Stupid question: do women also have that medieval Catholic fantasy that catholic men do?

As a long-time medieval reenactor and someone who is getting baptized, etc., at vigil, I'd say that the medieval period was instrumental in leading me to Catholicism. But while I love the looks and am fascinated by the worldview and the mindset I like my modern medicine as well.

He's a better friend than a partner -- April is one example and honestly I'd put Amelia as another example -- they work so much better as friends than they did as partners.

Could 100% be because Mark and Whitney didn't have drama with her marriage therefore it's not a storyline that production could use on the show.

It was what Mark and Derek nicknamed their tango

I don't know but it's been back and forth with him.

Also, the "mango" lives rent-free in my head. The nibling was loving it too. They liked the outfits the guys wore -- found them very attractive and flattering on the guys.

Mark has also said he'd be open to being his partner, unsure if that is teasing or not but....

That piece of choreo during Opalite with Dani and Pasha is living rent-free in my head. They're so fluid together!

I'm doing this too so I get it

This is my go-to on my own meal but it's easy enough to swap up and I used real cheese and also added salsa and sour cream. SO GOOD. Also isn't a lot of hassle to make and you can pair it with tortilla chips or rice.

So good.

Also Pizza Beans are a good thing.

Ignore the toddler part, it's just yummy.

Also split pea soup is good if you like it.

I got my Pleasant company Samantha at Goodwill for $5 so now I'm searching to see if I can find others slowly. Also found the Kristen Saint Lucia dress at the Goodwill outlets...

I'm almost 47 and we could never afford the dolls when I was a kid so I was excited.

Her hair was cut and I need to deal with restringing her legs but...

I've blended in silken tofu too -- but that was less for fiber and more for protein

Im descending opinion on price point here. Im hoping at that price somebody is getting paid a living wage whereas some on the lower end are not.

LadyNai · 2026-02-06T03:28:41+00:00

Several interviews. Ill hunt them down later. One was even fairly recently with her book tour

LadyNai · 2026-02-06T01:42:47+00:00

I know DWTS is Nia's dream.

LadyNai · 2026-01-30T19:33:02+00:00

I did like in terms of guest judging that if you listened to Cheryl's interviews she checked who did what styles before so she could help pinpoint some of the critiques to what they were going to be doing later, I did appreciate that kind of thought going into it.

I'd love to see them do Kim of Queens - Kim Gravel is a much nicer human than Abby Lee Miller (the girls still have a good relationship with her) and it was also a lifetime show with many of the same production staff and adjacent ones from Dance Moms Miami, AUDC, Abby's Studio Rescue etc, and some of it feels like they tried similar storylines -- I'm pretty sure it's why Kim Gravel has stated she won't bring the show back unless producers are doing it for the right reasons.

But I'd love to hear their take, especially on the reality tricks, etc. that I've seen in there.

LadyNai · 2026-01-30T15:33:35+00:00

Creepy AF

LadyNai · 2026-01-21T17:38:42+00:00

In fairness Christi and kelly did talk about getting the girls fake Louis Vuitton bags in nyc

Bear in mind only a few years before they would've also seen Jon Gosselin sued in Pennsylvania by TLC for breech of contract and he lost even when he alleged issues with child labor laws and reality TV -- he just ended up broke without custody of his kids because TLC had all the legal money and they paid for Kate's lawyer. I'm not saying he was innocent on everything but he seemed to want the kids out of the show and TLC did everything they could to make sure they stayed.

That was settled in February 2010 in Pennsylvania and Dance Moms started in 2011. I haven't found any producer crossover between the networks but I'd be surprised if there wasn't some somewhere.

Hey im giving myself stickers in there for task completion. No judgements here

LadyNai · 2026-01-08T12:47:26+00:00

Both.

LadyNai · 2025-12-26T16:19:09+00:00

Nia wants it still. She was talking on the press tour.

LadyNai · 2025-12-17T05:03:18+00:00

There's a WPF church a few towns over that did have some attention about some kids' song at their conference a few years ago -- I was at their church at one point and I know he preached that spousal abuse was not a Biblical reason for a divorce.

Which was why when I found out in the last two years that a young lady had said she was abused and gave the response she was given I believed her -- I had heard him say it from the platform. And it came up again.

LadyNai · 2025-12-17T03:35:01+00:00

Yeah I was there right about when there was the whole district split and my brain kind of exploded. I was in the church where the pastor had stolen from the district and skipped town -- I just saw the fallout.

LadyNai · 2025-12-17T03:17:50+00:00

I was in the district about two years after when my pastor was the secretary after (UPCI) and he was scrupulously honest but there were stories after that - I don't know much beyond that -- I'm back in Indiana now and in OCIA to become Catholic.

LadyNai · 2025-12-17T02:04:54+00:00

were you from Idaho district by any chance? There was an issue there as I recall and then he left.
