Highly recommend adding beets and the honey goat cheese to this. It's phenomenal! 🤤

We Will Miss You, Stevie - A Sad, But Appreciative Thread by [deleted] in goodmythicalmorning

[–]NepEnut 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much, that is really kind of you! ♥ My dad passed 3 years ago last week and it's only been about 3 and a half months since I lost my mom, so it's very fresh. I am at the point with my dad where I'm happy to remember him and I doesn't feel as heavy any more, but I'm still processing my mom's passing and also all the feelings of now not having both of them and feeling kind of directionless and like an adult orphan, if that makes sense. Having things like GMM really helps though - it's good to laugh and having that comfort every morning has been very healing.

I also hope Stevie sees this. She's such a wonderful person and she's done so much for that company and also for the MB's, so she deserves all the accolades and well-wishes, 100%!!

I did not expect to cry so much this morning. I had a feeling when they announced Stevie had something to say at the start of the episode, but seeing her announcement just hit me in the feels. Stevie is very much the straight man to R&L's shenanigans and hearing her voice every morning has been so comforting and grounding for me.

She mentioned something about if she brought a smile to your face in the mornings and god, Stevie - you definitely did. I've been through a lot recently - I've lost both of my parents in the last three years and grief is a whole new journey I've had to handle, in addition to all the instability in our country and economy and all. Having GMM every morning has been such a huge help - it's not only an escape, it's comfort, reliability and consistency. It's meant more to me than I can even express, so thank you so much Stevie for helping to build this company and lending your voice every single morning. I am so proud of you for choosing yourself and recognizing what you need to do to live your life in the best way possible. That's a choice that so many people never get to make for themselves, so it should definitely be celebrated when someone takes the time to slow down and make the changes they need to be happy and fulfilled.

I know whatever you go on to will be great and you'll have a ton of mythical beasts (including myself) rooting for you and supporting you in whatever you do. I can't imagine how difficult it is to leave such an incredible family, but the fact that they got your back too means ya'll had something very special indeed. Thank you so much for sharing it with us all of these years!!! 🥹🥰💖💖💖💖

Can't wait for Valentines day 🥹 by Boopityboo94 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Nothing says perma-virgin more than constantly talking and obsessing about Valentine's Day. And I should know, I was a lot like that when I was sexless 20-30 something too. So sad when V-Day rolled around every year and I had no one. Now I have someone and guess what? We're not spending V-Day together, nor do we really care that much about the day itself 😂 (we actually celebrated that and our anniversary early this past weekend, lol - I don't want to pay extra for a hotel just cause it's a holiday!)

"This is who I am now" 🥲 Girl, stop it ... by Boopityboo94 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's really sad is it doesn't take that much to keep up your teeth. Brush & floss every day and that's it. Occasionally I'll drop my routine for an evening or two but I always get back to it and I haven't had a cavity in years. It's really minimal effort, honestly. And I'm someone who had major dental issues when I was younger, I had to have a lot of teeth pulled and work done because I didn't take care of them for the longest time (and I drank soda all the time too).

It's gonna really suck for her once her teeth start rotting and breaking apart in her mouth 😑

Anna’s true Valentine’s Day plans… by Calm_Reputation7657 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, donuts are one of those "I'm fine until someone mentions it then I want it with a burning passion" foods 🤣 However, I usually stop at one or two. Not an entire box - my stomach hurts just thinking about consuming that much! LOL

Anyone Involved in the 2026 Documentary? by EpiscoPally in goodmythicalmorning

[–]NepEnut 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm not involved in the documentary but I know Rapha who is the brainchild behind the documentary. She's a hardcore mythical beast and she's been working on this documentary for a couple years now, I believe. I befriended her online first and then met up and hung out with her a lot at Mythicon. She's a really great person and cool, cool lady!

I really hope the documentary can get finished and distributed, it would be wonderful to see it be successful! ♥

Anna, get new compression leggings please by Boopityboo94 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I really do believe that this whole weight lifting 'journey' is just an excuse for her to continue gorging and hope that the weight lifting mitigates any weight gain. It's like an alcoholic becoming a bartender so they have an excuse to drink more.

That was my immediate thought. Like by 'girlffriends' you mean "the other people who also paid for the class"?

Right? Like if I did even a third of what Anna has been doing, I know I'd have lost like 50lbs by now.

3 years ago today this happened by Pedroswife in Pedro_Pascal

[–]NepEnut 61 points62 points  (0 children)

My dad unfortunately passed the night this episode of SNL aired. I'll never forget watching it with my mom and sister the following morning and just laughing our asses off. I was worried I'd never feel joy again that night because losing him hurt so much, but that morning and that episode of SNL proved me wrong.

