Except that women already practice risk management constantly, and are often shamed for it, too.

When I try to star comments, they end up losing a star, so I’ll just agree wholeheartedly with a comment.

Practical jokes suck. I’ve never encountered one that was funny.

His apology rang true to me too, and I don’t want him to step down because I believe he’s performing a public service we all need him to do. However, “he’s a comedian”, and “he was joking” don’t make a lick of difference.

I thought he might be doing it because he knew something was going to break very, very soon, but as far as I know, it hasn’t. So, while he’s a known jerk, maybe what we know of him really is most of what there is to know?

Or else I’m just hoping so. He’s hilarious.

I’m here. Changed my mind about being an apologist. Fuck him.

I did consider him just because nobody seriously considered him, and beings as it’s TV, that’s always a clue. I couldn’t see why, but that makes sense.

What’s his motive? I’m embarrassingly invested.

Yes, this. I don’t know if I agree that he has to solve the dad thing first (if we wait until we’ve got no issues, we’ll never live), but working on the two things simultaneously is probably a good idea.

You aren’t a loser. Realizing the program wasn’t right for you and dropping out was brave.
I didn’t feel young when I was 24, but I was and you are. It’s okay to still be figuring things out.

I’d so much rather look like her than Melania. Really and truly. I probably won’t take drastic measures (or any measures, really) to make it happen, though.

I used to be a preschool teacher with Head Start, and have some experience with families under investigation from CPA. I know there are biases, classism, and racism involved, but the people like this woman who acted like they were 100% victims of an unfair system were always the ones who had been under investigation…

Sorry I was rude to you. Ironically, it’s because I was so hot at everyone else being awful, but I see now you weren’t. I hate it when I’m a jerk, so again, I apologize.

Yup. I was working my ass off, and my house was absolute chaos. Now that I’ve learned some concrete ways of working “smarter, not harder”, I can keep things under control with much less effort.

Nope. I grew up in a loving but physically chaotic home, so I didn’t know how to clean. If anything, I was cleaned up after far less than the average person.

You haven’t actually seen her house. You only know what she’s told you.

The majority of posters are, in fact, hating on her. I haven’t seen your other comments, so I don’t know about you, but stop gaslighting.

Nope.

You’re right, the other posters are wrong. Just had to say it again.

Congratulations on your new little one! Most of these posters are raving assholes. I’m sorry you’re having to deal with them. They also don’t have a clue what they’re talking about. I had a house cleaner for a while. It was nice, in that it forced us to clean before she came so she could do the deeper cleaning, but it…
