You guys, stop it! Just yesterday, Arianna Grande told us all to "be really careful" (and no doubt "mindful"), and stop talking about the obvious - that she and Cynthia Erivo are vanishing before our eyes, much like, eons ago, Calista Flockhart and Lara Flynn Boyle were turning into skeletor swizzle sticks. I know you remember.  Only now it's coming to us with a giant heap of "non-demi curious semi-binary" nonsense, which I suppose is the kEwL KiDs way to say, "We're really good friends but don't finger-bang."
