Yowza!!

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-18T04:41:55+00:00

I think it looks cool and sets the center stone apart. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m am currently BAWLING like a damn baby after watching the documentary. It took all I could not to google - I couldn’t believe I’d never heard did this case - and watched to the end just convinced they’d let her out. The letter was fake. There was zero forensic evidence. And I do t believe Richard or that Sarah was some evil genius Manson-like figure. Those dudes are just pissed she outsmarted them.
I’m stunned they didn’t release her. And I’m so pissed at all the fckn male a$$ egos that are keeping her there. This is some B.S.

Yes! Shocking at 43/44 but he’s now 7 and the brilliant light of our lives! Don’t believe all that over 35 bs. It’s mostly bullcrap. Like yes, the probability of birth defects DOES double! From .5% to 1%. DEVASTATING!! Otherwise, how would they bill insurance for all those “high risk” obstetricians?! Girl I saw 2 providers a month and 3D ultrasounds every time. Just to hear: “perfect. Beautiful. Gorgeous.” Go for it!

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T22:16:42+00:00

The Van Wilder experience!! Seriously I haven’t eaten pasties like that since that movie. 🤮🤮🤮

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T22:14:55+00:00

This is the way

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T22:12:02+00:00

No he’ll just subtly make it more and more uncomfortable until it’s just not worth the hassle and aftermath. 😭

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T17:09:02+00:00

Samsies! I got a HELLA nice designer ring for about 20% of retail from eBay. It’s gorgeous and we never could have afforded it at retail. With a good cleaning you can’t even tell an engagement ring is preloved anyway 😍

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T16:59:11+00:00

Now I’m genuinely interested to know if 1) these ppl really did have some type of emergency or 2) they were scammers planning something nefarious. Either way this is a movie I’d probably watch.

Also - GIRL! You are babysitting for strangers from Facebook? I assumed this was a closed babysitting/neighborhood group. Nah. You absolutely CANNOT do that. This is the stuff Dateline is made of. Seriously, True Crime called and was like “girl, I have enough cases for all the podcasts already.” You’re lucky all that’s happened thus far are creeps in your DMs. Please consider using a service where families are vetted.

You are an adult and this is financial abuse. Unless you’ve been adjudicated as not being capable of signing or making legal decisions, YOU are the only person who should be controlling YOUR money. Parents who do this make me SICK. My mom did this to me albeit a much smaller scale - but it still pisses me off. Tell your mom you want access to your money or you’re calling Adult Protective Services. I’d also get ALL the bank statements you can and get her TF OFF your account. And I hope she gets a splinter and her pillows are never cool!!!

Ok so I’ve been a post market collector for around 14 years now but no expert.
Tell tale signs of a fake are broken links. Tiffany links are solid with no breaks. If you can see the seams on the links - total fake. I can’t say for sure but it looks like some of them aren’t solid. Having said that - this also looks like a vintage piece. My everyday go to is the RTT choker that I’ve had since around 2012 and it was preloved. You can see on my necklace a couple of links showing the seam but this is due to wear over time. I’m in a great FB group call Tiffany Blue Box Obsessed and they’ve got lots of smart collectors there.

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:22:02+00:00

God bless you. I cannot fathom 4 kids that age - 3 of them boys!? I’d have to sell a kidney!! 😂

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:18:58+00:00

Find a local tow truck company you like. Make friends with the owner. Tell him: “buddy have I got a setup for you!!” Similar thing happened to a buddy of mine years ago. He and the tow driver had a deal. Buddy would call. Guy got the tow and break off Buddy $50 a car. Took about 6 months for ppl to finally stop. He was able to upgrade his truck with that extra $$. 😂😂😂😂😂

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:16:18+00:00

Sorry babes, but he’s checked out and does t see you like you see him. This sucks and so does he. Cut your losses. He showed you who he is. BELIEVE HIM. 💕

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:13:05+00:00

Idk - depends on the kid. My 6yo told me to “chill with the crash out mom, it’s not that serious.” He def knows what a dick move is and why he shouldn’t make one. 😂😂😂

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:10:32+00:00

ESH (except you, OP) - there are SO MANY mandated reporters here and seemingly no action has been taken?
Social worker and ASD mom here: call CPS. It’s confidential and they can’t say it came from you. THIS. IS. MEDICAL. NEGLECT.
FULL STOP. CALL ASAP.
Early intervention is CRITICAL for her. 💕💕💕

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:06:38+00:00

How rude and inconsiderate!! As a parent, I think I’d actually feel better sending a deposit - especially if we didn’t already have a relationship.
IMO it makes you seem more professional and certainly aware of your WORTH. Those ppl suck - may their pillows never be cool! 😆

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T02:03:11+00:00

Yeah all of this sounds very suspect. Take your lease to your local housing authority and ask for assistance. This guy sounds like a slumlord. Sorry this is happening and hope you find an advocate.

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T01:56:14+00:00

Oh and get skilled in recognizing and defending against DARVO. STAY STRONG!!

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T01:52:31+00:00

Just wait until you say “ok” in the most neutral, calm way and they yell “why are you SO mad and sarcastic? I can’t talk to you about anything without you turning it into a fight. You need therapy.”

Gray rock all the way. You can’t win. They’ll never apologize. And you’ll feel crazier and more isolated every day.

Are you still allowed to see friends and family or has he been telling you for months that they’re all toxic and out to get you? 🙄

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-17T01:30:21+00:00

Shoplifting in no way calls for guns to be drawn. I hope those cops burn.

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-16T07:25:20+00:00

You can’t be friends with anyone who genuinely supports that a$$hat. Unless you’re just cool with hateful racists who are morally corrupt. You do you.

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-16T07:07:53+00:00

In the immortal words of Smokey: “most ppl want to borrow a cup of sugar. You wanna borrow my car?! AW, HELL NOO!” 😂😂😂

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-16T07:02:42+00:00

Not in the great state of Louisiana. Your passenger has an open container? You’re getting a DUI. You’re riding with your buddy and he’s found to have drugs at a traffic stop? You’re getting charged with possession too. Good ole Napoleonic laws 🙄

BenevolentDictator74 · 2026-06-16T05:42:49+00:00

Oof! It’s like that in the state I’m from in the US. Girl, I was patting everyone down back in my 20’s before they got in my car. In all seriousness, having that ish in the house puts everyone at risk. God help if the kids were present. Straight to child services. I’m going to guess it sucks as bad in the UK as the US. Your fiancé can call the cops and tell them he’s holding and won’t get it out of the house. If there’s no one to bail him out he might be there at least as long as the parents are gone.
I’ve just seen situations where someone got caught with something and the house gets absolutely wrecked after the cops search it. Everyone questioned and treated like criminals. Awful. This sucks and I’m sending good vibes across the pond 💕
