Maybe don't cheat on your spouse at a Coldplay concert?

Wow. Even Horace is making fun of the MAGA base.

I just thought it was a lame attempt to gaslight himself and sound humoursly sarcastic at the same time.

“They made me a meme!”

No, bucko, you made you a meme when you ducked.

Paltrow is married to Chris Martin (lead singer of Coldplay).

Was. They divorced a decade or more ago.

[Horace]

That is a brilliant way to play this.

[Mik]

Yeah, I thought so too. It’s almost like Coldplay endorsing Astronomer in many people’s minds.

[Axtremus]

Astronomer's former CEO and former head of HR may have sinned but that should not tar the rest of Astronomer. Hopefully the rest of Astronomer will make it out of this OK.

I’ve known more high level execs that screwed around than didn’t. If we start down that puritanical road there’s just nowhere to stop. It’s the human condition.

Genius even.

The lady speaks out for the first time providing details about what happened.

TLDR:

• Both she and Andy were separated from their spouses
• That concert was the first time they were physical (hug)
• Her (estranged) husband was actually at concert on a first date too
• She's now divorced and unemployable
• He hasn't really talked to her since, and seems to be still with his wife.

Sad. Not sure why she's unemployable though. Being virally infamous for a totally legal if slightly unseemly thing doesn't seem like it should merit the economic death penalty in the job market.

Last I heard he had been pushed out not her.
