WOW! Taylor Swift gave Keshas 250K to help with legal fees! Go, Taylor!! Taylor taking Kesha's side just makes Sony look worse in this than they already do. Add this to the fact that not one person that has worked with Dr. Luke has spoken up in support of him........... Sony can't be very happy. My hope is that this continues to escalate and Sony, in an attempt to save face, has no choice but to give Kesha her freedom and lets her out of her contract. In 2014 katie perry said Kesha's claims were "sour grapes." I guess katie had not experienced abuse from dr luke, so couldn't believe he would be abusive. She worked with him but was not signed to his kemosabe label, so different position than that in which kesha found herself. peace&love

Yes they were Nov 6th 2011......... that thread is 141 pages of nail biting waiting, freaking the fuck out when first seeing his lone silhouette...... and then squeeing from every corner of the fandom. It was absolutely epic. atop.proboards.com/thread/549/ema-queen-takeover-special-guestDecember 9th doesn't stand out as anything earth shattering that I can think of. Thanks, Ladies, and thanks for posting the link... So, what were you all doing here on the 9th Dec?? Without looking it up, I think Dec. 9 was the release of BTIKM or something. It had to do with TP album.

No, the EMAs were November 6th, 2011. So what was December 9th, 2011? Yes they were Nov 6th 2011......... that thread is 141 pages of nail biting waiting, freaking the fuck out when first seeing his lone silhouette...... and then squeeing from every corner of the fandom. It was absolutely epic. atop.proboards.com/thread/549/ema-queen-takeover-special-guestDecember 9th doesn't stand out as anything earth shattering that I can think of. The biggest night on line unfortunately got lost on the old board that died, before Q3 could rescue things.It was Dec. of 2010 and was EPIC! The Grammy Nomination! Should be easy to figure out what dec 9 2011 was. BTIKM might be a good guess though!

cassie, thank you for stepping in and addressing this issue. I absolutely agree that stepping away is one solution, and one I have used. All of the below my opinion only, YNNV and feel free to scroll if necessary. I would like to see included in the solution the reminder that this is communication done without the benefit of visual interpretation or clarification. I think part of the solution also lies with posters being kind when expressing their opinions. I don't think that anyone would disagree with the right to free speech and the right to have and express an opinion. I think what sometimes hurts or offends or results in a sharp response is the tone of the opinion rather that the opinion itself. Both parties in an interaction bear responsibility for the interaction, IMO. The reader and the writer, the person with an opinion and the person responding. ........ Really not preaching, and I'm sorry if it seems so. I think communicating well is something most people struggle with, me too, but I sure recognize and appreciate a kind communicator when I encounter one, and try to learn. And this forum really means something to me, and it would lovely for it to feel safe and welcoming for all. You make a very good point. In an effort to keep this place kind and encouraging, each of us can contribute when we post. If I may expound a bit, here are a few tips to keep in mind. 1. When about to fire off a passionate, vehement post take a few minutes. Brew a calming cup of tea. Pet a dog/cat. ATop will still be there. Then, write your response off line where you can hold it for a bit, and reread it after the adrenaline has dissipated from your body. At that time, after review and editing if necessary, it can be copied and pasted it into a forum post. 2. As Adam learned in "Drunk Tweets Anonymous", don't post when drunk or mad. Put it down. 3. State clearly that the opinion is your own. Phrases like "I think", "I feel" and "it seems to me" help. 4. In general, use "I" statements, and avoid saying "YOU" did or said so-and-so. "I" makes it your opinion. "YOU" can sound accusatory or personal. 5. Be careful with humor and sarcasm. They frequently do not come across in print as intended. When choosing a cleverly snarky reply, make generous use of emojis and other graphics to signal the intent. 6. Keep in mind that many members and readers are not native speakers of English, and/or not from the same country/culture as you. 7. Is it kind? Is it helpful? Is it glittery, golden and Adam-centric? When in doubt, hit the "delete" key. We are not negotiating nuclear arms treaties or auditioning for the next Supreme Court Justice position. 8. We all like a little support, praise and empathy. We all come here for Adam news to lift our spirits and maybe escape from the trials and challenges of the real world. Find opportunities to share the love.

Just a little info: Tomorrow I will post the birthday cakes a few hours later than usual! A few minutes ago we spontaneously decided to book a little trip to the North Sea today with an overnight stay but I'll be back home tomorrow during the day! Enjoy ! Aww, thank you, csimms4! We are already back home but we had a nice time in St. Peter-Ording yesterday and this morning, although the weather wasn't that good! Oh no, I just read the sad news about your beloved pet! I'm so sorry for your loss! Sending you a big hug!

Oh no, I just read the sad news about your beloved pet! I'm so sorry for your loss! Sending you a big hug! csimms4, I'm so sorry for your loss! *Big hug* I lost my beloved cat 1,5 year ago. He was 24,5 years old. I'm still grieving him very much. He passed away 1 day before I started my trip to New York and QAL MSG. Queen and Adam comforted me but I still miss my beloved companion so much. Here is his photo:
