To my knowledge, Grohl has never paused a show so that he could go off on a racist tirade, but at the same time, I don’t think Claptoan has ever gone out and done a bunch of benefit shows for an HIV/AIDS denial org

I was at Bluesky when I saw the photo and for a second I thought about making my joke there. But even with a footnote explanation - it wouldn’t work. Imagine telling an adrenochrome to libs at brunch. I think the best response you’d get is that they’d stare at you blankly. And then laugh at you once you where out of earshot.

According to one of the gossip subs, this was after his wife found out about the baby, and is basically him being in the dog house.

Is anyone surprised a rockstar cheats on their spouse? Why do rockstars even bother getting married?

Cobain was apparently pretty monogamous.

I think the bigger issue is the baby, rather than the affair. I’m sure lots of rock stars have wives that are open to letting their spouse fuck other people as long as 1) they keep it out of the press 2) don’t bring home an STD and 3) keep the money rolling in. Him getting someone pregnant is creating physical proof that he sleeps around on his wife, which rubs her face and his kids’ faces in it, and it also means he was probably fucking without protection.

It’s the power dynamic. A person in his position is only going to behave like everyone else thinks is OK because of social norms, but at some point those norms don’t apply. Just like no one’s surprised that Peter thiel is a suspect for his boyfriend’s death. Rich person does rich person thing and people are surprised? I just don’t get the surprise part. Grohl has probably had ridiculous amount of people throwing themselves at him his entire life, and we’re surprised that at some point he’s caved in?
