Glad he pulled over cause my ass has sobbed over a breakup while driving on the freeway and it’s not safe tbh!

[doriiansz]

Pls don't Euphoria your life, bb. Stay safe ♥️

[alienjive]

Thanks bb. I didn’t get out the car and make a run for it like Miss Rue Rue but sometimes when “If You’re Not the One” by Daniel Bedingfeld pops up on your shuffle right after your bf dumped you and moved away you just gotta cry it out!

[doriiansz]

Now that's a tune!

But remember whenever you feel like that you need to tell yourself I GOTTA GET THROUGH THIS!

[moddchicc]

The way ONTD collectively sobbed over this divorce announcement is forever etched in my memory

[josiefier]

I would like to be excluded from this narrative as I don't care about either one of them

[mila_s_garden]

The only thing I remember is that the divorce was a blind item and people here guessed it but they were hoping it was the usual bs.

[vivalakeyana]

Lmao I always think about that whenever I see news about either of them.

[doriiansz]

Imagine how painful it was for Jessica Walter when you and your dumbass male AD castmates instead of showing grace and support, you dared to lecture her, knowing damn well she was hurt. Fuck you.

[doriiansz]

I can't stand him. I'm still pissed about it.

[erin805]

Yes! When he did that interview recently saying he “stayed at the party too long” like mf’r please, you just outed yourself AGAIN, the fact that Alia Shawkat at her considerably younger age had more grit to say no this isn’t ok says everything

[lucifersam]

they've been able to keep it classy since they split up, right? don't recall hearing about any messiness (in regards to their divorce/co-parenting)

[marywebgirl]

Amy refused to talk about it in her book. She didn’t just ignore it she flat said she wasn’t going to say anything about it.

[erin805]

Good for her, that’s the classy thing to do for your kids

[anterrabre]

“People talk about you like they know you and they talk about your relationship as if they know what’s going on. So imagine how weird that is. It’s brutal with any relationship, and we have kids, and without getting into specifics, you then see stuff online, like, this one journalist wrote: ‘I’m Team Amy.’ I’m like: ‘You’re a grown person. What are you talking about? This is a breakup. This is a family. This isn’t some game.’”

I see this a lot in the Olivia Munn/that dude who knocked her up/his wife posts and I completely agree with this.

[dnttllhrry]

The way people talk about their relationship is so weird to me. Like none of you guys have any idea what actually happened for them to break up. All you see is what they post on IG. John and Olivia seem very happy together.

I always file that under weird white people news.

[pikapika217]

also, the whole time line of that seems to suggest they had been separated for a while and there are rumors he was partying it up with random women before he met Olivia. The projection would make even a little sense if he went from Anna to Olivia but that's not what happened and I do think people are using it to justify a hatred of her. Before this it was because she was an alleged beard to someone and before that it was something else. Even when she spoke out against that assaulter that she unknowingly made a movie with - he was the director's friend - the posts were tinged with a 'I don't like her but I support this/her doing this'. Like?!?!
