Even if I never get to be with you. You are a daydream in this world of nightmares. I’ll never regret telling you how I felt even though you turned me down. Even if all I’m allowed is stolen glances, I’ll take what I can get. ♥️

Alyssa pours something on Jet as he's going down the stairs, he comes back up, "Who did it?" and freaks the fuck out, breaks glass, just goes fucking crazy.
Jet didn't have a day off, he just was being relegated to shark duty I guess.

2024.11.27 00:40 BlasphemousMusic Help choosing upgrade router
Since its black Friday and things are cheaper I wanted to upgrade my router. I currently have an asus rt ac3100.
I've seen a few in the range I want to pay. The tp link be 550 (or be9300), asus rt be92u seem to be two in the range (max of $350). I'm certain these both will be a significant upgrade.
I've only ever owned asus and linksys, I like the app, which admittedly i don't use often. I have a 2 story house but majority of clients are down stairs same floor as the router. I'd like easy software/app, no subscriptions for features, good signal range and somewhat future proof.

2024.11.27 00:40 Rude_Lifeguard [Music] Taylor Swift vs KimYe: 15 years of feuding
You've probably heard of the incident before. At the 2009 VMA's,19yo Taylor Swift wins the "Best female video" award for "You Belong With Me", she takes the stage ready to celebrate her first VMA win when a wasted Kanye West stumbles on stage to let everyone know that Beyonce should have won before walking off, robbing Taylor of her moment.
What you might not know about is how this feud continued to develop from that moment on and how for the last 15 years both Kanye and Taylor have kept the flame alive and made sure everyone knows they will never get over that moment.
Background:
On November 11th, 2008 Taylor released her sophomore album "Fearless", which would skyrocket her to fame after the album debuted at #1 on multiple charts, including the hot 100 and sprung 2 of the biggest hits of her career in the form of "Love story" and "You belong with me".
Meanwhile, 13 days later on the 24th, Kanye released his 4th studio album "808s & Heartbreak", his first release since the passing of his mother and the end of his engagement that saw him experimenting with a new sound with which he continued his careers upward tragetory.
A month later we see the first public interaction (for lack of a better word) between the two, when Taylor spoke about her desire to work with Kanye during an interview with allure magazine:
I had this dream that Kanye West called me and said "I wanna rap one of your songs". Then i woke up and was really mad that it was just a dream (source)The 2009 VMA's:
On the night of the 2009 VMA's, Taylor showed up to the award ceremony looking straight off a disney princess movie in a carriage, while Kanye showed up late with a half empty bottle of Hennessy.
Later in the night, the "Best female video" category was called and Taylor won her first VMA over Pink, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Lady Gaga and Beyonce. As she started to make her speech the mic was snatched from her hand by Kanye:
“Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!” (source)He said before giving the mic back and getting off stage as the camera panned to a booing crowd and a surprised Beyonce before cutting to comercial.
Immediatly after, the producers had to scramble to figure out how to move foward with the night as Kanye and Beyonce were still nominated for a number of awards that had not yet been called and Taylor was expected to perform live from Times Square.
Dave Sirulnick, one of the producers of the show, had a heated discution with Kanye in which he asked him to leave the building, meanwhile, Van Toffler, then president of Viacom, went after Taylor and her mother, both of whom were crying, to apologize and promise that they were going to make things right for her to prevent her from leaving before her performance.
After that Van went to talk to Beyonce, who was also crying to her father, and in order to stop her from leaving, let her know that she was going to win the "Video of the year" award and "wouldn’t it be nice to have Taylor come up and have her moment then?". And so it happened (source)
Taylor performed "You belong with me" and soon there after, Beyonce won the big award of the night and asked her to come up on stage and finish her speech (source)
At the end of the show, while talking to the press, Taylor said of the incident:
I was standing on stage and I was really excited because I'd just won the award and then I was really excited because Kanye West was on stage … And then I wasn't excited anymore after that,Of Beyonce she said:
Um, they told me to stand by the side of the stage. Um, and I didn't really know what was gonna go down, but I thought it was just so wonderful. and gracious of her to do what she's always done. She's always just been a great person.On his part, Kanye released an "apology" to his blog (probably while still drunk) that was quickly deleted (source)
I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHE WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEELEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS!................I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKEN AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!.................... BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FAINS IF I LET YOU GUYS GOWN!!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYOBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I'M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE.....WELL YOU KNOW!!! I'M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!!!! BOOOYAAAAWWWWW!!!! YOU ARE VERY TALENTED. I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME,,, THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!! I'M NOT CRACY YALL. I'M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I'M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!He followed this up the following day with a second apology:
"I feel like Ben Stiller in Meet the Parents when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave. That was Taylor's moment and I had no right in any way to take it from her. I am truly sorry." (source)Immediatly after and in the days following the incident, a number of public figures came out in defense of Taylor and condemmed Kanye's behavior.
