Hey Matthew, we've been a huge supporter of pride for many years and as it's Pride month, we wanted to show our appreciation and support to the community 😊! We're not laying people off, I think you're getting us confused with Royal Mail, they're a separate company 🌈 - Courtney

I’m popular because I write good songs and I’m talented and perform high energy hour and a half shows filled with love. The only person who needs to do better is you. Keep my name out ya mouth & look in the mirror before you come for me. Here’s the attention you ordered 😏
#Lizzo popular is because there is an obesity epidemic in America. Rather than encouraging people to do better, we are simply lying to them and telling them that they are just fine the way they are. Unfortunately, Many of these people are dying from diabetes and heart disease

A sad day for a very @RealGrumpyCat . Thanks for the years of inspiration, sweet Tardar Sauce. Sending so much love to her family, losing a pet so suddenly is horrible.
