Most people are equally confused about what left-right means. She means she’s on the “left” side of the social issues “culture war” but also socialists are supposed to be “left”, so she’s a capitalist socialist. Jordan Peterson calls that a Cultural Marxist.

She has admitted to using meth before

lol, “the US can’t say anything about Tiennamen Square because Jan 6” attack is pretty fucking weak considering there wasn’t a “capitol crackdown.” If there had been even half as strong of a response as was actually warranted, they would be having a field day, but given that literally nobody was even arrested that day, even trying to make hay of the “crackdown” is pretty lol.

So some random celebrity turned out not to be all the things people wanted to project on them and is instead just another dumb human who happens to be good at one particular thing?

Are those permanent? Dear god if so.

I doubt it. I suspect they’re drawn on, but she def has some “unfortunate” tattoos. I view face tats (if not a Maori) as one of the few things in the “actually never a good idea” category. I knew a guy who had full sleeve and chest tats in grad school. He would put on a collared shirt and give talks, np, and eventually got a job as a comp sci prof.

Grimes doesn’t need grad school as a back up. I think she’ll be fine.

She was a talented and successful musician before Musk. You’re probably right that she has some tough years ahead (don’t we all?) but it’s not because of her tattoos.