Pink called him a piece of shit, Donald Trump asked people to boycott all things Kanye, Barack Obama called him a jackass, Joe Jackson called for him to be blackballed, and Kelly Clarkson questioned if he didnt get enough hugs as a child (source)
The next day, Kanye was scheduled to perform alongside Jay-Z on the Jay Lennon show, however, he requested to talk before the performance in order to apologize again:
It’s been a difficult day. I’m just dealing with the fact that I hurt someone or took anything away from a talented artist or from anyone, because I only wanted to help people … I immediately knew in this situation that it was wrong … It’s someone’s emotions that I stepped on. It was rude, period. (source)Days later, on the 19th, Taylor gave an interview to The View in which she addressed the situation once again:
I’m not going to say I wasn’t rattled by it. I had to perform live five minutes later, so I had to get myself back to the place where I could perform. … All the other artists who showed me love in the hours following that, I just never imagined there were that many people out there looking out for me. (source)In November, Taylor had the "last" laught during her first appearance on SNL where she joked about the incident during her opening monologue:
You might think I might say/something bad about Kanye/and how he ran up on the stage and ruined my VMA monologue/but there’s nothing more to say/because everything’s okay/I’ve got security lining the stage.Meanwhile, due to the intense backlash Kanye decided to leave the lime light in order to get himself together and figure out a way to come back from this. According to one of his collaborator, while he was working on his next album in Hawaii, Kanye was worried that the incident might have cost him his career which led to him creating G.O.O.D Fridays, a weekly free music release ahead of the release of his fith studio album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy"
After the infamous Taylor Swift moment, I sort of did a little self-exile, just to get away from paparazzi and to have people not, you know, just fucking with me constantly. I went to Hawaii and took all the creative energy that I wanted to express and we put it into an album called My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. (source)Innocence vs Runaway
On September 12th, 2010, Taylor and Kanye would return to the VMA's to debut their new songs which both reference the incident.
Taylor went up first to perform "Innocent", a song in which she tells Kanye that he's not what he did, he can still find the right path and after all, he's still an innocent:
It's okay, life is a tough crowd 32 and still growin' up now Who you are is not what you did You're still an innocentShe would later go on to say that the song was about forgiving someone for what they did to her and that she wanted to write a song to Kanye and not about Kanye (source)
Meanwhile, Kanye closed the show with his performance of Runway. The song doesn't directly reference Taylor or the incident, nor is it an apology or explanation, but more so Kanye admiting to being a douche
And I always find, yeah, I always find somethin' wrong You been puttin' up wit' my shit just way too long I'm so gifted at findin' what I don't like the most So I think it's time (so I think it's time) For us to have a toastWhile promoting his album, Kanye was asked why he interrupted her and he said:
I feel in some ways I’m a soldier of culture. And I realize no one wants that to be my job. I’ll never go onstage again, I’ll never sit at an awards show again, but will I feel conflicted about things that meant something to culture that constantly get denied for years and years and years? I’m sorry, I will. I cannot lie about it in order to sell records.War is over:
For the next couple of years the two mostly avoided the topic but Taylor referenced it a couple of times in a way that made it seemed like she was past it, for example on March 2012, Taylor wore a shirt from Kanye's clothing line during her photoshoot for Australian Harper’s Bazaar (source) and a year later she reference the incident in the label of a jar of jam she gifted Ed Sheeran (source)
Meanwhile, Kanye was asked about it during the promotion of his album "Yeezus", he said that he didn't regret what he did and probably wouldnt take it back if he could:
[The Taylor VMA incident] only led me to complete awesomeness at all times. It’s only led me to awesome truth and awesomeness. Beauty, truth, awesomeness. That’s all it is.You know what? I can answer that, but I’m — I’m just — not afraid, but I know that would be such a distraction. It’s such a strong thing, and people have such a strong feeling about it. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was my long, backhanded apology. You know how people give a backhanded compliment? It was a backhanded apology. It was like, all these raps, all these sonic acrobatics. I was like: ‘Let me show you guys what I can do, and please accept me back. You want to have me on your shelves. (source)
In 2015, both seemed to have fully put the entire feud completely behind them as they started to interact publically starting at the 2015 Grammy's where the two of them, plus, Kanye's then wife Kim Kardashian, were seen hanging out together through out the night (source)
The next day Kanye gave an interview to Ryan Secrets and he said:
Taylor Swift came up to me right after [Beck won the album of the year Grammy over Beyonce], like literally afterwards, and tells me I should have went on stage. This is the irony in my life. She wants to get in the studio, and we’re definitely going to go in. Any artist with an amazing point of view, perspective, fanbase, I’m down to get in the studio and work. I don’t discriminate.Months later, Taylor talked about their new friendship in an interview to Vanity Fairs:
I feel like I wasn’t ready to be friends with him until I felt like he had some sort of respect for me, and he wasn’t ready to be friends with me until he had some sort of respect for me — so it was the same issue, and we both reached the same place at the same time.Then, at that years VMA's, the two shared a full circle moment when Taylor presented Kanye with the "Vanguard Award":
I became friends with Jay-Z, and I think it was important, for Jay-Z, for Kanye and I to get along. … And then Kanye and I both reached a place where he would say really nice things about my music and what I’ve accomplished, and I could ask him how his kid’s doing.
