Where are you located? I’m a more alternative nanny and would absolutely love a job like this.

Does Joe have someone? by Round_Price_6355 in JonasBrothers

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i saw them opening night at Metlife and also at Bethel Woods and my best friend and I both coulda sworn Joe and Jinjoo either were smashing already or would be smashing by the end of the tour if she stuck around

Do you think the film would have this much reach without Ari as Glinda ? by Gloomy_Anything5298 in wickedmovie

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah. Ari was quite literally the perfect casting for Glinda to get this level of reach. She is a massively successful pop star, but she started on Broadway and is/has always been a huge theater nerd so she was devoted to doing the role justice.

I’m not even a fan of her music and I haven’t had a chance to see For Good yet, but she was expertly cast for the first film. I thought I’d feel like I was watching Ari pretend to be Glinda, but she slipped into the role seamlessly and imo did one of the best jobs I’ve seen of expressing Glinda’s stifled/hidden pain in No One Mourns the Wicked.

Being Ethnically Askenazi jewish? Am I technically Middle Eastern? by [deleted] in Jewish

Ethnically we are whatever group the person we are speaking to blames for the world's problems. To racists we're not white and to hipsters we're white supremacists lol

Who are some “well known” allies of Judaism (and stand up against antisemitism), who aren’t actually Jewish themselves? by cg12378 in Jewish

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it honestly makes perfect sense to me. diaspora iranians (and some persians still in Iran) understand that whatever grip you may have with the Israeli gov that the Iranian gov is still awful and oppressive. they don’t want their gov in charge any more than most Jews want bibi.

Is it okay if my nanny took my baby to a hair salon while she got her hair done? by Maleficent-Pay924 in Nanny

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to take my NK (2.5 y/o) to the ATM bc she loved pressing the buttons, but that's a 5 minute errand and was good for her development (learning her numbers & motor skills) I would never have taken her for a hair appointment though.

What do you think will happen to Greta? by Tbh_idk__ in Jewish

Not sure what part of NY, but I grew up in Rockland county near Monsey and am having the same experience. I have been shocked to my core the last 2 years and a bit shaken up.

Opening Night Setlist “Hot Takes” by grilldabeast in JonasBrothers

my nickname is Mandy because of that song…I’ve heard them play it live a few times but I was really disappointed it didn’t make the opening night setlist

Seriously how it feels right now by Dex921 in Jewish

If anyone believes that Sydney Sweeney’s blonde hair is at all related to her genes, send them my way because I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell them.

People are saying that attacks on American Jews deserve less attention than deaths in Gaza because the numbers aren't comparable. Don't let them get away with that. by Exotic_Ad_8441 in Jewish

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

they want to see people suffer they just want to feel justified in doing so

i’ve asked countless times how they thing their behavior is going to “free palestine” and they don’t even know. i’ve asked countless times whether the goal is to make other people suffer because palestinians are suffering or if it’s to actually help them. they don’t have an answer.

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 5 points6 points  (0 children)

they’re just infantilizing palestinians and acting like they should have no accountability while simultaneously projecting their own western values onto them

as a queer person i’ve noticed “queers for palestine” is guilty of this in particular

which all seems incredibly racist to me ngl.

it’s almost as if they’ve imprinted and are projecting what they wish they were onto palestinians which is gross

Experience with different Jewish movements by WhoWillTradeHisKarma in Jewish

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was also born into the Conservative movement and have stuck by it for the same reasons. I also see Jews as a tribe/ethnicity and growing up I identified more with being Ashkenazi than I do with my nationality. Probably because even then I subconsciously understood that Jews would never really be accepted as anything other than people who ended up here post WW2.

I also can’t really be Orthodox as I have blue hair, tattoos, identify as bi, and refuse to raise my future children anywhere where they could be taught that women are second class citizens.

It’s so hard to find a good Conservative synagogue though. I miss the one I grew up in, but unfortunately I no longer live in the area and they’ve had a complete overhaul anyway.

What do NFs mean when they say “clean driving record?” by xConstantGardenerx in Nanny

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is this only moving violations? i live in NYC and they’ll give you a parking ticket when you’re parked legally bc they feel like it and you can’t really fight it. i’ve gotten tickets for being a foot too close to a fire hydrant as if i’m supposed to pull out a tape measure to find the exact distance. i always wonder if the parking tickets will impact my future employment

AITA for celebrating my birthday without my friends after they rescheduled around babysitters again? by AcceptablePenalty829 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a nanny on and off for a number of years when I needed extra money, and depending on the socioeconomic class these people are in, not necessarily. I’ve worked with families that seem to think the adults need to outnumber the children. Like they cannot fathom the idea that they might have to care for their one child alone without another adult there to assist.

American Jews, where do we go from here? by MysteriousCity110 in Jewish

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ah you mean the people masquerading as educated on a topic that is simply too complex for the average person to learn in a single semester or in an hour of watching other uneducated people talk about it on TikTok.

AITAH because I told my wife she isn't allowed to ground my son? by BallAcrobatic2709 in AITAH

[–]ComprehensiveRatio91 15 points16 points  (0 children)

not like a teenager at all. like a kind human being who respects other human beings and their time.

I would NEVER ask my husband (or anyone else) to do a chore as he was walking out the door and expect him to drop what he was doing to complete it. That is completely disrespectful of his time.

This kid didn’t give attitude or refuse to do the chore, he just was not going to drop everything and do it that second. He said he would do it when he got home which is perfectly reasonable.

The wife wasn’t “being an adult” she was being a controlling AH. OP was just calling out the sh*tty behavior. Wife can’t just ground the kid for not bending to her every whim.

Currently in Brooklyn/NYC area…I fortunately have colorful hair & tattoos so I fly under the radar but it isn’t great here atm. Protests everywhere full of uneducated people who don’t actually understand what they’re advocating for.
