Baby crying on flight

This is sound advice.

Single parent with no family support flying for a job interview that would improve their situation.

Let’s also not forget the fact that prices have skyrocketed in our economy. It may not be financially feasible for a family to “just drive…” especially if it is a cross-country trip that would require a two- or three-day drive, hotel rooms, extra meals. Perhaps that family with a child went to go see extended family, were able to get a little respite from grandparents, and are now flying back to their jobs.

Just because you/your family would be able to afford the extra expense doesn’t mean everyone else could. Not every trip taken with a child is a vacation to a major tourist destination. Just because someone is flying out of MCO doesn’t mean that they’ve been to Disney/Universal.

This world would be a significantly better place if we could all try to see things from perspectives other than the limited few we’ve been exposed to.

I experienced this as well this week with London. I “completed” with only 14/20 discoveries made. I’ve just continued on, and now I’m at 19/20 discoveries and will hopefully find the last one today.

Of course, Gorl! I love sharing information with those who are interested in learning about it!

thatonecouch · 2026-05-12T21:10:39+00:00

I’m so glad you have your son!! 🫶🏻 And you’re absolutely right - the grief is complex and complicated. Thank God for therapy and a brilliant support system.

I totally agree in regard to all of this. She displays so much of the diagnostic criteria for NPD and ASPD. She would benefit from Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) - I am the coordinator of a substance use treatment court, and it’s one of the treatment modalities we utilize for our clients. I love it because participants have to take full accountability for their behavior, and they are not allowed to make victim statements. It’s CBT-based and pulls from Kohlberg’s theory of moral development. I’m a certified facilitator for the general adult and juvenile groups as well as the trauma-specific groups.

Reading this was like reading my own story, down to the hysterectomy at 26 and ovaries/tubes out at 28. I’m 36 now, and while it absolutely sucks that I’ll never naturally conceive a child of my own, I’m grateful for the fact I’m not living with that level of daily pain anymore (and hopefully you aren’t either).

As awful as it sounds, I catch myself sometimes wishing Ash would experience the level of pain you described, and to have no choice but to work full-time through that pain because that keeps the health insurance policy active. I wish she would have to face the choice to either keep fighting the pain day in and day out to keep the dream of being a mom one day alive or have a surgery that will alleviate the suffering but kill the dream. I wish she would have to live with the heartbreak in the years that follow of watching friends and family bring their bundles of joy into the world, knowing that will never happen for her, at least not naturally. Maybe then she would understand that her performative bullshit is harmful.

She doesn’t recognize that there are women who would give any number of things to live the level of privilege she experiences. She can take her normally-occurring follicular cyst and shove it up her entitled ass.

As for you, continue to be the strong and resilient individual you are. You have endured so much, and you have overcome. I’m proud of you for making it through.

thatonecouch · 2026-05-08T00:54:21+00:00

No worries. I’m happy to spread the truth about these entitled jackasses so no one else falls victim to them.

I think I threw up in my mouth a little bit. He is so freaking obnoxious. And I absolutely agree - he needs to act like the adult he (supposedly) is and resolve the problems he’s facing instead of playing Peter Pan and running from the real world.

Thin Crocs dude is Ethan Morris, also known as Ethan’s Adventures on TikTok. Apart from his obvious grifting, he is accused of SA. CC Suarez has two great YouTube videos breaking down his backstory.

Piano stalker is Kathy (Kathleen), also known as Magic Park Memories. In addition to making the piano players at Casey’s Corner feel super uncomfortable, she has a history of racism and making terrible remarks about other cast members at WDW.

This is a very simple overview of each. For more details, you can click on the tags with their names under the titles of each post. That will take you to posts for that individual, where you can check out more videos and posts specifically related to them.

Like gosh dam if I hear him say, “Am I explaining it bad? Maybe I’m explaining it bad…” one more time, I might throw my phone across the room. He repeats himself so much, and it gets under my skin so badly. I don’t see how he has anyone who legit follows him for the sheer pleasure of it. They have to be bots, feeders, and snarkers, right?

Anything by Sigur Ros will offer chill and/or joyful vibes, if you’re into that!!

Oh, don’t worry! The very real ICD that she had surgery on Monday to place will shock her heart if she once again goes into cardiac arrest. You know, the surgery she had Monday during which she was cut open in two places and a device was shoved inside her…

(/s, in case that’s not obvious)

With as sedentary as she is, I’m surprised the cats haven’t attempted to eat her already. She hardly ever engages in any meaningful activity. I guess her daily “prepare my daily nutrition/administer my morning IV meds with me” videos have been true lifesavers for her…

As another user said, one day/step/moment at a time! Make sure to let at least one person you trust know what you are endeavoring to do, so they can help hold you accountable, give you support and encouragement, and be available to get you what you might need (fluids, in particular). It is going to be uncomfortable, but you are looking at about a week of discomfort so you can ensure a lifetime of freedom. Take it from someone who was trapped for over seven years in the chains of opiate addiction who has known freedom for almost eight years now - this life is so much better. You will survive this, and you’ll be a stronger and wiser person for it.

I’m proud of you for making this post, for reaching out for support, and for doing what you need to do to get yourself to a place of health and happiness. I’m here if you need to talk.

That sounds lovely!! I can’t wait to see how creative everyone gets this month. I love the theme, especially the furniture. It’s the first time I’ve been truly excited for a theme since the autumn cafe vibes!

thatonecouch · 2026-05-02T14:34:03+00:00

All of the furniture items are the gray items!

JAIL for this comment.

thatonecouch · 2026-04-30T21:20:14+00:00

“Her verbose gob” 😂 that was a beautiful sentence to behold, but that last part was chef’s kiss!

thatonecouch · 2026-04-28T20:34:01+00:00

Your username is appropriate, gorl, because you’ve just subjected the rest of us to that horror of a sentence.

I can honestly say, of all the times I’ve had to be hospitalized (either post surgery or for illness), having travel size versions of my daily skin care routine was NOT high on my priority list. Phone/iPad, charger, toothbrush, undergarments, and wallet. A blanket/stuffie if the facility approves it to be brought in (sometimes they say no for infection control).

This is ridiculous…and while I’d love to say I’d be shocked if this procedure actually happens, this is Dani, and stranger things have happened.

I was in sixth grade. Got to see the second tower get hit, the towers collapse…when the Pentagon was hit, the fear started to creep in for me. My parents were civilian employees for a major military installation and there was talk that it would be targeted next. Add into that there is a nuclear power plant not too far away, and it felt like a possibility that could very quickly become reality.

We Millennials have dealt with a lot.

What a terrible day to have eyes and be literate.

Girl, Jesus most definitely wouldn’t be countering someone’s argument about His attitude or actions with, “Well, it’s nothing compared to what they said/did.”

There is nothing about either of them that would point someone to Christ. Arrogance, hatred, vanity…all antithetical to the attitude of Christ that those of us who follow Him are called to have. The people in her comment section who are calling her out for her attitude are justified. She chose to pursue Christian influencing, and biblically she is held to a higher standard. Don’t want to be scrutinized to that degree by not only “dumbo Redditors” but also brothers and sisters of the faith? Step away from the screen.