We haven’t planned [any collaboration] … But hey, I like him as a person. And that’s a really good, nice first step, a nice place for us to be. (source)
I first met Kanye West six years ago — at this show, actually!. It seemed like everyone in the world knew about our infamous encounter at the VMAs. But something that you may not know is that Kanye West’s album College Dropout was the very first album my brother and I bought on iTunes when I was 12 years old. … I have been a fan of his for as long as I can remember because Kanye defines what it means to be a creative force in music, fashion and, well, life. So I guess I have to say to all the other winners tonight: I’m really happy for you, and I’mma let you finish, but Kanye West has had one of the greatest careers of all time!On his part, Kanye went on stage and gave a 13 minute long speech in which he rambled about a number of things, including announcing his run for president in 2020 and of course, the 2009 VMA's incident:
If I had a daughter at that time, would I have went onstage and grabbed the mic from someone else’s? ...You know how many times MTV ran that footage again because it got them more ratings? You know how many times they announced Taylor was presenting the award because it got more ratings?...I’m conflicted bro. I just wanted people to like me more. (source)And a few days later he sent her a floral arragement. Taylor posted a photo to instagram with the caption: "Awww Kanye sent me the coolest flowers!! #KanTay2020 #BFFs."
"I made that bitch famous":
The friendship would quickly come to an end on February 12th, 2016, when Kanye released the infamous song "Famous" from the album "Life of Pablo" which contained the lyrics:
For all my South Side niggas that know me best I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex Why? I made that bitch famous (Goddamn!) I made that bitch famousA few hours later he took to twitter to clearify that he was not dissing Taylor and that she knew and approved of the lyrics during a phonecall:
I did not diss Taylor Swift and I’ve never dissed her...I’m not even gone take credit for the idea… it’s actually something Taylor came up with … She was having dinner with one of our friends who’s name I will keep out of this and she told him … I can’t be mad at Kanye because he made me famous! (source)Immediatly after, through her publicist Tree Paine, Taylor released a statement in which she states that she did not know he would call her a bitch and he didn't call to ask for approval
Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, ‘I made that bitch famous.' (source)3 days later, at the Grammy's, Taylor became the first woman to win 2 AOTY awards and during her speech referenced the situation by saying:
And as the first woman to win album of the year at the Grammy's twice, I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame. But if you just focus on the work and you don't let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you're going, you will know it was you and the people who love you who put you there, and that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment.Things were pretty quiet from both sides for the next few months until in July, Kanye's then wife, Kim Kardashian, gave an interview to GQ magazine in which she said that Taylor approved of the lyrics and that there's video of the phonecall to prove it:
totally gave the OK. Rick Rubin was there. So many respected people in the music business heard that [conversation] and knew. I mean, he’s called me a b—h in his songs. That’s just, like, what they say. I never once think, [gasping] ‘What a derogatory word! How dare he?’ Not in a million years. I don’t know why she just, you know, flipped all of a sudden. … It was funny because [on the call with Kanye, Taylor] said, ‘When I get on the Grammy red carpet, all the media is going to think that I’m so against this, and I’ll just laugh and say, ‘The joke’s on you, guys. I was in on it the whole time.’ And I’m like, wait, but [in] your Grammy speech, you completely dissed my husband just to play the victim again. (source)In response, Taylor's team released a statement she understood that Kim had to stand by her husband but the two of them were lying. She once again said that she and Kanye only talked once, that he didnt call to ask for permition but to ask her to promote the song, that he never told her he would call her a bitch and that she heard the song for the first time at the same time as everyone else.
A few days later, in an episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians, Kim said that she was tired of people talking shit about Kanye and that she was going to do whatever she needed to do to protect him:
Kanye is always so honest and speaks his mind. When we were first dating, everyone would talk s–t about me and he always had my back. At this point, I really don’t give a f–k so I’ll do whatever to protect my husband.3 days later, Kim took to snaptchat to share a short video of the phonecall in which Taylor seems flatered by the line "i think me and Taylor might still have sex" and grateful that he called to ask for her approval, however, there is no mention of "i made that bitch famous" (source)
[Taylor] legitimately, quote, says, ‘As soon as I get on that Grammy red carpet, I’m gonna tell all the press I was in on it. Just another way to play the victim. Definitely got her a lot of attention the first time.
