  • If you’re talking about the live show they did in LA, then yeah, she struggled there. I personally think she’s been doing much better now that the tour is underway.

    She’s not there to replace Chester, and I appreciate how much she lets the crowd sing his songs. As Mike put it, we’re the ones standing in for Chester. Emily is just a new addition ❤️

    People are going way too hard on that shit. The most recent link to Scientology is a picture from 2013. The Masterson stuff she released a statement saying she attended the preliminary hearing, but dissociated from him when the evidence came to light.

    She has avoided talking about Scientology but I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt for now. They are a seriously scary bunch to deal with and I wouldn’t blame her for not directly denouncing them in fear of what they may do. We’re talking about a corrupt organisation which actively destroys the lives of its dissenters without remorse.

    I’m sure Mike would not vibe well with a genuine rape apologist and mental health denier given Chester’s past. At the end of the day, even if I don’t trust Emily 100%, I trust Mike Shinoda, and if he says she’s cool, then I’m willing to believe him.










  • To be fair, it is useful in some regards.

    I’m not a huge fan of Amazon, but last time I had an issue with a parcel it was sorted out insanely fast by the AI assistant on the website.

    Within literally 2 minutes I’d had a refund confirmed. No waiting for people to eventually pick up the phone after 40 minutes. No misunderstanding or annoying questions. The moment I pressed send on my message it instantly started formulating a reply.

    The truncated version went:

    “Hey I meant to get [x] delivery, but it hasn’t arrived. Can I get a refund?”

    “Sure, your money will go back into [y] account in a few days. If the parcel turns up in the meantime, you can send it back by dropping it off at [z]”

    Done. Absolutely painless.
