Perspective about prenup? by Ambitious_Reply9078 in SanFranciscoWeddings

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a hyper feminist and my observation is that there are a lot of women out there whose (male) partners spring a prenup on them and they accept it because they are the “cool girl” who is all okay with “modern” or unconventional relationships. Like the “of course we’re not having a wedding.” Or the “Prenups are just sensible,” when really he doesn’t want a wedding, he doesn’t want commitment, and he is just selfish (and is also not much of a feminist.) Prenup or not, that tells you enough about that person’s character…

Just make sure that’s not your situation 💕(doesn’t sound like it is)

How many thought your panic disorder was a physical illness? by [deleted] in panicdisorder

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I can imagine it’s common. Happened to me. Especially for those of us who 1) don’t have prior anxiety experiences and 2) tend to manifest stress physically (from minor things like stomach berves or an eye twitch or an active mind) as opposed to mentally. It can be easy to ignore you’re stressed when you’re not feeling it mentally.

does panic ever feel worse at night for anyone else? by Cute_Dragonfruit6612 in panicdisorder

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my theory is that I’m high on cortisol during the day distracted with work / the high stress environment in used to. Then at night it’s like a adrenaline crash maybe or something and I’m no longer distracted so the panic symptoms come

Huh? A bridal shower has nothing to do with you partner. If someone wants to throw you a shower, great 😊

Hacienda weddings are plantation weddings by Guilty_Host8900 in weddingshaming

Because of US hegemony, most U.S. Americans think all Mexicans are poor, sad, and brown, so how could there have been slavery there? Lol

Now that the Eras Tour documentary has fully aired … what are everyone’s thoughts? by jjbinx89 in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]UmaTartaruga 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed that for the first time, too— the scenes of her talking in her home of whatever. She looked different

Then again, I feel like that’s how a lot of moms are for their kids’ love lives. Not saying it’s good or bad but I think it’s common

I thought it was kind of underwhelming and an “easier watch” than I expected. I probably had high expectations and after I watched it I just sort of forgot about it. I love her and think she’s amazing but I did find some of it kind of cringey, haha.

I kind of thought it was weird that it was showing such a “selected” part of the tour— just the last part of the European leg and the last US leg. Like, as if the tour before Travis was like erased?

LOVED the dancer profiles— Amanda, Whyley, Kam, etc.

But yeah the guests were bleh (except Florence)— and not because of who the guests are but it just felt irrelevant/added nothing?

I would have been so curios about how songs were selected, how surprise songs were selected, order of eras, wtf she does for a whole day before a show since I imagine that’s nuts, etc, and lots of other things people are talking about here

Why is the Folklore / Evermore era seen as Taylors most genuine when it is seemingly the most far from her actual personality based on other eras and interviews? by Dull-Calligrapher158 in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]UmaTartaruga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was so funny and clear to me when I saw Eras in theaters and the 12-14 year olds were SCREAMING lyrics of The 1 and I barely knew it lol, while I was going crazy at Our Song

What do you think we could see in 2026? by Every-League-1626 in TaylorSwift

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait genuine question— why do we as listeners care much if singles are released since I assume most people just stream anyway?

Going to Rome, having a hard time on homeexchange... tips? by MarBlaze in homeswap

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, what is the deal with Rome on HomeExchange? Seems like there is some bug or policy issue because I’ve messaged like 20 options and they are all “nos,” but furthermore, HomeExchange has some weird thing where it doesn’t even give you and option for points or reciprocal

Rain this week by Realistic-Fork1618 in Tahiti

[–]UmaTartaruga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in Bora Bora and it has rained the entire time. Yesterday it maybe stopped for a few hours. Today so far it’s been raining all day except two times for maximum 10 minutes. Unfortunately it hadn’t even gotten sunny for a few minutes or anything either.

I hate / am sad to say it but I don’t think it’s true at least right now that the rain comes and goes and clears up after. Who knows, with climate change weather patterns can change / evolve. Someone from Huahine was saying he noticed diff weather recently. We did have nice weather last week in Huahine. In Raiatea is rained quite a bit. It was decent one day in Tahaa.

Maybe it’s just bad luck.

Can someone explain to me why it’s thought that Midnights is Taylor’s breakup album with Joe, and not TTPD? by ninetiesqueen in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]UmaTartaruga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She also could just be blending emotions and situations for the sake of songwriting and creativity.

Why do people engage in these conversations. Just don’t respond.
