So good! |
Gitano means a lot of thigs in Spain. First of all is a minority ethnic group (gypsis). Which, by the way, suffers a lot of discrimination in Spain and all the world in general. It also can be a dress, the flamenco costume/dress. And also can be (bc like I said, the gypsies suffer from prejudice and discrimination) a slur. If you said to someone "you are very gitano" its definitely not a good thing, at least you're calling him trickster or something like that. Or if you said about someone that "seems like a gitano" probably you are saying that she/he is dirty and careless. So...Even being Spanish, it is wrong to use the word gypsy or their culture. In the end, it is cultural appropriation. In fact, Rosalía herself has been criticized for this. And she is Spanish. It is a bit more complicated in Andalusia, where it is more normal to have gypsy roots or family and where both cultures (Andalusian and Gypsy) share similarities. Due to a question of appropriation of the gypsy culture that comes from far back, but it is another very extensive issue ... Anyway, if an Spanish person should not use for their benefit this kind of references DEFINITELY a girl from boston much less. Although she dances flamenco. |
Can you link to it? |
Yes! The EH story is nuts. And The Shrink Next Door. I liked The Missing Crypto Queen podcast too. |
| Swindled is a good podcast. Covers a wide array of con artists. |
Me too! Elizabeth was a time sink for me too, so no Hillary's no different. There were several documentaries made about Elizabeth, there must be so many of us cat people to watch them. (ha ha). Did you read about the Anna Sorokin one? That was crazy too. |
Won't let me. Search "She's my neighbor: HilariaBaldwin on Reddit |
I don't find Hillary at all attractive, but she's not horrible looking. I don't think she is suffering at all, she seems narcissistic. The reaction she had was so odd, a classic symptom. |
Reddit links don’t last long here. Just search Hilara Baldwin and you’ll see the sub. The neighbor is the second post down (pinned) if you’re on the default sort by hot. |
It worked for me to cut and paste exactly that into the search bar. First result. All the she is so kind post lead me back to thinking that she did this solely as a ploy to land a rich man. Maybe Alec all along. Maybe she was tying it on and Alec was the richest guy who truly fell for it (and the persona) so she just kept digging and eventually (one, two? kids in) he caught on and perpetuating it was equally important to his ego and wallet and both figured they were better off doubling down than backing away from the lie. |
Yup, I was astonished by his takedown of Mother Teresa; I had no idea. |
Link? Thanks! |
PP here. Thanks! I'm obviously new to the DCUM. Thank you to all the regular DCUMers who have been so gracious to transients like me. |
Ooh, had not heard of it! Subscribed! I forgot to mention Chameleon: the hollywood con queen was fun |
NarcSite.com does profiles of people he finds that matches Narcissistic personality disorder. He has some really good ones. You have to look for people by name. |
