hi! could you please do something related w/ rich!geto please? idk like being childhood besties with him and how their relationship (meaning from bff to lovers) would blossom after he becomes heir of the company,, have a nice one i love your writing <3

Rich bf! Geto

A/N: STOPPPP this is such a cute idea I love it! 😮‍💨💗 also this finally pushed me out my comfort zone since I’m always writing 20 chapter long slow burns instead of writing it in one 🤣

You guys became friends when you were 13-14. Awkward teens who spotted each other on the way to school. Geto saw you shoving 2-3 chicken nuggets in your mouth while running to school. It was hilarious in his eyes. To satisfy his curiosity of you, he offered you a ride on his bike, which you easily agreed to, but in return the raven haired boy started to call you ‘chicken nugget’. And since then you were attached to the hip.

You were Geto’s sweetheart, his dearest friend. The slightly strange but sweet girl who he didn’t miss a chance to hang out with, whether it was sneaking your cowardly ass out of class, or giving you a ride home.

And even as you both grew up, and hit puberty, the affection only grew stronger. But now there were butterflies that would grow when your eyes would meet. Or when he’d catch a glimpse of your cute smile, or when your eyes would land on his broad chest when he pulled you for a hug.

Geto always knew he had feelings for his favourite chicken nugget girl, but he didn’t believe he deserves you.

“Bro what do you mean you don’t deserve her? She wants you too bro, trust me” Gojo would reassure him, but that’s because he didn’t understand. Nobody understood how perfect you were, and how he didn’t want to fall short of being perfect for you.

And so at night, while staring at a picture he took with you from a tacky photo booth, he’d promise to make you his girlfriend that day he graduates and takes over his dad’s company. The day he is rich and powerful enough to give you the world.

And so the raven haired man continued life, knowing his ulterior motive. Mastering his degree, shadowing his father at the firm, making connections.

But he’d also watch you continue life too, slightly different to his. He’d scroll through your Instagram, watching your average life with some average nameless men.

It didn’t affect him though, you could post with as many of these basic, nameless men, but he already knew you were each other’s endgame. Till fate brings you back to him, he’ll wait through your phases.

And one day, fate was delivered.

Geto: hey, sorry to hear about your breakup nugget

Your eyes widened like saucers. It’d been a while since you spoke to your first love, Geto. Sometimes you’d imagine if life would be different if you were brave enough to confess to him. You wish you didn’t simply hold hope to the words he uttered the day he moved away for uni.

‘One day, I’ll come back for you’

His voice was so soft, and his smile so sweet, yet it seemed like a distant dream now.

You cant help but laugh at the nickname he kept for you dearly ever since you were kids.

‘Thanks’ you reply casually. Not expecting his following text.

Geto: I’m back in town soon. You free to meet up doll?

At a rooftop cafe, as the sun set, the newly appointed CEO held your hands dearly, whispered sweet nothings and made confessions of love.

And the rest was history.

It wasn’t long until Geto convinced you to move into his penthouse. Holding your hand is he guided you through the luxurious place.

Placing his chin on your shoulder, “this is your home now doll” he says.

Being the girlfriend of the rich heir Geto was peaceful. You’re his pretty angel that he loves to spoil, he never wants you to be sad or deprived of anything, especially since he’s now a millionaire.

He loves taking you to buy luxurious dresses, but he always wants you to wear it again once you’re home. With a tilt of his head and a sly smile, he’ll shamelessly encourage you to change in front of him, eyes like a hawk as he seats himself on a chair watching you undress, softly muttering dirty thoughts, making you flustered as you change.

Even as he completes paperwork at night, you’re seated on his lap. His large hand caressing your thigh, sometimes slipping his hand underneath your silk night dress to make you blush.

He’ll also occasionally look away from the work to appreciate your sleepy face, smiling before encouraging you to sleep on his lap, nudging your head onto his shoulder, kissing and cooing you enough to fall asleep in his warm muscular arms.

