I’m right there with you. Deep down, I think I wanted to have children, but it’s just not in the cards for me - I turn 39 this year (my partner 38), I have a debilitating birth defect and a recently acquired disability, and the sun is setting on our ability to do it. We also have NO support system from our “families”,…

He’s a real estate agent, of course he’s smarmy!

I’m willing to bet that Zeke was hoping to control the narrative of his outing, and that seems to be confirmed by the various articles related to it. It may have been naive, but it sounds like this was going to be a thing between him and the producers - I think he knew full stop it was going to come out.

I’ve always gotten a refund or only owed a small bit of change. Through my own fuckery and moving to a place that has both a state income tax AND a city tax, I was on the hook for about $5K this year, even with all the deductions I could scrounge up.

We were never in the census to begin with.

There’s an anti trans person in the grays complimenting you. Maybe that’s a sign you’re not on the right side here.

So many haters in the comments. I thought this was great! But alas, I have listened to too many mixtapes and CDs where MCs have completely overtaken the music. No balance with the music, which is enjoyable to hear on its own.

As we know from watching British series, there’s such a thing as “one and done” one-season series and letting a good thing go. Then Stateside, we have to eke out every last penny from a successful story. Stop this, America!

No kidding! Bless her little heart.

Why would you make a 2-year-old a bridesmaid?

Haha if she were born to working class in Wichita or Des Moines, she’d be hustling body wraps, Rodan + Fields, Lularoe, or Scentsy.

I was a little side-eyed about your first comment, but the second comment sealed the deal. “Trailer friend” - aren’t you just darling.

The Trump Boys look like alcohol bloat.

Right. Traumatized is when you’ve been violently assaulted. Traumatized is being in a war zone. Traumatized is getting into a serious car accident. Etc.

We don’t want her on our team.

Sorry buddy, I do know what I’m talking about.

Don’t forget the listservs!

Hey! That used to be my statement, but I used acid. I wish everyone has tripped at least once in their life; people would have so much more chill and empathy.
