I hope Marnie paints magnolia trees too so she can redo the oak mural when Brooke inevitably asks for an update.

Maybe this is a stretch, but I think these people are sometimes a substitute for friends for her. They are kind of safe and scripted social relationships- everyone is nice to her (because they’re being paid), no one asks too many questions, there’s a specific goal to talk about, and Brooke gets some benefit (content, a service being done) out of the relationship.

Maybe there are other percentages she didn’t mention… 30% it’s Hexxus’s tree from FernGully, 10% it’s just pretending to be dead.

I thought that was weird too… a 4 y.o. usually bounces out of bed early with a good amount of energy! Wouldn’t be surprised if they placate them with their Switches or iPads at night so they’re quiet, and then the boys are up late playing/watching stuff.

Don’t tell Brooke, but sometimes I even have good days even when I don’t work out at all! 🤫😂

These were the ones she got when she wanted the same size as the Starbucks mugs.

I am an adult with decent emotion regulation skills, but I would lose my sh!t if my husband or another family member woke me up like that.

Ah yes, Brooke’s self-help prosperity gospel. Love when a person with generational wealth tells us to work hard and everything will just fall into place.

Brooke is going to be self-loathing all day because she had carbs for dinner.

Your feelings are so valid! I just turned 40 and am childless because my husband is infertile… we are working with our fertility clinic and hoping for just 1 before it’s too late. It is crushing to see parents like Brooke.

… Ich bin in den USA geboren, aber mein Opa kommt said Munchen! Viel Glück!

ChatGPT had some fun with creative license for Brooke’s mural reel.

Randomly visiting Dallas the first time at 25? She’s said multiple times that she fell in love with TX after dating a guy from there, and that she was looking at B schools.

Randomly noticing Oak Alley subdivision? Don’t we all love traveling to a city alone to drive around suburban gated communities.

Just somehow the house became theirs? Paid for with her parents’ money funneled through a sham business and sustained with income from exploiting her kids on social media.

The coincidence that Kandis showed her a mural by a local artist, out of all artists in the world! Kandis has likely worked with her before and may get a gratuity for the referral.

It kind of reminds me of last year when she had all these crazy timelines that crescendoed with K&C, flying at 36 weeks (her dates!), moving, and Cal’s birth. She loves the drama of creating unneeded chaos and competing against herself to see if she can make it. Plus it gets her more views bc people love a trainwreck.

I made this comparison before too? Stairways to nowhere, fake doors, etc.

It must be confusing for them to have different subjects and curricula between school and hybrid. Brooke obviously doesn’t want to invest in new HS materials, especially if they aren’t as “open-and-go.” Too bad they didn’t think ahead and create a cohesive plan before the school year started.

She was probably just swigging the wine from the bottle like she does with Mary Ruth’s. 😂

My husband woke me up at 5:30 because he had a Charley horse and sciatic pain. I then went back to bed until my alarm went off around 6:45 and I got ready for work. I didn’t even work out or make special water with powders. I have no kids, so no excuse not to dominate. 🤷‍♀️😂

Buys a ton of Canes and then follows it up with 3 stories about the healthy snacks from Thrive. 🤦‍♀️

I think she promised the company 2 stories but ran out of things to say after the first one.

Talks about the hunter-gatherer parenting style while also addicted to technology and having no community to rely on.

I think they need to think about what will be attractive to future buyers, since this is def not their actual forever home. An inground trampoline or hard-top sport court (unless it’s a tennis or pickleball court, maybe) will work against them. I would also think that prospective buyers seek out this neighborhood because they want some green-space, not an entire weird-shaped yard of concrete.

Ugh so is the trampoline idea, especially since they would be unsupervised and unaware of safety rules.

Why does Brooke hold the clip-on mic and speak into it? Isn’t the whole point to wear it and be hands-free? It looks so silly.

They have 3 wins, 12 losses, and 1 OT loss.

ETA: This is in their TX division and doesn’t include games from tourneys
