Quote from: Biggie Smiles on September 20, 2024, 12:51:44 PMSame here. I would never take the word of a music artist, actor, sports star etc when it comes to policies. Even if they happen to be supporting trump.

Kid rock supports trump as does 50 cent. Both are artists I enjoy but fuck if I'd make a decision based on their endorsement. they are signers. If they want to provide me with advice on music, which recording studios are higher quality than others and who to avoid in the industry I'm all ears. Anything else? It's taken with a grain of salt at best
That is how I see those folks too. Stick to music.

I'm pretty sure this is a subject that's been touched on in this forum before, but it bears revisiting. Each and every one of us has our own unique set of requirements of what needs to happen in order that we flourish. Yes, there is some overlap with each other, but there are also those instances which fall outside of the Venn diagram overlap; those areas where one of us wants, maybe even deserves something that is useless to the majority of other posters here, never mind the wider world.

If you take the time to understand that much, along with what your own requirements are, a truth begins to emerge. Namely, that only you can understand what is right for you, along with how much you are prepared to do without while still keeping yourself whole. It's more or less at that point that you also realise the value of any endorsement made by anyone else is effectively nil, especially when it's a someone who you've never met and who therefore has no idea of what your requirements are, or (as it is in Taylor Swift's case) has fuck all interest in finding any of that out.

I hear any endorsement, my immediate "go-to" is "ohh, that's nice". This goes for anyone here too, and I would not be in the slightest bit offended to have it applied to me should I ever be caught endorsing anything or anyone. Because I'm not you, I'm me. I know what's right for Me, I've taken the time to check out the options and I have a pretty good idea. I may give you an argument as to why I think a particular choice is worthy of consideration, but at the end of the day the onus is on each and every one of you to do your own due diligence to determine if the pros and cons I've identified apply to you. Accepting mine or anyone else's endorsement... of anything... is you handing your self agency off to an outsourced third party who by necessity has their first allegiance other than you.

That is just the way it is and if you think it through enough, you will come to the exact same conclusion. From Kid Rock to Ugly Kid J , they none of them can boast the level of devotion to your own interests as you can, therefore any endorsement they make must be at the very least subjected to a sniff test first.

That said, I endorse this message. Get the word out to the people; the sooner that they get to choosing their own future in lieu of letting some random Taylor Swift dictate it to them, the better.

Quote from: hard Я on September 20, 2024, 12:19:49 PMNot me. Taylor Swift never interested me, I never thought her overly attractive and in a head to head listenability comparison between her entire catalog and the average porno soundtrack, the porno would win hands down.

So she's going to need something else to convince me that her opinion on who should be running the country is valid. I would suggest a compelling argument, only she doesn't have one.

Quote from: Lokmar on September 19, 2024, 08:57:23 PMI'm not convinced. I bet Heff didnt have to drug anyone. Hoebags knew they were showing up for a pussy stretching when they walked into the Playboy Mansion and in fact, they thought it would lead to payday!!!!