In response, Taylor took to twitter and said:
Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that b—h’ in his song?” she wrote, per a screenshot of a note. “It doesn’t exist because it never happened.” She added, “While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye on the phone call, you cannot ‘approve’ a song you haven’t heard. Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination. (source)A few months later during one of his concerts, while he was perfoming Famous the crowd broke into "fuck Taylor Swift" chants (source) and at the 2016 VMA's he once again stated that he called and asked her for permition (source)
#TaylorSwiftIsOverParty:
Unlike in 2009, this time the public and the media mostly sided with Kanye after the video was released and Taylor was branded a snake after Kim tweeted celebrating international snake day (source)
It's important to note that Taylor's "downfall" had been on its way for at least a year before this happened. After the release of her album 1989 in 2014, she became probably the biggest artist at that time and she was incredibly over exposed. She would be seen by the paparazzi almost every day and her every move was reported by the media.
From 2014 to 2016, she had already been at the center of a number of controversies that primed the public and the media to see her as someone who played victim and was secretly a mean girl.
One of these incidents was her feud with Katy Perry. The two had been friends for years but Taylor accused her of trying to ruin her tour and as retribution she wrote the song "Bad Blood" which was promoted with a music video in which Taylor featured all of her friends getting ready to destroy Katy.
Katy would later claim that what happened is that she asked two dancers with whom she had worked before and were working at the time with Taylor to put in their two weeks notice if they wanted to go on tour with her again but when Taylor found out she fired them. She tried to reach out to Taylor to fix things but she refused. Katy responded to the Kanye situation by comparing Taylor to Regina George (source)
Another one was her team leaking to the public that she had ghost a song for her ex boyfriend Calvin Harris. He responded in a series of tweets calling her out for trying to make him look bad and "bury him like she did Katy" (source)
She had also been branded as greedy for taking her music off of spotify because she felt that they didnt pay artist enough, threatening to sue her old guitar teacher for starting a site called "ITaughtTaylorSwift.com" and sending cease and desist letter to etsy shops that used her likeness.
Soon after the phonecall video was released, #TaylorSwiftisoverparty trended worlwide on Twitter and Taylor's instagram was floded with snake emojis (which would later prompt the app to add a feature to hide comments).
In response to the backlash, much like Kanye in 2009, Taylor dissapeared, kind of. She still had a number of appearances during this time, she just reduced them by a lot in comparison to how exposed to the media she had been prior to the phonecall being leaked. (source) It's possible that this would have happened anyways because she had said she wanted to take a break after the grammys, but this decrease of public appearances was influenced by the backlash.
Reputation:
On August 18th, 2017, Taylor deleted all of her posts from all her social media channels. 3 days later, on the 21st, she uploaded 3 videos of snakes (source) and on August 25th she dropped the first single of her 6th studio album "Look what you made me do"
In the song Taylor accuses Kanye of being a liar and framing her as one, she also makes reference to the stage of his tour in which the crowd chanted "fuck Taylor Swift", she also says that he (and her other foes) will get what they deserve and that "the old Taylor is dead". (source)
2 days later, on the 27th, at the 2017 VMA's, Taylor released the music video for the song. In it there are references to a number of people and controversies that she had over the years, but at the end of the video theres a group of Taylor Swift's standing in line which include the one from the 2009 VMA's asking to be excluded from the narrative. (source)
A few months later, on November 10th , she released her 6th studio album "Reputation" in which she references Kanye in multiple songs, however, the only song that is entirely about the situation is "This is why we can't have nice things":
In the song she directly calls him out for "ruining her party", stabbing her in the back after she gave him a second chance, "mind tricking" her on the phone, not being the only friend he lost as he fell off with Jayz and Beyonce around the same time and in the bridge of the song she laughs at the idea of forgiving him. (source)
Keeping the feud alive:
For what i can tell, there was no direct or indirect response from Kanye nor Kim to the release of the album, probably because at this time he was going through his very public mental health crisis, so they had way bigger fishes to fry.
Jumping to 2019, after staying silent, Kim said during an interview that she was over the feud and they had all moved on, however it doesn't seem like Taylor got that memo as she continued to reference it multiple times for the next couple of years.
