| QUOTE (bleucheese @ 1/4/2024, 17:02) is it classist to do something stupid like pixie dust doors on a $6000 cruise? the people who are on it can afford to decorate their doors if they want to.
the kids are growing up in two mansions (one moudly, one ginormous), they're not going to learn to be exclusionary through this.
You're right that a Disney cruise isn't exactly a place where you'll find many people financially struggling. However, the classist teaching here goes beyond the cruise environment. Jen is conditioning her kids to think that the person who has the most and shows off the most is worthy of even more things (gifts and admiration). As you said, they're already growing up in an extremely privileged environment. It wouldn't hurt to not reinforce the look-up-to-the-richest mentality. (The exact reason she went after Don.)
Jen is a sad little fucked up fug-ling. She'll wag her wet tail and waddle in the direction of wherever the most stuff and most money is no matter what. She's now encouraging her children to behave the same way by recompensing and focussing their attention on displays of wealth. For someone who goes on about her monthly Patreon dollar donations to "good causes", she sure doesn't walk the walk in real life.  |

And the exact same Pet Place stickers books for the cruise because the sibs like to play together but not share. |

| QUOTE (TheHairyChild @ 29/3/2024, 19:54) Also, she said at least twice she didn’t want to work on the vacation, but she was bringing her laptop because she had to work on the plane. Omfg. To do what? The flight isn’t even that long is it? She’s such a sewious business wady.
She's a single momma, doing it all, after all. You bet that when the flight attendant or fellow flyer tells her something about the kids, she'll be like "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm working over here, so busy! I need to finish this important task before we are on holiday. It never ends, does it? Haha." |

Hey now, a kidnapping attempt builds character! Toughens up the little ones. Nothing to worry about.  |

There's no way this lady can get through a job interview for the most menial of positions without the recruiter trying to find a way to cut the interview short and get her out the building. She's the strangest combination of lazy and an ultra overthinker.
She truly is. For someone who overthinks this much, she's absolutely terrible at coming up with simple solutions and shortcuts. She just rambles on and on and on while doing barely anything. I'm not surprised it takes her so long to pack.
Did you, too, have your brain shut down when she started going on about her journaling stuff? "I already fit my books into one of the kids' bags but I think i'm gonna put - I don't love checking my journaling stuff because it's precious to me and I wanna keep it close but I also, if I'm carrying their iPads, I need more room in my backpack So, I think I'll probably end up packing my journaling stuff in here. [etc.]"
Oh lordy lord of the lords and lordesses, help me stay sane as I finish this video.  |

| StagingShelf and SecondaryStagingPlace are both available if lurkers wish to join. 
Packing Jen's brain is a special kind of Jen mush. "I've moved the staging area into the secondary staging place which is my bed, historically." There's no way this lady can get through a job interview for the most menial of positions without the recruiter trying to find a way to cut the interview short and get her out the building. |

| Of course, Jen once again brings ducks to hide on the ship when the Disney Cruise Line policy is not to hide things, including ducks. 
She truly is fond of choking hazards and environmental single use waste. And extra work for the plebs! I mean, that might encourage the Disney Cruise Line to hire one more person to help clean up all the ducks... Trickle-down economics! You can thank her later. |

| | She said she might be roadtripping with the kids this summer. That should make some fun speculation for whether she's taking Blue back to the burbs (and whether she's thinking about getting a puppy during the warmer season - which is easier for potty training). |

| I'm two minutes in and she's so incredibly frumpy looking. It's 2024 Jen in all her splendor. The overcomb with her two short face-framing hairs, the tired grey skin and the wrinkly spirit jersey. She couldn't even be bothered to steam her spirit jersey to film a video for her paying subscribers.  |

| I have some cheese-loaded bread slices grilling in the oven, a bottle of wine freshly uncorked and my Friday night free of any obligations. I am going to watch the utter capitalist madness that is Jen's Pack + Chat video. A cruise bin? Special cruise PJs? More Minnie ears? More stuffies and plushies?

| QUOTE (BannedInUtah @ 28/3/2024, 15:25) Gene always treated SMD like shit so I guess she expected him to quietly keep his meat in the garage, not ask for the wonderland and relinquish all the hashbrowns for eternity.
Gene's main problem is her refusal to do actual therapy and get unpleasant with herself (she has a huge narcissistic wound to acknowledge and then heal) so she gets unpleasant with everyone else. It's an extremely unhealthy way of dealing with the deep-seated feeling of inferiority she hides by acting so superior and better than the rest of the world, including her own kids. Classic case, really, not original at all. She'll keep growing more and more resentful of people as she ages and her universe collapses into just herself, no one left. Her Thanksgiving 2023 stories were an excellent example of her need to dislike the few people she has left just to feed her broken ego. Her current misery is nothing compared to what she'll experience in 15-20 years' time. |

Thanks! No idea why my post was deleted by the mods though. Are there new Bakery rules I'm not aware of?
Saygoodnightgraciedo I'm so sorry. I hope your husband's medical team is awesome and can help him through this, both the post-surgery care and life change. Take good care of yourself, too! Gene's shot in the saddlebags with luck but it's running out. She is starting to feel the effects of how she brutalised her body all these years and it's only the start. Karma's headed her way. I don't doubt for a minute it's not just the hip and feet but also the knee cartilage, back, etc. It's all coming. |
