    🍷 My First Impressions of the New 90 Day Fiancé Season

    Warning: Spoilers ahead for the first episode of 90 Day Fiancé!

    Sunday nights are officially back to being my favorite night of the week — thank you, TLC! 🙌 I swear, they deserve a medal for still managing to find couples for us to obsess over during a pandemic. My little ritual has become sacred at this point: dinner, a glass of wine, and the glorious chaos that is 90 Day Fiancé.

    So let’s dive right into my first impressions of this new season’s cast of lovebirds (and trainwrecks 😂).


    💔 Jovi & Yara

    Oof. My first impression of Jovi? Not great, y’all. He gives off major immature vibes and seems completely unprepared for a serious relationship. When he started bragging about his “free spirit” lifestyle and stripper escapades, I couldn’t roll my eyes hard enough. 🙄

    And then — the airport pickup. Imagine flying 30 hours to see your man, and he gets mad because you don’t want to go sightseeing immediately? Boy, please. Common sense, where you at? I’m rooting for Yara, but something tells me this one’s going to be rocky.

    🐄 Brandon & Julia

    Ohhh my gosh, where do I even start?! Brandon lives with his parents… on a farm… and brings Julia, a gogo dancer from the city, to live there too. This has all the makings of a beautiful disaster.

    From his mom setting him up on a dating site (yes, really) to his $10,000 credit card debt and his mom calling a gynecologist for Julia — I can’t! 😂 I totally get why his mom is concerned, but whew… this situation is already giving me secondhand stress. Buckle up, Julia.

    😒 Mike & Natalie

    Does Mike even like Natalie? I honestly can’t tell. He seems about as excited as a soggy piece of toast. The man only lights up when he’s cuddling his cat — which, honestly, same, but still.

    If there’s zero enthusiasm now, I’m not sure how this is going to work out long-term. Someone get this man a cup of coffee and a reason to smile!


    🔥 Rebecca & Zied

    Ah yes, Rebecca and Zied — back again for more chaos (and yes, I’m here for it). First off, Rebecca’s new job at Joella’s Hot Chicken has me curious — I’d 100% go through that drive-thru just to say, “Hey, aren’t you from 90 Day Fiancé?” 😂

    But oh boy, the drama’s already brewing. They’re staying with Rebecca’s daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend… and Zied is not thrilled about that. Something tells me this household’s about to turn into a full-on reality show within a reality show.


    💞 Tarik & Hazel

    We only got a small glimpse of Tarik and Hazel this episode, but color me intrigued. Hazel’s bisexual and looking for a girlfriend — yes, you read that right — while being engaged to Tarik. I can already tell this season is going to bring some big conversations (and probably some major drama).


    🍿 Final Thoughts

    Y’all, I am so ready for this season. Between farm drama, cultural clashes, awkward family moments, and questionable decision-making — this is peak 90 Day Fiancé content.

    It’s my favorite Sunday night ritual: dinner, wine, and pure TLC chaos. 🥂 I’d love to know what you think of the new cast! Who’s your favorite so far? Who’s driving you nuts already? Let’s chat in the comments — I need to know I’m not the only one yelling at my TV! 😂



  • Game of Thrones Finale Thoughts: Sansa, the Hound, and Missed Opportunities

    Game of Thrones Finale Thoughts: Sansa, the Hound, and Missed Opportunities

    I still can’t believe Game of Thrones is over. Honestly, I’m still trying to wrap my head around that last episode… actually, the whole final season! But there’s one moment that really stuck with me — the conversation between Sansa and the Hound.

    “I heard you were broken in. Broken in rough.”

    “Without Littlefinger and Ramsay and the rest, I would have stayed a little bird all my life.”

    When I first heard that, I thought, okay, I get it — she’s saying her trauma made her stronger. And in a way, I do believe that people can grow through painful experiences. But the more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable it felt. It almost sounded like the show was saying Sansa’s abuse was the reason she became powerful — and that just doesn’t sit right with me.

    And what was the Hound getting at anyway? Was he saying he could’ve saved her? Or that she should’ve listened to him back in King’s Landing? I couldn’t tell if Sansa was brushing him off, being genuine, or just done with the conversation. It’s weird because there were so many other things that shaped who she became — watching her dad die, losing her family, surviving manipulation after manipulation. Why did the writers make this the defining piece?

