This is based on nothing but speculation, but I wonder if her career took the path it took because of what she did/didn’t do for roles. I’m sure she has plenty of stories of sketchy directors and execs. She was everywhere for a while and then just got sidelined

I've kept coming back to this all day. It just feels so tragic and so...inevitable? We've seen time and time again what being in public does to young women and each time we're still devastated but a little less surprised

Tahirih Justice Center serves immigrant survivors of gender-based violence. They are involved in helping domestic violence victims with immigration services as often they have escaped their country in the hopes to escape their abuser. There have been several cases of the administration deporting these women back only for them to die at the hands of their abuser.

Given the politics of the family and the fact that many of these immigrant women don’t have a family to lean upon, it’s a fitting org to support

Here’s an article from the Marshall project on how ICE is making it harder for victims of domestic violence: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2025/11/22/women-police-ice-domestic-violence

he wrong "sinful and abusive ways" and "done things I promised myself I would never do" I definitely read that as full on abuse. a one off thing wouldn't have that much language couched around it

I wonder if he just resists or isn’t comfortable in them. My kid resisted every single kind and we just kinda chalked it up to her not liking them. BUT THEN! At the 6 week mark we learned she had torticolis and generally lower muscle tone (it was only caught then even though we’d been going to every doc appointment and whatnot). And our physical therapist explained that kids with lower muscle tone and/or torticolis generally don’t do carriers that much.

Which brings this back to full circle, if she’s not wearing him it might be because he can’t or won’t be in it. And that could later down be itself a flag that something isn’t totally okay here

Man, she was leaving voice mails to Marc Anthony at his house while he was still married to the miss universe. Their messiness matches up perfectly lol

crayonbox

Dollars to donuts she didn’t know who she was. Or thought she was the singer who did titanic and not much else. It’s not an excuse. She doesn’t strike me as someone who makes efforts to expand her world view

You know, I thought the way she wrote the name was a deliberate misspelling the same way that dav of the bard sisters does. Like, her way of making the name “Christian” or some nonsense. I didn’t realize that her way was a legit spelling until I googled it. Yea, in that capacity, then using it as a punchline doesn’t make a lot of sense. I thought the joke was about the misspelling, not the use all together.

I think the issue is that the ex doesn’t know the guy, so she doesn’t know if he’s creepy or shady, or anything about him. So for all she knows, he could be someone that she doesn’t want her kids around. Just because the ex and new wife know the guy, doesn’t mean that she’s vetted him.

I also think that the OP probably didn’t tell her about their guest until it was too late for them to do anything substantial about it.

It’s just bad communication all around for everyone

Edited to add: referencing your comment about people wouldn’t appreciate being treated as such - if I had been in BIL shoes I would have understood and accepted the hotel accommodation. The reality is that you don’t know who or who isn’t a molester, and if a parent tells me that because they don’t know me, they don’t want me to spend the night near their kid - I will accept that. It’s different if they did know each other and the ex was being mean spirited about it and intentionally wanting to cause drama. But in this case she doesn’t know the guy. 1 in 3 women are assaulted in some capacity in their lifetime, while most people aren’t molesters - many of them are. And being cautious is a fair thing to be.

For my wife and my first anniversary (paper), i found some artists on Ig and commissioned illustrations of some of our favorite pictures (we’ve been together 13 years at that point). None of them came out bad, idk if they sent over the draft of the work - but if these were the drafts I would have cancelled the rest of the engagement there if I didn’t see improvement. Im not even on social media like that, but even I know how to give enough notes so that you don’t get this disaster (assuming she paid for any of them)

The audacity to not even spell check when asking for 2k

crayonbox

“Another” account? Is there a sanitized account that they share or screenshots or something

crayonbox

Nah, it would require a certain level of humility she does not have. It would go over her head, and if anything, make her worse

crayonbox

She’s probably planning on doing that Ig picture where people put their IVF needles around the baby, but with these. People are weird.

crayonbox

Wait until she realizes that in some countries, if she’s a refugee they may still separate her from her baby when it’s born bc they’ll have different citizenship until she can get the legal paperwork figured out

crayonbox

The caucasity of this audacity has reached maximum capacity
