In my professional opinion, YIKES!

Valid. Zero still counts as "a maximum of one". I was considering the possibility that there was something she cared about him for, not apparent in the post, that would explain why she had wanted to pair up with him in the first place.

Oooh, good catch! I hadn't noticed that. Yes, she should update her will, and NOT in the way that he wants. She should see that her daughters are taken care of, because the wicked stepfather sure won't.

When a woman boasts of having leveled up in Strength, or anything else, you congratulate her and say "Good job! You are a badass!" You do not make it into a damn competition.

Another man poisoned by red pills.

If she really cares about him, she'll give him ONE chance to stop watching Tate. If he won't, then tell him he's made his choice and can go fuck the Man-O-Sphere now, because she's going to set some limits and leave him.

Since they've only been married six months, I had thought "written new wills" would mean making wills that included one another as beneficiaries, which she probably should not do now.

Already he's badmouthing her parents and the "possibly autistic" young daughter. If this is allowed to continue pretty soon he'll insist on kicking the adult daughter out of the nest and sending the younger to Autism Wellness School. His dream home will be out in the middle of nowhere.

Grrl, RUN!

He's trying to raise his son to be as abusive as he is, and the boy isn't having any of that. That's the one good aspect of this story.

I want to have a word with all her friends who convinced her it would be stupid to end the engagement over the cats. That was the first step in isolation attempts

Without a will, the daughters get half of whatever estate she has.

Do to him what he did to your pie.

Reader, she is not, in fact, "crazy". He's been incredibly lucky to have her, and doesn't even know it.

Until they broke up she did, at least.

Everybody needs to be with someone whose heart races when they think of them...but only the fortunate few truly get there. Being with someone whose heart grows warm and fuzzy will do better than solitude.

So...having sex with Incels causes them to not be Incels, and therefore--having sex with them would cause Incels to die out. So--to preserve the subspecies, it's good for you to not have sex with them, I guess.

Men are doing it to themselves. Make yourselves useful! Treat women with respect! Leave the Republicans, the Man-O-Sphere, and the church. And for the love of Goddess PLEASE start showering regularly!

That's a YIKES from me.

inorite? I got drunk with the bros one time, and we accidentally annexed the Sudetenland. I was so mortified to wake up, hungover, with Neville Chamberlain shaking my hand....

The nurse we're going to need when we're old and hospitalized is currently using ChatGPT to cheat their way through nursing school.

Let me guess. The Man-O-Sphere has declared that wearing underpants "is gay".

According to Vogue, messy hair is about to be the season's hottest trend. Several of my female pals report looking forward to suddenly becoming fashionable. Your mileage may vary.

Maybe it's a joke.

Please, let it be a joke.

Having your own space is empowering.
