Hilary Spivey seems really thirsty for attention/ absolutely thrilled her daughter bagged a Duggar.... like a classier Jill Rodrigues.

Agreed - she's probably thrilled that she not only got to take pictures of the Duggars, but that she also captured a Bates boy with a potential partner.

Yes, she knew that would cause speculation. She is Jill Rod who was just more successful at getting her child to court a Duggar. Jill Rod only managed to get a her daughter to marry a Duggar in law and is probably jealous of Hilary.

I think Hilary may  be the most interesting thing about this courtship. I’d love it if she started inserting herself in the all the photos and TV appearances. The Duggars don’t want another failed courtship so would have to suck it up.

Hilary hit us with more pics. I wonder if she’s sitting between Justin and Claire a la Michelle between Benessa. It’s kinda weird that they didn’t picture Claire though, but if would be weirder if Claire’s parents would be flying with Justin and not her.

It's kind of a shirtty thing for Mom Spivey to do, posting a picture of one of the Bates boys with a potential partner. I highly doubt she got the Bates' permission to post that.

Also, this picture of a Duggar, a bates, and what I think to be her own daughter with their tongues out....
Girls being girls. But I just thought it was a weird photo to post...

She is JillRod levels of famewhoring but i love that she is posting the pictures because the Bateses never acknowledge on their social media their visits to Big Sandy, the conferences and the family camp, probably becaue they think it is not good for their public image. Also, is 13 years old Ellie wearing makeup?

Kelly has posted a few things about makeup for younger teens since Josie started working as a cosmetologist. The youngest Bates girls even went to a makeup-themed birthday party their friend held (Josie's business partner Grace's sister Gigi.)

That's true!
In one of the pictures in this post, she's also got kelly in the background!

This video is so random and almost feels like an engagement announcement, though obviously I hope not.

I agree I can sense an engagement video coming out very soon. Maybe after another one telling some other stories like how they met or so.

These two depress me.

They are giggly teenagers; they shouldn't be planning a wedding and thinking about their inevitably imminent kids. Shame on their parents for encouraging this and for putting them in such a public spotlight for all the world to see.

They should be going to homecoming right now. They should be applying for colleges. They should be involved in extracirricular activities. They should be dating without thinking of marriage for YEARS. Their lives make me so sad.

Someone called them Claritin a while ago, and that's my favorite.

Engagement announcement at Thanksgiving, followed by a wedding before her birthday.  Maybe even before the end of the year.

My fellow neuroscience PhD friend is actually doing her thesis work on "face blindness," provocatively called "they all look the same to me." It seems that yes, people are quantitatively much worse at distinguishing faces of different races vs their own. I'll have to catch up with her to see if they learned more as to why. 

I think a lot of this develops in childhood (& probably infancy). I went to a high school with a very high proportion of students from Asian backgrounds and am generally much better at distinguishing Korean/Chinese/Malaysian faces than black faces, for example. It was also an all-girls school and god help me if I’m watching a tv show with two white guys in their 20s and 30s with short brown hair. Even if the actors are famous, I will constantly get their characters confused.

Re: actual face blindness, there’s a YA novel by Jennifer Niven called Holding Up the Universe where one of the main characters has face blindness. I found it really interesting the way he memorises features to help him recognise his own family.

I also think there's going to be an engagement announcement around Thanksgiving, and the wedding probably sometime next year, probably in the summer.

That would be a very long engagement for a Duggar.

True, but they are both very young and they may wait until filming resumes because otherwise they’d have to pay for their own wedding and honeymoon and Duggars like getting free stuff.

Exactly. If I didn't know both of them came from fundie backgrounds, I'd just think they were two teens dating. They'd make a cute (normal) couple. The problem isn't that Justin and Claire are interested in the opposite sex. It is pretty normal development at that age to be in a first relationship. It is just nonsensical that they have to decide their whole future at 17-18 years old!

When’s his 18th birthday? My guess is if they don’t get engaged around his birthday or thanksgiving they will sometime around Christmas. I’d be surprised if they waited until next year to get engaged.

      I love baseball but I'm dreading the new season because the White Sox ownership is THE FUCKING WORST. I watched Dominican League Baseball (Lidom!) over the winter and fell in love with their joy, spirit, and exuberance. The broadcasts were in Spanish and my Spanish is pretty weak but I loved catching phrases and repeating them. Bombe! I'm sad about MLB and Commissioner Idiota's busywork rules. But I love baseball, always and forever.
      I guess I don't have a point. Just bitching. Te amo mucho, Lidom!

      Happy International Women's Day!

      Humanity may have some work to do, to improve gender equality, but I was glad to hear that France has taken an important step to protect healthcare for women (and people of other genders who can get pregnant). 
      (The links are just to a UN page and the AP News.)
      Anyhow, love to y'all!

      Feeling ragey this morning. I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon in the hope of getting help for an ongoing injury. I went to a (different!!) doctor late last year who completely blew me off. He wouldn't do diagnostic testin, he refused to send me to a specialist, and he just told me to "take it easy" and "take ibuprofen." I'm hopeful for today's appointment but I'm also feeling a SEVERE amount of rage at that doctor from last year!

      Well, the rash is back with a vengeance. It never completely cleared up. I saw the derm yesterday and they did another swab and yup, raging infection again, still? It is definitely strep skin infection. I am getting so damn tired and run down from this. Who the f would immagine being hospitalized freaking TWICE for a rash?

      My niece is going to be a seat filler at this year's Academy Awards.  Seat fillers are asked to wear tuxedos regardless of sex/gender.  If you see a pretty young woman with very curly hair, it could be my niece.

      It’s not supposed to be mosquito season right now but I still appear to have been bitten twice on the side of my foot. Bastards. I know I shouldn’t scratch but it’s so tempting… 😑
