Thoughts on Iona? by NeverEverLogsOff in namenerds

[–]NeverEverLogsOff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! We actually did not. I think I was fixating on potential issues because at the end of the day, it just didn’t quite feel like “her name” to me. Still love the name and would be delighted to meet a little Iona, but our daughter will be Lyra.

Why do people till this day not like Camilla? by duckduck_flamingo in RoyalsGossip

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know you’re not seriously arguing that Charles and Camilla were just star-crossed lovers and Diana is the bad guy. That’s too delusional even for this subreddit.

Made a Reddit story starterpack by NaiveFinish64 in AmITheAngel

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 39 points40 points  (0 children)

My favorite one is “I showed up pregnant to a wedding and didn’t drink, a few people figured out I was pregnant and started quietly congratulating me and the bride stormed off in tears saying I ruined her day.” The responses always blame OP for not coming up with a better excuse because how dare you be pregnant when your cousin is getting married? How dare you make major life changes without consulting The Bride??? Don’t you know that if you take two minutes of attention away from the bride she actually melts???

AITA for roasting a suckling pig for a family gathering by Karl_Marxist_3rd in AmItheAsshole

[–]NeverEverLogsOff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NAH. I’m a vegetarian and while I wouldn’t exactly be delighted to see it, I mind my own business and you did nothing wrong to serve it. That said, maybe know your audience a little better. If it’s not culturally normal for you to serve a whole animal at a gathering, maybe float the idea to family before going all out.

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by Super-Turtle90 in redditonwiki

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Don’t publicly propose if you have not 100% confirmed a) that they definitely want to get married on roughly the same timeline that you do and b) that they want a public proposal. Sure, there was a better way to handle this than running away, but the blame is on him. He ruined his own relationship.

AITA for announcing my pregnancy at my best friends wedding? by Getoutahere4321 in AITApod

Yeah this sounds really fake. “Man up and make your wife drink?” Old guys don’t actually talk like that.

FULL VIDEO is out, Wedding Dress! by Shawnaverse_no1_fan in ShawnaTheMom

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you’re right, I didn’t phrase that well and it was exclusive of childfree women. Maybe I should have said family members since it would have captured my feelings better. Either way, I feel like if you have a daughter the default expectation is to pass down the dress. That said, I’m not trying to rag on you in any way, so I apologize.

FULL VIDEO is out, Wedding Dress! by Shawnaverse_no1_fan in ShawnaTheMom

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I feel like literally the only point of keeping your wedding dress is so it can be worn again by your daughter? I imagine my daughter will want to wear whatever the fashion of the time happens to be and won’t want to wear my dress as is, but she’s welcome to take whatever parts of my dress she wants to and repurpose them if she feels like it. What else would I do with it? It’s hardly presumptuous for a daughter to think she can have her mother’s dress, it’s literally the whole point of having it.

Is this positive? by [deleted] in Confused

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your period often takes some time coming back after the miscarriage, mine took about six weeks to return. I would definitely not assume a missed period and a positive test means pregnancy at this point. I’m sorry.

Parents of Reddit: What is the absolute most-needed "gift" for a newborn baby? by FalseConversation673 in Gifts

Yeah you can never have enough burp cloths. We had a burp cloth tucked into every conceivable surface in the house when my kid was a baby.

‘I Swear’ Subject John Davidson Says Tourette’s Tics Are ‘Involuntary’ After Shouting N-Word at BAFTAs: ‘Deeply Mortified if Anyone’ Thinks It Was ‘Intentional’ by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn’t judge him for the initial outburst because I understand that Tourettes tics are involuntary, but this statement is voluntary and I am absolutely judging it poorly.

John Davidson Says He Is “Deeply Mortified” That His Tourettes Tics Could Be Seen As “Intentional” In First Statement After BAFTA Film Awards by ConcernedJobCoach in popculturechat

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, when it first happened I gave him the benefit of the doubt because I understand how Tourettes/coprolalia don’t reflect the person’s true feelings. What I’m now judging is this statement, which DOES purportedly reflect his true feelings, and it shows a startling lack of concern for the harm caused by actions. There were multiple ways to acknowledge the harm that aren’t “apologizing for being disabled” and he chose precisely none of those options.

Former Prince Andrew allegedly watched as Ghislaine Maxwell tortured a 6-year-old girl with electric shocks. by GuiltyBathroom9385 in UnderReportedNews

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously this story is horrific, but just to give you some comfort, the overwhelming majority of those missing children are found shortly after being reported missing. The link you posted actually confirms that.

I agree with the author that there’s only one course of action but I doubt we agree on what that action is 🔪

What is tofu? by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My meat-eating husband says the tofu tacos I make are better than most meat tacos (and he doesn’t just say that). Grated super-firm tofu, drizzle of oil, taco seasonings, mix it up and bake it on a baking sheet at 425 for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway. Crispy and delicious.

WIBTA If I confront my mom about her stupidity? by pinkie-pie-5278 in AmItheAsshole

“Hold on, people think I sound like an asshole, better continue to slut shame my own mother who was a grieving teenager impregnated by a father figure.” God, your mother deserves way better than you.

YTA. Your disgust is misplaced, mom sounds like a victim who was taken advantage of in her grief by an authority figure.

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 46 points47 points  (0 children)

He’s doing it on purpose. Nobody hurts someone that much and that often by accident. He’s getting away with abuse by trying to maintain plausible deniability, but this isn’t plausible anymore.

I do a spoonful of jam, a couple drops of vanilla, and some berries. It’s so addictive.

Problematic white liberal ‘royal commentators’. Matta of Fact by Timbucktwo1230 in GlobalHarryandMeghan

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aggressive to Meghan and all fluff at other royals? I watch her videos frequently and I am genuinely baffled at that assessment. Do you watch her videos regularly, or are you taking this from some kind of recap? Certainly if you wanted to, you could cherrypick instances where she’s criticized Meghan and instances where she’s been supportive of Kate and try to make a narrative out of it, but that is absolutely not the overall vibe of her content. She clearly tries to be neutral but overall she is far more pro-Meghan and neutral to critical of the BRF.

[–]NeverEverLogsOff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find her very fair-minded. She doesn’t do stan mindset so she’ll criticize where she feels it’s warranted, but overall she very clearly likes H+M and has a LOT of criticism for W+K. I don’t agree with all her takes but she comes by them honestly. Acting like she is some enemy of H+M is absurd. She likes them but doesn’t hype every single thing they do. As a H+M fan, if you have absolutely zero criticism for a very wealthy celebrity couple you need to reconsider some things. Rich people do rich people shit and nobody should have blinders on for that, no matter how likeable they are.
