@Jepsonio @_garrettcharles NYC has been her primary residence for years, it makes complete sense

@_garrettcharles Idk MSG is pretty iconic. Would make more sense if either was a New Yorker

@Dusterz @_garrettcharles guarantee she will not. the whole point of msg is the privacy it allows

@_garrettcharles She is like guaranteed filming it to sell to the fans

@Booisnoob1 @LARVAMOLT @spinbackmecca “controlled selective breeding of human populations” so doesn’t have to be the govt per se but i think you can probably guess which institution has historically been responsible for implementing eugenicist policies. dipshit
English
@daylightsglow @LARVAMOLT @spinbackmecca No it isn’t. Nowhere in any dictionary is Eugenics explicitly defined as something only a government can do. “Ppl just do not know what they’re talking about at all”. Are you ppl?
English
@zampy77 and that happened BEFORE taylor, jack, and st vincent were given the deja vu credit. it was damage control by the label to avoid any similar issues/bad press AFTER the misery business/good 4 u incident. i swear to fucking god this is my roman empire lol you’re all so loud&wrong
English
@LARVAMOLT @spinbackmecca that’s the only way it becomes eugenics by its definition, ppl just do not know what they’re talking about at all lol
English
@spinbackmecca Like i don't even care if they can do a test and see if it's gonna be gay or trans. You can get an abortion for any reason. I Don't Care. There is no 'gotcha' that will change my mind.
The ONLY WAY it becomes eugenics, to me, is if the government, or any force, is involved.

@sbaprolife the world would be a better place if you were aborted and i mean that genuinely

This is so sad and awful. We CAN'T stand silently by.
Research shows 99% of people with Down syndrome are happy with their lives, and their families love them.
Families deserve truthful information & support. People with Down syndrome deserve to live. They should never be targets for discrimination, inside the womb or out. Period.

This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21. The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided. I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley. She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained. Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000. When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed. Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism): 50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective. I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life. The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk. We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21. This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast. You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change. To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward. As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice. It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome. Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️

Pro lifers genuinely believe that you should be forced to carry and give birth to a disabled child that will need constant care their whole lives while they continue to support the party that vows to cut funding for every program that would help those individuals the most

as americans, we live in a culture that rewards sociopathy and i need us to stop pretending otherwise. we exist in a cruel, domination centered hierarchal society that bleeds into every single persons psyche at the unconscious level. even so called “good people” perpetuate it.
English
@Current93VEVO @argos611 i think the humor behind someone gleefully climbing a mountain in stilettos is pretty clear to anyone looking at it…again my only point is that she has a case and i think it’s strange how many people will dick ride for a corporation regardless of how virtuous they may seem
English
@daylightsglow @argos611 also also: "humorous intent" afaik requires it to have a clear and free-standing humour to it. IANAL but I don't think "it's like the Patagonia logo but it says something close to Patagonia instead" passes the test (see The North Face Apparel vs. Winkelmann et al. 2010)
English
@Current93VEVO @argos611 i get their end of it and that they have to defend the trademark to keep it, i just don’t think it’s open-and-shut like ppl say. you might confuse it with a real patagonia logo from a glance/at a distance but i think it’s highly unlikely a consumer actually buying a product would
English
@daylightsglow @argos611 there's other factors, like they allegedly had a prestanding agreement that Pattie wouldn't encroach on their trademark, or that they're suing for $0 in real damages and $1 in punitive, pretty much "this is us showing we care about protecting our trademark so we don't lose it"
English
@LiviaBellona @argos611 i figured i was missing something since it seems like such a glaringly obvious example of parody lol so thank u…but does she not still have a case just based on the fact that no reasonable person would actually confuse this for the original logo? i thought that was the point
English
@daylightsglow @argos611 Copyright law and trademark law are somewhat different. Fair use generally doesn't protect trademark infringement.
English
@Current93VEVO @argos611 but she’s not using their branding, she’s using a design based on their logo that clearly transforms it with humorous intent, and enough so that no reasonable person would actually confuse it for the original. i don’t see how that isn’t a cut and cry example of “parody”
English
@daylightsglow @argos611 parody is protected, so like if she wanted to make a fake commercial making fun of Patagonia she could use their branding in that; idk if parody covers "making and selling a product using their branding in a product/service their trademark has domain over"
English
@AriDrennen it’s the way she has more courage and integrity than most men could ever dream of while also being supermodel gorgeous… god bless u Vivian

@_RandomJ_ this is also literally why the taylor’s versions exist, the whole point was that she writes all her songs and thus has publishing rights to her entire catalog, regardless of who owns the masters. george michael’s estate could’ve denied her request to interpolate if they wanted to
English
This is not how any of this works.
When you interpolate a song, you HAVE to credit the writers of it, because the interpolation is a contribution to the song — however small. Taylor Swift didn’t credit George Michael to be nice. She credited him to avoid a potential lawsuit.
English
@papaGemini @JoeyBrascic @argos611 this is literally what lawyers are for… to make that argument on her behalf as trained professionals/experts in the area of law they practice. the client trying to make her own case to a hostile social media audience could obviously have a negative effect on proceedings
English
@JoeyBrascic @argos611 Everyone keeps say “parody law” except Pattie. If he was saying that then maybe but his whole things is “they’re trying to silence queer people” so why should we fight it’s parody when he’s not even doing that.
