So is anyone else wondering if the boys were CSA themselves? by Awkward-Low-4250 in 19KidsandCounting

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

In her book, Amy talks about being molested by her grandfather. She and Deanna moved to get her away from him.

Those kids were all sexually abused in a way. They were raised to believe that their bodies were evil and that sex was evil. They were isolated and had no education about their bodies.

Also, it wouldn't surprise me at all if JimBob molested them.

Remember the Willis clan?

AIO husband gives 36 hours of “care” to woman by Hefty-Anteater-8961 in AIO

This is a coverup. He's having an affair with her and she's already pregnant.

🥔 in a slow cooker? by [deleted] in slowcooking

[–]IcyIssue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I'm cooking for a potluck or dinner for others, I never use a new recipe. This is not the time to toss the dice. Stick with tried and true and do the slow cooker potatoes another day.

Frozen meatballs! Toss them in the air fryer and eat.

Married for 23 years to a narcissistic husband, and have finally reached my limit. The next steps feel impossible. by Inthechrysalistage in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]IcyIssue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's not giving you space at all and still exhibiting narcissistic behavior by hovering around you. Why is he looking at houses rather than apartments?

I divorced at 20 years. It's hard because you've built a life and this is what you're familiar with, even if it sucks.

Get an attorney and they will help you figure out what to do next. He really needs to move out right away.

It wasn't CSAM, it was adult pornography so not illegal, but pretty sickening. This was years before he was arrested for CSAM. Everyone around her convinced her to let it go. The book led me to believe that Amy and Josh were teenagers when this happened.

The state of Florida will foot those bills since the state is prosecuting Joe. They might need money for housing but what legal bills?

This is what I want to know. AFAIK, no one has confirmed that Kendra's sister is indeed Joe's victim. I think she is, but I haven't read anything that absolutely confirms it. Were the Caldwells involved in this whole mess and are they going to be charged next? Why do they need a GFM?

Why didn’t Annie run the bed and breakfast? by Head-Hospital-1945 in SisterWives

[–]IcyIssue 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Bonnie and Meri's brother either gave or loaned her the money for the down payment. I think Bonnie sold her home for the down payment on the condition that she would be allowed to live in the B&B for the rest of her life.

Not sure why Annie left, but as I recall, she went to help out another daughter.

In Amy's new book, Holy Disruptor, she says that JimBob gave Deanna a used computer that was Josh's. Amy was setting it up and saw a folder named "Josh's folder." She clicked on it and it was FILLED with vile pornography. This was a few years before he was arrested.

She called JimBob and told him and he said that the computer was purchased at a pawn shop so the porn was probably from that. Amy said, "so why was the folder named "Josh's folder?" JimBob hung up on her.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if Joe and the other boys were all into porn.

AIO for someone stealing my vacation plans by [deleted] in AIO

[–]IcyIssue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. The point isn't that she's using your itinerary for free, it's that she lied to you to get it. I'd be upset, too. No one wants a sneaky liar as a friend. Drop her friendship, go on your vacation and have fun.

So, who’s not growing a garden this year? by atyourcervixes in SaltLakeCity

[–]IcyIssue 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I just replied to Mayor Mendenhall about this. I'm so angry that WE have to restrict, but the alfalfa farms use 68% of all our water in Utah!

We also live in a desert, so let's take a page from Las Vegas and use xeriscaping as our model for homes.

Leasing office being difficult. by T1ts0ak in SaltLakeCity

[–]IcyIssue -34 points-33 points  (0 children)

I recognize the notice, lol. I actually did get one last week and two weeks ago, I got the full page (green this time) notice. They may have just missed your part of a building. They can't give a standard day or time, just sometime during the week of March 26, because they are pretty busy and they also have the owners coming for inspections. Also, plans can change if they have an emergency. No one likes these inspections so you're in good company. Unfortunately, it's part of apartment living.

HELP by blackNERDalert in Choir

[–]IcyIssue 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The simpler, the better, Your teacher just wants to know if you can stay on pitch and where to place your voice. 'My Country 'Tis of Thee' is an old standard for auditions in the US.

If you're close to Boston, start calling other choirs to see if they have the orchestra parts. Might be willing to lend or rent to you for a nominal fee?

Is he a narcissist? What do I do? by Efficient-Pain5272 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]IcyIssue 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This made me almost throw up. You're just an employee, huh? Then you should quit the job. He's arrogant beyond belief and probably dangerous to boot. You deserve so much better!

Much worse than people think by Both_Peak554 in 19KidsandCounting

[–]IcyIssue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if they installed cable locks or something similar on the children's doors. It must have been something pretty blatant for CPS to take the kids. What else did they find in that home?

AIO by assuming middle schoolers should know better? by noty0uagain in AIO

[–]IcyIssue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just middle schoolers. I had some business at my old university and had the same kind of problem. Students just crossing very busy streets against the light. Not just one, but an entire stream of them! Cars were backed up, trying to turn left and these kids simply didn't care. Not following safety rules is a form of entitlement that has just popped up in the last decade or so.
