…lots of people have heard of Mandy Moore, she isn’t someone who is just known in America…she has a long career since the 90’s but has more recently been in one of the most successful TV series, This is Us, which has been nominated for and won multiple awards and ran for 6 seasons…

…to be fair to the wealthy celebrities who have lost their homes in the fire…whenever there is a disaster, they’re some of the first to organise fundraising events and to highlight the help needed to rally help from others…and when they do, they often get criticism for that…oh, there they are in their ivory towers/type thing and how condescending/they have no idea…but with this, they’re experiencing and have every idea of how it feels to lose their homes and so many belongings with personal attachment…and they’re still getting that criticism of…oh, well they can rebuild so much more easily…of course they can, but they’re still feeling a loss…of the ‘regular and everyday people’ who have lost their homes…some will be in a better financial position than others and that’s just the way of it but it doesn’t take away that the loss of a home and memories and much loved possessions etc in it is the loss of a home and memories and memories and much loved possessions in it no matter who the owner or occupant…one of the privileges that the wealthy celebrities have is that they’re in a position going forward to help raise funds for those impacted who don’t have that wealth…

The only things of real value is the life of humans and animals

Living in houses that are the size of warehouses does not make you a good person it makes you the problem with the world in general

Of course I sympathise with the rich but I suppose just as they seem out of touch with everyday people I suppose I can't relate to them that much either most of the times. Whilst the fire was happening, one of them asked if anyone knew of private firefighters that could keep his house safe while the rest burned down. He took down the tweet because he got backlash.

Fundraising is great, I see some celebrities are already doing it. But who is pouring into the fundraisers? The public.


If we shouldn't judge celebrities like Heidi Montag for forcing tears on camera then Meghan and Harry shouldn't be judged for actually helping and pouring into some of their own funds
