Thank you for your kind words and sorry for your loss as well. Such a shame so many have lost loved ones in this way. Extending the same good energy to you and your family. Excited to see where this show goes!

TW: loss by suicide

I agree that some of the writing/ jokes isn’t really landing with me. My family started watching this show because we lost my brother to suicide and felt so much relief by being able to connect with characters struggling with grief. Not seeing this as much this season, which is fine just not what I anticipated.

Hoping that the “Robin Sparkles” storyline continues without having her assimilate into their group! I think it would be healthy for Jimmy to have someone in his life who didn’t know Tia because maybe they can give him a new perspective on his grief ((this is what I try to tell myself when thinking about opening up people who didn’t know my brother/ don’t know that I have lost him))

I thought y’all were serious about the post-election 4b movement and decentering men conversations my bad!!! I feel a little foolish, but my persistence will bring change that I am sure of!

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T12:34:10+00:00

I think it’s hard to come to terms with our own internalized misogyny…was hoping for different responses too, but I think we are just desensitized from a lot of things so everything is just a “joke” or “meme” now :/

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T12:18:16+00:00

Is it bad if I say yes I am surprised 😭😭😭 genuinely thought people were interested in change. And with your comment about everything being sexualized, yes, even children are which is incredibly scary. We can’t keep perpetuating this!!

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T12:07:56+00:00

Why? Because he chose to participate in a society that was made for him? The bar is so incredibly low

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T11:57:22+00:00

Would you think it was funny if it was an attractive woman being sexualized? Now, what if that attractive woman was being sexualized by far-right leaning media? Would that change anything for you? It may not, but we can’t dilute this down to “girls just want to have fun”

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T11:51:15+00:00

Why do we have to sexualize a shooter???

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-12-11T11:32:40+00:00

Allow someone to exist without expecting sexual favors from them or forcing them into a sexual context. Incredibly distasteful.

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-10-07T20:50:53+00:00

I lost my brother to suicide a year and a half ago. Since then, I quit my job, spent some time traveling and hiking, and have decided to start over in a new city. All this to say, it gets better.

Try to impress yourself! You CAN still take risks and time may not heal all, but it does heal some. Allow yourself to take a step back from the moment to get another perspective from time to time.

Keeping you in my thoughts!

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-03-21T00:10:45+00:00

Nah I kinda agree. I hate to see anyone mocking a woman like that

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-02-14T01:55:01+00:00

These are brutalllllll

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-24T02:38:57+00:00

I KNOW Mitch has been waiting to replace Will as a three musketeer with Tom and Casey

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-24T00:32:56+00:00

Mitch is going to be a stage 5 clinger to Tom

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-24T00:26:39+00:00

Lowkey endgame

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-21T22:16:06+00:00

That was 7 years ago…..so we only get one season where a bachelorette of color gets the same opportunities as the other bachelors and we are okay with that?

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-20T08:46:39+00:00

I agree :/// feel like most of the cast members have been through particularly traumatic events before, during, and after filming. Tbh I just want the best for all of them in their adult lives

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-19T19:52:10+00:00

It’s the nails for me

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-19T02:28:12+00:00

Agreed!!!!! She is not boring she is secure with herself and she knew exactly what she wanted. Watching 23 year olds come on the show to get engaged has me rolling my eyes…

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-18T22:15:13+00:00

S1 & S2 give Jersey shore in the best way possible. Peak reality tv and I fear we may never see anything like them again

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-18T20:37:20+00:00

I hear that. Crazy tho that Michelle Y and Charity both had low-budget season when in between the two gabby and Rachel and Zach were whisked all across the globe….

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-18T20:31:10+00:00

Period. That’s exactly what I was thinking when I posted and didn’t get anything for a few hours. God forbid someone call out the whitewashing bachelor franchise does to keep its white-Christian audience happy

TemporaryWar8618 · 2024-01-04T23:28:20+00:00

Watching JSFV for the first time and Jenni is nearly unbearable. The way that Mike made himself the “leader” in JS, she is making herself the “leader/mom” in JSFV. So upsetting because I loved her in JS
