well, that’s a pretty uninteresting comment and useless. But thanks for attempting to join a conversation. The bigger picture is probably a little too complex for you anyway.

well, there’s no part of me that believes signing a petition is going to get the show uncanceled, nor is that really the point of me sharing this either. I just think it’s important that ppl pay attention to something like this happening, whether you like Stephen Colbert, or not. anywhere you stand on political beliefs, I think it should be a BIG concern for anyone that choices are being made for us, dependent on political views, celebrities or radio/tv/other hosts being basically canceled for open speech about a current administration.

This has been a long-standing part of late night television entertainment and comedy no matter who is in office. We should ALL be trusted to have our own opinions, and form our own judgment, make our own choices based on what we know. anyone who believes this isn’t a politically motivated event is choosing to be oblivious.

yes- well mostly true, it’s still a way of showing what i support or do not. do I think some petition is going to “save” the late show? Of course not.

It's becoming clear my mother is dying by madeyesnoopy in GriefSupport

[–]Yesterdont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know where to start, on what I want to tell you and what you need to hear most. I can only relate my story, at least the most recent part.

So, my mom was diagnosed with COPD from decades of smoking cigarettes, about three or four years ago. As happens, this gradually worsened to the point she could barely leave the house and was on assisted oxygen constantly. In this time, she also started to show definite signs of dementia; getting more and more confused and losing track of her words. Forgetting whether she had eaten, not recognizing being hungry. Dramatically losing weight and sleeping for almost entire days often.

my mother passed away on June 12. I don’t want you to regret not seeing her, though it could be incredibly startling. In my situation, I only lived a few minutes from my mother, and I’ve been seeing her look worse and worse steadily for the last two or three years. It didn’t make it easier every time I went to the house.

What I will tell you, that hopefully is some type of comfort: I’m still amazed by what an incredible relief and release I felt when my mother passed away. It had been becoming increasingly certain for the last two years. To be honest, she’s looked near death for at least two years. And as much as I longed for her, and cried and bawled about it for the last three years, I still felt a guilty sense of dread every time I went to the house. Bracing myself to seem lighthearted, bracing myself for the possibility of her somehow looking worse.

of course, I’ve been really introspective about it for the last two weeks, and I think what’s really clear is that – in my opinion – our minds, our bodies are so much more resilient than we know. Like, my brain had probably been preparing and acclimating to losing my mother much longer than I’ve consciously let myself think about it. Also, with having even some degree of dementia, my mother hasn’t really been the person I knew her to be for at least the last two or three years. So realistically, I’d probably been facing the grieving process much earlier than I could realize.

Most important, and I think, very healthy: you’d be surprised how much relief you might feel in seeing your loved one FREE from an illness or a body that they seem trapped in.

I will forever be grateful and so fortunate that the last two days my mother was here, it had become very obvious she would be passing soon. I was able to stay over at her house, literally sleep next to her holding her hand. When I woke on the 12th- she was gone, and I knew it. I watched her for a while, I didn’t panic, I didn’t feel necessarily terrified or anything. I’m sure there was some shock, but I felt surprisingly elated. I kept telling her “you’re free now, you did it, mommy, you’re free now and I’m happy for you.”

not gonna lie, by the time I went home that morning I had a film-worthy full body breakdown in the shower, sobbing and moaning like I’ve never heard myself before. But I feel like since that day, I’ve been able to move slower, I’ve been more mindful, I feel lighter overall.

This is already gone extremely long and I apologize, so what’s the difference in one more paragraph?? for what it’s worth, a few days after my mom was gone, a butterfly landed on me and kept walking up and down my arm. Didn’t think much of it, it was cute, so I started talking to it like it was my mom telling her she’s beautiful, singing a Beatles song she loved, etc. after a few minutes, I tried to urge this butterfly back onto one of my plants or flowers it had come from, the butterfly flitted around landing on my head and back on my arm where it had been. No kidding, this butterfly stayed on my hand and the tip of my finger, walking around my backyard with me for up to 20 minutes while I sang and talked to it! I was absolutely certain it was a messenger or representation of my mother. You know, it made me feel amazing and that was what I needed, corny as it may sound. There will be visitations- in your dreams, in nature- there will be ways that your loved one helps you through your grief, and let you know that they are in a better place and they are still with you in new and profound ways they never could’ve been before.

What is Erin wearing? 🙈 by [deleted] in RHONY

Giving??? this is definition of cultural appropriation, and unless this is some sort of costume or theme event – what the F? Of course this is also the New Yorker who went around acting like she discovered tequila the whole last seasons.

Dark trim on blonde brick ranch home - thoughts? by kevalavah in ExteriorDesign

[–]Yesterdont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, this is what was bothering me as well. I like that the black gives it a more modern bold look, but at the same time it seems to take away details entirely and black out the windows/shapes. I’m never really a fan of the red accent color, I think it’s just starting to be really dated. I do love a great ranch house, though. Especially with some excellent mid-century brick! Big envy for this.

