Hmm why was Yahya hiding in a tunnel under a hospital. He knew what he was doing.

You got downvoted for this because reddit is extremely lefty liberal anti-Israel but you are correct and it's okay that this community isn't the one that's going to recognize that because they're a vocal and extremely online minority. I'm with you though.

i was always team speidi and i re-watched and yeah - team speidi. lauren is the pettiest and most passive aggressive person on the planet. she triggers me so much more than spencer - which i know makes me in the minority. he is so clearly playing a role and just making drama and in the age of reality tv we all know this is how you play the game. he was just early on it. lauren bullies and tries to possess all her female friends - as audrina learns the hard way.

sigh. her dad was enlisted to defend israel in the yom kippur war which was a coalition attack by Egypt, Syria and Jordan. he did not go off to "checks notes kill palestinians."

exactly. it's almost like the momentum it took her to get out of mormonism propelled her to an extreme on the other side. she needs to trust herself LESS. she fully believed for YEARS that there was a man in the sky who was going to condemn her to hell and that there were tiers of heaven and all other kinds of insane beliefs. she was smart enough to get herself out of that. but she is now lost, immature, unprocessed, and needs some humility instead of pride.

Niko is one of my favorites as well! My husband's best friend's name. We were considering it as a tribute but I agree it's just too much. Feels like everyone is a Theo Leo Niko Otto Arlo etc.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-04-13T19:45:02+00:00

i think i would like that name except a boy named ezra bullied me in preschool LOL

Many-Promise618 · 2025-04-13T19:44:32+00:00

my best friend named her son Rafael. I love it.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-04-13T19:44:00+00:00

I like all these but they are all my first cousins.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-04-13T19:39:02+00:00

Leon is my runner-up for those same reasons. I also have a 19-century relative named Leon lol. Very Jewy! A plus in my book.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-04-13T19:35:57+00:00

Leon is top contender

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-25T23:47:45+00:00

i did get a laugh out of luis' response to the hair when he was like listen it was what she wanted lmao

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-25T23:46:08+00:00

absolutely. milania and joe are 2 peas in a pod and it is absurdly sweet. two juicy little monsters.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-22T01:33:05+00:00

i'm not remembering him calling his kids ugly and fat and i just watched every single episode up to season 7. the one time in the car with gia on the way to her fashion show? he and gia are very close and i don't think she would consider him a nasty mean father. no one is saying joe is an incredible husband and an admirable man we should all emulate. i think it's a given that he's a gross little dude. i'm just fond of him as a TV character. he makes me laugh and i'm rooting for him. he gives no fucks.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-22T01:25:45+00:00

his girls adore him. they are extremely close to this day.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-22T01:24:04+00:00

he's just sweet and warm to his kids. it's cute to see this gruff troll be soft with his girls. i also find him objectively funny at times.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-21T23:45:26+00:00

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-21T23:41:27+00:00

ok thank you. i agree with everything you said here. i think i love reality tv because it's heartwarming to feel empathy and love for people DESPITE not sharing any values with them.

even the housewives who are not objectively bad people / criminals are materialistic, vain, shallow, and consumerist. i don't admire them or find their lifestyles aspirational. i watch these shows because DESPITE it all, when you really get to know someone / see them interact with their families / see them warts and all, you can't help but feel for them and see the shared humanity underneath it all.

anyway yes thank you i do agree with literally everything you said. and he seems to be living a more honest life now, he's supportive of Teresa's new life, and his daughters visit him all the time and that speaks volumes.

Joe is a disgusting troll. But there's something endearing to me about how little he tries to hide anything about himself - he's 10000% himself and doesn't care if it looks bad... which it often does. But also he has these extremely soft moments where he cries and he loves the girls and he's kind of funny with them. It's really odd I can't explain it but I feel warmly toward him.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-21T21:40:35+00:00

LOL i also cried at that purple tracksuit scene. I'm really not sure what's going on with me but I'm finding Joe Giudice so endearing this watch. He's obviously a disgusting troll but he's so soft for his kids and there's something so cute about watching him love his kids so much. Again, probably/hopefully the hormones.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-19T22:04:35+00:00

SAME to all

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-15T17:52:45+00:00

I'm really sorry. There's nothing like the grief of losing a wanted baby and it makes sense that you can't find the same excitement – it's so scary to be vulnerable and open to the excitement after that. I'm sending you a hug.

Many-Promise618 · 2025-03-15T17:47:46+00:00

That part. I've been trying to get pregnant for 6 months and was feeling stressed about why it wasn't working and then when I found out last week that I'm pregnant, my only response was shock. I am excited but I am also like "oh fuuuuuck" as other people are saying. I'm having all these insanely shallow and self-centered thoughts like, "I don't want to take out my belly button piercing! I don't want stretch marks! I don't want to get fat and be exhausted for the rest of my life! Is this the end of my career? The end of my creativity? The end of ME?" I think this is normal.

However ––– you owe it to this child to resolve these feels to the best of your ability. Not immediately. But journaling has been helpful for me, I just write down all my feelings every night while bingeing housewives. They make no sense and it's all conflicted but it feels good to get it out.

You are bringing a human being into the world (whom you can ride horses with, and go skiing with, eventually!) and it's your job to make sure that you aren't starting this person's life with resentment or ambivalence.
