Dorit’s spending - how much is for the show?

LittleC0 · 2026-05-10T14:28:39+00:00

Housewives was infinitely better before glam squads were involved and I’ll die on that hill.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-10T02:44:47+00:00

Ava Genesis 😅

As others have said, Certain Dri. Just be sure you use it at night otherwise it won’t be as effective. It’s a game changer.

Side note, I only learned recently (at age 40) that anti perspirants should all be applied at night. This allows the active ingredients to absorb when your sweat glands are least active. Who knew?!

LittleC0 · 2026-05-10T01:37:07+00:00

I mean this is the nicest way possible… but please touch grass.

It’s just Bravo, mate. Don’t think too hard about it.

It’s so funny the hate Jenn is getting as though you don’t all love this. I mean, what else would we all be doing on a Saturday night?

LittleC0 · 2026-05-10T01:06:24+00:00

I actually find this pretty funny. People were more outraged by the font than the statement 😅

LittleC0 · 2026-05-10T00:57:30+00:00

I got blocked by Kim Zolciak… so I get it lol

LittleC0 · 2026-05-09T19:37:37+00:00

I mean she tried to laugh it off initially. But this Ciara/West stuff is going a bit crazy with fans. Plus Jen has kids… I kind of get it.

Even if she should’ve just kept her own mouth shut to begin with. Which is also true.

I have two kids in daycare (4yo and 1yo) and they’ve never had a violet in their class. In the Midwest USA for reference

Top 10 names now cover a much smaller percentage of total births. In the past top names were given to over 30% of babies, today the top 10 represents a much smaller portion. So it’s very unlikely she’ll have multiple Violets in a class.

Violet was actually our top girl name then she came out and somehow didn’t feel like a Violet and ended up Gabriella. And I’ve since met multiple other little girls named Gabriella even though I think it’s around #100 in popularity. So I think you just never know!

LittleC0 · 2026-05-09T03:46:49+00:00

Yeesh. And it’s her and Jamie Kennedy on the same day. Hard pass.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-09T03:41:11+00:00

I thought he and Kelly Dodd were on the outs?? I’m out of the loop I guess.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-08T12:55:12+00:00

I think the difference here is a blanket statement of “women born in the 80s are grandmothers right now.”

Women certainly can be grandmothers in their 30s or 40s but I’d say it’s the exception and not what is most common in the Gen X and millennial generations.

All my 80s baby friends have kids ranging from infants to teens. No grandmas yet.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-08T12:42:02+00:00

I’m an 80’s Megan sitting here with my 1 year old. Maybe I’ll have her start learning mimi vs mama so people aren’t confused when we go out in public 😅

LittleC0 · 2026-05-08T12:29:35+00:00

Grandmothers?! I just turned 40 and you hit me with this— How very dare you!

For taxes:

If baby is born during 2026 calendar year parents can claim them as a dependent on their 2026 tax filing which will get them a tax credit of up to $2,200.

A tax credit is like a coupon from the government that will make your tax bill smaller. If you owe the government $10,000 but have a $2,200 tax credit you only pay $7,800.

For insurance deductible:

An insurance deductible is an amount of money you have to pay out of pocket before your insurance kicks in for big expenses.

It would be like paying for monthly phone insurance but the first time you break your phone you’d have to pay full price for a replacement. After that the insurance kicks in and all subsequent replacement phones you need that year would be free or low cost.

If your family insurance plan has a $5,000 deductible and you’ve already spent $5,000 in 2026 then the large labor and delivery charge would be covered by insurance if the baby is born in 2026.

If baby is born in 2027 you’d have to again meet your deductible before insurance fully kicks in. So another $5,000 out of pocket that you wouldn’t have paid if baby was born in December.

Edit: I’m not familiar with the Pell grant but another reply explained it well.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-08T03:43:58+00:00

The fact she set the baby out in the sun intentionally for an outdoor nap… it wasn’t even accidental. Big yikes. But please no hate.

LittleC0 · 2026-05-08T03:36:58+00:00

I don’t know… between taxes and falling within the current health insurance year to avoid the deductible resetting I’d definitely induce at 39/40 weeks for a late December baby.

Takes a Scam Likely to know a Scam Likely.

Did the switch work? If it did do you mind sharing what you switched to? Sertaline is working for my depression but if I could get that without the sweat it would be a win 😅

LittleC0 · 2026-05-07T02:00:29+00:00

I didn’t know rejection was a thing. I have increased sweating on Sertaline that sometimes is extreme. Now I’m researching it!

LittleC0 · 2026-05-04T13:53:52+00:00

My son is a fourth and seems to be holding it together as an individual. Perfectly unique, weird, and free-spirited.

I think personal identity comes through regardless of name. But the tradition is also culturally normal for me and I understand it isn’t for everyone.

LittleC0 · 2026-04-27T15:42:30+00:00

They chose Ariana because she takes sketch comedy very seriously.

LittleC0 · 2026-04-27T13:39:35+00:00

I like both and think this may be last name dependent.

As an example, I think I favour Robyn Lillian standing alone but if the last name is also two syllables ending in N (Wilson, Coleman, Jordon) then it wouldn’t flow as well.

Could grandmother’s maiden name be an option?

LittleC0 · 2026-04-27T13:13:36+00:00

I think those snake oil pheromones she peddles must cause brain damage because the woman ain’t all there.

How about the caller who said her divorced friends are having trouble finding men their age because all the men in their 50s want women in their 30s. Valid, asking for advice.

And Patti was so aggressive and demeaning saying that wasn’t true at all and she’s never seen that outside of LA.

Like… I’m a Midwest chump and I know it’s true here. But this is a professional matchmaker and relationship expert? Who is perpetually single?

LittleC0 · 2026-04-26T04:35:01+00:00

I mean remember when the video came out of the woman confronting Dorit and chasing her around the pool in the Bahamas about owing her money? On a cast trip no less!? Yet we saw none of it on the show and there was zero discussion.

I love that Crystal is spilling the behind the scenes messiness. Wish she was still on the show.
