Wow, is Anna on some kind of uppers in that clip starting at 9:53? Is it possible to be giddier to speak more quickly?

So Bowman Fedosky, the son of Teresa (the "midwife" who kills newborns via negligence) and Scott (the narc addict "doc"), did a Reddit AMA, and from what I've read, I'm impressed by his articulateness and humor. This particular piece of gold stood out:

I guess "Joyful Noyes/Rodriguez/whatever" home school doesn't include lessons on symmetry? Although those creations are unique--that I'll give them.

Someone posted a previous video of an analysis that this body language expert did in another thread, but here's a new one discussing JB where he makes clear what a total asshole and failure as a parent he thinks he is:

Interesting, because they're all gone now--I wonder if of their own volition or otherwise.

Where do you see this? I looked at all the likes for his post and I don't see amy family members or adjacent there.

One of the government witnesses did an AMA that's kind of interesting:

https://www.nwahomepage.com/josh-duggar-trial/josh-duggar-trial-ends-the-conclusion-and-the-guilty-verdict/ Here it is: Duggar was found guilty on both charges he faced, receipt of child pornography and possession of child pornography. The judge issued a stay of conviction on possession as a “lesser included offense.” At a press conference after court adjourned, prosecutor Dustin Roberts explained that procedure. “By function of law, you cannot be convicted of both,” he said.

In the press conference, the prosecuting atty, in response to a question from a reporter, says "ultimately this will be one count," and that the lesser charge (receipt?) is included in the greater. So does that mean the sentencing will be only for the one count?

From the DuggarsSnark SubReddit:

Such a strong resemblance between Gid and Austin's mom in that photo (no comment about those poor cats).

Yeah, I saw the video and was like, what the hell was that? Is she counting on attracting a whole new fan base? Because this new, chirpy, energetic persona she's apparently adopting just makes it seem like she sniffed a bunch of glue. It was more like she was trying to channel Jill than coming across as herself. I mean, it's not like we haven't already had years' worth of her personality documented on video. It was just bizarre. Kinda like that Insta story she posted of Ben doing that death glare at her. Her new PR peeps are really doing a bang-up job 🤭

Tiffy looks like a twig and Mimi must be sucking all the life out of Poppy, because he's looks more Grim Reaperish than usual. Lydia could do much better than a Rod boy; I'd hope she'd have the sense to aim higher.

Maybe Esther could've borrowed one of Abbie's hair clips. Her hair hanging in her face and obscuring her eyes was an atrocity, IMO. (What is it with these fundies and common sense?)

From the DuggarsSnark Subreddit.

Confirmation she's seemed to embrace pants culture:

Well, Alyssa has demonstrated a consistent inability to spell even elementary words like "dining" correctly (she constantly made references to her "dinning room" on her Instagram over a period of months until someone finally couldn't take it anymore and corrected her--so, yeah, more advanced words like "midevil" don't stand a snowball's chance in hell of coming even close), as well as a total ignorance of cardinal directions (I swear, she got all four of them wrong during family Pictionary night) . . . so maybe her kids are better off with the iPad teacher.

I think they both have too much length, but Jessa looks at least one order of magnitude more ridic because her hair is so thick it's like a heavy curtain. I wonder if she gets migraines from carrying around all that extra weight? Also, Jana has better fashion sense, so overall, with her it's just a better presentation. If Jessa hadn't already scored a man, just based on the outward package, I'd bet no one would give her a second glance <smirk> (not that I'm condoning judging people based on appearances, but, hey, people do do it, and this group--meaning the Duggars--certainly isn't adverse to it). Or maybe that's why she's let herself go, because she's already got herself a man and doesn't feel the need to make herself look good for anyone? 🤔 (Although she could still get a decent haircut. What about for practical reasons? Wouldn't you think she and Ben get all tangled up in it during sex?)

In the screenshot they aren't holding hands, but in the video clip, they actually are when they walk out of the courthouse. They're not only holding hands for the duration of the clip JoanArc posted above but are swinging arms in that cutesy, we're-so-in-love way teenagers do.

OK, to be fair, this was the episode where Jessa was having some (staged) mother/daughter bonding time with Michelle in a coffee shop and they were discussing her and Ben's courtship and the different ways individuals give and receive love. Jessa mentioned how Ben told her that if he could, he would give her 100 flowers (or something like that), and her response was, "Well, what would I do with all of those flowers?" to which Michelle laughed and said (paraphrased), "Oh, Jessa! I would have said, 'Awww, Ben, that's so sweet!'" Also to be fair, at least in this episode, Jessa herself admitted to having a "cut and dried" personality and there are numerous talking heads of different family members describing her as not an effusive, warm type of person. So certainly based on what we were shown here, I would think Ben should have known what he was walking into.

Packing the many suitcases whenever they went on a trip?

It's each kid for themself in that house. Jessa's either checked out or preoccupied with filming, but either way, the video doesn't make her look like a great parent. Was she disciplined so harshly as a child that she now goes the opposite way and there are no rules whatsoever in her household? I keep thinking she used to be better and something happened, but maybe now that the kids are older, her atrocious parenting skills are becoming more obvious.

What hasn't changed is Michelle's vacant "Britney Spears" smile. Such a sad, stark contrast to everyone else's. I wonder what happened to her to damage her so much.

But it's the Duggars, so wouldn't no interacting with strangers sorta be the rule?

I love how the other people in the audience are basically looking at them like they're freaks. In other questions, what happened to Katey's nose? Did she rub bronzer down the bridge of it (why)? Did she annoy just one too many people, as is the Duggar way, and pay the price? Did she lie out in the sun at a particular angle? Inquiring minds want to know.
