So you’re advocating there should be no repercussions for amoral behavior? My takeaway from the Scarlet Letter was a little different. More about how Mr Reverend got away without a blemish on his reputation and IMO poor Hester was likely raped. Good point - but I don’t really see the comparison.

I’m all for one’s getting help for mental health issues. See Mr. DC - I pay an extra $500/month on already good company health insurance to get the top plan (medications). It’s also very useful as he broke his knee (really). I won’t get into how I’m keeping his pet service business alive on top of my full time, luckily remote job. That shit’s pretty lucrative BTW. But sometimes people are just unbelievable assholes. I’m 50/50 on whether this is just a convenient excuse for to hide out. Not that I blame her. I could see myself doing the same thing. Except I’m just a petty bitch and would never do anything like this (ingratiating herself into Ariana’s life as a loyal, “best” friend), much less on national TV. So yes - there is something obviously very wrong with her. She’s obviously stupid at least. Junior Soprano at Jackie Jr’s funeral comes to mind.

“Ariana never asked. Dude I’m going to Schwartz’. All she had to do was follow me and see that I’m not”. Yes. He really said that.

55 minutes in (had to go walk dogs). Here comes more gaslighting.

31 minutes in and she’s got those galaxy lights going…

I just got to James and the little cocky cock and his stinky 40-yr old cock comments. Missed if he called anybody fat. I can’t believe I’m saying this - but I love you James Kennedy. I actually always thought he was pretty funny - despite all his faults. I also think Stassi is pretty funny - so judge away.

25 minutes in (see Good as Gold). Kudos to Katie for not saying I told you so.

Let’s just rename Sandy & Schwartzy’s (or whatever it is called Douchey and Douchier). Schwartz is trying to gaslight us too (18 minutes in).

Holy fuck. There is an Uber Eats commercial with Scheana, Ariana and Lala singing my all time favorite Good as Gold? See you in a bit. Going to watch that a few more times.

That white manicure is making me stabby. I’m like that (10 minutes in).

I apologize for underestimating her. Ariana is a queen (six minutes in). And yes FI Tom - it’s totally about somebody stroking your ego.

That sounds highly similar to the Great Pyr Property Laws I have posted on my fridge. She’s a narcissist too. That’s why we call her Mimi (Me!Me!). I fucking adore her. Ariana totally fucked him before he could get his story straight. Way to go Ariana!

Fuck the job. I gotta watch Sandoval try to gaslight all of us live. And with bourbon.

I’m fucked. Tomorrow is the one day a month I need to go into office.

I agree

WTF was Raquel’s car doing there? I’m sure they were wasted - did she then drive off? Nobody seems to be able to keep their stories straight. It was also mentioned that the notorious Face Time video was taken the day before Ariana found it - while Sandoval was at Schwartz’ apartment. As said previously somebody really needs to punch Schwartz in the dick. He’s known the entire time - nobody’s going to convince me otherwise, which makes his behavior towards Katie this season really indefensible.

I just listened to that yesterday. I should have gone but only had one person to go with and she already had plans. They were on fire. Particularly Ronnie - I almost fell off the treadmill.

I agree. But she’s an adult and needs to realize actions have consequences. Especially if you’re on national TV. I don’t think anybody though (including me) thought this would blow up the way that it did. I haven’t even posted about the last episode cause it was so fucked up. There is something seriously wrong with her. I have a hard time “forgiving” her cause a lot of what we’ve seen over the season is just plain cruel.

I’m heading in now. I watched Arya Stark destroying the House of Frey to get me in the mood. It also get’s me extra worked up as GRRM is never going to finish those books. Off topic?

So is this the penultimate episode and finale next week?

Deleting double post since I’m apparently not smart enough to distinguish between the new edit and quote function yet.

They’re kinda fucked on the house cause the rise in interest rates really hits the higher end market more (you’re not going to “move up” if your current mortgage is at 4%). They can thank Jerome Powell for that (don’t get me started on using a demand tool to solve a supply problem - we’ll see how that goes, and he is obviously smarter than me). Katie and Tom sold their house at the exact right time. Ariana should buy him out and wait it out. House will be valued low and she’s making tons of bank now. Anybody got any guesses? I’m guessing $1M between Dancing with the Stars, Lifetime movie and everybody else lining up clamoring to do business with her. It also helps that every episode pretty much shows her being blindsided by this and loyal as fuck. Fuck you Sandoval. Enjoy your new crappy apartment. But you know he’s going to be an asshole about the equity loan he took out for Schwartz and Sandy’s and all the money they spent decorating it.

That sounds fucking stupid.

Yep. That was pretty obvious from the first season. Hence the moniker FI Tom. There is nothing Sandoval enjoys more than looking at himself in the mirror. Sorry about the narcissist in your family. Mine doesn’t have that (thankfully). We’re more like a wolf pack - pick on the weakest one (still love them, and it’s made me pretty agile). We’d tear him to shreds.

On rewatch - you know what’s really over too, Schwartz’ sad puppy dog shtick. It really puts the last 10 years in perspective.