“Goodnight angel”

nepo babies masterlist

rich! yang jeongin x rich! fem! reader . smau series . fluff , ‘enemies’ to lovers , (maybe) angst , mutual pining , slightly suggestive , fast paced(?) , fake dating

yang jeongin is a bad influence—words that fell from your parents lips, almost as a warning. yet despite jeongin's behaviour, the yang family was well respected, and your father would have been foolish to refuse a business partnership with the multi-millionaires. the collaboration led to you attending school with jeongin, who mindlessly trailed after you wearing his infamous smirk as he attempted to pick you apart. phrases meant to send you crying falling from his lips as he slunk an arm over your shoulders, nose grazing your cheek as he muttered every rude word that came to his mind. eventually you graduated, as did jeongin—surprisingly. and as your classmates went into the world, you hoped jeongin would do just the same. you planned on staying in seoul for awhile, having recently gotten a modelling contract with laila magazine. but unfortunately for you, yang jeongin had other plans, ones involving: a yacht, champagne, and a midnight swim.

Idk why we're defending millionaires and billionaires for not atleast donating to Palestine or talking about it

Yes, all those rich people are entitled to their own money and they have families but they literally have influence. They don't control governments but they can influence people and it's easy to influence when you're rich.

Like Taylor Swift for example and I'm not even gonna explain it bc that's how easy she's able to control white women bro 😭😭

And I don't know how much money millionaires or billionaires spend but it must be pretty fucking plenty if they're spending it on gucci or iphones.

Literally the Weeknd donated 2 million and he's not dying. I don't really understand why we're defending celebrities for their ignorance.

"Then you go do it" we are trying our best as NON-MILLIONAIRES?? idk what the fuck yall want us to do bc we're doing all we can like protesting, boycotting, donating, and spreading awareness. And bro, some of us are literally teenagers.

The least those rich people can do is at least spare some for people that are dying but I guess that's how the world works.

And they don't even have to donate that much. It can be like 100,000 or something. They have a lot of people supporting and buying their stuff regardless so it's not like they're gonna die

Yeah they're human and focus on yourself too but being aware is called being human too?? 😭😭😭😭

isnt this whole wilbur thing a huge warning sign against getting too attached to ccs, because we can never truly know them? why are we celebrating a few fans putting /150/ dollars + whatever the commission fee for the artist was into a birthday present for a guy who just.. doesnt know them? its not like merch or supporting a creator, its literally money in the wind. between this and merch dropping like clockwork but sapnap being the only one actually doing content (and hes clearly just doing it for the kick quota.. sorry but the streams are so lackluster), im getting really disillusioned with the dream team. theyre literally just coasted by because of a hyperdedicated fanbase they dont really seem to give a shit about. people talk about how amazing and kind they are but are they really? we dont know. why are we monetarily supporting millionaires its literally just charity but for rich people at this point, they dont provide any value in exchange. i think people should really consider why theyd rather drop ~180 dollars on a billboard for a rando instead of charity or buying something they want or need. sorry idk i just feel fed up with how much time and money and love i poured into these guys and in response were getting nothing. sapnap didnt even bother to denounce the abuser he used to interact with. i could have donated and actually helped someone instead of buying a fucking hoodie i cant even wear to school because id get bullied.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a little wake up call. They are just some guys that stream and make videos. You’d think the last few Situations™ would teach people to simply not put cc’s on pedestals and expect perfection from them. But you must realize that if you’re going to argue against people giving cc’s money, then you need to go all the way back to every single sub and donation they’ve gotten through twitch as well. It’s always been a luxury some choose to do because they get something out of it. They were never forced or tricked into doing it. And I don’t know how the Sapnap billboard was funded, but I donated to the George b-day billboard. Gave up $5 because I thought it was a fun community idea, and it did not impact my ability to donate or buy things I needed. It doesn’t need to be any more complicated than that. It’s not a streamer's fault that you chose to spend money on them instead of donating.

If you’re upset by the lack of content, then entertain yourself with something else. People have been saying that for ages. If you think their intention is to continue promising content and never delivering just to squeeze money out of fans, then leave. I personally don’t believe that.

