Heathen

Hopefully it's one with a balky wheel that falls off on camera. I'd also like the helmet to be messed up so we can see what's really underneath. This does not compare to what I wish for Mullet Duggar. I maintain that she's the primary driving force (though not the only one) behind the zillion kids and the attendant abuse.

It reminds me in a way of Mullet Duggar water-skiing. Like this is what they each would have enjoyed doing if not for god and religion and a zillion kids they apparently are not interested in.

Those photos are so heavily filtered. I'd bet that while dull, they're not THAT dull in person.

Seriously, the photographer couldn't pick a patch of grass that wasn't beat to shit? Or frame the shot so that bare dirt didn't take up so much of the photos? Good god.

Taking the baby to Washington for her treatment, where her parents could help her with childcare and transportation, might have allowed her to conserve her strength for treatment. At home, she'd have had five other children pestering her even if her sisters-in-law did the bulk of the daily household stuff. Not to mention the travel to and from her treatments in Kansas might have been onerous. Hell, maybe she just wanted a Pepsi.

No, I think that was David Waller's sister.

My money's on "anniversary party for the Kellers." I don't see a problem with the nicer cake at the Kellers' reception. It isn't their fault the Rodriguii are cheap-ass grifters who wouldn't pay for a decent reception for their daughter. Jilly probably expected to con a better cake out of someone, anyway.

I didn't realize the Wallers had had another child. I checked out their blog -- private jet to Florida. Rebekah's husband must be quite wealthy. (Good for her.) I have to say one thing. I have always thought the Waller children are truly loved, fundie though their parents are. They're more than just a damn number and they're well-cared for. Take that, Duggars 1.0.

I keep thinking the Kellers are younger than I thought they were. Forty years doesn't seem like as long as I expected them to have been married. Who is their eldest child?

It was the same when 19K showed Smuggar and Ofsmuggar at the business before Mackynzie was born. There was hardly any traffic, and there was Ofsmuggar, making notes on a steno pad like a real professional dealership. *eye roll* I bought a new (used) car this week, and there was no steno pad or the owner's wife or a repurposed kitchen table involved.

I'm familiar with Pervis Payne's case, in general terms. My comment about Jill's motivation was cynical. It's wildly off topic so I will keep my points to myself about the arbitrary benchmark IQ of 70 designating intellectual disability.

And *gasp* joining a church other than one led by Steve? 😮

The cynic in me says Pervis Payne must be born again or some other near-fundie. Born-agains on death row tend to prompt a lot of evangelical support (see: Karla Faye Tucker). But maybe Jill has a heartfelt conviction (ha) against the death penalty. I hope that's the case.

Is he creepy? Odd? Please, not another anal rapist?

Sarah Mally got married? How old/creepy is her husband, and how many kids does he have?

Anybody else notice that David Rodrigues didn't even bother to button his damn suit jacket to walk his firstborn down the aisle? Jill and David weren't behind the door when class was handed out, they were ten miles away and walking in the opposite direction. I know somebody will say he COULDN'T button his suit jacket over his enormous gut. I thought the same. But the jacket appears to be big enough to cover his belly. Other thoughts: Nathan and Nurie are both so homely, any children they produce will either be butt-ugly or absolutely stunning, in the weird way of human genetics. And they're both so skinny, I can see them producing kids who are as rotund as the grandfathers.

He looks like he's eating her face in the third (?) photo.

Her dress is pretty, what we can see of it. There is probably some fundie monstrosity lurking just out of sight. It makes me cringe to see people not wearing masks or social distancing.

The Maxwells are superior to a lot of fundies in that they don't obviously dick around when family members need medical care. See: Melanie and her high-risk pregnancies.

I wonder if they chose laser surgery to preserve her breastfeeding capability. I have a bad feeling that having cancer will not end well for Anna Marie or her children.

There are idiots with medical training everywhere. I know a PA who thinks the flu vaccine is designed to make money for Big Pharma.

She's wearing more makeup than I ever have for Halloween, let alone normal life. I guess the Rodriguii are lucky they don't have the Duggar acne problem (it doesn't look like they do, anyway).

I forgot about her. She was nuts, too. Re: Carlin the moron. I was reading earlier about the death from influenza of a four-year-old from an antivax family, complete with dumbass mother. I really think that something like that, except probably an infant, will happen to a Bates or Duggar or their offshoots. I'm surprised it hasn't already, except for the slim chance that they're not really as stupid as they appear on social media.

Or a lightly padded one. Fundies are so damned weird.

Thanks, all who beat me to it. Lydia of Purple and the homely-ass daughters, and Emily and Dna, were my first nutcase fundies. "Sixth daughter is 19 and always ready." FOR WHAT, pray tell?!
