No One Should Idolize Celebrities.
No one realizes it, but celebrities are among the most insecure people out there. Most celebrities are in need of constant validation and have to continuously morph themselves into what others want them to be, just to stay relevant. Aside from their glamorous image, behind the scenes their lives consist of constantly having to ‘put on’ and create fake drama in order to harness a temporary reaction from their audience.
It’s normal to seek inspiration from successful people who influence fashion, art, music or a more successful, desired lifestyle, but to idolize or model yourself after a total stranger just because they’re aesthetically pleasing, rich or popular, is a big no no. Not only are you wasting time warped in an illusion, you’re literally getting scammed by being over-invested in their fake drama and lives (the illusion they show you on social media).
Remember with fame, not all that glitters is gold. These people are not always how they present themselves to be. Take celebrities off the pedestal and instead of obsessing over them, invest your time and energy into your own life.

Had a hard time stopping myself from overthinking this one, but I think we're finally there:
Pick a song from a bad description! You do not have to recognize any of the songs to vote. Just go by vibes. Pick whichever seems funniest to you. Or most relatable. Or whatever floats your yacht. At the end of the week, I will put all the songs in order from the song with the least amount of votes to the song with the most amount of votes, and share the playlist with you.
If you would like to hear the playlist when I'm done, leave a comment or put it in the tags of your reblog (or just write it in the reblog, whatever) and I will tag you when it's finished. If you're too curious and you just have to know about a song, send me an ask and I will answer.
Also, please reblog! The more votes I get, the less ties I get. (Usually. Last time we had three ties. Maybe all the descriptions were just that good, IDK.) But reblog it anyway. Inflict my weird music taste on your friends, followers, and mutuals. It'll be a good time.
Oh, and for those unfamiliar, let Get Smart! teach you how to frug.

i hate to say it but this is a consequence of not being very "well read" so to speak. if you make a deliberate effort to broaden your horizons, you will become familiar with several distinct genres incidentally just by looking around

WHY ONLY B&W? 📸
— Elvis photographies by Alfred Wertheimer
Up until now I though, probably you too, that B&W was the only way to go in the 50s when it comes to photography, but no, it wasn't. So, why having photographed Elvis so much, A. Wertheimer did never experiment with color photography?
There's a reason.
Autographed copy "Elvis '56: In the Beginning" by Alfred Wertheimer. Source: archive.org
"During a review of my photo contact sheets at RCA Victor, Anne [Fulchino] asked me to cover Elvis on Steve Allen's new TV show. She said that even though Elvis was getting a lot of bad press, he was really a sweet boy. So she wanted some "nice" pictures. I was never encouraged to use color film to photograph Elvis. Although Anne had confidence that Elvis would make it, other people at RCA didn't think he would last for more than six months. Shooting color was expensive, black and white was all that was necessary." — Alfred Wertheimer.
— Excerpt from "Elvis '56: In The Beginning" by Alfred Wertheimer
Elvis Presley is pictured with Anne Fulchino, publicist for RCA Victor's Pop Records Division, waiting for the elevator at CBS Studio 50 in New York City on Saturday, March 17, 1956. She hired Alfred Wertheimer to photograph EP for the first time on March 17, 1956.
