I love that Carrie Fisher had a fridge filled with chocolate bars on set.

I see this as proof that the film industry is cruel to both women and men regarding diet and appearance; and like so other incredible and rare people, Carrie was having NONE of their bullshit and was actively aiding people live a healthier happier life. Yes, the occasional chocolate bar is healthy because it allows us to fucking live, and Carrie knew damn well how to live.

“My husband had a sudden heart attack a few months ago. It was just a few blocks from here. They called me in to identify his body and then just let me walk right out onto 7th Avenue. I felt so lost. My friends were wonderful and supportive but eventually everyone moves on with their lives. I don’t have children. And I’m not a workaholic. So I was left with this intense loneliness and void. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t sleep. Then one day I started researching dogs that are good for grief and depression. And ‘poodle’ kept popping up. But when I went to the rescue fair, all the poodles were gone. There was this one old dog in the back that nobody was looking at. She was skin and bones. She was trembling and scared and mucus was running out of her eyes. She seemed so fragile. She reminded me of myself. I named her Grace because I think my husband sent her to me. She’s my first dog. She’s been pure joy. We spend all our time together. She’s gained her weight back. She comes with me to therapy. We’re getting better together.”

“The bridge to Rikers Island is called the Bridge of Pain. You’re on this bus. You see the city behind you. And in front of you, you see nothing but four walls. I was sent there for a year when I was nineteen years old. My friends and I got caught stealing copper pipes from a construction site. All of us grew up together. I thought they had my back. But none of them came to see me in prison. I had zero visits. Nobody put money in my account. So I haven’t talked to any of those guys since I got out. I work two jobs now. I stay out of trouble. I’m trying not to be a negative person anymore. I still have anger problems. I think it’s because there was so much yelling and violence in my house growing up. But whenever I feel the anger coming on, I just close my eyes and rub my ears. My baby brothers used to rub my ears when I was growing up. When things got bad in the house– it always used to calm me down.”

Hey Haven, I understand you may not want to give “you know who” much thought, but I’d love to hear your opinion on Getaway Car, you’re so eloquent and I can’t process the depth of meanness of that song directed at a very decent, lovely person.

Hey there,

This is one of those messages that I argue with myself overanswering for the reason you mention at the beginning, because it has certaineffects that I am not in the mood for, such as seeing any nonsense responses inmy activity feed.

I am answering it not because of her, but because ofhim.  

We must begin by assuming two things: 1)the song is indeedabout him and 2)it is a factual representation of their time together.

Guided by those two assumptions, I will say that it leavesme in a cocktail of permanently cemented disgust and scratching-my-head bewilderment.

I don’t want to spend a lot of time on this, so I am justgoing to mention some highlights that are kind of scattered.

  • She is flat out saying it was a rebound relationship for her,that she didn’t “mean it” and that she lied to him.
  • She is essentially branding him as a fool for not knowingthat.
  • She positions herself as being the one in power and endingthe relationship, which is extremely important as it relates to the Main Issuebelow.
  • Does she ever say anything about an ex that isn’t sourgrapes?

Let’s think about the things she doesn’t say, shall we?

  • She doesn’t say she genuinely cared about him.  At all. On any level, for any amount of time.
  • She doesn’t say anything that talks about who he is (kind,affectionate, etc.).
  • She doesn’t refute that he was honestly invested in the relationship.

Let’s be real here - she doesn’t have anything positive to say about Tom Hiddleston?  Really?  Tom Hiddleston, who brings hot soup to cold reporters on the red carpet?  Tom Hiddleston, who is universally hailed by his colleagues as being the nicest guy?  Tom Hiddleston, who always seems to be patient and kind and respectful?  Tom Hiddleston, who has never said anything remotely negative about her?  Tom Hiddleston, who gets mad at himself if he isn’t authentic in interviews?  Tom Hiddleston, Captain Pureheart? Seriously?  That Tom Hiddleston?  Talk about hard to process.  

As if those things aren’t enough on their own, the Main Issuefor me is that she does not say that he was duplicitous and only using her forselfish reasons (I’m not interpreting the “turned you in” line as indicative ofthat).  Which is totally against thepublic narrative that she allowed and has not once contradicted that he wasjust a fame whore.

Let that sink in for a minute.

Because the idea of “Oh, poor me, this big nasty guy wasusing me to get famous!” is entirely different from “You were a rebound, I didn’tmean it, I left you, how could you think it was anything real!”

Entirely different.

In the beginning, she was the victim.

Currently? 

She’s trying to pass herself off as the victor, but it’s in a weird way that smacks of victim blaming.

There is something sick and unhealthy about the biggerpicture of this whole thing that is very unsettling, not the least of which isthat people who support her will still do so without recognizing that a matureperson does not publicly flaunt having lied to someone and used them.  

And she is talking about a man who said “Of course it wasreal.” and “Tayloris an amazing woman. She’s generous and kind and lovely, and we had the besttime.”

Now let that sink in.

So, little gray face, I guess maybe don’t worry about processing it.  He was a decent, lovely person in the beginning.  He is a decent, lovely person currently.  He hasn’t let this one short period of his life change that.  He doesn’t need a getaway car.

And this!!! is what has been driving me nuts all day! How in the hell do you decide you are going to sit down and do this to somebody??And then you invite a clutch of your “loyal fans” to a “secret listening party”, where you all sit around and celebrate and laud her for doing this to him??..this is utterly reprehensible. 

Accurate posts are probably very depressingly accurate.

Sigh.

I so want him to find someone who’s worthy of him.

This is exactly why I don’t like Taylor Swift. She gets angry when people point out that she has made her career off of embarrassing her ex’s and playing the victim, yet she continues to further her career by continuing to do the same damn thing. It’s a tired act, find a new one.

Fuck anyone who tells you to kill yourself. They are a piece of shit and a coward if they say that to you. And most importantly, don't listen to them. Your life is never meaningless. You are loved and wanted.