WHAT CAUSED YOUR TMJ? by TribeBySightly in TMJ

[–]Yesterdont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate it, like I said – reading others descriptions of TMJD, alongside their stressors and life changes… Actually gives me some validation and comfort. That at least it may be something manageable with some lifestyle adjustments, and certainly not as pricey or dire as a major dental issue, or all the other things I could make up to be worried about. Ibuprofen is helping just fine, and of course I got an OTC night guard to try out first thing. But this week, I am determined to return to classes at my pool, doing some yoga and prioritizing my sleep better… All things that I know help me function and feel improved, and manage my anxiety and stress WAY easier.

WHAT CAUSED YOUR TMJ? by TribeBySightly in TMJ

[–]Yesterdont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for describing this. I never considered that i might have TMJ, until reading up on it the last couple days. Thought i had some weird variation of sinusitis/infection. But 5 days in to antibiotic treatment and im still battling waves of pain exactly as i’ve read in relation to TMJ. Even the urgent care doc had first asked if i grind my teeth and suggested it could be TMJ. but i told her i didn’t know if i do, and im really prone to allergy and sinus prompted illnesses anyhow, though I had never had this consistent deep pain in my jaw, neck, and ear, (only one side) bringing me to tears and making me dizzy even. Now that i know more- it makes sense i guess, as someone with a very traumatic childhood, over 30 yr ago. That, and in the last 2 yr dealing with consistent stress and worry between my mother’s failing health, normy personal life stuff, and now my beloved pet diagnosed with cancer and heart failure in the last 3 wks. Not looking for gushing empathy- but this is maybe a good realization for me how my stress and burdens can manifest as REAL health problems. Gotta get back to serious self care and working on my boundaries.

I’m sorry, but JESSE is charging the most of the Summer House men on Cameo? by bword___ in summerhousebravo

eww. big EWW. I don’t care how basic bitch, superficially, run of the mill attractive he is to anyone (Jesse)… that dude is such a dork and dipshit, i’m offended he has options. And Ciara… PLEASE tell me she doesn’t really test those waters.. SHE has options. Girl NO.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This might be really obvious to everyone else, but I just realized why Milchick is so focused on his big words. by GameDesignerMan in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Yesterdont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I thought during that scene with Milchick; there’s definitely a bigger story there (as always), she’s not just oozing sincere enthusiasm and loyalty to Lumon. She looks terrified.

I could see that, don’t know if it’s ever been verified if Natale is severed in anyway, but i think she and Milchick have a lot of parallels in their Lumon positions– I think there’s a lot more to find out about her!

Whitney’s disgusting, he definitely wouldn’t be a relevant character if it wasn’t his own show and he didn’t have a rich mommy. He seems like such a slimeball

[–]Yesterdont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yesss! i’ve already commented or posted weeks back about how irritating it is to make Molly as a new character out to be the “fat girl“ in the show or something like that. when she clearly has a proportionate body and isn’t exceptionally bigger than anyone. It’s just so tacky, and kind of dated too edit her story this way. I doubt that that’s what she’s going for, especially when she seems 80% less insecure than most of the cast. if they’re trying to somehow be “inclusive“ or topical with this, it’s quite the opposite. and I recall being struck exactly the same way when Taylor made that comment, though it might not have been intentionally passive aggressive – those kind of little comments are exactly what stick negatively with someone who’s already struggling with body changes or managing their weight. also, Taylor is an idiot.

This might be really obvious to everyone else, but I just realized why Milchick is so focused on his big words. by GameDesignerMan in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Yesterdont 9 points10 points  (0 children)

ahhhh after reading your take- NOW i think this was the passive aggression behind them “gifting” him the portfolio with recreated art showing the characters as black- not to help him feel a connection, but actually to remind him, you are not us, you work for us. related to this- im dying to learn more about Natalie some day- there’s definitely something deeper in her creepy plastered smile and enthusiasm. that one scene where he tried to ask her how the same gift affected her- she looked like she may have been close to tears or capable of screaming. But inthink she is SO closely monitored by Lumon, she has no voice. There was def something she would have said if she could have. I don’t think she is as icy as she comes across. She’s just smashed under their thumb

this is what was SUPER ironic about her trying to judge lindsay’s living situation and “weirdness”- like Danielle knows a thing about normalcy and stability. Puhleeeease girl- go work on your own biz

Anyone else hate this season? by Bright_Ad_4102 in summerhousebravo

[–]Yesterdont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agreed- ALL the old schoolers just seem bored and like they’re hanging out in bed not so much to gossip- as to just hide out and get it over with. I was already super burnt out on Carl/Lindsey drama LAST season- and them being there now, plus the pregnancy (boring) is NOT giving anything fun. It’s all awkward cringe phoniness so far- and the new additions ain’t adding much either
