They are independent contractors for Viacom. No health insurance.

During an all-expense-paid vacation which is disguised as Maci being concerned for Cate, Maci shares a scripted update. In the preview, Catelynn to Tyler: "Oh, you shaved." What Tyler should have said in response: "Oh, I see you still don't bathe." Maci reveals to Cate she had a miscarriage in that preview.

She sent my urine out for a culture. That is all at this point until I see her on the 3rd. I have never had kidney issues before. My husband thought it might be related to a kidney stone, but I am not having any of the pain that is associated with kidney stones. My pain is mostly in the area of my bladder and just above my pelvic area. It is a pain and a crampy feeling. I will know more on my visit next week. In the meantime, I just keep wondering if this is the norm for some bladder infections. She also told me to avoid caffeine like the plague, drink cranberry juice and water. I will admit, I was drinking a lot of caffeine for the past three months. I have been busy working on something and I needed those jolts of energy. I hope I didn't do anything to my bladder with all that caffeine.

Of course, Leah would follow the orders of the cheer coach. But Dr. Tsao she ignores. Go figure.

Thank you @mamadrama for helping the kitten. I have rescued a few litters over the years myself. Not sure why stray cats always seem to pick my property to have their babies. I sometimes think my late beloved cat has a hand in that happening. She must be directing them to go to "that lady's house." Baby Stubbs is so damn precious. I just want to put my hands through the computer and hold that baby. I look forward to reading updates on Baby Stubbs. :-) Hey all, I have a question. I am dealing with a bladder infection. I have had bladder infections on two prior occasions. I took antibiotics and it cleared up easily on both occasions. I didn't even have any symptoms those two times. This time though, I have been dealing with some extreme pain. It started out as a dull ache that won't go away. I then have some crampy feeling near the pelvic area, almost like a menstrual cramp which was on a pain scale of 7. I had a hysterectomy back in 2011 so, I know it isn't anything associated with that. After two weeks I went to my doctor who diagnosed me with the infection. She gave me antibiotics. After a week of taking them the pain persisted and it got worse. I went back for follow-up. She gave me a stronger antibiotic. She sent out my urine for a culture. I will see her on April 3rd. When I urinate, it somewhat hurts to push, as if someone is pressing on my bladder. I will be done with my meds today, but I still have pain. Yesterday was the worse. I thought of going to the ER to get a pain shot around 3 in the morning, but I decided to just let it ride. The pain subsided after two hours, but that achy dull pain persists. My doctor said at my last appointment if this persisted, she'd send me out to have an ultrasound done. Have any of you ever had excruciating pain associated with a bladder infection? I am just concerned because my mind is thinking there might be a secondary issue going on rather than just a bladder infection.

Those flowers look exactly like the ones UBT bought for Jenelle a few weeks back. The ones he was showing in his Instagram photo where he had the kids and was pushing Eggsley in the grocery cart. The thought of those two shitbags being so close to me is nauseating.

I am sure Cate and Tyler must have shared a lot of their money in the beginning. Tyler buying tits for his sister surely started the ball rolling. I am sure they spread the wealth many times early on and when the family leeches demanded more, they stopped.

Ooooh good idea. lol In the meantime, here are Roxanne's flip flops:

This x100. At least if they were putting their money in investments, saving it, or doing what Gary and Jo are doing, they could be okay. These people will not have this show forever to carry them. C&T are in their mid-20s. When they are 35 years old, how will they pay for all the things they have now and all their expenses? Cate & Tyler are independent contractors. That means they don't have health insurance via their employer. They have to pay for it themselves, assuming they have any. What will happen when they no longer have this job? God forbid Cate has a real major health issue such as diabetes. How will she pay for her meds? Knowing Cate, she probably will forego the meds, just like she is now for her mental health issues. C&T can't even bother to pay their property taxes and they HAVE MONEY. What will happen when they don't have any money and tax time comes up? They want the kind of job that doesn't require them to do much labor. They want the easy route. At least put the money they are pulling in to good use to help them pursue endeavors that they are interested in, but they also have to be good at it. The drawback though is, they won't be able to maintain the lifestyle they have now. Vee, for example, is great with make-up. She was a natural for getting her cosmetology license not only because she liked the field, but also because she does well in that field. She can be her own boss and maybe own a salon down the road.

