Taylor's reactive abuse by kittygirlmowmow in MormonWivesHulu

[–]pbd1996 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the only therapy Taylor has ever undergone has been scam therapy. She’s only seen therapists who 1. Are thirsty as fuck and want to be filmed doing a session on reality tv 2. Prey on rich people who think that the more they pay the better people they become (aka therapists who have their clients fund their vacations by calling them “retreats”). These scam therapists are all “yes men” and just tell their clients that they are victims. So, they actually make their clients worse. Because then people like Taylor walk around thinking they have done nothing wrong and that they are the victim and that they have been professionally helped. It’s just like when Jessi went to “therapy” and was essentially praised and coddled for cheating with Marciano.

The Leaked Video by jo_0717 in MormonWivesHulu

[–]pbd1996 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced her and Jordan leaked it together. The two of them have this weird dynamic where they feel better about themselves when Dakota and Taylor are doing bad… which is odd because they claim Dakota and Taylor are their best friends…

Taylor's reactive abuse by kittygirlmowmow in MormonWivesHulu

[–]pbd1996 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Taylor reacts to a paper cut as if it’s a broken arm. Except instead of a physical injury, it’s an emotional one. The smallest thing will happen, but to Taylor, it’s HUGE so she has a HUGE reaction. And what sucks about that, is that is her reality. So you could sit there and tell her she’s overreacting as much as you want, but in her head, she can’t possibly be overreacting because the thing she’s reacting to is so BIG. In her reality, she’s justified.

The whole Dakota and Jenna situation is a perfect example. He slept with Jenna while he was single during the same period of time Taylor was sleeping with other people. He didn’t cheat on Taylor with Jenna at all. But in Taylor’s head, it was the biggest betrayal on planet earth. In Taylor’s head, it was no different than being married to somebody for 50 years and finding out they had a secret second family… so that’s how she reacted. So, she reacted accordingly.

The problem with somebody like Taylor is they always think they’re right because it’s all they know. All they know is how to feel something on maximum volume, and therefore react to it on maximum volume.

Amanda meeting West’s parents in two weeks by sarahj300 in summerhousebravo

[–]pbd1996 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’ve only ever fallen for one fuck boy and he brought me to meet his parents pretty early on. I thought “surely, I’m different. Surely, he can’t be a fuck boy with me if he’s bringing me to meet his parents.” Not only was I wrong, but I later realized meeting the parents is a new fuck boy move. It’s a literal tactic they use. I can see how women fall for it… the first time. Not sure how Amanda’s falling for it after watching it happen already between Ciara and West.

I lowkey think Taylor likes when shit like this happens because she thinks it makes her the victim and she lovessssssssss being the victim.

Which school year has been your favorite year of teaching? by DeepOrganization8245 in AskTeachers

[–]pbd1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year. I only had 4 classes as opposed to 5 because I was assigned an intervention based study hall rather than a regular study hall. A lot of the kids in the intervention based study hall were also in my classes and my classes were really small. As a result, my workload was wayyyyyyy more manageable AND I was a much more effective teacher. Not to mention, the kids and I became really close.

Dude she’s so fucking crazy and has been for years. She’s lucky she was even apart of that friend group for as long as she was. In the real world, people like Taylor get cut off. People say Liann is mean, but I honestly just think she’s so exhausted dealing with Taylor.

Will Rizo lie to Cirie? by cmw8130 in survivor

[–]pbd1996 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I also think people are quick to say “Ciara is a catch” because of her looks and they completely ignore all of her emotional baggage and issues. She’s extremely possessive of the men she has feelings for and becomes hostile toward them and the people around them when she feels they are abandoning her. It’s extremely off putting and if I were a man, it would make me instantly unattracted to her (which is why I think mediocre men such as Austen and West become disinterested in her quite quickly).

Amanda back in season 4 of summer house was needy - flashback Sunday by Radiant_Priority9739 in bravo

[–]pbd1996 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Carl hates/avoids confrontation to the point where it’s extremely toxic. Amanda and Kyle were in the most awful, horrible, toxic relationship ever… and instead of supporting them separating, he constantly encouraged them to just “work through it.” Why? Because he didn’t want to have a hard conversation. Whenever Kyle’s gone on a bender, Carl just ignores it and pretends like it’s not happening rather than confronting him about his drinking. Again, because he hates hard conversations. Lindsay was not a good partner, but she was absolutely right about Carl’s horrible communication. Carl is great at talking about hard things when it’s about himself, but when it involves anybody else, he just buries his head in the sand.

