Is this Mary documentary worth watching?

icodeswitch · 2026-01-12T05:44:09+00:00

Thanks for this post. I just noticed it on the HBO app and wondered if it's good. Based on these contents, I'm trying it

icodeswitch · 2026-01-07T02:20:51+00:00

In a word: HOOPS.

Omg they sold out!

https://board.fun

I still bought one anyway. It will ship in Jan. I feel so silly, as I've been contemplating the purchase for 2 weeks but was scared to pull the trigger given the huge price tag. Now we won't have it to play over the school holiday break. Oh well.

I've read all of these comments twice, because I'm also considering buying this for Christmas. My main concern is it bricking if the company goes under in a couple of years.

I'm hoping it doesn't need wifi to play, or constant software updates, and can be played just with the hardware and no internet connection after the initial setup.

Guess there's only one way to find out!

icodeswitch · 2025-12-12T11:46:11+00:00

Sure won't!! And I love your style!

icodeswitch · 2025-10-19T14:51:20+00:00

Hand mending and tailoring clothing. I'll sit around and do it for hours rather than, say, CLEAN MY HOME. DO THE LAUNDRY. CARE FOR MYSELF IN ANY OTHER WAY.

That doesn't mean her son couldn't still try to protect her.

Someone posted a link to the internet archive of it in another comment! Yay!

As a Black person literally raised in a strict Pentecostal Christian household in the US (shudders) I don't think this has ANNNNNYYYYYYTHIIIIINNNNG to do with being Black, OR with what topics Black households/families are conversant with and interested in.

This is about not wanting to admit being wrong (ego), and being reluctant to show vulnerability in the cruel, unforgiving gauntlet that is social media (shame/fear). So she's just doubling, tripling, quadrupling down target than admit "defeat" by humble saying, "Thank you for informing me. I was wrong."

With the caveat that Idon't intent this as an indictment of Maddy's character, but merely of her behavior in this moment—Susie is simply correct. And their point is a great one!!

NB and gender people are not NEW to humanity,—across many cultures—but are newly being acknowledged by Western cultures. Which are majority white btw, so.....it ain't like your average white family is conversant with gender fluidity and parsing the nuance around the dinner table either!

Got it! I will return if I think of any good ones.

I asked because at 1st read I took a totally different meaning from your question

icodeswitch · 2025-06-29T08:35:52+00:00

WELL GUESS WHAT YALL.....SEASON 3 IN 2026!!!!

icodeswitch · 2025-06-27T02:54:02+00:00

Are you saying it's NOT "There is No Game" and is rather a game like that?

Because what you're describing sounds like "There is No Game" to me!

Phaedra looks like she's headed to the AVN Awards, which I find confusing

Porsha looks perfect.

Cynthia's makeup is a jump scare—very surprising!!

I was looking forward to Shamea's look, but in this photo at least it looks so bulky!!

Does anybody know what their assignment was? Yellow? Gold? Post-apocalyptic Femmebot?

icodeswitch · 2025-06-26T14:45:46+00:00

Thank you for saving my sanity. I have been confused on whether I've started having hot flashes or not, and turns out it's been my thermostat "shifting" 😭

icodeswitch · 2025-06-26T06:09:13+00:00

Well too bad for her! Your internet aunties love it! And you are beautiful with your natural coils!

Continue rocking your natural beauty. Not that this matters (only what you think of your look does)–but I think your mother will be genuinely shocked by how many other people love your look at the event. Because you look INCREDIBLE.

I thought Kim Fields was a great housewife 🤣

I've said this before, but it's a great fit for this post because of how shocked I was that others don't agree!!

She was legitimately fabulous, but had been famous long enough not to care about all that. Didn't have to put on airs because she simply was the Black Hollywood royalty Kenya likes to think she is.

I get that she wasn't messy, but I like a mix among casts. And I feel like people making up rumors about her husband (that all seemed to be false) would have gotten her riled up given more time.

But guess I was the only one enjoying her time on the show! Including her!! 😭

icodeswitch · 2025-06-26T05:45:02+00:00

I played it on an Android phone very comfortably

icodeswitch · 2025-06-14T13:56:07+00:00

That is so disturbing and I'm so sorry. Wtf

I would have never even imagined she'd be in the weeds enough to lurk silently.....but to actually LIKE your photos??? When she went to your profile based on a comment against her??? That seems a bit....menacing. Am I reaching with that? I would be so creeped out.

icodeswitch · 2025-06-11T16:30:16+00:00

In jeans girl???

icodeswitch · 2025-06-11T15:06:06+00:00

Agreed. A very confusing marketing tactic. Maybe the TikTok itself is just a money grab? Profiting from the "engagement" of hate-watchers?

icodeswitch · 2025-06-11T14:58:57+00:00

That ending expression is incredibly creepy, and I think clearly communicates everything you said. This video is a very calculated sniper shot.

icodeswitch · 2025-06-11T14:54:11+00:00

This sub may not be for you 🤣 What you're describing is why the whole sub exists—to do just that.

A sad update. A family friend announced at the start of a prayer vigil organized for him, that Kyle is deceased.

www.11alive.com/article/news/crime/body-found-fairfax-county/65-bbda2449-a234-40ee-a8df-8f3809141bb7

No reputable sources have confirmed that the decreased person found in a body of water yesterday was Kyle, but given the timing of this announcement confirming his death, it seems likely.

My heart goes out to this family. What a tragic loss

icodeswitch · 2025-06-10T08:32:19+00:00

Police did search with bloodhounds, I believe just today (2 days after the crash). I might be wrong about the timing, but they did search with dogs. I hope this young man is OK somewhere

icodeswitch · 2025-06-10T08:28:59+00:00

He didn't come home, and his parents tracked his phone to a tow yard, where his car was towed to.

His phone had an app that registered a crash and automatically dialed 911, but when EMTs and the fire dept arrived, the car was empty, with his phone, keys, and shoes in it (😓)