Dream believes he does owe us content, but we don’t get to decide when it comes. And you don’t have to give them a dime for it.

#vault talks #discourse #sorry if im a little blunt. i dont usually get anons like this lol #and yeah school kids can be mean :( im glad i didnt have to worry about this when i was in high school #if it helps at all. i wear my blindingly neon green dream hoodie out sometimes and no one has cared in the adult world #but anyway. i dont like to entertain regret. one day they will fully retire and that wont take value from anything they made before that #even if youre unsatisfied right now dont let that effect the good times youve had prior #edit: forgot to add: in case anon still sees:#also let’s not pretend sap and wil were ever close lol #geor.ge was the closest to him out of the three and he hasn’t said anything either. and he doesn’t need to. it’s gotta be hard :/#look at poor to.mmy #demanding responses is not the way

Tubbo tries to get his god damn divorce

word count: who fucking knows

summary: no

~-~-~

"Tommy,just sign the fucking papers."

Tommy got on his knees, wailing at his beloved husband. "No, please! I'll change, I'll be a better man! What if Molly married you as well?"

"More marriage isn't going to fix the situation, just sign the divorce papers!"

"But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But-,", Tommy stuttered, wimpering, "But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But- But… Think of our children, Tubbo…"

He gestured to the corner, where James Marriott and Jack Manifold were sitting.

"Goo-goo ga-ga,", said James, in a very deep and monitone voice.

"Yeah, no, I'm not fucking doing this,", Tubbo sighed, in a very bitch-like manner, as he got up and left.

He decided to take a long walk, to clear his head and question how he got to this point, eventually getting his phone out and calling the only friend he had with experience in The Law.

Quackity waved as he answered, on facetime somehow despite Tubbo calling him on discord. "Hey man, what's up?"

"Hey, Big Q; do you know anything about divorce court?"

"Not a damn thing, I missed that class to watch a soap opera on stream. what'd you need?"

"Could you be my lawyer? I'm trying to get Tommy to divorce me, but he only wants to talk about kissing without tongue and balls."

"Yeah….. About that…….. I'm actually already his lawyer, so……….. Yeah sorry. Too bad you guys didn't have a pre-nup, bye!"

Tubbo sat there in incredibly shocked silence after the man hung up. Yes, sat; man decided to sit in the middle of the sidewalk to ponder where it all went wrong.

His phone pinged, and he saw a message from Quackity telling him that the 'consultation' he'd just gotten was going to cost him $1 million dollars.

Tubbo could afford that, he was a multi-millionaire and a Tory after all, but not having a lawyer on his side didn't leave him with many options. Well, he *did * have one…..

Murder was legal in the UK if the victim was Tommyinnit; the Queen had spoken it into law when she got her restraining order. May lizzie rest in peace, and all that

Tommy had invoked squatters rights in his efforts to 'save their marriage', and had refused to leave Tubbo's home at all times since every second was a second for him to be wooed. Tubbo had shoved him in the closet where he belonged, hence Tommy's lack of streams as of late, so it would be incredibly easy to murder him and claim his wealth.

More money to the hoard, since Tubbo was a rich Tory that disliked the poor. wow that rhymed, regular eminem in these parts.

Anyways Tubbo got home and committed a horrible, unspeakable crime that will not be spoken so he didn't have to put up with any more of tommyinnit's bullshit.

Dragging the corpse to court gave him an easy win, and a medal of honor for taking out one of the nations loudest people that kept up the corrupt politicians all night.

tubbo got the kids and money and married someone famous and hot. idk who pick some hot guy out of a movie that you'd ship with tubbo and that's his happy ending.

The end.

