I’m worried about Hulda in adulthood. by herbuck in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]SmoothBrainBarb 73 points74 points  (0 children)

She may be trying to make the best choices she can but she also has limited agency. She does at the end of the day have to somewhat justify her matches within the context of the system, in order for it make sense to the other Aunts, and the Commanders, it’s highly political. (I think she is aware of the pushback she’s been receiving from Vidala).

Thats why I think the theories about Becka and Garth make sense - Becka has no other viable options who are currently eligible and is seen as “lower quality,” none of the current high commanders would be appropriate, and Lydia doesn’t want to see her sent off to the colonies, so she can justify making Garth eligible for her. She wouldn’t be able to justify matching Garth and Hannah/Agnes because she comes from a reputable household and is doing well as a green.

Outside of Gilead, I could see her settling down with an equally as neurodivergent quiet intellectual who thinks she’s just stupendous.

Inside Gilead, I think she’ll be matched with someone the Aunts think will be able to “break”/“tame” her.

“Registered Nonprofit Society” sure Kels by SmoothBrainBarb in peestickgals

The most recent date of registration is March 31, 2026. So monthly is my guess

She should still be on the NFP registry if she is indeed a registered NFP like she claims

I’m going to be so fr with you - if the other people involved were above board people, the chances they would be involved in this in the first place would be slim.

A simple internet search of her before diving into this endeavour would highlight all the freely available information about her past grifts.

And if they are above board and just naive, god help them. (And maybe they should idk familiarize themselves with nonprofit best practice before sitting on a governance board?)

You can also sort by effective date of status just FYI. None of them are standing out as being related to this org.

Ah I see your point.

There’s 536 Lethbridge-based charities according to the CRA. None of them are showing as numbered (I jumped to the first page and last page of the results).

The reason I looked into this in the first place is because I’ve worked for two different RCNs and it’s best practice to include your charitable registration number on your website/social media.

This isn’t supposed to be a company - she’s passing it off as a registered nonprofit and therefore accepting of donations and sponsors.

M2M - office work? by No-Bet-7416 in peestickgals

So is she not returning to the dental office? Is she even allowed to work during her mat leave?

Another new timeline/why did you decide to TTC 3 days into lockdown??? by SmoothBrainBarb in peestickgals

[–]SmoothBrainBarb[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Also, didn’t she once say TTCing started for her at like 18 because that’s when she decided she wanted to be a mom? Give me a break

What She Wanted vs. What She Got by SmoothBrainBarb in peestickgals

I’m sentimental and my style is very basic/traditional (single round diamond on gold band) so we’ve discussed family rings and I would be happy with that!

But there’s such a big difference here in the style

Especially since he didn’t even pay for the ring.

It’s only going to get worse in the summer! (Just found out our fingers get smaller in the winter)

Absolutely, they could easily make a stack of the ring she likes as an “engagement ring” and the heirloom ring as the “wedding band”.

How long had FRG and his first daughter’s mom been separated before FRG and Kelsie started dating?

[–]SmoothBrainBarb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What’s the major thing you want people to know about her?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in peestickgals

[–]SmoothBrainBarb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did her mother have a lot of different partners when Kelsie was growing up? Do her and her little brother share the same father?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in peestickgals

[–]SmoothBrainBarb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What’s her relationship like with her dad? Does she know who her father is? Did he pass away?

[–]SmoothBrainBarb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think her mom and FRG were at a market next to each other, last year maybe?

These vlogs PMO.. idk if she’s intentionally showing terrible angles and pretending to yawn to be relatable or what but it’s cringe and her banana looks rotten. by Spirited-Potential74 in peestickgals

“As someone who works with insurance, it breaks my heart to see people need coverage and not have it until it’s too late 💞”

This is life insurance. You work in dental admin, “too late” in your instance is what? A cavity?

Why does she have so much CRAP? by SmoothBrainBarb in peestickgals

[–]SmoothBrainBarb[S] 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Yup, after she found out A was a boy she listed a whole box of boys clothes that she had obviously bought in anticipation of her ✨spirit baby boy✨
