It's inevitable

My plan was to not post anything about the massive historical moment currently going on, but I am breaking it because I am PLOTZING over this moment from Vanessa Hudgens’ Instagram live.

When you tweet a video and end it with “maybe I shouldn’t be saying this” that’s normally a sign that you shouldn’t #VanessaHudgens #COVID19 Image

I don’t enjoy her message, obviously, but I am delighted by the ways in which social media is almost too revealing about true thoughts. She RESPECTS the virus. RESPECTS IT.

Listen, I know actors are not their characters, but I’ve always thought that Gabriela was way inferior in talent, personality, and ambition than Sharpay. Also, I think about her matching snakeskin skirt and boots outfit at least once a month. We were all wrong.


Outside of troubled times, I love lurking on sanctimonious parenting, but suddenly everyone is sharing how to create schedules for your kids and how to keep them thriving and learning at home. [As my brother says, his kids don’t care about taking virtual museum tours.] So let’s be real about it:

I have SOOOO much to say about this, but I’ll save it. We have a lot of time.

look I’m not saying I’m mentally taking note of people who for so long have made “social anxiety” part of their brand but are now losing their minds about being away from their usual social gatherings, thus revealing themselves to be frauds, but I’m not NOT doing that either

But really, stay off Twitter. It’s a seductive trap.
