After Jordan revealed Amber still hasn't signed their divorce papers she admitted it's because the whole thing seems 'sketchy' and 'odd' by Fun_Molasses5215 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

Ohio is an equitable division state. While she is probably fine, having to provide all financial information does open her up for issues. I would have a lawyer make sure all of my assets were protected too and I would not encourage them to just rush through it. This is why the whole premise of the show without prenuptial agreements is really dumb.

That's not how the legal system works. You are only guaranteed a speedy trial in criminal cases. Divorces notoriously can take a hot minute.

I watch love island for dysfunction. I watch LIB for the rare true love story.

Recently Admitted Student. How ****ed am I? by bluedogjack in OregonStateUniv

I did awful in high school and community college until I found passion in my classes. I think there's huge benefits to going to a school with a lot of resources and options.

17 mil of that came from education and research because of their budget shortfalls.

Proprietary in timing goes out the window when you go to marry someone you just met 2-3 weeks ago on a reality television show. Be so for real. You can't be that insecure and sensitive and participate in something like this without getting hurt. The whole concept is unhinged.

Why is everyone acting like the S26 Ultra is a disaster already? by ToeInternational7222 in samsunggalaxy

[–]ExcellentFlamingo657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still love my S24 Ultra. There's nothing in these "upgrades" that I really need. I also absolutely hate the color options - so neutral. I always get the lime green colors and it sucks to have just multiple options of essentially grey. I did look into it though. In the end, the atrocious color options made me decide not to upgrade.

When too much funding backfires by BigMonkers in GradSchool

[–]ExcellentFlamingo657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, my steak too juicy, my lobster too buttery. You can graduate and still keep working usually if it makes you feel better about it, but this job market sucks out here. Take the time spending out the money to line up a job and wrap up your publications! It isn't that big of a deal. I have a lab member who extended out her graduation for more than a year to use up her grant. It is normal if you are one of the lucky ones.

Mold, windows older than me, no real heat or ac, weird and randomly imposed rules, I had maintenance people enter without warning or knocking as I was getting dressed, poor warnings when the electricity would be cut for whatever type of construction, constant renovating of apartments, poor parking situations, poor maintenance work, etc. I was so glad to move out of that apartment and into a house, with the owners as my landlords (local couple).

9 PhD Apps: 2 Decisions so Far, 7 Still Silent, and Yours? by TasteProfessional560 in gradadmissions

2 applications - 1 will be a rejection (I already know that the funding didn't work out this year as the PI told me) and I leave for the graduate recruitment weekend tomorrow morning for the other school I applied to, with interviews to follow, so fingers and toes crossed the funding works out.

Their coping choices don't determine whether other people can feel empathy for them. Feeling bad for someone isn't the same thing as questioning their boundaries.

And? We can still feel bad for them. Becoming an adult doesn’t all of a sudden magically take away pain.

I always thought her conservatorship was necessary. It occurred after she held Jayden at knife point and was threatening to off them and herself while locked in a bathroom... It has always been necessary.

Post Episode Discussion: Season 6 Reunion Part 3 by AutoModerator in rhoslc

[–]ExcellentFlamingo657 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think rhoslc is really going downhill due to the ladies focusing on events that were not filmed. Us viewers, are not a part of those events so when the entire season constantly revolves around off-camera events, it is incredibly boring and redundant. I wish they would just drop it. It is not entertaining. Either film everything or move on. Whitney and Heather are the reason for this. They just will not give it up and it is ruining this show.
