Shout out to Natalie accurately predicting the rise of "backrooms" horror subgenre. Empty commercial spaces really are as haunting as she describes

And so Gigi-Antoinette said to the masses "If they have no clean drinking water, let them drink Mountain Dew".

I just realised that the Tabby voice isn't hugely purposeful and is mostly caused by fake fangs...

You just accidentally destroyed the argument of "if you on welfare why did you get your nails done?" It's a taste. A small favor. It's staged 'opulence' and an escape. I grew up food insecure and neglected. But I also had my nails done once after my Mom lost her job. It was her one moment of escape in a spiral the eventually led to us being homeless. She told me, "We can't pawn everything, because I need to look like I'm not poor when I go for a job. It matters to some people what you look like" So we pawned almost everything, and sold the furniture instead.

Opulence has really drowned in the cancellation debacle. Can we take a minute to appreciate what a true piece of mastery this really is?

"Why does Donald Trump’s apartment look like Liberace married a Turkmenistani dictator and moved into a Cheesecake Factory?" boy I sure love shrieking with laughter alone in my apartment and making my neighbors wonder what kind of insane person lives next door. Thanx Natalie

To quote Oscar Wilde "America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between."

I saw this working in a hotel.<br>The super wealthy treated us coldly but well, and tipped well.<br>The poor who were there for special events were grateful, even if they didnt tip.<br>The middle class were monsters. Demanded, screamed, tried to get you fired for any perceived slight.

The irony that the framing device of this video is Natalie playing someone who's about to be beheaded by a bloodthirsty mob, and people cancelled her in a bloodthirsty online mob as a result of three seconds of this video
