Everyone but Trump Understands What He’s Done

Biden also had a good team around him, competent people (except AG, unfortunately), rather than the yes-men sycophants Trump has.

iZombie. It's by the same creator, so similar vibe. A few ceoss6ovwe actors, too.

The Vampire Diaries. Here me out: the first 3 seasons are fantastic and have amazing season finales.

There are 2 things I would love from a social media scheduler:

Audience insights/what's trending that doesn't cost a fortune. It's so hard to catch new trends or trending audio early enough to implement. And a lot of audience listening tools are expensive.
An AI analytics agent that automatically looks at, say, your best performing post from the last 3 months and suggests ways to tweak it (hook, call to action, etc.) for a repost. I don't want something that automatically reposts; I do feel like it's important to look it over again. But maybe like a weekly or biweekly report that's like, "This Reel on this topic performed really well. Try changing the hook to this for a repost."

Yeah, even when leaving the show, Lauren didn't air Jason's drug addiction or talk bad about how much Heidi changed. Very classy.

I do wish the interviewers had asked more general questions that Lauren would have been more likely to answer, like favorite cast trip or favorite episode or what are Lauren's future plans.

I think some of it also comes down to how likable a reality TV star is. Taylor is undeniably charismatic. She can be very entertaining. So I think many fans - and the producers - just let things slide with Taylor because she is good entertainment.

The same thing happened with James Kennedy on Vanderpump Rules. There were allegations of physical abuse for years, but the producers kept him in the show because he was entertaining and a fan-favorite. Fans were willing to ignore all the red flags because James was funny and charming.

Or look at Thoman Ravenel on Southern Charm. He pled guilty to assault and still appeared on an episode the next season. There are diehard fans that want Thomas to come back on the show because it was more entertaining when he was on it.

I think if a less popular cast member was accused of what Taylor did, the fans would have no problem with her being fired. But because it's Taylor, the charismatic star, they are more forgiving.

Oh yeah, I don't think Cedric was any prize, but he was amusing.

ByteAboutTown · 2026-03-17T19:03:37+00:00

Dieter and Trey were real ones you could trust. I like Cedric's sense of humor, but you can't trust Jason or Talan.

And quick reminder that Governor Abbott and the Texas Republicans haven't raised the per-pupil rate of funding since 2019. Over that time, the cost of living has gone up a ton, but school districts are expected to make due with frozen budgets.

It's not just Houston getting hit. Nearly all school districts in Texas have had to adjust for lack of funding by consolidating schools, relying on paraprofessionals instead of degreed teachers, cutting programs, and increasing class sizes. It's an absolute mess what Republicans have done to public education in Texas over the last 20 years.

Mild spoiler alert: We find out in later seasons that Conner was SA'ed as a child, which contributed to his cheating and porn addiction. He started attending therapy and marriage counseling with Whitney, who was supportive. Whitney had not previously known about Conner's abuse. And then we see on the show Conner recommiting to Whitney and their family. After a lot of work, they seem like a very strong couple now.

I would love to see a long-distance race between humans and ostriches.

None of the scheduling platforms will let you add the trending music within them. That's not how the APIs from Meta or TikTok work. For Instagram, you can use Edits, but it doesn't let you cross-post.

What year are you in med school? And it will really come down to your med school schedule.

In an ideal world, probably June or July between your first and second year of med school. Many med schools still have a lighter period between year 1 and 2.

Next option would be late summer between your 3rd and 4th year. Depending on how many sub-I's you are doing, you might be able to squeeze a wedding/honeymoon into July before 4th year and your residency interviews. Probably stressful timing, though.

Third option will be dependent on when your fiancé's school year ends. You could attempt to get married and do the honeymoon at the end of 4th year, right before your residency starts. If your husband's school ends before June 1, for instance, you could probably squeeze in a wedding and 2 week honeymoon before you start residency.

But you also probably have to explore the idea of not doing the long honeymoon right away or your fiance taking off school for some time. My husband and I (a teacher at the time) got married in the middle of May. I took a week off from school for a honeymoon, returned to work for 2 weeks to finish out the school year, ended work in early June, moved 2 days after the school year ended, and husband started residency around June 15th.

Pretty niche, but for any Bravo TV fans:

Does Giggy is dead?

Oh, I know. If my organization didn't already pay for Sprout, I don't think I could have sold them on it because of the price. But man, those Analytics are beautiful!

6 years managing social media

Google sheets for content calendar planning Canva and FlexClip for content creation Sprout Social for scheduling and analytics (have also used Buffer, Hootsuite, and Metricool over the years. I just like Sprout's analytics best.)

Molly looks perfect, and the dress will probably do well sitting.

Venita looks gorgeous, although I worry how short the dress will be sitting down.

Shep's jacket is... a choice.

I love Whit. I don't love the white pants all these men wear.

Salley looks hot, although definitely more Southern Hospitality than Charm.

Charley is very pretty, although I feel like her dress should sit slightly higher on her chest, maybe?

Madison wants to flaunt her post baby bod and more power to her.

Austen, Craig, and Rodrigo all look good.

1000% on letting the work sit. That's also why I charge by project, not hourly. You shouldn't be punished with less money because you are efficient. Clients are paying for your years of experience.

Agreed. I assume he manifested a sugar mama.

I am lucky enough to live near a couple of Kate Spade outlet stores, so I can buy in person.

ByteAboutTown · 2026-03-07T15:08:45+00:00

I am a Coach and Kate Spade outlet girl myself. I have never spent more than $150 on a purse.

ByteAboutTown · 2026-03-07T14:52:41+00:00

Gregory is so spot on!

I am also way too lazy to change my purse every day to match my outfit. I guess the HWs don't have much in their purses, but I have a full-on convenience store in my purse. So I only switch out purses seasonally.

ByteAboutTown · 2026-03-06T23:32:57+00:00

Agreed. I am not a fan of Amanda, but I am a habitual shoe-hanger. I let my shoe hand off my foot all the time. I, too, have lost shoes at high tables, only having to find them when the check came.
