After working my first shift at the new gig, I just want to say it was nice spending my days chatting with y'all. I am working 12 hour shifts and I am running around and not really online that much and therefore will not get to do our daily chats.

Sucks that you're gonna have to quit. You seemed so excited for the job.

I liked Gaga much more before the cloying to these award shows for validation. She has real hits and is a true star who got there by being subversive and different and now she's just playing to the disgusting old men who vote for these terrible Grammy and Oscar awards. It truly bums me out to see her feel or act like she's made it to some higher level by making a movie and singing with Bradley Cooper, who didn't even make music or sing before this.
She was a star in her own right, in a way that not many others get to be, but she makes a remake of a remake about a man picking her to be one and I'm supposed to think that's good for her?

No. Not into it.
Please tell me how you have come to know the intimate details of the motivation behind Lady Gaga's career choices.

I have eyes.
Do you not realize that these award shows are like 90% politicking and campaigning? It's not like the Oscars and Grammys survey the entire field and say "oh yeah, Lady Gaga definitely did the best original song this year. No doubt about it." Someone tried really hard to make sure that would be the case, hence, it was her motivation. This is trivially obvious, so when she gets up there and acts like she's surprised she was able to accomplish this, it's disingenuous to me on multiple levels.
That's not even to say that Beyonce could also easily do this if she felt like it, and it's truly unnecessary to compare the two in the first place.

But why do you care? She set a goal and accomplished it. She's allowed to be proud.
Also... look at Glenn Close, Amy Adams, Robert Redford, Roger Deakins, Martin Scorsese, and countless other deserving artists who've never won or took decades to win. You can play the game right and still not get recognized. Getting that trophy is a big deal regardless of the behind-the-scenes nonsense.

as some of my FB friends will know, my best friend got in a car accident almost 3 weeks ago. he had severe brain damage and spent the last couple weeks in a coma. yesterday was his final day with us. he was my festival buddy, my roommate, and my brother from another mother.
here's a gofundme if any of you feel so inclined. thank you

On this point, Boots Riley had a good thread/explanation for why Sorry to Bother You wasn't getting a ton of awards love. It was really interesting and enlightening.

I had a similar situation with a friend/co-worker a few years ago. He was on a unmotorized scooter showing his son something and fell on the back of his head. He wasn't wearing a helmet because he was just on it for a minute. He stayed in a coma for a few weeks and actually showed some signs of improvement. Suddenly, everything came crashing down within a few hours one afternoon. It's hard time to see someone you're close to who is also your age go through something like that.

crazy how quickly things can change
For sure. They had gone so far as to start discussing after the coma with his wife and rough outlines of rehab/recovery. We were all shocked when the downturn came. We all thought he was going to make it out of the woods.

yea there were some weird times during this where some of his "numbers" got better but he wasn't really getting any better. some people took it down the positive road more than they should have. my gf is a nurse so she was awesome in being there to ask questions for me and get real answers from the dr/nurses.
