Why’s the news so negative all the time? I want to hear about when a beloved actor or musician is born! It seems like they’re only dying. 😔

I feel like we often do 🤔 Celebrities publicize their newborns and children. Those children are then pushed into it/take up whatever their parents became famous for and might also find fame... Which is kind of unfortunate in some ways due to how exploitative the entertainment industry is to children.

Pretty sure they make a big freaking deal in England about every royal baby (at least those directly in line for the throne).

On Earth, just about everyone experiences linear time. We don’t know if a baby is going to be famous until they grow up and do stuff.

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 10 points 2 weeks ago

Why, are they stupid?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 6 points 2 weeks ago

Thoughts and prayers for just about everyone on Earth. That must be so hard for you.

[–] No_Money_Just_Change@feddit.org 4 points 2 weeks ago

I knew you would post that

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah but like ZERO famous people have been born in the last ten years!!

Also out of character… come on Hollywood, come up with a new name. That’s hilarious how many of that movie there are.

Nice try TMZ, you just wanna know when they're naked.

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

People magazine called George Clooney the sexiest man alive despite the fact that he was once a tiny baby. Disgusting.

Pedophile oligarchy confirmed.

What you on about? They announce it all the time! Some even do it multiple times. Some don’t ever shaddap about it.

They didnt even announce Einstein when he was born... :/

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Outrage sells. They don't care about the stories that make you happy.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Uhh, PBS once broadcast a live child vaginal birth.

There was no background music nor narration.

We watched, for over an hour. Real deal birth.

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just some random person? I’d be up for watching Jim Carrey being born or someone like that… could be funny.

[–] backalleycoyote@lemmy.today 4 points 2 weeks ago

Well isn’t it your lucky day! In fact it was Jim Carrey.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Well, we do see news about celebrations of their birth.
