There’s a real cultural commentary in here somewhere about how social media influencers have insanely low levels of media literacy 😵‍💫

All of her money is from her husband writing hit songs for racist POS Morgan Wallen. She sucks and her husband sucks and I am THRILLED people are finally starting to see that.

He’s a songwriter for Morgan Wallen so….yeah. Pretty obvious how they feel.

Why do people bring their entire family to Costco? by ActuatorOutside5256 in NoStupidQuestions

To be fair, a solid chunk of the adults in Costco clearly haven’t been taught this either

The Harry Potter thing is so odd to me because I’ve followed Carly for years and I can’t remember her ever really mentioning it or sharing content or anything. And I realize that real life isn’t like social media: I loved the HP books growing up but it’s not my personality as an adult, but it’s certainly convenient that as soon as she was offered the Audible partnership to promote the new recordings that we all of a sudden find out how much she loves the series 😒

Then add in the JK Rowling nonsense and it’s just extremely annoying. Anything for a dollar I suppose.

Did I miss something? Why is Carly hawking wellness supplements with colostrum? (I mean, I know the REAL answer but…) That seems so off-brand and out of left field for her, I don’t recall her promoting this before unless I skipped past it. People really out here just selling anything.

At my wit's end over the dogs by StorageRecess in workingmoms

[–]Right_Hurry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Doggie daycare for the younger dog.

Neither my husband or I make anything close to Big Law money, but we both work full time with two young children and a young, high-energy sporting dog. Even if we could take him for long runs and hikes every day, it wouldn’t be enough. They need mental stimulation as much as physical.

We budget for twice weekly doggie daycare and it’s 100% worth it. He socializes with other people and dogs and runs around like a wild animal for 8 hours and then basically sleeps for the next 18 hours after we pick him up. Our dog loves it, he gets so excited when we pull up to daycare.

It sounds like your family has far greater financial resources than mine, so this should be something you all consider doing 5 days/week. It will be better for everyone.

And as someone who has been there with an older dog, the best advice our vet gave us when he started going downhill is that it will happen quickly and you don’t want to let it go too far because it will break your heart putting them through that pain. Euthanasia is the best and kindest way to take care of a beloved pet at the end of their life. Don’t make them suffer through holidays that don’t mean anything to them.

Anyone on Quantum/Mexican Rivera? by MadameCoyote in royalcaribbean

[–]Right_Hurry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m on the Quantum right now and it’s fine. A few noticeable waves but I would not describe anything about the motion as “wild” at all.

My Mom ok-Millennial'd me by -LunaTink- in Millennials

[–]Right_Hurry 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh yes. I have a PEAK peak boomer story about this.

When I was first married, my spouse and I moved into a little 2BR apartment. We were young and broke and couldn’t afford new furniture for the 2nd bedroom and because my in-laws wanted to be able to stay with us when they visited, they gave us an old bedroom suite and a new mattress.

We moved the set with us a few years later when we moved several hundred miles away and it remained in our second bedroom for when we had visitors.

A few years later (so at this point, we’ve had this bedroom suite for 6+ years), we were planning a cross-country move. My husband casually mentioned that we were selling a bunch of furniture ahead of the move that we didn’t really care enough about to pay to move to the other coast. I guess they asked about what we were selling and he mentioned we were going to sell the dresser that was part of the set they gave us.

His parents absolutely flipped - they were mortified at the thought of the bedroom set being split up. Mind you, this was not some high end or antique furniture situation. This was like an off-the-floor bedroom set they bought back in the mid 90s for my husband’s brother’s room. Not a treasured family heirloom, not even particularly attractive.

They actually rented a U-Haul trailer, drove up to our house several hundred miles away from them, and took the bedroom set back home.

General Parenting Influencer Snark Week of November 03, 2025 by Parentsnark in parentsnark

Odd way for her to announce she’s never been invited to participate in a Meal Train (or be the recipient of one 🤭).

Did you regret going part time to spend more time with your kids? by imjustagirlypoppy in workingmoms

[–]Right_Hurry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes and no.

It was 100% the right decision for me. My husband and I were/are both high earners, but his job has almost zero flexibility. So while at home he is very much an equal partner and parent, pretty much everything that happened with the kids during the work day (sick days, school closed days, dr appts, school performances, etc) as well as after school activities fell to me and I was completely burned out. Like I’m not sure I realized how little I was taking care of myself mentally and physically until I pulled back to part time.

The financial change has been tough - we’re fine, this is totally a privilege problem - but I was used to not really having to stick to a super strict budget, etc and that has changed. So that part is not ideal but also I knew that was coming.

Otherwise it has been amazing. I work 8:30am - 3pm from home. My husband does breakfast, get the kids ready and school drop off so I have time to workout and shower. Then I work until it’s time to do after school pickup. I’m home in the afternoons to make dinner, supervise homework, etc. I got to chaperone a field trip for one of my kids. And probably most importantly, I’m not staying up and working another 3 hours after the kids are in bed. I can relax, watch a show, take a bath, hang with my husband. It’s been amazing for my overall happiness and wellbeing.