#rate five stars #tommyinnit #tubbo #jack manifold #james marriott #quackity #crack fic #fanfiction #tommy x tubbo #satire #i do not ship them #don't ship real people

the depiction of bruce's rich trust fund kid image is really interesting to contend with over time bc i feel like at least pre-no man's land it was more of an amorphous idea where everyone knew who he was peripherally bc of his parents' murder but other than that bruce wayne wasn't necessarily anyone of much importance. he existed and the manor loomed over the city from its own quiet corner but no one was realistically discussing so and so wayne industry to make small talk in the every day bc unless they had a job with him he wasn't relevant to them. so the post-no man's land image that progressively pandered to this idea of him as a larger than life millionaire that permeates every conversation in the city to the point his children are like little celebrities has never managed to click with me. like it feels nonsensical. granted i understand the events of murderer and fugitive coupled with the testimony he gave during no man's land may really have pushed him to the forefront but what i would imagine to be only a temporary one. like what are the people of gotham going to do. at best the events of those books would evolve into mythic lore but the world would continue to turn and people would move on and certainly none of bruce's children would be relevant to any of it. so why the need to push them as microcelebrities. why the need to get them involve in his industrial endeavors when we already know bruce didn't bother to maintain much involvement in them anyway aside from assuring that all of his shares were distributed to more worthwhile causes. the development of the batman mythos alongside the military-industrial complex can contribute to this conversation but at the root i'm not sure what treating bruce's children like anything other than normal children in a civilian context really merits. maybe it's the new york setting and social strata structure that i'm unfamiliar with but at least from my own experience i can't say that children of rich people in business are that isolated from normal public school life. i went to school with a kid whose family has their own bank with multiple endorsed branches across the city (when i say city i mean a major us metropolitan city). maybe that's lesser in comparison but the point is that their kid was still normal and went to school with the rest of us. i didn't know him long enough to learn where his politics developed but the fact that he came from a entrepreneurial family didn't magically whisk him away from the ordinary life that people in at least the general middle class lived. it didn't come up more than once or twice what his family did. so why the contrasting need to attach bruce's social legacy to his children when there is little chance he has one that would actually matter to other children their age? what would they even do with someone being bruce wayne's adopted kid? make a joke or two about how he never comes out of the manor? idk. i'm rambling here but idgi like what's so hard about bruce's kids just.. going to school and that being it

Okay while i dont think that they are extremely rich, i do think their networth is well over a couple million, mainly just bc there is no way their house is worth less than a million pounds. A house like that? In london? It would not be cheap. Like they dont earn enough to live off it for the rest of their lives, but i also would not say they were struggling by any means. I mean they were able to go 5 years without many significant career endeavors and buy a house during it.

Oh yeah they aren't struggling whatsoever, they are one of the "successful" YouTubers, and they've had more steady income from other sources too, like the radio show. These guys very much are middle class (hence them making bougie jokes- bougie has always referred to middle class), being able to afford a house and all. But that's basically the point of that post, that people who aren't constantly financially struggling and people who have disposable income aren't the same as quote unquote "rich" people.

We're talking in terms of class analysis, yeah? The category of "rich" when used in such phrases as 'eat the rich' is convenient insofar as it helps us categorise the people for whose benefit a capitalist system works, whose interests are being taken into account when making policy, and who horde resources and mooch off of the labour of others. When we're just joking amongst ourselves it's understood what you mean when you call your middle class friends rich, or when you call YouTubers of this status rich (and again, they aren't even like Mr Beast levels of rich, who in turn isn't Hollywood A-listers level rich, who in turn aren't capitalist pig Bezzos level rich). But with a lot of people getting more involved in online activism these concepts are getting blurred and our perceptions of class are affected.

So while I've seen no one from like, our fandom do this, I've seen this happen to other YouTubers (and a friend and I were just talking about it today so it was on my mind) where people who haven't taken the time to understand class divides very well think that internet celebrities are genuinely hand to heart rich rich. On the same level as rich when we say the ruling class the elite the exploitative rich class. Except they aren't. They're middle class and upper middle class people. Even the millionaires amongst them are a far far cry from billionaires (we've seen the graphics explaining the massive difference between a million and a billion of course). And that skewed idea of "disposable income/being able to afford a house or good phone or bathtub or [insert item associated with Richness] means that this person is Rich" becomes dangerous when applied to clear political action in terms of class divide. Because then we're viewing these YouTubers as being the class that has their interests taken care of and are the ones exploiting people, rather than industry workers who are getting exploited by companies like YouTube.

