Me pulling out this fake movie poster every couple of years like Eliza bragging about her orphanage at the end of Hamilton
Movie poster-style image with black background. Top says in cursive font: A Rose for Emily. Middle has a young woman and old woman in profile each looking at a red rose. Bottom says in book script: And they say romance is dead with red splatter over the last word

Amy's definitive review of The Life of a Showgirl is IN
Text across all three screenshots: Amy’s Version Overall I think I’d give this 3.5/5 opals. It’s pretty but not for every day. The Fate of Ophelia: A fun song, but I know too much about hamlet to not tear it apart. Frankly would have been cooler to have a Shakespearean sonnet rhyme scheme, or more references to ghosts. Also i don’t love the little off beat « the fate of ophelia » part of the song Elizabeth Taylor: this one is fun. Also kinda on the nose re: you’re only as hot as your last hit. This one will grow on people. Opalite: Amy’s favourite. It’s fun. It’s cute. If this was on any other album people would be head over heels for it. Father figure: forever skip. It’s not doing what she thinks it’s doing. I’m not pearl clutching about the « my dick’s bigger » but I just don’t want to listen to it. Eldest Daughter: not as traumatic as I expected it to be. For a track 5 it’s pretty tame and I expect it to grow on me the next time I’m forced to be in charge of something I shouldn’t be. Ruin the Friendship: was this a debut vault track that she added the bridge to in order to make it current? It sounds like debut. Kinda sad, kinda out of place, but I guess it represents grief? Actually Romantic: didn’t need to be as specific as it is to get it’s point across. It’s a shame it’s so catchy because I kinda want to put it in my skip list. It’s one of those annoying songs that people read too much into. Also can we stop caring about MH? Wi$h Li$t: rich girl wants to live a normal white picket fence life. I don’t love it because like « in your life you'll do things Greater than dating the boy on the football team ». But also as someone who never imagined life with a partner or kids etc. I kinda get it. Might be a skip. Also it sounds so much like her song Glitch. Wood: this song needed Jack to help produce it. Sometimes some songs are better not published. Skip. But good for you Taylor have all the fun. CANCELLED!: this is catchy, this is fun, this is going to be …

Hey Bluesky, I need your help again! On the next episode I'll be sharing some stories from Read-it, the version of Reddit for fictional characters only. This fellow needs some judgements. Can you help him out? 💙📚
AITA if I get back at my friend for trash talking my family? Sorry if this is confusing, English is not my first language. I have a friend who is sort of an overgrown class clown (we are both in our early 20s). I have always considered him nothing more than a buffoon, but recently he committed a grave insult against my family. I hold my family in the highest respect, and this friend made a mockery of them in front of others. I think this friend deserves to be punished, but what he did is technically within the bounds of the law. AITA if I take matters into my own hands?

I would like to beg your most absolute of pardons
Screenshot of an opinion article showing Eddie Redmayne playing Richard II. Text: Shakespeare's greatest play? There's only one contender. Forget Hamlet, Lear or Macbeth - the Bard saved his sharpest psychological insights and finest poetry for Richard II.

Apparently, if you ask ChatGPT to tell you a story, it basically spits out the exact same one every time. We read that story and it is... not good.
