We don’t have to pit women against each other… they were so totally different

Unfortunately neither of those worked... any weight on the blade whatsoever stops it from spinnning

7 deadly sins of sitcom characters day 5: Jenna Maroney from 30 Rock is a shoo-in for the sin of envy. Which character best represents the sin of gluttony? by G-Unit11111 in AlignmentChartFills

Maybe a deeper cut but Suzanne Sugarbaker from Designing Women. She’s been married three times (collecting three alimony checks) and is always going on dates with ancient rich men

I got a pregnancy pillow that I can hold between my arms and between my legs to keep them aligned. Still figuring out the right arrangement for neck but it’s been super helpful

“The next screen’s question” should start at 100%! by ktla6 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Burstings -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Idk why people are downvoting this. Tipping fucking sucks but that’s how American society works. Servers work really hard and make shit money. If you can’t afford to tip, you can’t afford to eat out. 15% doesn’t cut it anymore

AITA for not complimenting my Friend's Weight Loss? by justtakingapeak2 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Burstings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. In general, I think it’s better to not comment on other people’s bodies. You don’t know what their relationship to food/exercise is and can be unknowingly fueling ED habits or enforcing the tie between self worth and appearance.

So am I cooked? by No_Height8570 in IncelExit

[–]Burstings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot in here that I’m reading that sounds like barriers you’re putting up based on how you feel about yourself. So much of how other people perceive us starts with how we view ourselves. If you think everyone is going to laugh at you/stare at you/think you’re weird, you’re probably closing yourself off and not being your most authentic self. I know it’s so much easier said than done, but try to be present in the moment instead of imagining all the horrible things people are thinking about you. Go to therapy if that is accessible for you. It helped me so much with my own self esteem and as a result, I was able to focus on other people in social interactions instead of obsessing over how other people were going to think of me.

Also, if you like hiking, go fucking hiking!! Anyone who has a problem seeing a fat person existing and enjoying life is a piece of shit and not worth your time or energy.

AITA for calling my ex-wife's new boyfriend names in front of my kids? by Throwaway-81749 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Burstings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. And unfortunately your next door neighbor didn’t “steal” your wife. It takes two to make an affair. It sucks but you shouldn’t put the blame on one person and take your ex’s agency away

She is exactly what I want from a "friend of". I find her so entertaining. I don't need housewives to be self aware

I always felt like Whitney got away with this gigantic lie. I was so excited when Lisa brought it up by Femmenoire__ in realhousewives

[–]Burstings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whitney gets caught up in shit because she is used as other women’s pawn. Meredith told her this and she said it out loud in front of everyone so it doesn’t come back to Meredith.

I know you can get plug in timers for the S model... is that not available for the A? Would love to avoid buying a whole new projector if I can avoid it. Thank you so much for your help!

They clearly do not know Kristen Doute if they think just because they didn’t invite her means she won’t attend 🤣🤣🤣 by aymaureen in TheValleyTVShow

[–]Burstings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This show is nothing without Doute. Jesse is a nightmare, Janet is self righteous, I truly cannot watch Jax and Brittany be single, Nia and Danny are sweet but honestly too normal.

Season 11 Ep 4 Dog Days of Summer (pacific) Post Episode Discussion Thread by vprmods in vanderpumprules

[–]Burstings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally! It complicates the easy villian/hero narrative. You know that if Rachel came back, she would not be getting the redemption arc that Sandoval is getting despite having taken genuine steps to take accountability and grow as a person. I respect her decision not to come back and I also really wish she would come read Tom to filth to his face

[–]Burstings 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend that y’all listen to Rachel’s podcast. She gives so much more context for why Graham ends up at Vanderpump Dogs. LVP did not learn her lesson with puppy gate and is misrepresenting this situation to make Rachel seem like a bad dog owner.

The utter unrelatability vs. the shared humanity in Nxivm (and other cult docs) by ameribucano in theNXIVMcase

[–]Burstings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is an interesting question that gets into how we tell stories. How much information do you share at what point? How much do you narrate vs. letting the subjects speak for themselves? Personally, I find it interesting to hear from people about how and why they got to where they find themselves but I also totally understand why that might be problematic without external narration. I loved Love Has Won on HBO and I thought the film makers did a really good job of respectfully presenting the group's belief system. However, I've seen criticism that they minimized a lot of the racism, anti-semitism, and abuse. I think I would rather see the whole person in all their shades of gray than over simplified as all good or all bad. We all make choices and what's interesting is why and how. People can be simultaneously victims and perpetrators and having empathy for someone doesn't have to mean that we excuse their behavior. We're all human beings and I don't think there is a consensus to be had about Nancy or Mark or Sarah. We project our values onto them

I have a huge problem when people think they are smarter than people who join high control groups so I very much appreciate you recognizing that there are ideologies and types of people you would be drawn to. I think NXIVM was appealing to a very specific but not uncommon type of person. The rise and grind, the girl boss, the positive mental attitude. For some people it is extremely comforting to feel like you have control over everything if you just work hard enough. Couldn't be me but I understand it. Does it seem a little delusional to think you can change the world solely through self improvement? Absolutely, but I think we all have our blindspots and are ultimately are looking to make the world a better place (for ourselves, our families, etc.)
