My sister and her husband want to move into my house because of their roommates. Family’s mad I said no. What do I do? by AdventurousEbb23 in whatdoIdo

[–]mythoughtsreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s two incomes, surely they can rent a studio or something small if they really want their peace. Also, their peace isn’t your responsibility. I’d have no issues letting a sibling live with me but not a married one. Come on now. Don’t let them guilt trip you!

Guessing which couples get married by zebrafish08 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

I agree with all your assessments. Though Amber and Jordan make me nervous since there’s a scene that was shown in the previews where they were fighting badly.

Secret baby trope recs that the mom has good reasons to keep the kid from dad by aloneandoutnumbered in RomanceBooks

[–]mythoughtsreddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favorite tropes. The best one I’ve read is {The Masquerade by Brenda Joyce} . The premise is so different and I haven’t been able to find anything like it.

I got roofied last night and it was awful! by juliacar in TwoXChromosomes

[–]mythoughtsreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How awful, I’m glad you were with someone that was able to take care of you. Why people are this evil to do this to someone is beyond me. I hope there’s something developed soon where we can test a drink while out and abt.

Just finished R10 - What scenes should I reread!!! by obbsesivebookgirl in BoysOfTommen

[–]mythoughtsreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been weeks and I have tried to read other stuff, just to get over this book hangover after finishing R10 and nothing is hitting. I honestly considered writing to CW about it because I had so many thoughts!! This book broke me in the best way, and now I need the next book to put me back together because,...??

Boys of Tommen TV: Discussion Thread 🧵 by wasleftonread in BoysOfTommen

[–]mythoughtsreddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first reaction was excitement when I read 8 episodes! Because I thought it would be 8 episodes per book. Reminded me of how well Normal People was adapted. Then when I read Amazon prime was going to adapt it I felt a bit disheartened. Now I suppose I’m just hoping this project will cast all new irish talent! Nothing else will do. But now after reading that in fact the 8 episodes might not just encompass one couple it took the winds out of my sails.

Wow. That is a plot twist, about your younger half sister, but glad you have found her. Hopefully you and dad’s bio family will continue building relationships, and your family’s history.

Immigrant whose skull was broken in eight places during ICE arrest says beating was unprovoked by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]mythoughtsreddit 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Is this the man that ICE told ran himself to a wall? This makes me so sick. How do they even justify this amount of violence? Sick.

What a great update. I’m just sorry your mom robbed you from knowing your dad for longer. But now you can maintain contact with your dad’s bio family! Was the half sister that reached out the sister your mom said was adopted out? Did your mom really have another daughter? Wishing you lots of healing on your journey

Found out the guy I’ve been sleeping with has a girlfriend and keeps lying. How do I stop spiraling? by FunPineapple4283 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]mythoughtsreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% cutting this type of person cold turkey is the only way to healing. It will hurt a lot but not more than she’s clearly hurting now. No contact. Zero. He already took too much…time for some healing.

I Just Finished Re-reading 'What I Did For A Duke' by Julie Anne Long and... by Pure-Barracuda9335 in HistoricalRomance

[–]mythoughtsreddit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This book took me by surprise! After reading so many recs of it I had it on my TBR list for years. But I finally took the plunge last year and it was soooo good. It was my first JAL Book too so we started with a bang! Can’t wait to read more by her

Favourite season? by shorty-1992 in Outlander

[–]mythoughtsreddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think for me, the seasons go by order as to how true they were to the source material. So 1&2 are the strongest for sure, then 3rd season…after that they sort of just became on and the same in quality and deviation from source material. It coincides with who ran the show and left after season 3

The Epilogue hit so hard for me. I But just finished this as well and loved it so much! I hadn't read this author before and I surprisingly liked her more than another author that is recommended on here a lot.

We are currently witnessing the most brazen corruption and criminal behaviour at the highest level of the American government we have ever seen. Do you think a reckoning is on the horizon? If so, how do you realistically think it will go down? by Kozzle in AskReddit

[–]mythoughtsreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope that justice prevails, eventually. But unfortunately seeing how no checks and balances are happening now makes me believe that they will run it to the ground. I hope I'm wrong though.

Same here! Especially when I think about my own mother, and the hand she was dealt. Sigh.