I don't smoke either. But I will enjoy some drinks. :-) @heatherchandler I think Amber aka Crystal Meth was with a different guy. @druzy can you clarify?

I can't help it. Even though I love that ad, it makes me think of Kail.

Because if she doesn't, UBT will smack her around. "Real man"? Perhaps that "real man" should hook up with that "real woman" named Amber. Your kids are ALWAYS outside. You lock them out so you and UBT can get high.

I want this damn series to end. I want to see how Kanal is going to support her brood once the gravy train is gone.

When Butch got clean and was out of rehab, he got himself a job. I know he is an abuser and whatnot, but I was really rooting for him because he seemed to be in a different place. He tried to make different choices and set up some goals. He went out and did something different to break the pattern of what his life was like before. The change has to be something the person really wants to do, and with Butch, he really seemed to want to better his life for himself, first and foremost. I know addicts will stumble along the way for the most part, some worse than others. Butch did relapse big time. Still, I commend him for at least getting a job and trying different avenues. Cate just goes home and does the same shit over and over and over again. No change, no goals. She can't even bother to commit herself to post-rehab therapy. It is something she will do down the road at a later time. She is in no hurry. She works at a snail's pace. She knows her safety net is MTV money and Tyler. Costco is too much work for Cate. Tyler wouldn't handle it either. Her sluggish attitude would get her discharged in a week. Or she might fake an anxiety attack to get out of doing something. I have a relative who works for Costco (great benefits, lots of perks for free health care, overtime, etc.) and believe me, they don't tolerate foolishness at that company. At least the one my relative works for. Cate probably wouldn't be able to drag herself out of bed on time. Tyler would probably be so manic and overwhelmed. A lot of kids straight out of high school apply and work for Costco thinking it is easy peasy , but they end up getting discharged because they can't keep up with the pace. Stocking shelves sometimes requires a forklift.

It looks like someone took that whisk there and used it on Nova's hair.

Remember when Kanal was rubbing Chelsea's belly and proclaiming she wanted a baby?

Would she be getting paid for that shit? Funny how this came on the heels of David's firing. Is money becoming an issue?

You don't get the channel? I know luggage gets lost and such. I had that happen when coming back into the country once. I received my luggage five days after we arrived home. If that was the issue with Amber's mom, I wonder why that wasn't mentioned? Then again, it is a reality show and a lot of stuff gets edited out for more dramatic effect. Or maybe she just forgot to pack them? I know, I should not give her the benefit of the doubt. Just trying to come up with why she doesn't have her meds.

I'd like to know, too. They not only bleeped it out, his lower face was blurred out as well. I guess in the event of lip reading. There was mention of opiates so, it couldn't be that. I was thinking something like coke. Unless the network is covering their ass and did not want to get hit with some kind of slander suit by Amber. @Bridget ?❤

I am back and forth on the allegations Matt made about Amber's mom. I want to believe what he says, but this is Matt, the lying liar of all liars. But there is the fact that Amber is a violent person. She is an abuser. It almost makes sense that Amber likely watched her mother abuse her father and that is how she learned to deal with guys. Amber's mom seems somewhat meek on this show, but in the early seasons of TM, I swear she wasn't. She might get riled up when she is fueled by alcohol which then causes her to erupt. I remember Amber's dad when he was on the show. He was sickly. He also didn't do anything when Amber was assaulting Gary in his presence.

That poor turtle in the aquarium. Someone clean that damn water.

We have way too many Davids and Ambers on this damn show. And they are both affiliated with Cate and Tyler. Are we going to have to make a nickname for Cate's dad? I get a feeling he is here for the long haul and his MTV paycheck.

lol @druzy hidden contents. Amber is angry. What the hell else is new? Gary & Kristina, and anyone with common sense, know Amber is a bad mother. Tyler struggles to keep HIS clothing business up and running while his dad is at free rehab and his wife is vacationing in Arizona. Maci has nothing going on and her scripted storyline continues. MTV pays for her airline ticket and hotel so she can travel to visit Cate at her vacation spot.

You lookin' so gay there, UBT. lol

hahaha I think she is actually molding it so it looks more elongated. Maryssa does not want any competition. She will throw Eggsley around in no time, just like she tosses around Kaiser and Jace. Just wait. Hell yes!!! Remember when Gracie was considered the evil child? Maryssa has taken the crown.
