so monetizing it at least allows you to get something back. Many men — and especially straight men — don’t have that experience, so doing cam work means introducing an unfamiliar objectification into their lives.

Okay so my internet has stopped working but ONLY on my iPhone, which is actually a surprisingly big deal. At one point it was saying "Safari can't connect to iCloud Private Relay" but now it's just... timing out.
I have turned WiFi off and on on the phone. I have restarted the phone and my router. I've turned Private Relay off and on. Any other suggestions? Absolutely losing my mind, esp since my reception sucks in my apartment so I need WiFi to work on my phone.
Also there's clearly *some* kind of internet connection because I can get notifications but then the actual pages etc don't load. Please help, my family is dying.

The thing about our cultural obsession with actors is we are literally putting people whose job it is to lie about their entire selves and emotional landscapes on pedestals and worshiping them
That’s not a knock on actors, it’s a literal description of the whole job: misrepresent who you are and how you feel for money.
Like at least writers and comedians and musicians are (usually) putting forth a perspective that roughly aligns with their own; with actors, who knows

One thing that’s fascinating about Succession is that it’s able to hide the fact that it’s a comedy because it’s about the weirdest people in the world (the rich)
Alexander Skarsgard can give a whole speech about mailing an employee bags of his blood and people are just like “what a compelling drama about power”
It’s just an hour long bone dry satire of billionaires
