Hello new Lemmy friends!

Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.

The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.

Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.

We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!

Set up a camera and then pretend you’re not your daughter’s mother but her playmate. I wonder what happens when she stops recording? It’s time for a nap. L has to be quiet so Birdie can scroll her phone and talk to her followers about how grateful she is for this time? This woman is, once again, making other moms feel they aren’t doing enough for their kid since they can’t take them on individual trips. I want moms to know the best 1:1 times come throughout the day - time in the car, a conversation while they are having a snack, getting them to help fold some laundry and you can have a chat. The best moments aren’t manufactured but come when you pay attention to your child every day and it isn’t some big event!

This little girl is gonna be so confused when they get home and her mom goes back to ignoring her while she ghosts around the living room in the background of mom's instagram posts. With her friends dust bunny, dog hair, and invisible cat, of course. 🫤

[–] crownofgold6 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s so weird. Like you’re being a mom to this girl once in 4 years? Wow good for you! She keeps going on about never spending 1:1 time with her and it just makes her look bad tbh. She does nothing of significance with her days to not spend more 1:1 time with Lemon, lemon doesn’t even go to school so she’s legit available for 1:1 time all the time!!! She has literally every opportunity to do so but she’d rather spend 5 hours at a hair salon tending to her hideous hair, or go to lunch with anyone but her kid, or go to Toronto for the night, or sit on the sofa and stare at herself in her phone for hours etc. Yet I’m sure her loyal followers are in her DM’s telling her how amazing she is for doing this yet it’s her own damn fault she never spends time with her kid.

[–] Glowpop 11 points 1 day ago

Exactly this. She continues to shine the spotlight on the 1:1 time, when there are a thousand and one reasons why it could and should have been happening way more often and it for some reason didn't, and just puts that on display. So daft. But like you said, her idiot followers are probably sobbing over it and SO inspired

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Imagine setting up the camera to start jumping on the bed with your kid lmfao!!! Why is she pushing the narrative so hard of spending time with her child. That's what moms do. She's repulsive in every way. Not to mention the filters used during this video...even the walls are crooked..

[–] Poofluencers 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Maybe it’s because we’ve spent weeks, no months, talking about how all she does is sit on her ass after her busy days of hair appointments and taking photos in bikinis while her kid plays alone. She didn’t read it and take it to heart she’s worried her followers might of noticed too so she’s doing damage control. Sarah loves herself and praise.

Sure seems like she’s drying up! 🤞🏻

[–] No_really_why 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But she’s acting like this is somehow her first opportunity in FOUR YEARS to have 1:1 time, yet she has no actual job. What a slap in the face to working parents that would love to be able to spend every day with their kids.

[–] MoonChild 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Her life is just one performance after another and this week she was playing the role of mother with a callback to her role as SI swim suit model. To join the two she added a little story about how she was on the phone telling her daughter she had made the cheer team right before she walked down the runway. To add colour to the story and make her extra special she recounted how her good friend, the famous model, was astounded how she juggles it all! 🤮

Hunter pays zero attention to Birdie. Just for the gram lol

This kid is going to grow up and as an adult need constant vacations, consumption and attention in order to be happy.
