Museums and art are important. It’s a big successful fundraiser for art historians, and in that respect I think it’s great. Vibes-wise it’s fucking rancid though. An indulgent, tone deaf celebration of wealth that ultimately benefits a good cause.

We could raise money for art without decadent rich people parties if we just like stopped hoovering up all the money and giving it to rich people.

I mean yeah but Heidi Klum dressing like a statue and scaring other attendees by pretending to be an exhibit is very funny to me

I thought "soandso" was an actual name lmao

[-] thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Move over Zendaya - there’s a hip, new mononym in town!

[-] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Right up there with whatsherface and theuglyone.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

i have been trying to decide on my latest stage name (my first garage band was called "Some Band" to give you an idea of what kind of creativity we're working with here) and i've added Soandso and Whatstheirface as a last name to the "oh gods this will make my wife roll her eyes" list so thank you all kindly for your help.

[-] TachyonTele@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

Lame names are the best titles you can give yourself

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

i was inspired both by E B White and Randy Bachman

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Blatant cheerleader erasure

[-] qarbone@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Just mispronounce it a bit. It could work

It’s really confusing because it’s actually twins, Soh and Zho, but they never appear together and you never know which one is which. Former twitch streamers, they now perform 10sec long shoegaze/dubstep inspired trick-hop in the secret twin language they invented as children with a smattering of Victorian era slang, and it’s only available on the Glut app. You have no idea what any of this means but have realized this is why your 11yo keeps babbling “trickie burr, trickie burr”.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 months ago

I really did too

The problem isn't design, art, wonder and occasional luxury. The problem is wealth distribution.

[-] finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

One good thing about it: None of the Trumps were invited.

[-] CultLeader4Hire@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

It was an entertaining 10 minutes of looking through the outfits, there wasn’t much I liked h this year but fashion is a perfectly valid interest.

[-] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 2 months ago

NooOoOO fashion is only for shallow dummies that aren't like meeeeeeeee

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

We should keep idolizing the wealthy. That seems to be working out well.

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Filthy rich circle jerk.

[-] DrSoap@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

They seem to be begging people to watch it. Lol the more advertising there is for a thing, the less I want to do it. I think the begging is so tacky.

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 8 points 2 months ago

I wanted to know who skipped the event after Bezos got involved but I found out it's Zendaya and Lady Gaga and I realized I don't really give a fuck.

[-] phoenixarise@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Who gives a shit about the Bezos party?

[-] fedikitty@piefed.social 6 points 2 months ago

It was really just the corporate gala this year.

[-] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

That's all it ever has been.

[-] moopet@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

I assume this is something in the news, but I don't even know what the met gala is.

[-] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

If something happens and you don't notice or care is it really news?

[-] restingOface@quokk.au 1 points 2 months ago

Does the pope shit in the woods?

[-] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Does he wipe his ass with a bear or a bunny?

[-] Inucune@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Art is for times of peace. We are currently fighting a class war.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Struggle has produced the best art . These people are just tacky

[-] cheat700000007@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Hey, wait, this isn't a shit post

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

if the kids in the shallow pool crowded into the deep end, the deep end would be filled with drowned bodies, so let the shallow kids stay in the shallow end out of the deep divers way

[-] neuromorph@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago
