I am over these enablers covering for these shitty men

Because that’s what they are. Kristen ought to be ashamed of herself defending Danny and refusing to see his behavior. She damn well knows. I was starting to like her, but she’s always defended abusive men, ie: Jax. Zach throwing Brittany under the bus about her not liking Nia is bullshit. She was also concerned. The dog piling on Janet for calling the shit out last year is also bullshit. I am glad Janet called it and now Lala is calling it. People, especially the women are being silenced or risking being ostracized by the whole group, like Janet. And regarding Janet, stop trying to apologize to Nia because she is not willing to hear her concerns. Jasmine refuses to discuss it and also turned on Janet for the assault that happened and that is also disturbing. Michelle normalized the abuse with Jesse so her saying she is less affected by Danny’s actions is also minimizing the behaviors and it’s not ok. Lala is right, Kristen has formed an alliance with Danny and Nia. Like Lala or not, she has been correct about the signs of abuse. I am glad she told Kristen if she is really a friend, then step in. This is a toxic friend group and they want to keep the dysfunctional systems and when its called out, they are scapegoated.

I am seeing a lot of speculation and we don’t know the extent of this diving tragedy in the Maldives

Title speaks for itself. We need to be mindful and try not to jump to conclusions nor make judgments. It’s very sad and scary. The number one rule is to make it back safely. Personally I will not try cave diving. We don’t know if the divers were certified tech or cave divers. I feel bad for everyone involved in this accident. Glad DAN Europe is going to help with the rescue effort. Just be safe and don’t go beyond our limits. Inshallah.

Calling the abuse out to the abuser

I commend Lala for calling out the verbal abuse coming from Danny. Of course Jesse knew, but did nothing. I would like to see other men on the cast call out any verbal abuse and ask these men what is going on with them. It’s not okay and it should not fall on the women to make it stop. It’s clear Nia will try to keep this behavior behind closed doors, because she is not ready. Nonetheless, I am glad she let Lala check Danny. Also wanted to point out I am glad Lala did not pull Nia aside and say she does not like the way Danny talks to her to put the onus on her to make it stop. Men especially need to tell these abusive men, no more and knock it off.

Seriously, if don’t support the US Regime, stop watching TV shows/movies that support it

The title speaks for itself. Stop supporting tv shows and movies with people who support the regime and who refuse to speak out against it. Some maybe consider themselves apolitical or remain silent, but that is just as bad. ie: I refuse to watch the Devil Wears Prada 2 because Anne Hathaway attended the Met Gala. I also don’t want to watch the World Cup matches in the US. Stop giving these people a platform. Also stopped Housewives a couple of years ago and just made the decision to stop watching the 90 Day franchise.
If it means missing out on entertainment, then oh well. Find hobbies or read books.

Did not see this show mentioned for Bravo TV lineup

Not sure if this show is on pause or cancelled, but I did not see it listed for the upcoming Bravo TV lineup. The Valley Persian Style was renewed for season 2. Considering this season has been lackluster, I would not be surprised if it’s cancelled.

Done with Reality TV shows-don’t know where else to post

I used to watch Real Housewives, about to quit watching the 90 Day franchise as it’s getting worse. Those were the main reality tv franchises I watched and I realized this has really dumbed people down and glamorizes horrible behavior. Also encourages people to consume crap they don’t need. I am over seeing people exploiting themselves and making idiots of themselves on national tv. It explains why the US is in the current state of affairs. I understand wanting to escape, but I am going to replace it with reading so my brain does not rot.

About to stop watching altogether

I watched the first episode and omg. How low can they really go? I am going to check out the next episode to see the remaining couples, but already this is sewage level. Honestly, this is the sign of the times of how in the toilet this country really is and is only going to get worse. I cannot believe a woman had the audacity to say she has friends who support the deportations and is going to bring her fiance from Turkey to be subjected to this??? This is becoming normalized and it’s beyond disturbing. I am seriously considering skipping this show altogether. I was disturbed after seeing it and never felt that way about an episode of the 90 Day franchise ever.

I understand my friend is going through a lot trying to stay afloat, but she is always complaining about how her job stresses her out, family drama, just rarely has anything good to say anymore. I empathize with her situation, as it’s very rough out there, but she rarely asks what I am up to, unless I interrupt.

We decided to buy a two bedroom place, as rent is going up and I did not tell her right away because I know she is stressed and not in a great place. When I told her about the home after we moved in, she did not congratulate me, which I let go, but she said send her pictures and asked when we are getting furniture. What brought the furniture remark is when she visited last year, no we did not have a lot of furniture, but we were overseas prior. I thought that remark was rude. But I let that one go to. I sent her pictures and she never responded.

Although I don’t expect a huge congratulations, I thought her actions were off putting. I am kind of disappointed in her, so I am just going to give her space.
