what an obtuse thing for her to say though. like even if she didn't buy her kids their way into the school, she can still pay for it out of pocket. what is she gonna do, make her kids get a part time job at Domino's? when you're that rich, literally everything you do is of privilege.

i'm pretty sure there was a brief mention of the kendrick drake beef in last months pop culture video, but i'm surprised it wasn't mentioned in this month at all bc that's when it blew up.

The world of Kpop is currently having a very public court case between the biggest conglomerate in the industry, and the CEO of one of their labels. You’d think the super big guy is winning, but no, for the first time in history of Kpop courts, the court is siding with the smaller label. That was the decision late in May, but there are still more decisions coming. Don’t get your hopes up for a David vs Goliath story, they are all horrible people there, she (the CEO of Ador, the small label) just seems to be smarter than everyone else there.

Yea and that there was the bombings that killed palestinian refugees the same day of the met. Hence why thousands of people protested on the streets outside of the met and kickstarted the blockout

the qualifying for the monaco gp may as well have determined who won the race. still a deserved win for charles though, him being mentioned in a video alongside twice and aespa out of all people is kinda surreal to me. not to mention said video has spinning nemo as the intro. other stuff i remember: stray kids and lewis hamilton at the met gala since i mentioned kpop and f1, min hee jin winning against hybe (which i don't know how to feel about that just yet) and FUCK THE EBU (HAIIIIII :3)

5:25 Nemo, representing Switzerland, is the first non binary performer to win Eurovision. This is also Switzerland's second win since Celine Dion in 1988, 36 years ago. Meanwhile, fan favourite Joost Klein for The Nethlands is disqualified from the finals. The official reason is because of "unlawful threats" to the contests camera woman, but there is reports saying that she was harassing him by recording him backstage despite Joost asking her to stop.