And people very much are taking it too far, like that person who said John Boyega can't talk about class struggles and exploitation because he's also 'the rich'. He isn't. And these YouTubers aren't either but skewed ideas of what wealth looks like drives online hordes to view the wrong people as the enemy or as the exploitative class.

When talking about "the rich" we should be thinking about the capitalists. Blurring these classes is an issue precisely because people online are now engaging with artists and creators with great contempt, entitlement, and misdirected "eat the rich seize their resources" calls to action.

Btw not at all saying you should stop making jokes about them being rich lol, that's again, something we understand as "they have monies now" amongst ourselves. It's more to understand and know how to counter any misdirected rage of the sort we've seen lot of other internet celebrities and actors face. Idk how clear I've made this but feel free to follow up with me!

#hope anyone didn't feel like i was mad about the bougie jokes lol we've all been making them it's cool #and if some attacks were to happen based on it they probs won't come from the phandom anyway right?#more in general about how internet celebrities get treated nowadays because it makes me so sad #and also angry that we're distracting from the real rich who are supposed to get eaten lol #asks #dnp

I started writing a self-insert OC Venture Bros fic but idk if I'll finish it, however what I've got is too good not to share (spoilers for season 6 & 7)

"This... Is our new target. Or, I guess more like this is Venture's newest Guild mandated arch."

Henchman 21 leaned over the dining room table, shuffling the stack of papers around so he could read them better.

"Doctor Bedlam?" 21 hissed through his teeth, a sympathetic twist in his furrowed brows. "He's like. Y'know."

"What? Like what?" The Monarch demanded. He had one fist propped up on his cocked hip, the other spread flat across the table. It was still a bit funny to see him in both his cowl and a silk robe. "You chickening out on me now, huh?"

"No, no, no, no," 21 shook his head emphatically. "I just think we should exercise some uh... Extra level of caution."

"Is there something I'm missing here?" The Monarch held up their target's picture. "Are you really that afraid of this fucking... Tony Stark/Slumdog Millionaire lookin' motherfucker?"

"The only reason why Doctor Bedlam isn't a 10 is he doesn't actively kill," 21 crossed his arms, one brow quirked. "Imagine a beast like Red Death but sub the bloodlust for, like, literal clinical psychopathy. You wanna act casual about that?"

"Really?" The Monarch looked at the picture again, pursing his lips in thought. "This guy? He looks like one of those cringey pick-up artists but he only goes after yacht club college girls."

Henchman 21 simply shrugged.

"I'm only speakin' the facts, boss. Don't underestimate this guy."

"Feh," The Monarch flapped his hand and let the sheet of paper flutter back down onto the table, already distracted by an exploration of the fridge. "Nothing the mighty Blue Morpho and his trusty Kano can't handle. We'll suit up after breakfast."

🦋🦋🦋

The Monarch-- or rather, Blue Morpho whistled in appreciation once he and 'Kano' were dropped off by taxi at their location.

"Damn, nice digs," The Monarch mumbled. "What floor is this guy on again?"

"Penthouse suite," Henchman 21 double-checked his notes before folding up the paper into a tiny square and tucking it in his pocket. "Top floor, baby. This guy's an arms dealer, he's like rich rich."

"Like Batman rich or like...?"

"I've heard rumors he's like Oprah rich."

"Daaamn."

Shockingly, the duo got into the building with no issue. Strange. The security seemed non-existent, the only visible employee being some older guy snoring at the front desk. They slipped into the elevator but when The Monarch reached for the penthouse button, 21 superceded him, obscuring it with a cupped palm.

"We'll take the floor below then climb the stairs to the roof," He encouraged, thumbing the 29th floor instead. "Who knows what kinda shit he's got waiting for us at the door."

"I still think you're overreacting," The Monarch rolled his eyes but didn't fight back, leaning against the wall as the elevator ascended. "Why the hell would the Guild assign such a supposed level 11 badass to a shmuck like Venture?"

