what the fuck.

im a new watcher and im loving the show. i have my issues with it, (like why toni cant stop being self absorbed and appreciate the good man she has). but besides that, wtf are william and joan doing? trying to a form a relationship out of the blue all because DONNA planted this “you love joan” seed in williams head due to her lowkey being insecure and unable to understand that men and women CAN form bestfriend/siblinglike relationships. this story is so ew i would fast forward through the episodes but im sticking through this crap for the sake of watching everyone elses storylines. ive never once been able to see william and joan together. and theyve never given us signs that they were remotely into eachother minus williams perverted comments and obsession with lesbian women. i cannot wait for this ship to tank like the rest of joans relationships 🥴

so bey just released one of her leaked tracks donk. for some reason i kept thinking of ari and i really think she would sound delicious on this type of sound. maybe not ari now, but positions ari? idk this is just a thought that appeared in my head and i wanted to see if anyone shared the same thoughts!

ive been a player since 2016. a little before that but ive had my main since then. my inventory is basically a bunch offsale stuff i think lol. but not only has the game become even more obsessed with mtx.. the social scene changed for the worst too omg. back then you literally could just join a scene and chat it up with anyone, friend requests left and right, friend groups formed like easy, “families” formed with lore and drama all types of fun chaos. my friends list used to have LOADS of people online and now quite literally every
single one of them has been dead for months.. but the community was fun back then! the game was fun! now its a mannequin fest, nobody wants to talk to anyone just stand and pose (starstyle im mourning you), a weird influx of men on new accs trying to hit up girls or some ish, everyone already has friends it seems so they just stay cooped up with them (which i guess i understand to extent). not to mention the events are lame now.. i just dont see how anyone plays anymore! i used to play everyday and now ever since covid it just doesnt even feel like the same game i played years ago before our chat bubbles could even have different colors lol. im sure some of what i listed still exists, but how do you even come across things like this when the community has gotten so anti social

not for me at all but im supporting from the sidelines, what do you guys think?

I know there were a few mp clients over the years, but none have lasted. Currently there is GTA Connected & HappinessMP. Connected has a few players that login daily, but its very boring to me so i dont understand why people play there, and nobody plays in hmp. Why do you guys think that is, & will there ever be a client that sticks? I've always wanted to rp in IV and it sucks that it just doesnt exist. If people can have interest in SAMP why dont they have interest in IV?

im rewatching s12 and this season was actually really really good! way better than these recent seasons.. the music wasnt as corny but was more modern and still fit the vibe of the show, the editing still gave og housewives, the camerawork was basic & still being filmed like an old bravo show and NOT a netflix show, the colorgrading was nice and vibrant (i dont think we talk about how old bravo used to give the shows nice color gradings), the cameras were high quality but still slightly low quality.. it was perfect. if they gave us this cast again with the addition of phaedra, sheree, and kim.. (and stopped filming and editing shit as if it was a netflix show) you COULD NOT tell me yall wouldnt be entertained! kandi wouldnt be there because of phaedra but im fine with that even though id like her to be there. phaedra is not doing well with this current cast cause she has nobody to bounce off of like that, she doesnt mesh with anyone at all except porsha and cynthia (of course)

i honestly dont think nene having an ego was the reason she acted the way she did, i think this is a narrative people choose to run with due to her big headed behavior in s6-s7, and partly because some of yall already dont like her. greggs situation, aswell as the marital drama they were dealing with, really fucked with nenes mental.. her hard exterior was clearly crumbling as everything going on with gregg got worse and worse, and as the season goes on you really get to see her deteriorating. now i dont think her lashing out and being ignorant was okay.. and then not to mention her even more ignorant behavior at the reunion which is so easy to write off as nene being her "egotistical self". but that lady was hurting and had no idea how to express it. so, she shut down, point-blank. as someone that has dealt with depression, she was so obviously depressed i think everyones disdain for her doesnt allow them to at least give her this

so i was in the car earlier and i decided to turn on a couple of songs from those albums, mainly my everything. and i just feel like im listening to ari in her element.. like this is the music she needs to be making! even during the yours truly anniversary performances it felt like she was enjoying herself. with es, i feel like she wasted her time there. shes too much of a powerhouse to waste her vocals on synth pop. really anything pre es feels like ari in her element.. i just pray petal sounds more like those first 2 albums or just gives us the mariah vibe like the leaks said. even though, based off the cover and photoshoots.. i dont think it will. idk this was just a random thought i had lol. i think we need to give them more appreciation
