“The nepo babies y’all should be worrying about are the ones working for legal firms, the ones working for banks, and the ones working in politics, if we’re talking about real world consequences and robbing people of opportunity.” https://t.co/jrocx0bQDR

vulture is a site that writes about the entertainment business, why would they write about lawyer nepo babies?

also they showed the tiers of nepotism nicely and i can't believe how people still don't get it. nobody is saying timothee chalamet is on the same level as dakota johnson, but if your parents work in any way in the entertainment business you still have some kind of connections compared to your average person

i care about nepo babies in other industries, too. not to brag, but i can care about multiple things at once.

So then why join the same industry that denied you a childhood?

[mwffj]

And marry a guy who is also in the industry!

[theactualworst]

And have kids!

[squirrels_oh_no]

And pretty likely her children will follow her into the industry given how many people in their lives are in the industry.