Firstly, in August for the promotion of her album "Lover", Taylor released some of her diary entires. In the one from the 2009 VMA's she wrote:Let's just say, if you had told me that Kanye West would have been the number one focus of my week, the media, and my part in the VMAs, I would've looked at you crossed-eyed,If you had told me that I would win the award I was nominated for, I wouldn't have believed you, And if you had told me that one of the biggest stars in music was going to jump up onstage and announce that he thought I shouldn't have won on live television,I would've said, 'That stuff doesn't really happen in real life.' Well... apparently... it does. (source)
While in the entry from the summer of 2016 she simply said:
This summer is the apocalypse (source)Later that year, in a statement about her music catalog being sold, she also brought up the phone call video and the mv for Famous, as evidence that she had been bullied at the hands of Scotter Braun and his clients:
Like when Kim Kardashian orchestrated an illegally recorded snippet of a phone call to be leaked and then Scooter got his two clients together to bully me online about it, (Justin Bieber posted a photo with Kanye with the caption Taylor what's up) (source)In September of 2019, during an interview with Rolling Stones, she said that they reconected because she really wanted his approval and respect but she ended up realizing that he was two faced and would talk shit about her in public to look cool:
Or when his client, Kanye West, organized a revenge porn music video which strips my body naked. Now Scooter has stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy. Essentially, my musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it. (source)
He can be the sweetest. And I was so stoked that he asked me that. And so I wrote this speech up, and then we get to the VMAs and I make this speech and he screams, ‘MTV got Taylor Swift up here to present me this award for ratings!’ [His exact words: ‘You know how many times they announced Taylor was going to give me the award ’cause it got them more ratings?’] And I’m standing in the audience with my arm around his wife, and this chill ran through my body. I realized he is so two-faced. That he wants to be nice to me behind the scenes, but then he wants to look cool, get up in front of everyone and talk s–t. And I was so upset.She also talked about both the 2009 VMA's and the phonecall in her documentary "Miss Americana". She said that she originally though that the crowd was booing at her and that the incident affected her in a deep level because her entire life had revolved around people liking her. She also said that the cancelation was hard and that she desided to dissapear because she though that was what people wanted and that once people hate you there's nothing you can do to change their mind.
So when he gets on the phone with me, and I was so touched that he would be respectful and, like, tell me about this one line in the song,” she continued. “And I was like, ‘OK, good. We’re back on good terms.’ And then when I heard the song, I was like, ‘I’m done with this. If you want to be on bad terms, let’s be on bad terms, but just be real about it. (source)
Taylor's vindication:
On March 21st, 2020, the full video of the phonecall. The video is 20 minutes long and finally vindicated Taylor as it shows that Kanye never mentioned that he would call her a bitch and in fact, Taylor explicitly says that she was worried he would and even asked him if the line would be mean.
She also seemed apprehensive about the "i made her famous" line and overall, didnt seem excited about the situation at all. Also, it showed that Kanye did call to ask her to promote the song and she was the one who asked him to tell her the lyrics. (source)
Following the release of the call #TaylorToldTheTruth, #KimKardashianIsOverParty and "KanyeWestIsOverParty, started to trend on twitter.
Taylor addressed the new recording on an instagram story in which she said:
Instead of answering those who are asking how I feel about the video footage that leaked, proving that I was telling the truth the whole time about that call (you know, the one that was illegally recorded, that somebody edited and manipulated in order to frame me and put me, my family, and fans through hell for 4 years)… SWIPE UP to see what really matters (source)Meanwhile, Kim posted multiple tweets in which she said she though it was self serving to talk about this in the middle of the covid pandemic and that the only issue she had with Taylor was that she claimed he never called to ask for permission and that the problem was never about the word bitch but whether he called or not and the tone of the call because she lied when she said that she cautined him about releasing a mysoginistic song. (source)
In response, Taylor's publicist took to twitter to re post their original statement in which they pointed out that Kanye had called to ask her to promote the song on twitter, not for her approval (source)
The feud continues tho:
Despite having won the feud, Taylor would continue to refence it in her music and talk about it in her interviews.
In 2020, in her albums Folklore and Evermore, she mentions them in songs like "mad woman" in which she calls Kim (and others) out for doing the dirty work for her husband, "peace" in which she calls Kanye a clown and "long story short" in which she tells her past self that he nemesis will destroy themselves before she can do it.
Meanwhile, in her 2024 album "The tortured poests department" she dedicaded two songs to Kim.
In "thanK you aIMee", Taylor compares Kim to a highschool bully, says that it wasnt a fair fight between them, that her mom wished she were dead and that one day her daugther will go home singing a song only the two of them will know is about her. (Kim's daugther North is known to be a fan of Taylors". (source)
Meanwhile, in "Cassandra" she sings about the video of the phonecall and compares herself to the Trojan priestess who was fated by Apollo to say true prophecies but never be believed (source)
About these songs, Kim's team said that she was over it and didn't understand why Taylor was still talking about it:
Kim has moved on from the Taylor feud and doesn’t care about her song ‘thanK you aIMee.’ She has put it in the past, especially since their drama happened so long ago. Kim respects Taylor as an artist but doesn’t have a strong desire to settle their differences right now. (source)During her concert in Mexico in 2023, after she had to stop talking because of how loudly people were cheering she referenced the 2009 VMA's again, saying:
It’s the best way to be interrupted, by the way, just people chanting your name,It’s really the only way to be interrupted, and I would know. (source)Her most recent mention of the feud was in her 2023 "Person of the year" interview in which she accused Kim and Kanye of trying to destroy her career:
You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar,” she says. “That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls. I pushed away most people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone anymore. I went down really, really hard.I thought that moment of backlash was going to define me negatively for the rest of my life. (source)Meanwhile, the last mention Kanye did of Taylor was in a song from his latest album "Vultures 2" in which Lil Wayne said:
I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce.Also, Vultures 2 became Kanye's first album to not debut at #1 since his debut album as it was blocked by Taylor's album.
