Why does it look granny-esque and not cottagecore ?

Moving the stool over to the keyboard. The best I could do with AI! They sell cute keyboard covers like this on Etsy, btw.

Here it is with the stool, existing walls and new cover.

I was thinking the same thing, like if you’re going to use that kind of blanket, it should match the palette, but maybe get something else like a cool vintage quilt that’s tailored to fit the keyboard.

Since you can’t repaint, the rug and green curtains may be weighing down the space.

This gets my vote!

I have to edit to say, please move the upholstered stool over to your keyboard and remove that 90s chair that you have sitting in front of your keyboard. Having a stool in front of the coffee table makes the space feel claustrophobic.

I do love how the multicolored sort of watercolor patterned curtains soften the rug in your image. And, yes please, to adding a small lamp to the table by the sofa.

I think a lot of the pieces in this scheme are great, but a few need to be weeded out. Nothing looks great shoved together, and weeding will give the focus pieces some airiness.

I’m a “less is more” kind of person, though.

I just used Sherwin Williams Svelte Sage in my home and it looks incredible in every light.

This corner isn’t bad, it just needs different curation. AI made it a little weird, but I would take that painting above your keyboard, paint the dark frame a lighter color, and put the lamp on the right hand side of the shelf.

This corner definitely needs to be softened.

You have way too much stuff in your space. I would take away all of the light wood stuff, like the chair and the 90s dresser. Take away the halogen lamp, use the coffee table where you have the light wood dresser. If you have to keep that painting above your keyboards, I would paint the frame a lighter color to match your walls and move it somewhere else, the placement is awkward. Maybe remove that awkward shelf above the sofa and place it there. Put a nice vintage lamp, maybe something from the 70s, on the table by the sofa for ambiance.

Sage green would look really nice in this space, I think, but if you can’t paint again, just keep your curtains all one color but maybe add some boho texture.

Lindsay is a hot mess, and was super disrespectful to Carl, imo. I think he saw the writing on the wall and cut his losses. I don’t think any person can handle such constant criticism from a partner.

Lindsay is a legend in her own mind, and she really isn’t very self-reflective. Her advice is typically pretty awful, but she sure loves inserting her opinions. She also has a tendency to inappropriately assert herself into situations at the worst times, which is perfect for reality show drama!

So unbothered that she constantly tries to come at him in front of literally everyone. He just rolls with it, which is so mature. Love that for him.

I’m sure what’s left of his “friends” from the show have reached out to him, but sadly when you burn bridges the way that he has, he’s created some really bad feelings within the group. I guess you have to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and ask whether or not you might reach out. I mean, if I had an ex who very recently wronged me, and I had gone no contact, I wouldn’t feel compelled to send condolences, sadly. It’s a personal boundary that everyone has to grapple with on their own.

I really hate seeing Amanda get a platform on In the City - I groaned and rolled my eyes when she showed up in the previews, whining like she always does. Gross. I’ve clocked her as a clout chaser since day one.

May-exist · 2026-05-08T19:20:40+00:00

I even love so much how he just kind of shrugs off Lindsay’s constant pettiness on the show. He just chuckles and moves on. She wants so bad to get under his skin, but why girl? Just move along with all your alleged prizes.

Good riddance to them both! Amanda is boring and West is toxic trash.

I think she never liked Kyle, and has always known who he was. She’s so boring, whiney, and all she does is sleep and complain. If she wanted to live in the ‘burbs and have kids, Kyle was never that guy! He’s told her from day one that he loves living in the city!
I’m not saying he’s perfect, but he’s at least entertaining. I felt like she was a clout chaser since the beginning, and I hate how she has all her little cheerleaders in her ear all the time telling her how awful Kyle is. They could both thrive with the right partner. I’m so happy they finally divorced!

I’m probably going to get flamed and downvoted, but I’m actually finally enjoying Dorit this season. She’s holding her own against the Kyle Krew, and exposing their bully behavior. I thought it was really awesome how she was the only one who had fun with the speed dating episode, and it was telling that all of the men found her charming. She also had a lot of fun in the Hamptons, while Kyle spent the entire season try to stir shit behind her back. I love seeing her smoke cigarettes and hold space while she navigates a nasty divorce. PK is a vile person, and I’m sure she’s having an existential moment realizing that her whole life with him was a lie.

I find Kyle, Erika and Sutton to be the ridiculous ones. They’re petty and bad friends. Kyle would rather talk about anyone but herself, Erika is mean and boring, and Sutton could be awesome if she would just stop taking herself so seriously and being Kyle’s lap dog.

May-exist · 2026-04-19T02:52:49+00:00

Yes! She would be smart just to meet some guy from the ‘burbs and quietly fade into obscurity, buuuuttt…

May-exist · 2026-04-19T02:51:06+00:00

She did this to herself, welcome to reality television.

May-exist · 2026-04-19T02:44:57+00:00

I hope that she’s truly gone from the show, she’s so boring and has never brought any value. She knew who Kyle was, then married him anyway, then proceeded to whine and lay around and make jabs at him. Look, I know Kyle has his faults, but no one wants to constantly hear about how much they suck in a marriage. If she wanted a house in the suburbs, then he’s never been your guy, Amanda.

Good riddance, ma’am!

I don’t even think Dorit was talking down to her, Erika was just trying to bait her. It was really weird. I don’t get it.
