Grimes is a terrible judge of character.

u/spoospoo43 Sep 01 '26

Yeah. She's another pea in the same pod, thinking they're way more smart than they actually are. At least Grimes has an actual talent, even if she barely uses it anymore.

24

u/LacedPozole Sep 01 '26

I've always found her manufactured. She's basically a knockoff Alice Glass with a pseudo-intellectual persona layered on top

17

u/Binary_Whispers Sep 01 '26

Besides her having musk kid, I have no idea who she is.

u/Zombiesus Sep 02 '26

This! Like at least with Grimes I don’t have to hear a constant stream of nitwits tell me how smart she is..

u/NGEFan Sep 03 '26

She is a musical genius

u/MrMcBobb Sep 04 '26

She did the theme song for Hilda

u/Automatic_Cloud1930 Sep 02 '26

Art Angels is a good album

u/PreparationExtreme86 Sep 02 '26

Old Grimes used to do live looping and playing instruments. Maybe newer Grimes feels more manufactured. At least at the time Crystal Castles and Grimes’s were very different.

u/Vaelos Sep 03 '26

I enjoyed it a lot. New stuff, no way

u/OkFineIllUseTheApp Sep 01 '26

They were perfect for each other, in that they could pass their shared brain cell between each other like a game of ping pong.

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

I think that once you get it down it's really easy to make music, it's more luck to stumble onto your unique creative process but after that it's just doing largely the same thing.

8

u/this_guy_over_here_ Sep 01 '26

I feel like that's where people get the whole "All songs from X sound the same" of course they do, they found what works and makes them money and they stuck with it. It's not complicated.

4

u/Spectre-907 Sep 01 '26

Sort of, but there is a strong element of sameness across artists. For example most top40 songs all use the same maybe 5 or so drum patterns, hell you could believably say its just the default patterns that come with a synth. Almost every country and western song ever written uses that same twin-layered offset vocal track effect and probably mentions drinking alone, trucking, days past or love lost, bonus points for name dropping a whiskey/beer/truck brand.

7

u/SmartInDisguise Sep 01 '26

That’s hilarious. For country music, you almost nailed Choosin’ Texas by Ella Langley. Like almost the exact same formula

u/BoredNuke Sep 02 '26

Every few years I get to show some redneck coworker this mash up for fun. Six identical songs. https://youtu.be/FY8SwIvxj8o?si=EewpFcRewqvtEwum

u/Spectre-907 Sep 02 '26

This is an absolute abomination thank you. I havent seen such perfect similarity since I saw that “red rose white ceiling” compendium of The Game’s freestyles.

3

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

That's what I'm saying that once you find what makes your hit if you make something that has the same patterns it will sell., I saw deadmouse create a new song in like 2 minutes, other artists can do one in an afternoon with their guitar. It's not rocket science.

u/mothfactory Sep 01 '26

It’s really easy to make terrible music, yes

2

u/BandicootOk1254 Sep 01 '26

Have you ever made a song that’s done well?

u/OkHelicopter8369 Sep 02 '26

do you make music, or are you just baselessly speculating?

u/Dry_Jellyfish641 Sep 02 '26

No, she’s just a terrible person. She loves hopping from social extremes. She literally went from Elon to Chelsea Manning. She’s just a faux intellectual scraping for relevancy.

u/Zombiesus Sep 02 '26

Sounds like Elon.

u/SkynyrdCohen Sep 02 '26

Grimes is a terrible* character.

u/mamadou-segpa Sep 02 '26

Shes also just a terrible person lol.

Pro billionaires, Pro AI, defending sexual harrassement

Yeah she’s insanely out of touch with reality but you still dont end up “accidently” dating a billionaire nazi

6

u/Honda_TypeR Sep 01 '26

I’m 100% sure it was the money she loved.

5

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

no she's a little weird she would have fallen for his quirks he looks way more disgusting now too back then a lot of people still thought of him as the real life iron man

u/jessexpress789 Sep 02 '26

Grimes is a terrible person

123

u/No-Blueberry-1823 Sep 01 '26

hey fuck face. Hitler was person of the year. So was Stalin and Putin. it is not the flex you think it is. It is just a measure of influence. You are a shitty person and have had a huge shitty influence, thankfully your drama with trump has hurt that .

u/skelo Sep 01 '26

I was also person of the year

u/karlfeltlager Sep 01 '26

Hate to breaks it to you but I don’t think he’s offended being compared to Hitler.

u/Full-Hyena4414 Sep 01 '26

Hate to break it to you but I don't think op is Elon Musk

11

u/Inswagtor Sep 01 '26

Yes it is Elon, the username is the name of one of his kids

3

u/commiscowboy Sep 01 '26

Does Elon know they are his kids?