Conclusion
That's it, for now anyways, they'll probably reference the situations at some point again cause they just cant help themselves,

2024.11.27 00:40 Ang181 My Tier List AND Full explanation
 | https://preview.redd.it/kbf1wa2pac3e1.png?width=1140&format=png&auto=webp&s=8f0e40945ffbac13b2cc354362175e8c9fbcbef8 I will go into more depth for EVERY single character and my thoughts on them and why they ranked where thy did. First I'll quickly explain the grading scale. This tier list will take into account the META as well. The 5 things I'll be looking at are DMG, Survivability, Utility, Matchups, and how rewarded are you for how much effort you put in. Below are what are some of the things that would qualify a character for a certain tier. I will also Highlight THE GATE KEEPERS that I basically used to compare people off of. Carried(S+): High Dmg over short time, High Survivability, High utility, little to no bad matchups, forces the enemy to put in more effort than you do. S: High Dmg over short time, High survivability, Good-high utility, Some bad matchups but mostly good or neutral ones, Effort doesn't have to be high for good outcomes. A: Great Dmg, Good survivability, Good-high utility, More neutral matchups than bad or good, Effort is rewarded. B: Good Dmg Fast, Good survivability, Okay Utility, Many bad matchups and many good matchups not may neutral, effort is rewarded however some matchups mean you must put in way more effort. C: Good Dmg over a long time, Bad survivability, okay utility, More bad and neutral matchups than good ones, need more effort than the opponent to win most of the time D: Situational Dmg, Situational Survivability, Situational Utility, Almost 0 good matchups, Effort is not rewarded and there is probably a better version of you. CARRIED TIER (S+) Hawks: Every fight against you is a defensive fight. Hawks controls the pace of the fight. You fight by his rules. Attacking and defending as Hawks takes much less effort than defending and attacking into a Hawks. Being so mobile means that even in air it can be hard to hit you so bad matchups are almost not existent. Red Deku: Highest most consistent DMG in the game. DMG is dealt very fast so you can't retaliate before your HP is gone. High vertical mobility, Massive practically undodgeable AOE. Alpha has very good hitboxes and range. REALLY good against high mobility demons that fill the meta. Purple Todo: THE best defensive play of any character. Massive AOE on super low cooldown. Super easy to land attacks. Total shutdown of anyone that tries to get close thanks to literally your entire kit. Dmg is not to be underestimated. 0 bad matchups. S TIER Red Dabi (Gatekeeper of Carried Tier): Barely didn't make it to Carried tier due to susceptibility to getting caught out. All you really need is positioning to succeed as Red Dabi. Insane Dmg. Practically undodgeable. Okay survivability. Utility when stalling for a teammate to get up. Froppy: Really easy movement. Great utility thanks to special action. Dmg is dealt fast and while foe is in hitstun so they can't fight back until you are already gone again. Slippery to hit thanks to passive jump. Only held back by her kit being very linear. Some matchups are not good like Tech Todo. Rapid Bakugo: High Dmg, High survivability, ADHD. Is up this high because the way you play him make some matchups just auto wins against characters who can't deal with you. Usually foes must use more effort to counter you than for you to just play your game. All-Might: Really good DMG. Really good survivability. Okay utility with the ally pick up. No really bad Matchups but no gimmicks that make you auto win matchups either. No gimmicks. Effort is rewarded. Blue Toga: High Dmg potential and even better that it happens over a short timespan. Beta and gamma keep foes staggered so they can't retaliate as effectively. Time spent staggered means time not helping their allies. The ability to Clone opens up all the options one could need. Only thing keeping her here is that as she is very dodgeable and you really need to land your gamma to get blood to reset cooldowns. No downright awful matchups. Overhaul: Extremely high DMG, Great survivability, Great Utility, Little mobility means he has bad matchups into people that can abuse vertical advantage. Often forced to fight defensive fights rather than offensive ones. Not super skill intensive. Foes really need to put in extra effort in killing you or you can just heal mid fight and turn the fight around. Purple Toga: Good Dmg but far to reliant on Beta as mobility and dmg dealing tool. Alpha deals good dmg, but over a long time meaning foes can react quickly and maybe even deal more dmg in a quick burst. Still can clone people and has easier access to other people's blood than Rapid. More dependent on the RNG of who you run into in a match. A TIER Cementoss (Gatekeeper of S Tier): Cementoss has great utility, good dmg, good combo potential, and the 2nd best defensive play in the game. He has many matchups that can feel downright unlosable. I Really want to put him higher, but he is here because with more characters being hyper mobile or just spending half the game in the air, it makes Cementoss into a very reactionary character who can't keep pressure. An S tier held back by the meta. Nejire: Massive AOE that knocks down makes her a defensive wall that is hard to approach if you lack range, but if you do have range she actually isn't that hard to fight. It isn't hard to out DPS her if you are patient