With Meghan, I feel her party over country, conservative stereotype attitude isn't an act. Her temper and overall personality just sucked all the oxygen out of the room. I'm sure no one on the panel or on the crew wanted to deal with her again, especially in studio. She got herself kicked off the show and I don't care what she says to the contrary.

I just read a post on Queerty, of all places, that Joy was getting backlash for telling people to come out at Thanksgiving and "be yourself". 

While I am well aware of the click-bate nature of both Joy's remark and Queerty's article, I take exception when people are critical because an off hand comment broadcast to millions does not reflect their individual experience.  Most of the comments were about how Joy didn't anticipate the negative responses that some people have when they come out.  But, that is not a valid argument against the need to be true to yourself, no matter what. I think this is such an irresponsible post to be made on a gay website, which should promote coming out and being authentic. 

The NY Times had an article on the importance of "Friendsgiving" for members of the LGBTQ community who feel alienated from their family of origin and we should celebrate that type of promotion of the need to live authentically, rather than highlight those who choose to maintain relations with people who do not support the community.

Coming out is a very individualized experience. I first did it 8 years ago when I told my mother and it was quite a relief that get that out. Last week I told several family members and announced it on social media which was something that I thought I would never do, but it worked out well because everyone was accepting. How I see it is if people don't accept your coming out and cut you off then that is a way of seeing the truth about them. If you really love and care about somebody you don't cut them off for being gay. Knowing who is truly in your corner in important and even hearing bad reactions is conducive to growth.

    • The way this show handled Nikolas' shooting Hayden, Austin's murder, the long slow delay to getting rid of Cyrus, etc. we're likely to have it revealed in a year when Nina is 3 weeks away from leaving and has had minimal airtime.
    • Interesting. I love my Roku.  No, I don't know. Who? I mean Disney def does. I would think a number of parties have stocks.
    • Is he still spamming demands that they hire the campy chick from The Haves and Have Nots? Or whichever show it was. I don't think it's an either/or. I happen to think Dana, Dani, Eva, Nicole, Kat, etc. are all great. Certain folks aren't going to be some posters' favorites and that's fair enough. But I would argue most of those characters above (and several others) have caught on with a lot of the online audience. I've even warmed up to Martin!
    • We get it, you don't like this show or the actors. You've said that over and over again, Mr. Vanguard America/VDARE.
    • Lol at the WSB hot guy asking Joss if she was okay with betraying her friends.  Of course she is! Chase coming in hot at Dante was a choice. It's also quite hypocritical since Chase is lying to him about Dante's own child and making Lulu the bad guy.  Talk to the grown woman yourself Chase.  Don't make Dante do it. Lulu and Laura had some great scenes. The Rocco/Danny party is obvious an anvil for something happening and probably the Gio secret coming out. The Willow/Drew/Nina scenes were kind of anti-climatic?  I get why Nina chose this path as the way to get rid of Drew, but will anyone ever find out Drew was sleeping with Nina?  
    • I was reading the NYT article on Roku's purchase of FrndlyTV. As anyone who has read my posting knows, I think re-airing old soaps is an imprudent idea. However, I will admit that if large media companies are looking for more streaming content.  And, if advances in AI continue to make the digitization process faster and cheaper.  Those of you who want the owners of the IP to release anything in their vaults may have reason to be hopeful.  Because the makers of TV's want to get into streaming in order to encourage young people to get back in the habit of updating their TV devices every few years.  And, Roku's plan is market exclusive content, that you have to buy a Roku device to view.  And you-know-who has a ton of content to sell.
    • This was  the messiest hour of television I’ve seen since Kenya Moore asked “who is this hoe?”
    • details of the current Health Secretary RFK Jr's insane beliefs - Doesn't believe that germs cause illness; suggests HIV doesn't cause AIDS; suggests antidepressants are behind mass shootings; believes that vaccines are harmful; suggests chemicals in water are changing children's gender identities... and is quick to promote supplements to prevent and treat diseases, such as recently recommending vitamin A for measles and falsely claiming children who die from the viral infection are malnourished. https://arstechnica.com/health/2025/04/rfk-jr-s-anti-vaccine-stance-is-rooted-in-a-disbelief-in-germ-theory/

      I missed the reference at the time, but those DAYS writers really like jokey character names.
