- sirsinsalot 4y agoI'm not sure I'd take advice from someone who has time and again shown themselves to be an utterly toxic human being.
- CamelRocketFish 4y agoHow so?
- IshKebab 4y agoI got curious (no idea who she is) but this article has some details: https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/jun/22/amanda-palmer-visionary-egotist-interview https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/jun/22/amanda-palmer-... Basically seems like a kind of annoying attention seeker. I wouldn't say toxic though.
- helmholtz 4y ago> https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/jun/22/amanda-palmer- https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/jun/22/amanda-palmer-... So, she seems quite alright then. A bit egotistical, perhaps not the wisest with the 1.2M USD, a bit 'arty', but nothing toxic indeed.
- 6stringmerc 4y agoA rich person offering to pay you in hugs for your artistic performance skills is disgusting on a base level. It just is, and that’s her best claim to fame.
- rpastuszak 4y agoI'm not sure what you're talking about, but the advice itself seems useful, regardless of the messenger. There's nothing inherently toxic about it. I met her a few years ago and she seemed like a friendly, kind person. And, that didn't make me agree with the content of the video more.
- williamcotton 4y agoAnonymous commenters throwing shade are much more toxic as you are never held accountable for your actions.
- 6stringmerc 4y agoAmanda Palmer is easily seen through her own actions as a selfish, out of touch and pretentious to the point of deserving banishment to a deserted island a la Napoleon, but she has Neil Gaiman’s ring and bank account so they both get to live in their own reality / cesspool.