and even though she can float she isn't hard to track like hawks. Good survivability. Little effort required to play her well. Mostly just worry about you positioning and playing around your team as an alone Nejire is usually a dead one. Yellow Shigi: Really really good Dmg that is hard to dodge. Good survivability. Good utility of killing downed people guaranteed with little effort. Play to your strengths and you feel unbeatable, but from personal experience it can be hard to reverse a bad situation. Basically momentum is king with this one. A few bad matchups into the current meta, but many great matchups too. Momo: If you position well you can sweep games. Abuse high ground. Really good dmg. Make it very difficult for people to chase you in CQC. You can take control of a fight, but you can also have control ripped away depending on who you fight. Some really bad matchups. Really good utility with ability to make res cards, but often you are the one who finds it hardest to disengage from a losing fight too. Aizawa: High survivability, Great Dmg, Great utility, not the best matchups, and you need to put in about equal effort if not more than your foes. The issue with Aizawa is that he takes a lot of time to deal his Dmg. He can either grab you into her flurry that keeps him in place for a while or do the arial alpha for dmg which is good, but doesn't work on flying characters, and still takes a long time to actually kills someone. Taking a long time to deal Dmg means that an enemies allies can mess either you or your allies up while you are trying to deal dmg. WORSE if you are alone, you can't safely take fights, because they are too high commitment. Compress: High survivability and High Dmg, Takes a good amount of game sense. Effort is rewarded almost always. Dmg is dealt really fast. Really good utility when it comes to picking up teammates or transporting those like Momo. A really solid character, but sort of like Nejire where he relies on having a team to keep enemies distracted as landing hits on hyper mobile people is tough. Pres-Mic: Many gammas mean mobility isn't a super big issue, Can deal a lot of burst dmg, and sustain dmg. Has a stun. Just a super consistent character. Matchups aren't awful though he struggles against people that can play well defensively like Cementoss and Tech Todo. He is just consistent great dmg, but not much else. You put in about the same if not more amount of effort than enemies. Ochaco: She has good burst dmg, The 2nd best survivability imo, good utility with her Gamma and sometimes you can give float to a character than likes it too. She takes a lot of skill to actually play well in later ranks, but she only has one really bad matchup into Tech Todo I feel. When playing Ochaco, play to take advantage of mistakes foes make instead of just going in. Staying alive means you can keep bugging people into making a mistake then capitalizing. I only explain this because if you don't play her well she should. The reason she is this low in A tier is because I think she takes the most skill out of the people I put in A tier. You need a lot of effort to get more out of her than just running away. B-TIER Kaminari (Gatekeeper of A tier): Burst dmg GOAT. Can quickly reverse a bad encounter. Okay survivability. His special action is mostly useless outside of a few matchups. low skill floor, but high skill celling. Generally need to put in equal effort to foes. Gamma is THE most important tool in kit as it is both his best offensive, defensive, and escape tool. Twice: Really good Dmg, and Gamma is annoying af. Clones can put in some work, but its not reliable. Must stay in control of a fight to win by using gamma and beta well. Alpha is there to put in pressure and force foe to make a mistake. Weak against multiple people. Reliant on Gamma sort of like Denki. Good or bad Matchups not many natural. Mirio: The best survivability in the game, but super predictable when attacking. Depending on skill level you can get a lot of of this character, but it is a similar situation to Ochaco. He is in B tier because he just deals less Dmg straight up. Best played as a vulture to keep someone busy on the enemy team as a disruptor. Iida: Iida has really good dmg, but has to put himself in harms way to get that dmg. Really good at picking people off that are away from their team, but in a team fight he makes himself vulnerable. Learn to not over commit. Has down right awful matchups into some defensive walls like Tech Todo or offensive powerhouses that knockdown like strike Deku. Yellow Deku: Just a good character. He has tools that help him navigate every encounter, but is has no gimmick that helps him in matchups. Relies on pure skill no cheese. Struggles in matchups with characters that out DPS him or out manuver him. Play patient, and don't panic and you will be fine. Takes more effort than the people you are fighting usually. Endeavor: Takes more effort to play than other strike characters. You really need to pay attention to how you use your special action. Takes some of the most thought of any strike, but is reward for it with a lot of dmg. Has trouble running away, and has many bad matchups into people that are hyper mobile. Really like the indoors for spears. If his special action lasted longer he could be A tier because he really does gave good dmg, but some matchups are a massive uphill battle. You really need cover from your team to get the most out of him. Red Todo: Very consistent character. Aplha deals good Dmg and is