6

u/No-Blueberry-1823 Sep 01 '26

Me either. I was throwing a shot in the dark at Elon because I'm too lazy to post it on the shithole formerly known as Twitter

1

u/MrDanMaster Sep 02 '26

Yeah bro I think Elon has respect for all those guys

u/clickclackyisbacky Sep 01 '26

Do you think Musk posted this?

5

u/No-Blueberry-1823 Sep 01 '26

What?

0

u/clickclackyisbacky Sep 01 '26

You start with 'hey fuck face' and continue like you're talking to Musk. You understand this is screenshot of a tweet from 2022? You're not responding to the tweet.

You posted the equivalent of buying a 'Hey Liberal Snowflake' shirt and wearing it to a gun-show in Idaho.

5

u/No-Blueberry-1823 Sep 01 '26

Well I posted it on Reddit where I certainly expect a lot of commentary, that's for sure lmao

u/AdGullible5804 Sep 01 '26

I wouldn't be surprised.

u/ZerglingsNA Sep 01 '26

you forgot tunnels and solar tile houses, people can’t even keep up with his broken promises and abandoned businesses

2

u/Spectre-907 Sep 01 '26

Dont forget DA HYPALOOP. Remember the hyperloop? Remember how he got california to axe their expansion to public transit because THE HYPERLOOP®️?? And his companies had a boost of investment thanks to the expectation of Hyperloop™️? then he hyperlooped right back to the part of the plan where nobody is planning to build THE HYPERLOOP©️

29

u/Familiar-Regular-531 Sep 01 '26

The thing is he didnt change & she didnt love him. She loved his narcissistic false self...

15

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

He changed, he was never so extreme on the right. The major car companies felt threatened by tesla and organised a meeting with biden excluding musk and tesla even though tesla was at the top of car sales in the country, he felt betrayed and then started with the superpac that he gave to trump.

Not to excuse his behavior afterwards and he's never been generous but we can't just ignore that either. Most of the most extreme figures were pushed in some way, stalin couldn't feed his people, hitlers country was dying under wwI sanctions and putin well putin is just stupid, he's just really desperate to stay in power

6

u/Haunting-Ad788 Sep 01 '26

He got butthurt Biden didn’t invite him to some green energy event.

3

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

biden did invite the car companies that have lobbied against it for so long, it's not a good look at least

4

u/Inswagtor Sep 01 '26

Source on the car sales claim pls

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

https://en.eeworld.com.cn/news/qrs/eic548730.html If you scroll down you can see model y and model s in #1 and second place

https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/story/2021-08-05/biden-holds-event-touting-evs-tesla-top-u-s-seller-of-evs-is-not-invited?utm_source=chatgpt.com

This is a news article describing the event for those unfamiliar, bloomberg covered it but I don't have subscription.

The gist is that biden called a meeting about clean cars and then didn't invite the companies that were in front of that movement.

7

u/dsmith422 Sep 01 '26

Tesla wasn't invited because of its stance on unions. The meeting was not just to promote clean cars. It was to promote union labor and its role in constructing electric cars. Tesla is anti-union, so it was not invited. The big three and the leadership of the UAW were invited because they are pro union.

2

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

When he did that he really revealed his cards though, these were legacy automakers who never supported clean car initiatives despite having been able to and way before tesla was even a thing.

I believe that was the turning point that radicalized Musk whether it was fair or not

3

u/dsmith422 Sep 01 '26

I would argue Covid shut downs had already radicalized Musk, but that snub definitely did piss off Elon.

5

u/Econmajorhere Sep 01 '26

Perhaps that was the initial catalyst but the Covid lockdowns and his kid going trans is often considered the reason he lost his mind. Rather than talking to/raising his kids he became convinced the liberal agenda brainwashed his children to change their gender.

2

u/Abject-Job7825 Sep 01 '26

Oh yeah for sure his kid being trans was another big reason

2

u/Slow-Hawk4652 Sep 02 '26

mm no. i was upset when he posted a photo with a pistol and stuff....in 2022. so after that i was sure he is fd.

8

u/Naryanope Sep 01 '26

Honestly based on the naming convention selected for her offspring, she got caught up in the sci-fi dream/martian royalty hareem promise he clearly wooed her with. It happens to the best of us.

Then she came down to earth, and realised what we all knew; while he was slime, it wasn’t of the extra-terrestrial variety.

1

u/Downtown-Bag-6026 Sep 02 '26

She loved money.

