The still used for the cover of this video is incredibly cute and made me laugh.
Apropos a nothing but these extravagant oligarch weddings always seem so sad and performative to me. I remember some rich Indian guy inviting every celebrity known to man to his wedding and all of them flew in to Mumbai and posted a bunch of pictures of thems…

Apropos a nothing but these extravagant oligarch weddings always seem so sad and performative to me. I remember some rich Indian guy inviting every celebrity known to man to his wedding and all of them flew in to Mumbai and posted a bunch of pictures of themselves in traditional garb in their socials with captions wishing him and his wife a happy marriage and it was quite apparent he never even met 80% of these people. I don’t think people who are THAT rich have many real friends or normal human connections. Everything is transactional. Everything is a spectacle. What a miserable existence.
THIS. Like, goody for you, you don't have any real friends so all you celebrities just invite other people from your and adjacent industries to fill the seats? Sounds like such a wonderful, personal memory to look back on in your last days, surrounded by, what, jewels and silence, with just the soft beeping and humming of the machines keeping you alive because you are far too special and important to die before your obscene wealth funds the scientific advances necessary to effectively freeze and resurrect you, your family have all deserted you, and your remaining staff are fine keeping the sad gravy train going as long as your money holds out? Imma keep my 15-attendee mountaintop wedding, but you do you. Maybe this is cope, as Tim would say, but at least from the outside, their lives DO look super depressing, like all the empty-headed costumed Capitol people in the Hunger Games. Circuses, indeed.
Re: cover stills, since it's in the "independent media ecosystem" #btc / pro-democracy coalition and therefore fam, Crooked is KILLING me with the PSA audio-only podcast covers, for MONTHS now. SO often, weird pictures of Trump and/or Elon looking disgusting and/or trying to be cool, like the "putting sunglasses on"/mugshot/creepy banner pics. Like, gimme some clouds or a sunset or one of y'all's faces. Gimme staffer of the week. Anything but Trump's giant burnt sienna face making that stupid "o" shape with his stupid mouth. :)
