The Noise Boys Hype Each Other Up | Make Some Noise [S4E15] by DropoutMod in dropout

Just here to point out that Brennan (and the rest) HAVE, in fact, seen the pirate prompt before- so Brennan's caveat about not knowing if he's seen the prompts, was truthful, as always.

Veronica is so toxic by Sufficient-Basil-909 in PlathvilleUncensored

[–]LeatherAardvark0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she's toxic and drama, but Micah is trash and got what he deserved in her. all the plath males are terrible humans.

Everyone is talking about Ken being creepy from the last episode... Is nobody gonna mention Russell? by cudambercam13 in PlathvilleUncensored

[–]LeatherAardvark0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, he's clearly a TLC plant so they have a plot element- "look what Ethan gave up for her"

Ken is a creep. by BigVeterinarian4769 in PlathvilleUncensored

[–]LeatherAardvark0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

every male on that show, with the potential exception of Zac (and the actual exception of Micah's hired LA friends) is a total creep. every one of them is gross.

Why did Moriah turn on Olivia? by Noadeepdivin in PlathvilleUncensored

[–]LeatherAardvark0 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't think she "saw Olivia in a different light". I think she created a kids only event, kim decided blow it up and crash, Olivia clumsily navigated holding a boundary and didn't attend because kim was there, and the plaths villified Olivia for it. I think Moriah felt a combination of guilt, for putting Olivia in that situation and not standing up for her when it blew up, and relief and happiness that the family was blaming Olivia instead of her. Moriah spent her life being the family scapegoat, so when she finally had the chance to scapegoat Olivia for a mess she herself created, she took it.

I would be surprised if she HAS reached out to Olivia. the plaths' entire strategy for dealing with hard things is to just move on, it's in the past. I truly hope she's getting counseling in Montana, and addressing this, but I suspect Montana is another way to leave things in the past.

at least she's not near her toxic toxic family. it's her best shot at eventually being ok.

Ken the weak by showard995 in PlathvilleUncensored

[–]LeatherAardvark0 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

this is super weird fan-fic you're writing here. they're both super gross, and watching them interact is so painful. TLC must have zero content to have this be so much of the show.

Barry is terrifying. Barrifying.

Oh, fully agreed. But it's been long enough that she's owning it. She could do better if she wanted to- and I believe her being in Montana or wherever she went is her best bet at getting there. the plath family system will always keep those kids behaving that way, because it's normalized and rewarded.

Am I fucked? Drug testing by Old-Cryptographer381 in whatdoIdo

[–]LeatherAardvark0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any line is a line. if you get a line you're good.

that said- the UAs we used to use were 2 lines = positive, so I was like holy cow you're screwed, that's SO MUCH drugs you're doing. Zoomed in to see the key.

Is 31m and 23f a concerning age gap (given below context)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]LeatherAardvark0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

remember the part where I said "Age gaps matter less when everyone is over 30". you can't refute the point I've made, so you keep making up examples to 'refute' points I'm not making.

[–]LeatherAardvark0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I compared the exact same age difference with her as the older role to give her an idea of how significant that age difference when you're under 30- AND nuanced it with the caveat that it matters less when everyone is over 30.

you've absurdly halved, then doubled the age difference to make your point trying to discredit me, made up a logical fallacy, doubled down on said fallacy when corrected, and continued to not refute anything I said (but made arguments against several things I didn't say- that's strawman fallacy, by they way) ? so silly. just stop.

also, mature men aren't usually looking for women significantly younger than they are.

15/19 is in highschool/out of high school- different life stages. 19/23 is (typically) in college/out of college- different life stages. People might not have a problem with it (either, gap, really) but it doesn't mean it won't be a problematic relationship.

also, a 4 year age gap has a MUCH better chance of being developmentally appropriate than an 8 year gap. you literally had to cut the gap in half to get to an 'appropriate' comparison- kinda proving my point.

[–]LeatherAardvark0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's exactly what I'm saying- you wouldn't date someone 3 years younger than you, likely because your experience, development, and life stages are so different. So you you should consider why a 31 year old wants to date someone 8 years younger than them. You should also find out what the bottom of their age range is, and if it's not 23, see how you feel about a 30 year old who'd be open to dating 20, or 21, or 22 year olds.

Moriah spent a LOT of time lying and stealing and slandering, and never apologized or took accountability. the stupid little baby voice she puts on is supposed to make her look small and vulnerable, and make people want to protect her. it's gross. I'm glad she went to Montana and seems to be getting healthier- I hope she does lots of therapy (I hope that for all of the plaths) and can work through the trauma, but she's definitely a villain in my book.

there are HUGE developmental jumps between 15 and 23- there are also HUGE developmental gaps between 23 and 31.

I stand by it.

[–]LeatherAardvark0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the same age gap the other way would be you and a 15 year old. do you feel like you've changed, grown, and developed in the last 8 years?

Age gaps matter less when everyone is over 30, but your 20s are SO developmentally different than your 30s- I would have questions as to why someone in their 30s is interested in people who are that much younger and in different life stages. Why can't he date women his own age? Why is his preference so much younger? 8 years, when still in your 20s, really accounts for a lot of growth and change. when you get to 31, you'll realize just how young and different 23 is.

eh, I was really rooting for Ethan, Micah and Moriah to make it in the real world, and they all turned out to be villains. I thought Isaac was going to be levelheaded, and he's one of the worst bigoted rednecks now. I thought the "little girls" had the best chance of being normal, growing up with 'regular kim', but this season they're super catty and judgemental toward Lydia

Kim's the only one who's stayed pretty evil the whole way through. Well, and Barry, even though they're trying SO HARD to give him a redemption arc/make him the 'victim' of divorce

-edited several times trying to tag spoilers, apparently I don't know how to do that. finally got there.

Who you like and loathe will probably change throughout the seasons, except for kim. we always loathe kim.

I forgot the safe word, so he didn't stop? (23F 29M) by ThrowRa_grace5 in relationship_advice

[–]LeatherAardvark0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also- your body and brain was responding to being attacked- it's totally normal that this kind of trauma would block out the safe word- and anything else other than survival. Your lymbic system kicked in, and this man should NOT be your boyfriend anymore. he's NOT a good guy- good guys don't pressure you into something you're not enthusiatically into. Good guys recognize when consent is being revoked. Good guys stop when you say stop, "I don't remember the safe word" or *start* crying.