8

u/Pop-Pop68 Sep 01 '26

Good PR people can do wonders can’t they? Let them speak for you Elon because people react badly to your face and personality. People may think you a fool when you keep silent but when you open your mouth they know it.

6

u/RedBirdOnASnowyDay Sep 01 '26

I can’t imagine having the ability to do so much good in the world and instead acting like a comic book villain.

Here’s a pro tip: Elon we know you want to be remembered forever. Your narcissism is clear. But there’s a way you could ensure your legacy as a beloved human rather than a festering d*ck. You could do good things. You could promote the arts and end hunger and be a humanitarian. But instead you sold your soul. No one likes you.

1

u/MrHim99 Sep 01 '26

Couldn't have said this better love. Yeh it really breaks my heart that this guy has a awesome mission in his mind and the drive to actually get it done I mean he's just in charge with the money at this point and an inspiration to others like me...but he's just an asshole and villain with this dumbass backwards decision making politically, ethically and morally.

You would think someone who's autistic and whatever mental disability he has would make him an actual force for good against corruption but he's just turned into Darth Vader/Tyrell Wellick/Weyland Yutani.

2

u/RedBirdOnASnowyDay Sep 01 '26

Um. We also need to remember that he’s a blatant racist, throws nazi salutes, interfered with an election, pillaged our government, has produced untold numbers of progeny, disowned his eldest daughter…. I could go on. He’s not a good person but we can hold out the hope that he will change and do something good in this world as opposed to being a marvel comic book joke of a villain. No one likes you Elon. No one. You have no friends unless you pay them.

0

u/MrHim99 Sep 01 '26

Hence the reason I said politically, ethically & morally bankrupt dear 😉. Even his past lovers couldn't change him. Maybe their love for him made him more entitled and...eh idk...I think ppl like him billionaires and trillionares or whatever-ares don't think they turn back to actually being a force for good by actually proving it with their actions. It's all business I know to keep the money flowing but doesn't have to be all like "Fuck em ppl, ty for your tax dollars losers 😆". But can actually be the opposite but...oh well...maybe it'll give me or someone else the chance to right his wrong one day hopefully before I'm gone.

u/SuccessSharp3096 Sep 01 '26

u/E-rotten Sep 02 '26

It’s something that was earned

u/Well_Thought_Opinion Sep 02 '26

Musk was once a fringe rich guy. But ever since he started showing up on the fortunes top billionaire list, people started to hate him and he came the target of far left.

u/HotDogFingers01 Sep 01 '26

"Person" of the Year? So you DO believe in gender neutral pronouns?

2

u/macumazana Sep 01 '26

well, you cant say he is a man of a year since he's just half a man he used to be

3

u/ExtensionInformal911 Sep 01 '26

He does realize the "man of the year" is about being influential, not a good person or well liked?

3

u/Ok_Commission_9203 Sep 01 '26

We figured out he's not actually a person.

u/Formal-Revolution-74 Sep 01 '26

u/Relevant_Winter_7098 Sep 01 '26

"Person of the Year" has always had the caveat that it doesn't mean they are well liked. It just means they have outaized influence in public life.

2

u/Organic_Rough4433 Sep 01 '26

12 months ago grimes started dating musk to afvance her music career. I dint believe for a second anyone loved this emotionless drone. I dont believe anyone has ever truly loved musk. Even his mother. If they've "loved" him its because they loved their perception of him. Once he proves he's a garbage human they eventually all leave. Hes a worthless human.

u/hdn3007 Sep 01 '26

u/Strict-Promotion6703 Sep 01 '26

I’ll say it again. Shut up Elon. Your credibility means nothing after so many broken promises. It’s called just deserts.

2

u/fcsuper Sep 01 '26

Person of the Year doesn't mean you are the favorite person. It just means you are one of the most influential that year. And, no "influential" doesn't connote favorable or good.

u/redcheri69es Sep 01 '26 edited Sep 01 '26

“Person of the Year” doesn’t necessarily mean loved or even liked. It is for the person who got the most and biggest headlines.
Putin was PotY in 2007 and the editors explicitly said it was not an endorsement of his totalitarian tactics. Same goes for the Dear Pedo Golfer in 2016 and 2024. Hitler was “Man of the Year” in 1938 for getting the most headlines because of the Munich Conference and annexing Austria (his actual birthplace), again not an endorsement.
Gandhi was MotY in 1930 for his role in the Indian independence movement and advocating peaceful demonstration/resistance. While Mother Teresa was never PotY.
Until 1999 it was “Man of the Year” though women had been receiving the “Man of the Year” title since Wallis Simpson, in 1936, for the amount of headlines/attention she got for taking down a King (probably not an endorsement either).
