Jinger's birthday video. This is the day where they took the photos of the nine sisters. I'm impressed that Stephen was in the kitchen helping the ladies chop vegetables for the meal. Jana might have a keeper.

I watched the first three episodes and I'm all in for the season. It's really an intriguing game, fairly well-produced, obviously with no expense spared, but OTOH it's not easy watching the psychological manipulation.

Oh, I mistakenly thought it was the IBLP. I didn't know they got it from the Old Testament.

After the princess remark, they interacted awkwardly with each other. Maybe it's because they're being videotaped, I don't know. It just didn't seem natural. And I'm shocked that JB complimented her off-the-shoulder gown.

Why did the producers take the time, trouble, and money to send the family and crew to London, and then barely show any of it? There was only one London episode and about 10 minutes at the beginning of the next episode and then boom--they were back home. You'd think there would be at least two or three full episodes of London adventures.

The IBLP stipulates that a certain amount of time has to go by before sex can start up again--the amount of days depends on whether you've had a girl or a boy. Yeah, weird. Of course, as the Duggar guys get married, they may be deciding to ignore that particular rule.

Thanks, everyone. I know so much about the older girls (kids, hubby, etc.), but I just never learned anything about those three for some reason, including which one was which. I guess because they aren't discussed as much as the older girls.

I'm familiar with and have participated in discussions on all the Duggar girls from Jana to Joy, and I know Josie is the youngest, but I can never remember which is which with the three in between. I know there's a Jordyn, Johannah (Hannie), and Jennifer. Could someone name them from left to right in the above picture between Joy and Josie? I must make an effort to memorize them this time. Yes, I have no life. 🙃

I saw that Vanessa's son got a certificate at the luncheon. Glad to see he's participating in the weight loss program. I read on Reddit that he's had the surgery.

I have no doubt the majority of the ladies will put the kibosh on that topic during the pre-show meeting and it'll never be discussed on air. And I say that as a Joe Biden fan, but I think it's a newsworthy topic that should be discussed.

A couple of hours ago, the double user names went away, but the really bad wonkiness came back. Clearing the cache didn't help, but I came back 10 minutes later and all was fine. So now I'm OK.

Lol, I spoke too soon. The display now looks like this, with two user name icons instead of one. But that's a minor problem.

All is working fine now. Thanks!

The wonkiness is back for me, but it could be a hiccup like you said. (It's a different kind of wonkiness--I can access more this time and at least send messages.) I'll check back tomorrow. Thanks for all your help.
