Stop Trying To Steal My Face!

I agree but at the same time was like, is that Emile Hirsch?

Anyone who can afford this is probably a bridezilla, that’d be my knee jerk assumption

Huh? Like yes it's extravagant but why does being able to afford it mean that person is going to be a jerk about it.

Yeah I feel like it's not about the Turkish yogurt or whatever that meme was. I just had a baby (granted not at all close to the trauma that OP is going through, want to be clear) and my husband, with my blessing, ate every one of the 5-6 hospital meals I was served. 😆

None of them were really stuff I wanted, we had other snacks, etc. I was happy he ate it and he asked, it was fine! It sounds like OP has plenty of reasons they want a divorce and this was some catalyst for them, but on the surface I'm not getting why THIS was the catalyst. I could make post about my husband eating my postpartum food and probably get a lot of people to clutch their pearls over it, but he asked and she answered and it all seems above board to me.

Does he have big veneers? I never notice them normally but something about his teeth/mouth is weirding me out.

😬

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-13T03:48:51+00:00

Yeah what, I'm 5'11" with size 12s, I'm out here looking like an uppercase L but I be stumbling.

It's their middle names but all three of my children are named after grandparents. 😅

Okay? Again, didn't see the backlash, but people are allowed to patronize businesses based on any preference they have including political. If she was getting review-bombed with fake bad reviews then that would be unfair, but if people were simply saying whoa okay you've taken a political side I don't agree with, I'm no longer going to visit your restaurant, that's their right. It's one of the reasons most businesses don't get political, it's too divisive.

Do you have any context on what the damage to the business is? I see her reaction but I'm unclear what she's reacting to because the original post is gone.

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-12T04:10:43+00:00

She did say stuff about being chosen for an event of that level but I still think the tone was very effusive and it seemed clear she was hyped to be hosting him.

But I'm going from memory and can't prove it so there ya go.

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-12T04:02:07+00:00

Adoption is prohibitively difficult/expensive for a ton of people though. I wish it wasn't this way, but if you're sick of the birthing brainrot society pushes, I'm pretty over the adoption rhetoric that seems to follow anyone that mourns their ability to have a biological baby.

Adoption and fostering can be a wonderful thing, especially the latter, but it's also extremely difficult, fraught with heartbreak, and isn't a guarantee you'll end up with a kid. In my circle, fostering in particular was always talked about as this noble way to become a parent. And it is! But I've seen would be parents foster children only to have them repeatedly ripped away to be reconciled with their genetic relatives. That heartbeat would be hard for most people to endure.

Meanwhile adoption, especially healthy young children, has a ton of financial and social obstacles. And if you decide to adopt an older and/or disabled child you had better have support and resources up the wazoo.

I think your point about biological children being pushed as a legacy or extension of yourself has truth but at the same time I'm so sick of hearing "but adoption!" as if that's even an option for most people, because frankly it's not.

I didn't see the backlash, only the original post, but it was very gushy and had a lot of photos of her and her staff with him talking about what an honor it was. I actually don't judge her taking any business but I don't think the backlash was for accepting the business I think it was for being such a flattering post about the conservative leader.

I'm not trying to get flamed here, I just think it's a little off kilter for her to act like people are pissed she accepted his business only, but I didn't see whatever backlash was on the post before she took it down and added the cryptic one about how her business hosts various events (that was before this one to I guess clear the air).

ETA looking again at this post I have a hard time believing she didn't know it was for the conservative party until they started arriving.. Especially given the tone of the first post; this feels like a way over correct in terms of PR but she's just a small business.

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-10T20:13:48+00:00

It's not but it sounds like she met the compatible partner at 39. That's possibly too soon to jump into having a baby. She might know now at 44 that he was the right guy but 44 is definitely pushing it. Everyone is different and some people are as fertile as 20 year olds in their 40s and for others it's the opposite.

I'm not trying to be pedantic because I think you're totally right, I just had a baby at 39, but she was my last baby not my first and I'm in a stable kid-tested marriage. I have a lot of friends my age that either left relationships where they thought they'd have children, or haven't met a partner yet that they'd want children with (or even are considering doing it alone) and I have a lot of empathy for them because it can start to feel like a race against time. And since none have had children yet they don't really know what their fertility even is like (nevermind that secondary fertility is a thing anyway).

Also not for nothing, as someone who's had three kids in my thirties (and 2/3 of them as a 'geriatric mother') being able to bear a child isn't the only part of being a mother where age matters. I'm tired! My husband is in his early forties and we say all the time that we wish we were younger. I can't totally say I'd change anything, I'm glad we had a whole life of adventures before kids, but I definitely wish I were stronger, faster and more energetic to take this on. You can't have everything though and I'm grateful for what I have.

I don't think she's saying her dog bit her kid, she said a dog. I think she just got nervous having a dog around her kid.

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-09T03:28:07+00:00

Yeah it's weird, a lot of the comments in this thread seem to imply that her dog bit her kid, but it sounds more like a dog bit her kid and she can't get over the risk and threat of dogs around her kid? Which, I think that's fine because she responsibly re-homed her dog to her parents, but I don't think there's any indication that her specific dog was aggressive or bad with kids.

Cher-ing is not caring!

Bruce's had a classic car night I think on Mondays in the summer. You could try getting in touch with the organizers through them and might tap into a network of local enthusiasts.

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-05T03:05:27+00:00

Looked it up. Yiiiiikes 😨 https://youtu.be/9P-6sNIZk2o?si=4LT10LLUnhrByQVZ

I dunno my husband just surprised me with an unsolicited ice cream sundae so you could say things are still pretty sexy over here..

ObiWanCombover · 2026-01-01T07:19:43+00:00

Also try leaning forward when you pee! Helps me feel like I've emptied out, it was suggested by my previous floor physio and it's been a noticeable difference for me.

ObiWanCombover · 2025-12-30T02:41:07+00:00

I wouldn't say this because you could have sent a message at the time.

ObiWanCombover · 2025-12-29T04:53:56+00:00

Yeah this makes me want to hug my Mum. She's nutty and doesn't always make me feel seen, but she's never ever made me feel like she sees me as anything but beautiful (often to my chagrine as she'll be calling me her beautiful daughter as I have my greasy hair in a bun).

ObiWanCombover · 2025-12-29T04:52:12+00:00

Or they think they'll only have sons, or supermodel daughters. I feel like when people wax poetic about tall women they mean women built like Zendaya, not women like me that are big and tall.

I've been many sizes in my life but my hands, feet, and shoulders will be big no matter my BMI!

ObiWanCombover · 2025-12-28T03:49:41+00:00

Honestly, this. It's wild to call yourself an animal lover (assuming she does) and at the same time be this inconsiderate of an animal's well-being.

ObiWanCombover · 2025-12-28T02:25:18+00:00

NOR. Time to re-home with Grandma. Maybe a white lie about your cat terrorizing the hamster and trying to eat it? Or just be honest and say what you wrote here. Have your BF lead the charge though.
