I could have guessed she’s always been desperate for attention lol.

this... she always struck me as thirsty, theater-kid energy. So not surprised, now that she got her status, fame, money and awards, I wonder if the monster is fed off or not...

[howlin_wolf_66]

I don't think that kind of monster is EVER fed... No rich person ever feels they have 'enough' money; same with attention ...

Most actors and celebs are attention-starved to various degrees. Which is why they seek these careers.

[thispaintedlife]

this was my first thought as well, at least she's being transparent about it I guess? lmao

[sweetwaterlane]

sooo many comedians too, like pathological needs to get attention/make people laugh

I eat both.
I love eating the peel of an orange after eating the orange. I generally eat my fruits and vegs with the peel, unless is something like a kiwi or an avocado.
And I save banana peels in the freezer to make vegan pulled pork.

Orange zest makes so many dishes more delicious, especially desserts, and I use bananas peels for fertilizer.

i just made banana peel "tea" for my houseplants! hoping it works better than the miracle gro i have that's probably just trash

[jojito]

Yes! I put orange and lemon peels in my tea.
I also dehydrate them and grind them to have them ready for recipes.

I blame the simpsons for this but when i was like 4 or 5 I would randomly walk into the living room and just moon my entire family.

I really just preferred to sit quietly and read as a kid.

[my_moloko]

Same.

[andisprohi]

Same. One of my sisters, though, oh boy. She snorted Pixy Stix at lunch with the other kids and ate pieces of dry dog kibble because someone dared her to.

LMAO. My youngest brother was a literal representation of Pig-Pen in school. Just absolute chaos and mess surrounding him
