Have not posted for fear of spoilers but as you can imagine I have thoughts

To change the subject a little, I am now 100% caught up on seaosn 4

He just said he got insecure about it when wearing light colored shirts, so I don’t think anything super extreme? And yeah, F also said it was a bad idea! I have never researched but it seems intuitively screwy to me.

Stops then from sweating evidently!
April 14, 2023 at 3:21 AM
I hear this, but seem to super vary in terms of that too! Like on the ultimatum it seems like it was sort of a breaking the 3rd wall plot point what people were doing on vs off camera
April 14, 2023 at 3:19 AM
No! Just saw that link going around today though so maybe soon

It does make me want to rewatch a perfect match!

Which legit kinda confuses me. I notice I’m confused. He knew it was all being filmed!!! Which I sort of file under “I don’t get people” and “people don’t care about integrity” and stuff like that, but I still don’t get it!!

At least not the part we saw on camera. But it was sort of vulnerable and self aware and stuff?

But then the deal with F at the engagement party was so over the top!

I think my favorite Damian moment was when he did kinda admit that he was feeling shame about having put his job in jeopardy to go on the show and how he wanted to provide for her. It didn’t meet my bar for being honest about what happened…
April 13, 2023 at 11:28 PM
Though I get the sense maybe she kinda liked that he was condescending, which 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️. Also not sure what to make of the fact that her mom likes Damian so much
April 13, 2023 at 11:27 PM
Whereas Damian seems to consistently try to make it seem like things that totally happened didn’t happen, and seems pretty condescending to me in general
April 13, 2023 at 11:26 PM
She does get pretty loud, including in public, but I think nothing she said seemed super below the belt to me? And it seemed pretty owned overall, both her complaints on the object level and that she knows how she is in conflicts
April 13, 2023 at 11:26 PM
Yeah they seem like they have a pretty terrible relationship, which I think is a cold take. I’m personally considerably more sympathetic to her side of it than his
April 13, 2023 at 11:24 PM
I’m happy to admit it’s all more complicated and connect on a more human level etc.

So with that out of the way
April 13, 2023 at 11:22 PM
I feel like I need a disclaimer that I know they are real people with feelings and all that, but otoh they did kinda sign up for this! If by any weird twist of fate any reality TV people ever read what I write…
April 13, 2023 at 11:21 PM
Yes so I stole this from a podcast but omg it was funny when Francesca finally ~called Damian “toxic” for Botox ing his armpits
April 13, 2023 at 11:16 PM
A bunch of us really do call ourselves rationalists!
April 13, 2023 at 11:15 PM
Something in my brain is like “no that is not how branding is supposed to work” with a very particular felt sense 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️
April 13, 2023 at 6:59 AM
Indeed on both counts!

If they were explicitly objecting to the interruption of it I wouldn’t see much point, but for some kids at least it isn’t always that
April 13, 2023 at 5:12 AM
My kids have at young ages seemed genuinely confused about stuff like this. Like either they find the video hilarious or they’re like no I don’t want to watch that (fair lol) in a way that makes me think it can close a gap
