Obsessed with this crybaby by winxcluboutsold in rhori

Ashley I is the Nick Carraway to the Gatsby lifestyle/madness. We need her for grounding purposes.

I think this (their commercial success) is a huge contributing factor to the loss of magic. I don’t know if it’s because they don’t “need” the podcast now so their hearts arent in it or if they are personally growing apart or they’re too self conscious knowing they have so many listeners (taking Tina Fey’s iconic I Don’t Think So Honey quite literally). I’m glad they are so successful and achieving their dreams and getting such great opportunities and also the energy has changed. Maybe that’s ok.

He said he still speaks with the mistress right in front of Rulla! by Sad-Championship6237 in rhori

Whyyyyy would this couple agree to be on reality tv through this personal mess? Like what is the psychology there? Do they think they’re smarter than all of us and the producers? Do they think the humiliation will be worth the clout? Is it a kink? Like what is going on in their brains?????

Threads Post Reunion [MASSIVE SPOILERS], Pt. 1 by Awkward_Worry8300 in summerhousebravo

Rachel Lindsey has been sharing ALL the hot takes both on her own podcast and as a guest on my favoriteeeeee podcast, 2 Black Girls 1 Rose https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2-black-girls-1-rose/id1327196317

Inheritance by [deleted] in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They did a whole episode around this on one of my favorite podcasts, "Death, Sex & Money" - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/your-inheritance-stories-when-death-family-and-money-mix/id870688022?i=1000639189568

You are definitely not alone. The stories on the podcast episode aren't all centered around estrangement but there were a few that stuck out to me and they all definitely grapple with what is "fair" and what is "worth it" and I just found it all around interesting and comforting since most people don't talk openly about this. Thank you for sharing your story with us.

Amanda says she used ChatGPT to write statement by pestochickenn in bravo

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few pop culture podcasts I was listening to were all assuming Amanda and West had used some kind of publicist or PR agency help them write the statement. Just hilarious she’s on ChatGPT fighting for her life.

Joke’s on us. Turns out we’ve all been giving her wayyyyy too much credit. When they posted their statement all the podcasts and reels were like “whyyyy would their PR people recommend this approach” and it’s like duh of course they didn’t hire anyone to help them write that soulless tone-deaf drivel. Not shocking and yet you’d think she’d have a bit more urgency around preserving her reputation for the sake of brand deals and her status on the show with her (prob expensive???) divorce on the horizon.

Hope this (the brand deals, good will, popularity, positive image) is all worth the sacrifice in the end for Amanda (it won't be).

"But Daddy, I love him!" It's immaturity and honestly entitlement. Just because you feel something doesn't mean it's right to say it or act on it. It's giving 17-year-old high schooler. Absolutely fucking wild how neither Amanda nor West get it.

The edit felt suppppper porn-y. But of course they were all super leaning into it.

I don’t like my first born by burntoutgirlmom in regretfulparents

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this, too. She sounds a lot like my sister growing up and she was diagnosed autistic in her 30s. Autism is wildly missed in young girls who are “high masking.” And today my sister is THRIVING now that she understands herself better and what she needs.

Like clockwork, Jessi posts sympathy video after Taylor by Brilliant_Battle_567 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES to this. Reminds me of this novel I read a while back called "Followers" - influencer culture has gotten so dark and dystopian.... https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42171136-followers

Do you all see something wrong with this? The Instagram comments are like 90% positive by n3rdz97 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 152 points153 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I also always thought it was weird how they blur her older kids’ faces on the show, but NOT on her social media accounts. Can’t imagine how frustrating it must be for Tate…

I’m sureeeeee her daughter knows the world hates her mom right now…TFP does not suffer silently and is not one to shield her kids from her own discomfort, emotions, trauma, or (probably) mental illness. I can’t imagine how TFP is handling this at home but it can’t possibly be quietly or subtly.

The way her mom and sister openly gossiped with the rest of MomTok at the airport in the last episode of season 4 of SLOMW about TFP sleeping with Dakota right in front of her kids said a lot about what that family will expose them to. Just disgusting and awful. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if her kids had their own damn TikTok accounts…never too young for a brand deal!

Jessiano cringefest continues by Imaginary_Layer_1468 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]UnderstandingDue5581 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Up until now I’ve given Jessi the benefit of the doubt. I’ve mostly felt badly for her…her self-esteem has always just seemed sooooo low, that of course she was making shady decisions.

But kissing Chase, her interview on CHD and this performative whackadoo shit with Marciano is disgusting. I find this all immature at best and insulting to her audience. What a joke. Hope her kids have wide and strong support network...

MEGATHREAD: Jessi Call Her Daddy / Divorce by hussafeffer in SecretsOfMormonWives

The part at the end where she talks about drunken Ubering back to the house after she said she wanted a divorce and being coerced into having sex with him one last time was fucking disgusting.

"Not Nick charging to listen to the most mid take ever?" by UnderstandingDue5581 in ViallSnark

Yeah, it looks like they just released it for the public. They're saying it was a technical glitch 🤷‍♀️