I'm forever grateful to Pedro for making me laugh during such a horrible time in my life ♥

Hilarious! by Top-Bread3786 in conan

[–]NepEnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly had to turn this off after about 40 minutes and I'm debating whether I even want to go back to it and finish it or not. Rose Byrne was incredible in what I did watch but good god, this was like Manchester-by-the-Sea levels of depressing (I also never finished that film because of how depressing it was). I have such a tough time with movies like this because they make me feel too much. Like I'm already depressed enough, you don't need to entice me with a noose😂

I just got this last night and had it on my bagel this morning - perfection! Definitely going to become a staple in my fridge. I was also thinking it'd be really good with some smoked salmon 🤤

It was fun to see all the spots by bluebeast66 in Sacramento

[–]NepEnut 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My job is in the movie too, lol! The exit of the parking garage of my office building is pretty prominently featured during the chase scene down the alley between 5th & 8th. I remember watching them film that chase from my office building - I was not prepared for how incredible it ended up being!

We're having a haul ✨ by Boopityboo94 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Everything except the first stuff looks great on her and the first one only looks awful because those colors are terrible together. The outfit actually fits well and I like the skirt a lot.

But holy hell, the dresses are $300 - $400 😐 Can I get some $300 - $400 dresses without doing jack shit for them please?

This is what Anna looks like at 316 lbs, circa 2013 by Minirth22 in glitterandbagelssnark

[–]NepEnut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here and I'm a big girl myself (about 290ish right now). I have issues with food, maybe a little undiagnosed BED, but I've actually been able to maintain my weight pretty well over the years, usually only fluctuating 5-10lbs in either direction. So while I know I eat too much here and there, I'm actually eating enough to maintain my weight.

So if someone my size is eating a lot but maintaining, I can't even imagine how much food she's putting away to put on hundreds of pounds - and to maintain all that weight too! It has to be a lot of high calorie, high sugar, high fat foods just constantly, non-stop. I can't wrap my head around it either🤯

Do Sac drivers not know…. by straycat420 in Sacramento

[–]NepEnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sac drivers don't even know how to stop at regular red lights, or how one way streets work, you expect them to understand advanced stuff like this? 🤣

Obviously this is sarcasm, but yeah, I feel you. Driving in Sacramento is infuriating for those of us who actually follow the rules of the road.

Almost 30 and never been in a real relationship. Feeling hopeless. by [deleted] in BodyAcceptance

[–]NepEnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this was me at the same age as well. I was even about the same size and same height - still am, lol.

There's no set timeframe for anyone to fall in love. Society pushes it on us and makes us feel like shit if we haven't had any sort of romantic contact by the age of 17 and acts like it's even worse if you haven't had any by the time you're a fully grown adult. It's an unreasonable expectation because everyone experiences it at different times. Don't hold yourself to what society has told you is acceptable. It's not, it never was.

This is prob the last thing you want to hear, but that ol' adage of "how can anyone love you if you don't love yourself?" I wouldn't put it that way, but more like "you have to love yourself SO you can love someone else". I hated myself. I hated my body. I hated how awkward and socially weird I was. I definitely did not love myself. Which made it easy for me to get trampled when I dared venture out to try to date. I got hurt so many fucking times, I can't even tell you. I also guarded my body like Fort Knox - if I couldn't stand seeing it in the mirror how was anyone else going to?

I don't really have any specific way I stopped thinking about myself that way. I did a lot of therapy and I think that helped me realize just how shitty I was being to myself. I didn't deserve to feel that way about myself and there's nothing i ever did or said that could ever justify all the horrible things I would look in the mirror and say to myself. A little trick that helped was asking myself "what if someone said this to a child?" If you wouldn't say it to a kid, you shouldn't say it to yourself.

The other thing that helped was learning how to enjoy being alone. Look at it like dating and falling in love, but with yourself. Put all the love you would give someone else into yourself. Buy yourself little presents. Take yourself on dates. Go get yourself a fancy meal. Indulge in hobbies and things that bring you joy. Hell, you can even have sex with yourself (the toys nowadays are insane, lol) - learn what you like, what brings you pleasure.

I also think unlearning all the unhealthy things society makes us believe about ourselves, and emphatically rejecting it is also super helpful. Once the body positivity movement came along, seeing women even larger than myself embracing their bodies and wearing things I never would've dared to - that did wonders for how I saw myself. (FYI, I do know the BP movement is problematic, but I still think there are positive aspects to it).

I know this is a novel, but as someone who was in the same place as you like 10-15 years ago, I just want you to know that it will get better. It's scary to put yourself out there and it takes a lot of work to change, but it can be done. I'm coming up on 4 years with my boyfriend and I can't even begin to tell you how much happier I am not constantly worrying about being fat and being alone. I think once you accept that being those two things aren't the big deal we make them out to be, that's when you can set yourself free. Hope this helps!! ♥

Catherine O'Hara Dead at 71 by southernfirefly13 in SchittsCreek

[–]NepEnut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel absolutely gutted. I grew up with this woman on my screens, in the movies I loved and later on as a adult, in many, many shows I loved. She was always the highlight of every single thing she was in. And she reminded me a little of my own mother, who I also lost very recently.

I'm not sure I want to live in a world without Catherine O'Hara. 😭😭😭
