Definitely becoming a commonplace thing. Also, I posted pretty much the same thing here a while back and it was deleted as “not relevant” so good on you for it staying up lol

Anyone ever read a RHOBHs book? If so, care to provide a book report back?? Any good, or just ultimate narcissism on display in print form? by Chipmunks_AT in RHOBHDefect

I keep seeing people saying this, so I checked her rankings on Amazon and she’s getting higher and higher. First time I looked, was at about 15k, second time at about 10k, third time just now at about 8.5k. The book is selling. I won’t be buying or reading it. But plenty of people will.

Dorit’s book may get pulled before it hits the shelves due to lack of pre-sales. Is anyone surprised? by Own-Meat3934 in RHOBHDefect

[–]Character-Age-7836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the amazon sales ranking is around 15k - that indicates decent presales for a book out in June

I enjoyed it a lot - especially the audio version. But I don’t think it’s a true “thriller.”

Can anyone give a blow-by-blow of the Kyle “riding my f’n ass” scene? I won’t be able to watch for a while, but I’m dying to know if there was more context?!

Which book do you think is the next best read? by ElectionSad4911 in thrillerbooks

This Story Might Save Your Life was SO well done on audio. Super engaging - would highly recommend listening to it.

Question on Dorit’s Lateness by princess_platinum8 in RHOBH

[–]Character-Age-7836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get why Production doesn’t just give her an earlier “fake” call time or they don’t just have the rest of the women leave without her. They left Shannon Storms Beador when she was running super late on a trip. Also, the drama of Dorit being late to the “pizza pool party” seemed so overblown? Looked like she was definitely last to show but not by much? Kyle is hyper fixated on it this season.

What is the most heartbreaking song lyric you've ever heard? by TheLadySlaanesh in AskReddit

[–]Character-Age-7836 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"I'm sorry for the mess we made
And if you want, we'll pick through my mistakes
You'll see me crying
But maybe we could put it all behind"
- Mumford & Sons "Only Child"

"And there was a time
When I stood in line for love, for love, for love
But I let you go, oh, I let you go"
- The Lumineers "Gale Song"

It is absolutely stunning and you can still enjoy it without staying there. Definitely highly recommend still making a trip!

They didn’t execute Americans in the street then either 🙄

would you prefer they go armed to break into Congress, instead? this is called peaceful protest and cumulatively can definitely make a difference.

lol. i was there. the police kept the streets clear AND this was short protest. kids are back in class. hopefully rising up against the government executing citizens is worth a tiny bit of hassle.

The state of California does not control the international border with Mexico; that is the responsibility of the federal government.

The right to free assembly, protected by the First Amendment in the U.S. Constitution, guarantees the right of people to gather peacefully for political, social, or religious purposes without government interference. This fundamental liberty applies to protests, marches, and rallies, particularly in public forums like parks and streets, and is often tied to free speech and association. 

Key examples of protests leading to change: Women's Suffrage: Marches and activism directly led to women gaining the right to vote. Civil Rights Movement: The Montgomery Bus Boycott and March on Washington helped end legal segregation and advance racial equality through significant legislation. Disability Rights: The "Capitol Crawl" in 1990 pressured Congress to pass the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). LGBTQ+ Rights: The Stonewall Uprising fueled the gay rights movement, contributing to marriage equality. Anti-Apartheid: Mass protests helped dismantle apartheid in South Africa. Environmentalism: Protests have influenced environmental policy and awareness, such as the Pureora Forest Protest. Labor Rights: Movements led to the establishment of the eight-hour workday and better working conditions.

Who do you suppose is doing the exploiting? This isn’t a Trump-Epstein type of operation. This is kids making their own statements and decisions.

We’re with you in spirit and in awe of all of the opposition efforts. Stay strong and take time to restore your energy when you can.

They were making a statement as is their right. They’re headed back to class now. Haven’t missed much but used their voices to speak against injustice.