"No clue," 21 frowned for a moment. "It's not like Dr. Venture goes out and does superhero work, he's kind of a shut-in."

"Yeah," The Monarch snickered. "He doesn't save cats in trees or kiss babies or whatever. Sometimes he's almost as much a villain as I am. Did you know he powered one of his inventions with a fucking dead orphan kid once?"

"Fucked up but also hardcore."

The elevator dinged and the doors slid open. Just across the hall was the emergency exit and, once again, the pair slipped out and up with no issues whatsoever. After a brief climb, they were on the roof and overlooking the rest of New York City from a bird's eye view.

"Alright, here's a vent we can enter through," 21 grunted with effort as one of his knives popped open the grate. "This should hopefully take us to the living room but we'll take it nice and slow."

"Move over," The Monarch barked, easily tucking both long legs into the vent, using a swift rush of momentum to zoom in like a slide. "And have more confidence in your leader!"

Crawling on hands and knees, they managed to move rather quietly, pausing over every subsequent grate to peek down and do some reconnaissance. There were exits into a master bathroom, the living room, the kitchen, and what looked like a study. It was too dark to tell but that seemed advantageous so 21 silently lifted the grate and the pair soundlessly hit the floor on two feet.

IS just published an article about Käärijä's yearly earnings and he has made a lot less yearly than I do in Hesburger. The tabloids really tried to push the narrative that he's supposed to be rich as fuck but to me he's just as regular as he claims to be, plus whatever brand deals are thrown at him thanks to his fame now. Whatever apartment (sijoitusasunto) he owns is probably shared with some relative or an equivalent as he had made under 5000 euros a year from it at the most in the tax data the tabloids dug up.

Yes, he will probably be getting a dump of streaming money sometime this year but wasn't the whole apartment deal temporary? Haven't sportspeople given plots for houses since the dawn of time? Didn't Lordi get one too from Rovaniemi? Like actual property to own?

This whole "millionaire Käärijä" seems pulling drama out of nowhere because there isn't that much juicy dirt to dig up from him in the first place.

I never said that he's a millionaire, nobody can become one in such a short time, but I really thought that he is living wealthy due to media and articles about him. The deal was for a year. And I don't know about Lordi, if that's true it's bullshit too. In my views it's just not very cool, as people really suffer from poverty and we favour one person who most likely can afford the rent himself.

Idk how much a monthly rent in Vantaa is, but let's say it's 1000€ month. It's 12000€ in a year. What if instead of that we put the money to help the poor, like offer more food aid, maybe you could brand it the "käärijä-kassi" to give for the poor (like our ruoka-apu kassi but with his brand on it) or something if they want to do something to honour him. Idk, I am struggling to get my point through as my brain can't think in english today.

Idk exactly how to describe it but that thing Succession does where it shows you how disgustingly rich the Roys actually are by like. Putting them in our context. Trying to help us understand what a billion actually is.

For example Tom is an outsider in the Roy family because he’s not “from money” (as he says), and if you’re like me, you automatically assume that he is from a working or middle class background.

But then we find out his mom is one of the most “highly respected” lawyers in the Twin Cities? The Twin Cities, which are actually a hugely important metropolitan area with a population of like 5mil?

And it just gives you this clarity like. Huh. Okay, so he was already a millionaire. He probably grew up in a big house in a really nice neighborhood and will have inheritance coming down the pike. But the Roys are so filthy rich that someone making, say, $850k a year inspires pity and disgust and condescending charity.

