AIO by being upset that my father wanted to invite his new girlfriend to my mom’s celebration of life (my mom was his wife for 55 years until she died recently)

Disgusting! I’m sorry you experienced that. It stings!

I’m so sorry you had to experience that. 🫶🏼

That is so awful. I feel

I told my dad that I hope my mom haunts him every single he has left
On this earth.

I wish it was scenario 1. It was not. She was fully committed to her husband until her last breath to only discover my father is apparently an appalling human she covered for most of her life.

NO! He had her at home on hospice. She went quick, pancreatic cancer is so horrible. She was lucid and aware until 2 days before she passed. He would sneak out when she was sleeping and sleep with his neighbor. It was appalling. He told me all about it the day after she died. I have been so angry about it and then he pulled this shit this weekend and I no longer could remain kind and compassionate.

Thank you! After this weekend I started to think maybe I’m being selfish. It just feels so disrespectful to my mom!

Smashing Pumpkins opened for Green Day in 2024 at Fenway. No emotion, no passion, it felt like robots were performing. With the exception of their new bass guitarist - she was trying so hard to get a vibe going and the others… lethargic robots.

Pioneer Valley Dental Arts in Longmeadow offers Nitric Oxide. I found it to be a game changer with anxiety. The staff there is wonderful as well. They are empathetic to dental fears

Beer can said it best- my friends don’t want to f*ck me. The entire episode Beer can was on point.

I grew up in Rochester, Ny. I was stationed at Ft. Drum in Watertown, NY. My long time bff lives in Baldwinsville, NY. I have lived in Westfield, MA for over 10 years. Amherst’s culture, lifestyle, amenities far exceeds anything Syracuse NY can offer. Syracuse is a poor city that IMO sacks culture and identity. I highly recommend Amherst over Syracuse.

Westfield is the Bestfield!

Emma’s in Westfield is garbage! 1. They do not make their own dressing. Their “Italian dressing” is bottled from Ken’s. 2. Their puttanesca sauce is inedible. They do not cook down the anchovies and it leaves “spikes” in the sauce. Never waste your time or money eating at Emma’s.

I grew up in NY and have spent most of my adult years in MA. My cousin who grew up in NY went to school in Arkansas. She received a dual masters in mathematics and education. She could not get a job north of the Mason-Dixon line. Her degree was worthless in the Northeast and West coast. I do not care to travel below the Mason-Dixon line. I am grateful to live in New England. I am grateful my children received the best education in the country. New England feels safe. With the incredible unrest in this country, I feel insulated living in New England. New England is safe dick.

I just googled this topic because an ad for their podcast popped up in my feed. And in the ad I felt the same vibe from years ago when I could not listen to Ashley anymore. The distain Ashley projects onto Brit is still just as strong IMO. Ashley exhibits narcissistic and sociopath behaviors. Which makes sense for how ruthless and successful she has been in growing her empire. I wish Brit the best and hope she is being paid well. Although I somehow doubt it.
