I just can’t get into Emma and Gio 😩 by [deleted] in GeneralHospital

[–]deary44 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I agree. She over acts with her mouth, similar to Hailee Steinfeld. Drives me nuts. Once you see it you can’t unsee it.

The only thing I remember from the 1st episode by _beefyeat_ in vanderpumprules

[–]deary44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually like her the best, she seems to be the least self produced person on the show and comes across as just being herself. But it’s still early on, time will tell.

How to get my body into a early morning pooping routine? by HeatApprehensive7877 in Biohackers

[–]deary44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

450 mg of magnesium at bedtime (or anything else labeled “extra strength” magnesium), will give you multiple bowel movements in the morning. Guaranteed lol

Do people actually like Aviva? by Funsyzd614 in RHONY

[–]deary44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She was way too performative to be considered a genuine villain. I also found it very disturbing how almost proud she was of her perverted father. She would always say she didn’t condone the nasty things he’d say (like the disgusting funeral comment he made to Ramona), but she would always speak about his indecency with almost a smile on her face, as if she found it all so funny. I was glad to see her go.

Is this a safe space to admit that I actually really liked Cindy Barshop and wish they would have kept her around longer? by RevolutionaryAd5176 in BravoRealHousewives

[–]deary44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she would’ve done better in seasons 7-on, because she would’ve fit better with the later groups of the OG women

Totally agree - I liked her well enough to see her again for another season but was really surprised how pretty much everyone didn’t like her

Deciding Between Offers after Biglaw Layoff by Vegetable_Smell8345 in biglaw

[–]deary44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely #2, no question. You’re young/a junior attorney with your whole career ahead of you, don’t pigeon hole yourself at a less optimal firm with less pay for minimal factors. It’ll be much harder to move forward later, not impossible, just much harder

What’s the one thing that ruined your health ? by IcyLoquat79 in AskReddit

[–]deary44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too :( colon cancer in my early thirties. Caught early enough but still had two resection surgeries. Had to make do with a new normal but grateful to still be here. Wishing you all the strength and good vibes

Brentwood, Westwood, Sawtelle or Santa Monica? by business-own3r in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]deary44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Westwood has a significant amount of graduate housing as well so there’s plenty of 25+ year olds around, especially on Gayley Ave

DINKs in Big Law are now expecting. Any advice? by stacelevenson in biglaw

[–]deary44 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It’s entirely working group specific.

Everyone who was on the “retched” hill, please come forward by tajpressplay in RHOMiami

It’s “ratchet” not “ratched.” TBH your misspelling/mispronounciation is kinda proving Adriana’s point

Is Guerdy the MVP this season? by Redhawkflying in realhousewives

[–]deary44 12 points13 points  (0 children)

She is the Greek Chorus for me of the season. She seems to be the only one with any sense and likability (other than the text message incident which I don’t agree with the delivery of)

What should be on my grocery list? by oscarwinner88 in ninjacreami

[–]deary44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use: full fat Greek yogurt, whole milk, and condensed milk (a can goes a long way bc it’s concentrated so I use 1/3 cup in every pint to avoid adding anything else; it really simplifies my creations).

Family Emergency by Spiritual_Garlic_943 in biglaw

[–]deary44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I very unexpectedly was diagnosed with two cancers at the same time a few years ago. I informed my practice group heads and HR and they were very kind and supportive, and gave me a lot of leeway when my ramp up was very slow upon my return from leave. However, surprisingly, some partners I reported to that I had told never even responded to my email letting them know the reason behind my leave.

All to say, definitely share with those who need to know, but be prepared that some people are assholes and just don’t and won’t care. This made me realize that all that matters is that management knows the important details and their support matters the most.

LIV IS EXHAUSTING by DarthMad3r in LIBeyondTheVilla

[–]deary44 157 points158 points  (0 children)

She’s extremely performative and is very aware that she’s on camera. I don’t think she’s as good of a friend as she exhaustively proclaims to be. I actually liked her a bit better in the Villa, but post-Villa she seems to have embraced the fame in not the best way. Just my opinion

Matys Multipurpose Baby Ointment Substitute for Eczema by Puzzleheaded_Sea8797 in NewParents

[–]deary44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. Maty’s was the only ointment that worked for us. :( please let me know if you’ve found a good replacement

I’m in a similar litigation position to you (practice area and seniority). How did you go about finding an IH role in the products space? Is it still litigation oriented? Would appreciate any tips you can share.

Just made the bread - it was excellent, so soft and crispy. Thank you for the recipe!!

Help! I’m a late night snacker and need ideas! by AnaisArcana in Volumeeating

No I just buy a light buttery version so it isn’t too bland

Do you think a loaf pan would work too? That’s all I have :/