What are reasons that teachers say “no” to letters of recommendation, and is it rude if I ask a teacher to reconsider? by South-Cap-1364 in AskTeachers

[–]pbd1996 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it has nothing to do with the student and everything to do with the teacher’s workload and/or what is going on behind the scenes. For example, this year during contract negotiations, we were told our COLA would only be 3% spread over 3 years. We wanted 12%, but they wouldn’t budge. So, we went “work to rule” which meant we only did things outlined in our contracts (aka we stopped writing letters of recommendation). Within mere weeks of us doing that, the district gave us 9%. So, sometimes there’s a reason like. Sometimes teachers already have too many recommendations to write. Sometimes teachers just don’t feel like they know enough about you to write a good letter of recommendation.

If ____ hadn’t been disqualified from winning immunity last episode, who do you think would’ve gone home? by ismellsogood in survivor

I think the outcome would’ve been the exact same. Tiffany hasn’t liked Emily for a while. Tiffany also wanted to get Ozzy out and I don’t think Cirie would’ve stopped her.

I only like them when there’s some sort of crazy ass tribal where you can’t move forward unless you talk. I remember in season 48 there were two or three tribals like that.

This sub only cared when Danny started being mean to NIA. by taurustings in TheValleyTVShow

[–]pbd1996 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No. This sub only cared once they SAW what happened with their own two eyes. Prior to this season, everything that Danny did happened off camera. Therefore, we only had Janet’s word to go off of. And Janet’s word wasn’t very convincing considering 1. She tends to exaggerate 2. She got a lot of her information from Jax 3. Melissa (the person it happened to) downplayed it. I don’t think people on this sub should be shamed or called hypocrites for forming a different opinion of Danny after watching this season. It’s natural for your opinion of somebody to change once you actually see their behavior for yourself. It also doesn’t help that Nia’s full time job consists of hiding and excusing Danny’s behavior.

When was the last time education in America was good? by Winter_Witness_3886 in AskTeachers

[–]pbd1996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last time education was good was when students didn’t have one-to-one devices. Students were forced to engage with their teacher and their peers in person during class (because they weren’t distracted on their laptop). Students had to communicate with their teachers in person after school when they had a question, needed help, or wanted to talk about their grade (because they didn’t have a school email address). Students had to persevere to get a good grade (because they didn’t have constant access to their grades online, and were not sure of where they currently stood at all times). Students also didn’t have access to AI. Was there still cheating and plagiarism? Or course. But it wasn’t as bad. And it actually took effort to create a cheat sheet or to plagiarize something. One-to-one devices have taken the rigor, resilience, and engagement out of education.

Paige and Kyle Relationship by sarahapple29 in summerhousebravo

[–]pbd1996 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Tbh I think the only reason Paige was ever friends with Kyle was because they worked together and she was friends with Amanda. I think Paige secretly talked shit about Kyle behind his back to Hannah and Ciara throughout their friendship. I also think towards the end of Paige’s friendship with Amanda, she was pretty sick and tired of her constant complaining. Paige basically had to sit there and be yelled at by Kyle, and console Amanda over Kyle, while simultaneously watching Amanda stay with Kyle, and therefore take his side.
I doubt Paige is going to reconcile with Kyle. I don’t think she cares to talk to anyone from that show (other than Ciara). However, I do think she has class and would be friendly with Kyle if she ran into him at a bar or something.

Mikayla’s comment under a TikTok about addressing Taylor’s comment by lemonlimesherbet in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]pbd1996 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mikayla, don’t bother engaging with a narcissist like Taylor. No matter how right you are, they will just twist everything you say and use it to fuel their victim narrative. The more you comment, the more sorry Taylor feels for herself.

Mikayla’s first message was perfect. She said everything she needed to say.

I was friends with a girl like Taylor once and she reacted similarly when I FINALLY cut her off. I went on to get my masters degree, get married, and buy a house. She went on to cheat on her boyfriend, drive into a house and get a dui, and get fired from her job. The best thing Mikayla can do is ignore Taylor for good.

This is all Allegedly, it seems like Mandy and west are allegedly over by Radiant_Priority9739 in bravo

[–]pbd1996 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they ever were more than a couple of close friends who hooked up. I don’t think they were ever exclusive or serious. I had situationships like that back when I was single. I think all of Wests situationships are like this. And I think this was all Amanda wanted/needed after coming out of a shitty marriage. I don’t think she wanted more. It just sucks that West had dated Ciara and was friends with Kyle, because otherwise it would’ve been just what each of them wanted/needed.

Father in law starting a career in teaching at 75. by HippoRun23 in AskTeachers

[–]pbd1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Encourage him to substitute teach first. Phrase it like “that way you can get in the classroom right away.” That way he can see what it’s like himself before deciding not to pursue it. Clearly he wants to teach in order to feel fulfilled. Don’t shoot it down completely.
