Like seriously - I just did one session and balled my eyes out for pretty much the entire thing. Does anyone else find this? Is it normal?

In my opinion it has been one of their long term plans to produce some kind of documentary, because everyone knows the sway Netflix-style documentaries can have on reaching a wide audience. Originally they probably thought they had multiple people who would take part: Jenny, Isabella, Brandon, other crew members, etc etc. But then their own lies, greed, bullying caught up with them and everyone who was on their side suddenly abandoned them. I can’t think of a single person - other than RL and the fitness instructor- who are still openly supporting Blake. Not one solitary person. Ergo the best means they have of getting the public back on their side - a documentary- is lost to them, because the only people who would be in it are Blake, Ryan, Robyn and the fitness instructor, and you can’t make a compelling documentary with only four people.

With this option lost to her I’m really interested as to how she tries to claw back her career from here.

Only the NYT posting a truthful headline for once. Hope Megan Twohey is utterly humiliated - alongside Blake. Sorry no breakdown, article is paywalled.

I think this annoys me more than anything else, because I can have 7 identical days, eating the same things, going to bed at the same times, exactly same routine - and five of those days I have a migraine and 2 I don’t. Absolutely no rhyme or reason. How on earth can you aim to prevent migraine when your triggers don’t even seem to exist? I find it beyond annoying.

I know he’s always had anger issues, but really in the last few years the rumours about his temper seem to have got worse and he looks furious almost all of the time. He’s not the same person he was say 10/15 years ago. I just wondered how much of that is down to the disintegration of his relationship with Harry. They did used to be quite close - and William was pretty protective of him at one point. Then that all went down the drain and William became this intensely angry little man who just seems to despise everyone.

I simply don’t understand why Harry would move his family to the UK unless something** **were being arranged to protect him from William. Same with Camilla. William is…I mean let’s face it the man is insane. He hates Harry and he hates Camilla. He hates anyone who isn’t Prince William. His foul temper and short fuse have been reported on for years and years, and as soon as Charles has gone he’ll be out for blood.

Could it be possible that KC knows he may not have long left and is trying to manoeuvre a safe future for his youngest son and his wife? I cannot fathom why Harry would move back unless he knew that something was to be done about William.

My neurologist told me they are the hardest to treat. My only two options left are GON block and Botox - and I fully expect that neither of them will work. I’m thinking of trying EMRD therapy next because I believe the migraines/ sleep issues are linked to stress, and if I can fix the sleep issues I might fix the migraines.

Hello all. I’m looking for a bit of advice regarding the process of obtaining a dementia diagnosis regarding my father. For context; my family and I have been worried about my dad for a long time now. I have some experience with dementia (my aunt had it also so I know the signs) and my father is exhibiting all the same symptoms. Memory issues, unable to complete simple tasks, hoarding, he isn’t taking care of himself etc etc. But the thing that we are really struggling with - and this isn’t something that happened with my aunt (her dementia made her incredibly pliant) is the extreme anger we are on the receiving end of by my father. He thinks we are plotting against him. He’s taken our concerns almost as personal insults about his character. He phoned one of our other relative and told them that we were all bullying him. It’s awful. He has an excuse for absolutely everything and I just don’t know what to do anymore. He’s saying the most hurtful things. We have got a memory test booked and he is livid about it - telling us that we have been conspiring behind his back. I’m not even sure he will consent to go, he is so angry. But he needs help.

Does anyone else have any experience with this type of anger? And what on earth can we do to help him in a way that won’t end up upsetting him more? I know this anger is due to brain damage and it isn’t his fault - I’m incredibly mindful of that and have made sure to explain that carefully to my family as well. But what happens if he simply refuses to be helped? He’s a big man and can honestly be quite frightening when he’s angry. I just don’t know what to do.

No show at her court appearance at the beginning of the year. No show at the MET Gala. No show at the Fendi event. The only time Ryan Reynolds has been photographed with his wife is in grainy staged pap photos where he looks like a hostage. Anything that involves publicly being in her company for an extended period of time and he’s a no show. This is not normal. I don’t care many people keep trying to pretend this is normal - it isn’t normal. I believe the reason they haven’t made a public joint statement like Emily and Justin is because Ryan has refused. My theory is that they are no longer together and are waiting till everything has blown over to announce their divorce.

