It's something people are actually probably happy to get away from, but I liked having celebrity photography and occasional gossip sprinkled into my feed.
Even if I don't care who dates who or why did someone open the door for someone, it's a nice change of mood among all the wars, depression, politics and geeky stuff. I've begun to understand why people actually follow this kind of stuff, it's good escapism.
Also a lot of the Reddit-style depreciation and self-depreciation like suicidebywords and such.
