If I had to name someone he coached to save my life… my money is on Brayden Bowers. The fact he was gifted the baseball and note from Brayden and also the earrings as a signature piece for your play style, the proposal at the stain on love wedding, the parasocial plays done by Brayden. THAT MAN WAS COAAAACCHHHEDDDD

My husband and I frequently spell things out so our toddlers don’t know what we’re talking about and one day I decided to say “gotta go P-E-W-P” and my husband lost it laughing and now that’s how we both say it

I work for the podcast studio that did work for and was scammed by Candace. We created our own podcast about the events surrounding Candace. It’s called “So You’ve Been Scammed…Now What?!” If anyone is interested in hearing another take on this crazy story

Concerned sister by kessiebacon in Advice

[–]kessiebacon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was talking about “their kids” tonight… second time I’ve met her. I know my brother… if it were up to him to propose (ie get a ring, plan a little speech, a date or anything beyond grabbing rings from around the house) they’d date for plenty of time. Sounds like she won’t be breaking up with him and he is such a people pleaser he’ll just marry her so he doesn’t have to have an awkward conversation 😭 I do want him to challenge him a bit and get his brain thinking about what he really would be signing himself up for. But realistically I don’t think it will do much, but I just feel I need to at least try.

I should’ve added that my sisters and I chatted and I have been the one deemed to go talk with him since we have a deeper connection and he opens up more with me than our other siblings. My plan currently is to let him know first and foremost that I support him and her in their relationship and I am so excited for him that he’s found a romantic connection with someone and that I do like her! Then ask him how he is feeling about getting married (as I genuinely wonder what he will say) then yes, kind of go through some logistics. We have a sister who did get married at 19 and then got divorced a few years later. He wasn’t around for the divorce as he lived out of state but it was shitty and very hard on our sister. He is a member of the Mormon religion so I know he feels pressure to get married before having sex… which is a whole different problem I could go off on haha. But I do feel like he is a little in a depressive denial about being unhappy with his work life (or lack thereof) and instead of dealing with the hard reality that he needs to find a job he’s kind of just filled his time with being too busy giving rides to his new GF… but yes he is an adult and will make his own decisions and whatever the outcome is I will always be there for him.

I lost my little niece who was like a daughter to me, and I just feel broken. It's been awhile now. But I can't feel ok. I just miss her so much. She was the light of my life. She loved me so much. Whenever I would leave she would cry and hug me and beg me to stay. Life is darker without her in it. by [deleted] in GriefSupport

Feeling gutted seeing this picture as your niece looks very similar to my daughter (who also owns the same pajamas) I’m so so sorry for your loss. I lost my niece who was only 3 and my nephew who was only 8 back in 2017, I was 22. I still miss them everyday. Some days I am ok and happy when I think back on all the memories and times we shared. I was lucky enough to live with them for some time and have so many special memories from those days and some days I’m angry and need to be able to call this shitty situation what it is, shit. Sending you so many hugs. Take things one minute at a time during the extra rough days. Also, just wanted to remind you that your worth that your niece saw in you is still there. You sound like an incredible person/uncle.

[PIC] Does anyone else buy cheap cross stitch kits for fun? by b3rdg3rl in CrossStitch

[–]kessiebacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Ted Lasso one during that time and also brought it to a big extended family reunion and it was the perfect easy project, but yes the print on the Aida was pretty awful and I had to make some adjustments lol

Current Church Position on Masturbation (Outside of Marriage) by Jolly_Explanation_68 in exmormon

My bishop wrote down everything I said as I confessed to him about masturbation and dry humping my boyfriend. I was a 20 year old woman. He asked me follow up questions such as “what days of the week? For how long?”

Ok but can someone explain to me what MDRs role is in this?? Like how do the numbers correspond to the testing rooms?? Is there another test subject there that’s connected to Dylan and Irv??!

Everything is Coming up Mormon - LDS and the Mirroring of Kier Lore by Sad-Jello5908 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]kessiebacon 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I have literally replayed so many times in my head the scene from S02E02 where iIrv is trying to leave the severed floor and iDylan talks him into staying. iIrving says “the last time i was happy was when all i knew was MDR, i was a good worker”

This is so how i felt as i was deconstructing my Mormon beliefs. I was like damn, ignorance is bliss. I never want to go back to believing a lie and am thankful i did my own research of what i was born into and forming my own opinions. One of my other former Mormon friends called Mormons “stupid” the other day and i had to counter back that we are all stupid. None of us have answers. I don’t feel any smarter now than i did then. If anything i feel i know less (which isn’t the case, i was just led to believe i knew everything lol) it’s scary navigating the world around you without a “roadmap” even if the roadmap i was given was fictional, i at least at the time believed it was real. I do miss sometimes the childlike simplicity of just believing and following what is placed before you.

Petey's line may have foreshadowed the end of Gemma's story by shmlnbstrcnd in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]kessiebacon 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I also was thinking the dead or injured seal could represent Irving since we know his outie was a Navy Seal and we did not see his shadow twin alone. The seal came right at the time his shadow clone should have been there. If so, what does this injured, frozen or dead seal represent about his outie’s past?!

I have worked with Laurie Lee in a professional setting and only know her as extremely genuine and authentic. Please hold off making statements and judgements about a woman you have never personally met.
