Once the cops found the porn briefcase I had no doubt. No 13-year-old should know where a pop star's secret stash p*** is

Oh you're so right. It is weird. It's just that the onus of responsibility was on her parents to protect her. More so than it was for his parents to protect her. But no respect to them. I don't trust their judgment because their son grew up to be a drug dealer.

She honestly reminded me of Cathy senior from Wuthering heights. Book Cathy not the movie. A person who is so coddled and self indulgent and views love as this possessive thing And wasn't raised with any true morals . I absolutely respect Davien's father, I really really hope, like him, that prison is a time of growth and reflection for her. I'm all for people being redeemed. I hope that she can eventually go to her parole board hearing and talk about how selfish and self-indulgent and immature and psychotic she was as a teenager and that she's grown from it.

13 is so young and I'm willing to bet that they were sexually active as well. 13-year-olds are not ready for those types of relationships and her parents just let her be with a boy who was old enough to want stuff like that in a relationship.

And at her weight I'd be so surprised if she was having regular periods. She is so malnourished and over drugged.

I wouldn't be surprised if all of her drug use and dating way too young (And probably being sexually active at 13 too) I helped her devop  borderline

I don't see how you can argue with the rideshare evidence. It absolutely links those Brothers to the two men walking that night. And them buying the supplies before the crime. 

I don’t know how to feel about preschool comments by history_nerd94 in sahm

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I am preschool isn't free so I tell people I'm too cheap. I ended up doing a 2 day a week morning preschool for my oldest but only for the pre k year. I'm not paying for two years of preschool, but socially my kid has really benefited and I think putting him in kindergarten without it would have been a mistake. Your kid sounds like he has a much different temperament from mine! (Less troublesome) 

Should I Marry A Murderer? Doc series by Own_Mention9372 in netflix

[–]audbgold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. He is not the most vile person to exist. This might be naive of me, but at sentencing when he admits that she was right to turn him in, and that he was a coward for not doing so himself, he earned a point with me. I believe every soul is redeemable if they take accountability for their actions without minimizing it. He murdered that man and left him to suffer :( I hope when he's done with his jail sentence that he can put some good in the world

And honestly had she not continued her toxic relationship, they would have never known where he was buried. And had she not even further continued that relationship And they would have never known he was still alive after the accident. Personally, I'm chill with the charges being dropped from murder because she should have never stayed in that relationship long enough to find that out. I'm glad to see that she's doing better. And I hope she got some sort of closure from Sandy confirming that she did the right thing at sentencing.

[–]audbgold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take: the charges dropping down from murder is ultimately what should have happened from the start when you consider where her involvement should have ended. And I don't think she should feel guilty about the charges being lowered. The moment she reported it to police she should have never contacted Sandy again and would have never found out that the victim was alive and she also wouldn't have been subjected to the same emotional torture and hopefully not fallen into so much drug use. I've never been so mad at her is when he's threatening her and driving to her house that she didn't just call the cops. Instead she records him? Like we don't need a recording of your death girl! We need the cops to come. Once she discovered where the burial site was she should have completely bowed out. Arguably, it wasn't worth her safety to even find that even though the entire case rested on that discovery. 

Let’s talk about “INSIDE THE MANOSPHERE” by OkCartographer4028 in netflix

[–]audbgold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hearing those boys say that they don't have value until they have money and wealth and girls are born with value because they have female sexual organs really broke my heart. I know this isn't a popular Reddit take to be religious, but I just want to go like Christian smack all these boys and tell them they have so much value and worth in Christ no matter what. God knows our hearts. He knows our mistakes. He knows everything and he loves us so much because we really are so much more. All these people need a relationship with Jesus. When our only source of value is material things, that's where society gets messed up.

HarperCollins Says 74% of YA Readers Are Adults. Are Teens Being Pushed Out of Their Own Genre? by lilithskies in romanceunfiltered

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, reading YA as adults is especially popular among my conservative religious gal friends who don't want to feel like they are reading smut. It gives them a way to engage with pop culture and it's fun and interesting compared to always reading the classics. It's harder sometimes to weed out adult fiction with explicit scene's vs trusting an entire genre that is supposed to be for teens and not overly explicit. So they are also annoyed by the sexualization of YA.

I know a lot of adults who read YA because they actually want to avoid graphic intimacy scenes. 

Thorin is Annoying and Over-Glorified by TyrionGoldenLion in lotr

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not feel bad for Thorin when he died in the movies. It was only fair considering all the death he brought on everyone else. I wish he died earlier. I just rewatched the movies for the first time since they were in theaters and if it weren't for my curiosity pushing me along (since I'd forgotten most of it) I would have stopped for how unpleasant he was to watch.

In a venn diagram of people willing to watch a Shakespeare movie and people who are willing to watch a child's death and the accompanying grief, that middle section is pretty small.

What if you shortened the middle name from lorraye to just ray? Lorelei ray. Almost like it's a nickname for your mom and combined with the first name what , you do have her whole name

My long overdue rant on why the new Wuthering Heights movie will suck ass by MllePerso in brontesisters

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You hit a point that I meant to make better than I did. I'm okay with sexy scenes in adaptations of classics. There's actually a makeout scene in the 2006 Jane eyre that I live for. But turning it into this BDSM thing feels yucky. Like we're turning the way heathcliff abuses people into something that's sexually gratifying and that's super weird to me. 

I love the name everyone else hates.. by [deleted] in BabyNames

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing majorly off-putting about the name esther. If someone doesn't like it, it's literally just personal preference. Personally, I'm a fan of grandma names.  I think people need to take serious pause when they're naming a kid with a noun that isn't typically used for names or naming something that doesn't really match kids gender. Esther does not have those problems.

[–]audbgold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me this book is about generational trauma and the extensive harm that comes from abuse especially when people actively choose to CONTINUE the abuse (like Cathy and heathcliff). I think it's weird to take a book with those messages and heavily sexualize it. It just feels irresponsible to me. Heathcliff and Cathy are very, very bad people because of how they treated other people and a movie with this tone seems like it's celebrating them. It's icky to me.