decently easy to hit. He doesn't struggle with land based or arial opponents. Has the most trouble with being out numbered as he lacks a good way to attack while also defending. Good performance is tied to how well you can juggle times to be offensive and times to play defensive. Red Bakugo (Gatekeeper of C tier): His Dmg just go so nerfed. Still has good mobility, and Dmg potential, but his maxed out alpha deals about the same Dmg as a lv1-2 Denki alpha I think. It is absurd. You need to put in way more effort than your enemies. Would be lower, but is saved thanks to above average mobility. C-Tier Kirishima: Really good Dmg, but you put yourself in harms way to do it. Can feel like a powerhouse against unprepared opponents, but utterly helpless against others. Super matchup dependent, and more importantly location dependent. Needs way more effort to use that most others. One for All: Very floaty means dodging is harder. Okay dmg, but great utility. Bad survivability. Sort of reliant on downing a rapid character for their quirkset. Needs more effort to get good rewards. Securing a whole new quirk skill set isn't as easy as toga. Kendo: Good Dmg, good survivability in the middle of a fight thanks to strafes. Low to no survivablity when trying to run away all together. Has some SUPER good matchups into a lof of people, but also terrible matchups into a lot of people that deal a lot of Dmg at a range like Endevor. Special action is usually not super helpful (Why can't it pick up allies byking!!). Needs to be in close to deal dmg. Is the weakest to getting knocked back and interupted and the opponent can position around her easily and quickly force her into a defensive fight. Useless when overwhelmed. Can find it hard to engage without allies. Ibara: Great Dmg and Great utility, but very predictable. Really good into panicking opponents or people being distracted. Some really good matchups into people with less mobility or people that lack super armor. High cool downs means you need to be careful with attacks. Quickly run out of gas. Very easy to overwhelm and get picked off so you need your team to protect you. Needs way more effort than most characters. Mt-Lady (Gatekeeper of D rank): IMO Has THE WORST Matchup spread of any character. She is only saved by her mobility being pretty good. Her Dmg while okay takes a lot of time to dish out which means a good situation can be reversed really fast. Little range means you basically have to put yourself in the same danger as Kirishima and Iida. Special action paints the biggest target on your back and you get SUPER COUNTERED by the meta. Hawks. Like one good matchup into Tech Dabi. Only reason she ain't D is because she has mobility, and going big can be good in a small circle IF AND ONLY IF the circle doesn't have a Hawks, Nejire, Endeavor, Red Deku, Rapid Toga, Momo, Aizawa, and Ibara. Going big is exclusively a finishing tool for a fight if the fight was already going your way, OR to quickly throw pot shots of your Aplha at a fight that is far from you. D-Tier Red Shigi: The Meta has not been kind to you. You have many better matchups than Mt-Lady, BUT you have the worst matchups where it counts against the meta. Enough said really. Purple Dabi: Situational everything. A good Tech Dabi can deny foes, but that requires you playing out of your mind and the foe making dumb mistakes. All you need to beat a tech dabi is some patience to not run right into him. He can only stall. I obviously Have more to say on some others, but feel free to let me know if you agree or disagree. I feel like the most important variables in the rankings is how bad your matchups are, and how much more effort you are force to put it compared to other characters. The harder the character is, the more mistakes will be made, BUT more importantly the easier the character is the less likely you are to panic, and you have more bandwidth in your brain to make more difficult decisions easily. submitted by Ang181 to MyHeroUltraRumble [link] [comments] |

2024.11.27 00:40 gentlemangreen_ Additional info from GGG Customer Support about PoE2 Early Access keys that some of you might not know about.
Hey guys,
The following situation might not apply to everyone, but I thought I would share this information in-case some of you have been wondering like me.
So basically, if you purchase any pack on the website, the first key you purchase will get redeemed automatically, so in my case, I bought the 480$ pack and was expecting 5 keys, but what I got was 4 keys and 1 instant Early Access for my account.
I was worried I wasted a key because I should already have access through the 480$+ lifetime support of PoE1 which hasn't been given out just yet.
However customer support confirmed with me today that if you already have access to the early access by whichever means AND you also qualify for Early Access through lifetime support 480$ threshold, you will indeed *get an additional key*.
Here is the email I got:
Hey there,Hope that helps someone out there!
Thank you for getting back to us.
The first key you receive would be automatically applied to your account, as indicated at the top of the page. The Steam and Epic Keys are just to unlock the client in the respective platforms and do not grant access themselves. If you receive access again, such as from past support threshold being met, you'd receive an additional key you can give away. I hope this clarifies things for you!
If you have any other questions or concerns please let us know.
Kind regards,
JC
