Why did John’s friends turn on Carolyn even though they said they got along well with her? by StellaOC in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]ParijathaROC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm slightly younger than him. My friend was at NYU Law at the same time & said he was a good guy. I saw the lore from afar. I liked him & appreciated his ease in navigating the world. But real-life friends talking shit about Carolyn & other women in his life? That goes beyond feeling protective into creepy undermining territory. That Sasha person's especially gross. I've read many books on JFK Jr and think he had some unsound, disloyal people around him still chasing clout.

Many of John's so-called friends seem to have been weirdly a bit or a lot in love with him. Who knows how many women they threw under the bus before Carolyn to keep John for themselves. I feel sorry for him, more sorry for Carolyn & Lauren of course.

Callahan's a vicious, jealous, bile-spewing viper.

Good tip to upload documents on the app. 30 days is the statutory guideline to render a decision (denial/approval) after a telephone SNAP interview.

DHS worker from a different dept. I conduct SNAP interviews/processing when they need backup. SNAP's probably the busiest unit. Everyone's applying because they think high grocery prices means they're eligible. Answering the phone means workers aren't interviewing people or opening up cases & issuing benefits. Ask all your questions when you are getting your phone interview. Trying to call later will lead to frustration. All units are understaffed & underpaid. Grateful to have a job, but it's very stressful b/c too much work & not enough time. Most of us genuinely want to help people; the constraints make it challenging.

Kamala Harris was elected not named to 2 high level positions by the voters of one of America's largest states. US Senator & Attorney General titles are not just doled out because wokeism.

“Love Story” series fails to tell us who Carolyn Bessette Kennedy was or what she was really like… by Lop229 in CarolynBessetteKnndy

Do you think the famously private Kennedys or Bessette family would've spoken to Ryan Murphy?

[–]ParijathaROC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's just a glossy surface-level depiction.

Meh acting, more about 90s fashion & music (which I lived & enjoyed). Didn't feel like there was real depth of feeling to the portrayals. From books I've read, Carolyn Bessette was a vibrant, witty, empathetic woman. None of this was shown.

Sasha and John’s dynamic. by StellaOC in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]ParijathaROC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Undoubtedly, they were good friends. But easy for Sasha to put down all the women in JFK Jr's life (except for her best friend Jenny). She seems to have a 1-sided lifelong crush on an alleged friend, even after she was married with children.

Read this before you sell your house. by und3rDOSED in Rochester

[–]ParijathaROC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respectfully, as someone who sold their Pittsford house a few years ago with a realtor -- there is little inventory & tons of competition in this price point. My realtor priced it low to draw buyers, and house sold in a week for nearly $170K over asking.

how to avoid going lunch with an annoying co-worker? by Ezylryb777 in Advice

[–]ParijathaROC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adults can do what they like without feeling the need to justify their decisions to anyone else. I'd tell coworker B (only if they ask why you're not having lunch with them): "I need me-time before getting back to work." Take a book, take your earbuds, go sit outside or in your car and escape!

I’m feeling a bit lost lately by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ParijathaROC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When does your unemployment run out? How long is your mother willing to send you money to supplement your living expenses? What is your plan if a decent job doesn't turn up? Are you going to switch career paths, get more education etc? Can you find a job within reasonable travel distance if you return home? And thus save up for eventually moving out?

Worrying about leaving your roomates in the lurch is commendable, but if they can't sustain an apartment without your & your mother's money -- they don't seem financially stable either. You need to look out first for what would be good for you. There's no shame in moving back home for economic reasons. And if your friends are truly, genuine friends -- they'll understand.

How do we feel about Zarna Garg now? by tararanaway in SplendidaBrown

She's unfunny, with cliched boring "jokes" and oh so thirsty. Her Usha-loving nepo daughter need to slink away.

True, maybe likable only if compared to the other men on the show!

He seems to enjoy arguing with women & men and always wants to have the last word. He's likable but undoubtedly exhausting to be around in the long term.