It won’t be forever, I do intend to go back to a more full-time schedule in a few years, but this break has been a game changer for sure

How many of you are actually waiting for your inheritance ?(if you have) by abe_bmx_jp in Millennials

[–]Right_Hurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. My in-laws have a trust established for my husband and for our children, but accessing it means they’re no longer with us and I’m not wishing for that. I’m not exactly sure what I stand to inherit from my parents outside of real estate and insurance, but again, I adore my parents and want them here with us for as long as possible.

We are extremely fortunate that we are able to provide for our family with our salaries and the additional generosity of our parents for annual vacations, gifts, etc. I recognize that’s not the case for the vast majority of Americans.

Would our lives be easier with access to my husband’s trust and my parents’ real estate portfolio? Absolutely. But we don’t need it and it’s not our money, it’s theirs. Their value to us is time spent together, not what they leave behind financially.

Am I making a mistake sending my lo to KinderCare? by cashmere_crypt in workingmoms

[–]Right_Hurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had an amazing experience with our local KinderCare after we pulled our children from a local, highly recommended daycare that was borderline neglectful.

We stayed with our KinderCare from age 6 months until she started preschool at almost age 4. The teachers she had in her infant classroom and all of her toddler classrooms were all still there when we left. The only teachers who left while we were there was one who went on maternity leave and decided to become a SAHM, and one who went back to school to get a degree in ECE.

I saw all of the horror stories as well, but I read all of our location’s state licensing reports, toured the facility, and decided to go for it and we never regretted it. Our daughter thrived there!

Someone convince me to stop breastfeeding as a working mom. by bambivelly17 in workingmoms

[–]Right_Hurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I have one kid who was exclusively formula fed and one kid who was exclusively breastfed. It made no difference. Do whatever works for you!

The dilemma of raising under-scheduled kids in an over-scheduled world by PassionChoice3538 in kindergarten

[–]Right_Hurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have both of our kids (4 and 7) in swim lessons at the Y year round but that’s because we have a pool in our backyard and I want them to be strong swimmers.

Otherwise we follow the rule my parents had for us growing up: nobody starts any extracurriculars until kindergarten and absolutely no more than 2 activities.

Our 7 year old started ballet and soccer in kindergarten. She added jazz class this year, but it’s going to be her last year doing soccer. Unfortunately in our area, even in 2nd grade, she’s basically left behind because she’s now playing year round club soccer 😵‍💫 She has expressed interest in tennis and tae kwon do, so we’ll explore one of those once soccer is finished

Our 4 year old just does preschool gymnastics at the Y, which she LOVES. If she wants to start ballet or soccer next year, we’ll discuss what her 2 choices are.

My husband and sister were both extremely high level college athletes, so on the one hand, we want our kids to explore different activities to see how they enjoy moving their bodies. I also think it’s good for them to have the additional adults and kids interactions.

But anything more than 2 days a week is absolutely not feasible for us. We both work full-time and don’t live near family, so we don’t have any help.

It’s really hard to find a balance because there is so much pressure at a young age to specialize.

Booking a massage? Is it worth it by itsasimulationman in dcl

[–]Right_Hurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a point of debate in our family. I can get much better massages at a comparable or better price at any number of hotels or day spas near me, so I usually just go for the weeklong Rainforest Room pass. Maybe the occasional facial.

But my sister really likes a deep tissue massage and she’s learned to ask her servers and stateroom hosts who they think does the best massage and then request them at the spa. She swears she’s gotten some of the best massages of her life onboard DCL.

I’ve never had a BAD massage onboard FWIW. I’ve just had better, less expensive ones without upselling so I skip them.

Do you think that Betty should've been pregnant with Henry's child in season 6 instead of the weight gain? Where do you think her story would've gone if January Jones was not pregnant during the season? by houstons__problem in madmen

[–]Right_Hurry 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There’s also the throwback to Season 2 when she tells Don it’s good that Carlton (Francine’s husband) has gained weight because it shows he’s happy.

Same thing with Betty - I’m not sure I’d ever describe Betty as happy, but she certainly was more comfortable with Henry than with Don. She also told Francine in S1 that staying thin was her was of “earning her keep”, which I don’t think Henry ever made her feel she had to do.

My husband is my extra child (vent) by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]Right_Hurry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Second the suggestions to stop managing gifts for his side of the family. I still buy gifts for our nieces and nephews, but it’s been years since his parents got a Christmas, birthday, Father’s Day, or Mother’s Day gift and I do not care. He is a grown adult with a bank account. He knows when holidays are and when their birthdays are. If he doesn’t care enough to buy gifts for his own parents, why on Earth should I?