It’s like, imagine a rich person. What you (a normal person) consider a rich person. A person who has multiple fancy cars and a big college fund and goes to Disney every year. Whose parents own a big fancy house and have good credit scores and important jobs. Who has a pool in their backyard and has been to Europe or whatever. Now imagine a person who is so rich that they normally would not even speak to that person because they’re too poor

Most likely to…

…become a millionaire - Markus probably already is one due to generational wealth, Deniz too

…date more than one person at a time – Leon if one hcs him as straight. He has a bit of a fuckboy vibe. Then again.... I think he is a bad liar. So idk. Markus, solely for the rich boy energy

…survive an alien abduction – Vanessa

…get arrested – multiple options. Marlon could get arrested at a protest, Leon could get arrested for doing something stupid while drunk (he has a serious violent streak). Also obviously Michi and Kong (who canonically almost got arrested)

…get a (embarrassing) tattoo – regular tattoo: Marlon, Vanessa, Jojo, Leon; embarrassing tattoo: Raban

…become a president/prime minister – mhhhh i honestly have no idea. Marlon is diplomatic and has "politically active" vibes but i don't see him there. Gotta choose the easy way out and say Herr von Theumer.

…lie in a job interview – Leon, Vanessa

…join a cult – Jojo or Leon. Both seem to have issues that seem like a good foundation to get recruited for a cult. Need for stability, etc.

…win an Oscar – do we have an actor amongst the dwk group? Maybe Vanessa, she was great at pretending to be Jojos sister from america. (In hindsight i would have loved a school play themed episode.)

…start a business – Raban is a bit of a mess but he does have a science mind. Deniz is the kinda guy who would call himself an "entrepreneur" online

Nice! Always fun to hear someone else’s thoughts!

ngl saying noah can't be scared because he's a multimillionaire or whatever is weird because regardless of what ur opinions on the situation are (free palenstine tho), jews across the world ARE scared right now. there's been a huge uptick in antisemitism and people aren't calling it out. protestors yelled gas the jews and hamas actively denies the holocaust. your jewish friends do get hurt and scared when they see people supporting hamas. not palestinians: hamas. im sorry, but of course a gay jew is scared of the rise of a terrorist organisation that hates gays and jews? also you guys are clearly misreading the "either you support israel or terrorism", he literally distinguished hamas from palestine and it's pretty obvious he's saying stand with the citizens who are being targeted by war crimes vs hamas. i do think he should've not said that bit though considering how much more shit the palestinians go through and i don't know how on earth that got past, but i do get what he was saying.

idk, i get he's rich but i don't think that gives you the right to ignore the homophobia and antisemitism he experiences.

Going to address the first half of your post and I want you to listen carefully. I feel deeply sorry for the uptick of antisemitism no one should feel afraid for their lives but not one bomb is flying over their heads. He lives in America and American Jews don’t have to fear for their literal life and be cut off from food supply and water, and Noah specifically he is a millionaire. I don’t want you to take my statement and say i don’t care about Jewish fear over the hamas attacks and I do, I sympathize over the innocent losses. I don’t appreciate however that they only talk about their fear and not the ones actively losing their lives right now in that land. Right now Gaza is being bombed and the prime minister of Israel is talking about completely ruining Gaza. Their is WAR happening this is not comparable in any compacity. He is privileged and safe and that’s way more then what innocent Palestinians are going through/have been going through.

im side eyeing c&a as much as the next person and it bothers me how she is always following him around (not just the races but sponsor events, even things like karting or the factory in maranello where there is no need for a wag appearance, it's not a date, it's his job) but in this case i think it's really not that deep

monaco really only has two shopping centres/malls. the metropole (luxurious, high end stores, fancy) and another one in in a less touristy part of the city for the ‘normal’ residents. the metropole shopping center and hotel are practically connected and c&a were seen in the mall together (charles also took pics with fans inside)

judging by alexandra’s childhood/high school photos and the fact that charles has a tendency to pick his gfs from his social circle (so people who are monegasque or at least grew up in monaco bc that’s the most convenient/familiar/relatable for him) she spent most of her life in monaco so i would be surprised if she didn’t at least have a family home to go back to if not her own place

yes he’s been seen at the casino a lot (also with her) but idk if that hints at anything major. monaco is just really small and this is the center of the fanciest part of it ofc rich people are going to be seen there a lot. not saying he couldn’t afford to pay for her to live in a 5 star hotel when he’s a millionaire but sometimes the simplest solutions are the ones closest to reality
