    I feel like I've heard the name before but this year it seems to be much more prominent.

    Yes, it's extraordinarily distasteful.

    My distaste for billionaires has gone from "high" to "stratospheric" in the last 5 years or so. Quite incredible really.

    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.

    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 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.

    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”.

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

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

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

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

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

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

    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
