If it was a “noise scene,” 100% of them were edgelords, proud of their collection of GG Allin videos and imported Merzbow books.

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸

You can’t quantify human existence in Excel. People are not outliers and edge cases. They are people. Some shit has to be done with data due to sheer volume, but if you treat them as JUST data points and say things like “loud voices that aren’t representative,” you’re denying their existence.
I think statistics are more important than personal anecdotes tbh.
