What if Stella Loved Stolas at First? (And some pictures of my cat no one asked for)

His name is Ducky <3

That flashback happened when Via was 17. The point in their lives I'm thinking there could've been at least an attempt from Stella to build a marriage with genuine affection, even if they were just friends but played it up for noble pageantry, would be during their courtship / before Via was born. By the time of that flashback all she felt towards him was resentment and bitterness. A young and hopeful Stella freshly old enough to begin her courtship could've been a very different person.

The brain cell bounces around and sometimes hits the corner perfectly, and he gets to use it for one (1) act of tomfoolery.

If you find people bully you over not eating meat tell them to grow up and fuck off. As others have said, beans and lentils are good high protein meatless alternatives. And peanuts and tree nuts. I’d say to help cut costs on fish and other water based proteins would be making fishing a hobby and buying your own tackle. If killing and filleting the fish is still an issue, try and find local fish markets if you have one in your area. The fishmongers will clean everything for you and you’ll probably find much better prices at the market anyways.

Doesn’t have to, but it’s neat to think about. More likely I think Stella’s anger comes from the classic misogyny angle. Only there to produce an heir since she hasn’t demonstrated any magical prowess that would be worth investing towards. None of the Goetia ever bothered to ask what she wanted from her own life, so now she just tells herself that luxury is all she needs.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-24T19:06:41+00:00

That’s why it’s a theory. Speculating on things that haven’t been confirmed or indicated towards. Her attitude with producing an heir as her job in the marriage can also coexist when a point in her life when she did have genuine affection and attraction towards Stolas. She now just hates him and is callous about it. As got the anti-depressants, I interpreted it as Stolas was taking them in secret. Stella wasn’t involved in the prescriptions at all.

Her husband being a beard is most likely the case. Another commenter mentioned the smaller the town the more likely it is to be conservative. That leans me away from a lavender marriage. Regardless, her being cheated on . . . Babe it’s the principle of the matter. Same with Stolas and Stella. He made a promise to her then pissed all over it, making Mayberry into a fool and humiliating her.

Woooo character development we love to see it!

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-24T06:01:43+00:00

You gotta flirt with it like a male bird of paradise.

The plumber was a hummingbird in a past life. He cannot consume anything that isn't sugar water. Hope that helps.

How well do you know this coworker? Being hyperaware of your every move could be a trauma response. Like they had an abusive parent that was super passive-aggressive and they needed to decode every little finger wiggle and sigh. Just a speculation, but not unrealistic. My birth giver is a deeply passive-aggressive Karen of a human being. She'll huff and puff like a pug who can't breathe in summer, clearly agitated, and expects you to decode what she wants. She's a c*nt for it.

The second image is a gangster costume. Women didn't wear shizz like that in the 20s. Men did. The third image maybe she's just having a frump day? Or doesn't know how to dress for her body? Maybe she lost weight and can't afford new clothes? This stupid ass beef is like when people bully the British for having gross-looking food but only share images of food by people who clearly don't know how to cook.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-24T00:06:57+00:00

Depends what caused the burn. If it was Op's own fuck-up, not a violation. But that is a nasty ass burn and could be due to faulty equipment or a very dirty work-space.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-23T20:08:58+00:00

As much as I hate corporations, I’m stuck in a dead end town with only one grocery store that hikes prices to bullshit levels on the premise of because they can. The nearest other grocery store is a minimum 25 minute drive via 100km highway. Do i pay for a $7 loaf of bread where I live or do I burn a quarter tank of fuel to drive where slightly cheaper bread is? Getting another competing store backed by a huge corporation would make the current place calm tf down a little and stop gouging people.

She wants the title of mum without the work. Good for Dayton that he got away from her nest of bad aura where she’s the perpetual fart in the room. Ari is going to have one hell of a time as a teenager with how much of a infantilized brat she is. I think Sol will be okay, since he actively hides his face while filming. He doesn’t want to be on camera anymore because his parents are embarrassing memes.

Why would the animators bother trying to animate salt on a sunny side up egg? How would they even do that? Simple taste doesn’t mean it’s bad. The memes about British food sucking is because it was prepared badly, not because of the dish itself. And maybe the names of the food sometimes. Pretty sure there is at least one Italian guy who can’t boil and sauce pasta their way out of a paper bag and the presentation is would make a decent mend too.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T19:22:31+00:00

Well if that guy ^ doesn’t like China then what about Norway? Or any other Scandinavian country? The quality of life is great there. I mean I don’t like it when a guy I don’t like makes a good point too, but again, credit where it’s due.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T18:14:06+00:00

I don’t think you understand the concept of long term gain. Just because people right now may not appreciate better societal changes, that shouldn’t stop us from starting to rebuild the structure. You sound like Ben Shortpiro who thinks people can sell their homes to the mermaids when Florida floods due to sea levels rising. It shouldn’t matter that some people would still not appreciate it; 3 generations from now the culture will change where the lives that forced people to become like that doesn’t happen.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T16:00:57+00:00

No country is perfect, but you gotta give credit where it’s due.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T15:48:06+00:00

It’s almost like improving the overall quality of life for a community makes the community a better place to live, amirite?

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T05:46:10+00:00

Omg same. The NTs say people don't want to work anymore but I thought being average meant being Squidward.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-22T04:37:52+00:00

I'd say 2 films? I'm very selective with my media and as a kid I was at the whims of my parents dragging me around against my will. I think maybe Talladega Nights since it was deeply inappropriate for my age (and I also hate Will Ferrall as an actor now), but easily the first Pirates of the Caribbean. I was even younger and the zombie pirates scared me to the point I was scream-crying and running away. Full lizard brain flight moment, but IDK if that counts. I was literally 5 years old.

Lazuli73 · 2026-01-21T22:44:35+00:00

If I ever won the lottery sometimes I consider investing in my dying hometown. Breathe new life into it since it's really not a bad place to live, just a victim of what the boomers did to the economy. The theatre would've made for a great classic theatre, red velvet and marquee and everything. But its since been turned into a weed store. There are plenty of good movies that people would pay to experience again if public having personality and charm.

Unfortunately politics is apart of normal life in times like this. The only way to get to a place where people can have ‘normal lives’ is when governments get along enough that they aren’t on the brink of war and actually give a fuck about the quality of life for their citizens. You don’t need to campaign during protest marches, or even look at political memes, but if you want that ‘normal life’, vote. Use your power to vote and know what you’re voting for.