    It’s not the first time the show’s handled these kinds of storylines in a questionable way. Remember Dany and Khal Drogo? The way that whole relationship was framed still makes me cringe. I’ve heard it’s written differently in the books, so it really makes me wonder why the show chose to go that route.

    Honestly, this whole season felt rushed — like they were checking boxes instead of letting the characters breathe. I wish the Sansa and Hound moment had been explored more, because it could’ve been such a meaningful scene. Instead, it just left me confused and a little disappointed.

  • Game of Thrones Season 8 Finale: My Totally Chaotic Thoughts

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Finale: My Totally Chaotic Thoughts

    Welcome back to my messy brain dump about the Game of Thrones finale — because wow, what a ride. I can’t believe it’s actually over. Let’s relive the chaos together:

    1 Grey Worm… really? You’re doing way too much right now.

    2 Jon Snow — looking fine as always, but also, babe, what are you doing?

    3 Tyrion out here telling it like it is. Yes, king, speak your truth!

    4 Daenerys… girl, what happened to you? Chill. Please.

    5 I mean, yeah, she has to go — but does it have to be Jon?

    6 WAIT. He did it?! Oh no. Oh yes? Oh no again.

    7 That’s it? That’s how she goes out? I feel robbed.

    8 Drogon crying over her body — okay, that broke me. 😭

    9. What?

    10. Sansa! Yes, tell that man to sit down. HAHA.

    11. Aww, Sam.

    12. Okay, Bran.

    13. What?

    14. Uhhhh.

    15. Oh, so now you’re finally gonna pet him?

    16. What?

    17. Okay, Arya.

    18. What?

    19. Sansa, yes! Queen!!

    Ayye!
    Her tiara is perfect!

    20. What?

    21. What?

    22. Seriously!?



    After that, I had to restart the episode just to make sure I hadn’t blacked out and missed something. Like, Tyrion gets off easy, but Jon goes back to the Night’s Watch? Make it make sense.

    At least Sansa ended up where she belongs — in charge and looking stunning with that tiara. Queen behavior only. 👑

    The finale wasn’t perfect, but it wasn’t a total disaster either. I’m just glad we survived it together. Our watch has ended… now bring on the spinoffs!

    I want it, I got it

  • Game of Thrones: My Completely Unfiltered Reactions Ep 4

    Game of Thrones: My Completely Unfiltered Reactions Ep 4

    Welcome back to my disorganized thoughts while watching Game of Thrones! I’ve been waiting for this episode all week — especially with Emilia Clarke hyping it up. Obviously, I pulled out the biggest TV I could find (okay fine, it was my projector), because this deserved a cinematic moment.

    Alright, let’s get into my real-time chaos:

    1 NO. I said, RING THE BELLS!

    2 Dany, babe… you’re spiraling. Did you have to kill Varys? Actually… maybe. That food scene was weird.

    3 YES. Battle time! Go off, Grey Worm!

    4 Wait—just ring the bells, everyone.

    5 YES! (for now?)

    6 Oh… oh no.

    7 GREY WORM, STOP!

    Look at him all shocked -_-


    8 Jon, please, I need you to get it together.

    9 Dany! Girl! Just go for the castle and chill. You’re doing too much.


    10 Jon, handle these people. Please.

    11 Arya 😭 — and the Hound?! What a moment. Also, wait… who else has green eyes??

    12 Cersei, run girl, RUN.

    13 ARYA?! Not like this! Not after all that! (Meanwhile, I’m nervously opening and closing my peanut can like it’s a stress ball.)

    14 Arya, honey, breathe.

    15 Jon, just leave.

    16 She really killed that mom and daughter… wow.

    17 WHAT?! She got burned by the dragon?!

    18 Oh wait, never mind. False alarm.

    19 And Cersei… that’s it? That’s the death we get? Too soft. I’m mad.


    By the end, I was just sitting there like… okay, HBO, I feel the difference between your writing and the books. Dany has officially gone full villain, and someone’s gotta stop her.

    Also — WHO has the green eyes?! I’m losing sleep over this. 😅

    This episode gave me straight-up anxiety. I kept opening and closing my peanut can the whole time like it was gonna fix something. I’ve always said I’d be a Stark, and honestly, tonight just confirmed it. ❄️

    Can’t wait for the finale (and the documentary!) — but until then, tell me in the comments: what house are you?
