Sadly your negative and generalistic narrative dosent apply here, I just have perspective and know what is worth my concern. I think you should probably spend your free time somewhere else because its just getting more and more bizzare that you are chosing to be here if you feel like this. Go do something important, i'm sure you can Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go do something important, i'm sure you can No, I will be doing what I want. What is concerning is the hive mind and ass sucking GagaDaily has become, and how right-leaning it has turned. It's okay though, while trans people are dying, you can watch the Chromatica film It's also nothing negative, you're just so deluded by stan culture to understand. EDIT : What is concerning though is how offended you are by me expressing my opinion and presenting the truth, just to defend your fave. That's the definition of delusional stan culture.

You do you I could not be further away from stan culture, I do have a lot of love for the community here though. Its comendable to be so passionate about this which im grateful for, but your views on what actually counts towards being an ally seem to differ from my own so lets not flog a dead horse here.

If that isn’t happening people will wonder why or why not. To brush it off as a “yay gay” post tells me you probably don’t feel a tremendous amount of threat rn (just speculating from the tone), which is great! Really. But others are definitely not so secure rn. They are getting harassed and having people talking about exterminating them on public platforms. knowing that there are people in the broader culture actively *now* speaking up for them instead of against from their positions of power is a huge deal. It’s made impact before, it can again. Gaga has influence and people know that. It’s not really a matter of her not “owing” someone something, a weirdly American transactional idea lmao it’s that she has power and influence and has flexed it before and let others know that they can feel safe bc she is out publicly stumping. Maybe it sounds weird, but there is some good that can come from talking about the good you’re doing, contrary to popular belief. Spot on. Kinda shocking how 99% of members here can't grasp this simple concept. I like dancin', and ponies.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, too, long for her presence, to see her art, photos, music. It's a gut feeling, she's captivating, she puts on a spell, her art crawls under your skin and it's an overload to the senses and it's a deep connection everytime we get something. She used to be way more comfortable doing that, naturally, sharing her process. She was in a phase of emanating youth, you could see she felt good having that interaction. However, the internet changed A LOT, too much. Youtube didn't have ads, twitter was funnier and not so heavy, Instagram came later but it was just photos. I used to post a lot on Instagram, today I can't even push the button to post a story, it's been months. And it's not a choice, it's a feeling of displacement, that social media doesn't feel like a place where you can comfortably post something. I don't know, it's weird, it has to do with not wanting your image circulating there. Maybe more people feel like this, Instagram became a shopping mall. Twitter became a flood of fancam and memes and discourse and language that is repeated over and over and over and over again, no real connection. It's only understandable she would post only ads, not even her pressing post. She seems to like TikTok though, which I'm still trying to understand, but I guess she establishes a deeper connection with those videos. But my point is why do we engage with her as if she is a folkloric figure, a person with discourse elements attached to her figure, and that we need her to keep pushing that discourse because it's familiar. For me, it feels like she wants her birds to take flight, she's done her share of nurturing, and that left her drug abusing and suicidal. Stefani wanted to kill Gaga. Sometimes I imagine myself if I went somewhere, and got the looks, the phones being held up, the videos, the constant harassing. Imagine someone you don't know saying they love you, imagine someone you don't know asking for a picture and your signature, imagine someone you don't know crying in front you. Now imagine yourself putting your head to your pillow after that and processing that. Fame causes a cognitive overload of information through that interaction and it's something very few people endure in the world. Some like it a lot, it inflates their ego, they think they're the best person alive. That's not her case. She is an extremely intelligent person, she thinks about philosophy of art and talks about it in interviews in a way that no one else of her caliber does. She is an extremely sensitive person, if you are or know sensitive people, you know that their relationship with the world is deep, full of pain and questions about the human nature, what we're here for, what is the world. And we can also observe how sensitive people tend to interpret things their specific way and put their foot down on what they believe. The senses get chaotic on sensitive people, the simple act of pushing a post button becomes an entire existencial question. And in this feeding relationship we have with her, we forget she's a human, under the spotlight, in a world she has strong opinions about, being famous which she also has strong opinions about, making art which she, again, has strong opinions about. When we demand things from her, we do it reading our senses, our feeling of need, of wanting to be fed, so her art can crawl under our skin once again. But on the other side there's a person, healing immense trauma, navigating a weird world only a few get to experience, while being empathetic, kind and with a purpose if doing nothing more than good to people. When she says she "just wants the public to smile", you can see her need of serving. You can observe that through BTW Foundation activity online, you can see that in interviews when she talks about her work and the world. But no one can be a servant 100% of the time, even less when that service is under the spotlight, and even less when they think about that spotlight daily, when they suffer from that spotlight. I can only imagine how it is to have her mind and her life. It must be a life of constant conflict. Can't let that go with just a love reaction. It's a beautiful piece. Really terrific.

Monstermilo 4,607 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 good now the haters can stfu she clearly is trying to heal and recharge, yall have no place to demand what she should be sharing in her life. ppl go through things in silence, and they need time to themselves, you cannot tell them they arent allowed to do that. gaga has always cared about her fans the lgbt community. she has nothing to prove - stop hating on her because sometimes the hate will push someone away and make them share even less.