(Also looking forward to some kind of staged pap walk/ Instagram story in response to this post, because that would be on form 😂)

Hear me out, because I think that video is going to really annoy the Reynolds - and not just because of the classy statement, but because they (Emily and Justin) continue to put on a united front, and this is something the Reynolds have never done. Ryan hasn’t been there for any of Blake’s social events or - importantly - for her day in court. He wasn’t there for the MET Gala - her first appearance after the settlement. He hasn’t supported her at any step of the way, apart from a couple of seedy pap photos and one cobbled together sentence on a talk show. In essence it seems that he now refuses to be seen with her in public in any kind of official capacity.

By contrast Emily has been there for Justin every second of this - she accompanied him to court and the two of them have continued to appear together regularly. They obviously have a very happy marriage. Now this video where to two of them look radiant and at peace with what has happened, meanwhile Blake continues her social media blackout while she fumes at home at not being invited to Taylor’s wedding.

With this in mind I feel like we should start taking bets on Blake and Ryan’s next tacky pap walk. What do you guys think? Piggybacking through New York again? Leapfrogging in LA? Cartwheeling through the centre of Vancouver?

So I understand that lodestar it is an analysis undertaken by the court to determine attorneys fees - but how is it regulated? Does the court just take the word of the party seeking funds at face value? Does/can it carry out its own investigations independently? A user on another thread mentioned a recent case where the judge found that a party had been duplicitous in its filing for fees after the lodestar analysis had taken place and that the party was then awarded zero fees as punishment. So let’s say a party has been duplicitous/ untrue/ exaggerated/ outright lied - at what point does the judge and reviewing body investigate that? Will a review of Lively’s request be taking place now or will the judge be waiting for WF’s response?

Thanks in advance!

First of all apologies about the APPALLING AI photo. Not me, for some reason this is the “photo” of Ryan Reynolds that Nuvei decided to use when revealing that RR had invested. Certainly a choice, I think you’ll all agree.

So according to sources online Nuvei is a “global payment technology partner that provides critical infrastructure for the crypto and digital assent industry.”

For context Nuvei used to partner with a company called FTX - a fraudulent crypto company that collapsed in 2022. Details re’ the FTX fraud lawsuit here; (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/mar/27/where-did-ftx-money-go)

Link between Nuvei and FTX here https://www.nuvei.com/posts/nuvei-announces-partnership-with-ftx-to-provide-instant-payment-solutions-on-one-of-the-worlds-largest-digital-currency-exchanges. Incredibly Nuvei are still proudly advertising this on their official website - they haven’t even taken it down, despite the founder of FTX being sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud.

In 2021 an investment firm called Spruce Point released a forensic report of Nuvei, accusing it of the following; “Nuvei, Under The Leadership of CEO/Founder Philip Fayer, Has Gone Through Multiple Rebrands And Has Demonstrated A Pattern of Shady Business Practices, Resulting In Fraud Allegations From Former Customers”. Full article here; https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20211208005594/en/Spruce-Point-Capital-Management-Announces-Investment-Opinion-Releases-Report-and-Strong-Sell-Research-Opinion-on-Nuvei-Corp.-NASDAQ-NVEI-TSX-NVEI

In more recent activity Nuvei was bought out in 2024 by private equity firm Advent https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/advent-buy-ryan-reynolds-backed-fintech-nuvei-63-bln-deal-2024-04-01/ according to Reuters; ‘such companies may be looking to go private to cut costs and avoid the quarterly reporting requirements that come with being a public company.’.

Ryan Reynolds invested with them in 2023 - so *after* their partner company had been convicted of fraud and *after* the damning review by Spruce. He did a few “face of Nuvei” promotions early on and then seemed so stop.

Thoughts?

So for some reason Reddit all of a sudden won’t let me post spoiler text so I can’t post the answer here (I’ll try and post in comments- see if that works). But does anyone have any idea how this clue works?

[EDIT answer is >!Dubious!< thank you fellow Redditor for your assistance!]
