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!

All these influencers not posting because of the horrible fires in LA is interesting. They aren’t posting because they know sharing their content (it should be called emptiness) is garbage with something so heart breaking happening. But….its always been garbage, anyone that adds value into the world hasn’t gone dark for the past few days. Nurses are still showing up, teachers, fire fighters, public officials, construction workers, news outlets, cooks, clothing stores….this list could go on & on, you get it…we are still doing our jobs because they add something into our communities. Sarah - just empty, blank.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's about time she fades away! Have fun posting Disney birthday pics Birdshit. You fail!

[–] bunniculamonroe@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago

She's probably crying about how the fires ruined her birthday.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

👏👏👏👏 empty, blank and boring. She sent her kid to work in. her place.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 weeks ago

The “I can cook Chili” footage is pretty quick but I can barely see any beans and what looks like carrot and mushrooms??

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

Is this family ever not sitting on the sofa? I get having relaxing time (I love relaxing and sitting lol) but they don’t do much to require needing valuable time to relax lol. Like they never seem to go for walks, take L to do things or go do anything errands wise that isn’t the mall for no reason.

Their whole life seems to just be L twirling around the living room infront of the always on tv.

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Literally. There’s SO many things they can take this kid to do. They have the money and the time, they just won’t. Even things that don’t cost money. Take her sledding. Make a snowman. Community ice rink. Walk in the arboretum. Or since they have all the money: Funvilla. Art factory. Peekaboo. Tiny town. Bowling. Swimming. Butterfly conservatory. Zoo. Aquarium. Museum. They are literally the laziest people in the world.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Ice skating is a good one especially this time of year, legit never have seen them take her skating and I’m sure she’d enjoy it too but I get the sense she’d enjoy a lot of things and her parents shield her from it all. They’re the LAZIEST parents I’ve ever seen. I can’t even call out just Sarah, it’s Shane too. I get the sense Sarah is embarrassed in public but she’s brought it on herself by being a fraud online 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m going to be a first time parent in April and they’re showing me how NOT to be with my kid. I’m already looking forward to taking her for walks and to the library and to the park, etc.

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yep! When she’s not jet setting across the globe on free trips she’s sitting her lazy ass on the couch filming her poor sheltered daughter sing Disney songs. That poor poor kid man

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago

I feel so bad for her. And Shane seems okay with it too. Terrible parents.

[–] Kar@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

Interesting point about Sarah not liking being in public out and about in her community.

It’s not unusual for influencers to be very different people in public. I know some that are so quiet and reserved compared to their IG personas. The added layer here though is all of her filtering. In public people will see her as her actual self which doesn’t match her filtered self and the whole charade falls apart. Her entire sales pitch is body positivity and a groundswell of regular people calling that out because of crossing paths with her would end the gravy train.

People going to her speaking events,etc have drank the kool-aid, they’re safe for her to be around. Casual ‘Bird-watchers’, not so much.

I get such second-hand embarrassment seeing Shane always lounging and never doing anything. I guess I'm just used to the always-present 'get up and go' mentality the dads in my family have always had, but like, don't you have anything you need to do around the house, for your family, anything? I have never seen a father sit down on the couch/on his phone as much as I have this man

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

They really do live a life of leisure. My fiancé works long hours all week and could easily just sit his ass on the sofa all weekend bc he earned it but no he always finds a chore or two to do, goes for walks, we do errands, etc. These two seem to have NOTHING to do ever. He definitely doesn’t scream “man of the house” no matter how much she’d love to claim otherwise because he wears a battery daddy shirt 🙄

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago

Right! My husband can't sit down even though he busts his ass at 2 jobs, he still never stops doing things around the house or yard.

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (4 children)

Another day another freebie 🙄 “I really love what she stands for” ????? Which is what exactly…. Sitting her fucking lazy ass down on the couch every day she’s not jetting across the globe on free trips? Filtering and editing every picture of herself yet pumping out her platform of “love yourself”?? People, wake the fuck up. Stop gifting her shit!!!!!

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Any excuse to take a picture of herself.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Wow...riveting stuff Birdshit. Another peace sign selfie.....incredible thumbs up

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Car selfie, Bathroom in underwear, Videos from couch, Shared link from bedroom, Homesense, Simply wonderful, wash, rinse, repeat until the end of time. Two slices of boring white bread with very little in between.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The constant child content twirling around or using the stupid filters must be desperation.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

She's desperate for content...she's going down.

It barely showcases the earrings, too. Big lips and peace sign more important

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

I watched the Substance, and all I could think about was Birdie and her texture-free face and shape-shifting skull.

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

She’s got at least two syringes in that upper lip

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago

Lmao she wears the same earrings every single day and then a jewelry maker talks about her so she has to change them out. “I wore these yesterday!” 🙄

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

It shocks me how many people think her word salads mean something.

I haven’t followed TBP on Instagram for a while now but I have been unfortunately curious about her content since she returned home from Los Angeles. That video of L dancing in the window, in that same Frozen dress from yesterday’s video, makes me so sad for her. I hope it’s a video from yesterday? or she is back in that same dress singing the same songs. I know she’s happy, but I really hope they expand this little sweetie’s horizons!

[–] Lisamarie@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I agree, I hope S. will register her for Junior Kindergarten. I think L. would thrive in that environment and have a wonderful experience!

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I am willing to bet that she doesn’t enroll L in regular track school - she pulled that poor sweet sheltered child from daycare because she caught a cold. Literally. Birdshit was beside herself when L caught a cold during her first week at daycare so they pulled her out “it’s for the best” I remember her saying on her stories. That poor kid is so sheltered and secluded and all she knows is Nana K’s house, Disney and the mall.

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And again shows just how stupid she is. Kids are meant to get sick to build immunities up against those illnesses. So, when she does get sick, it’s going to be super bad, every single time. But let’s be real, it wasn’t because she got sick. It was because she got sick and it interfered with her life, having to take care of her.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago

If her kids sick...that dampers her very important schedule cuz she could get sick... Birdshit comes first.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

That was such an insane excuse for pulling her out because kids get sick ALLLLLLL the time. Is she gonna pull M out of university because they have a gastro illness running through UofG right now? Like, unfortunately sickness happens, it’s just life. L will NEVER adjust to life this way.

When she pulled her out of daycare for that, it was the first time I ever messaged her and that’s what led me to finding the original Reddit page. I called her out for having no problem taking L to Disney and the mall all the time where there’s germs but the second she gets sick at daycare it’s game over. She got pretty defensive saying “well she never gets sick at those places” like the snooty bitch she is.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago

When she’s home the screen is her caregiver - you rarely see her parents interacting with her

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago

Day three for L in that princess dress. I love after saying I hope they broaden her horizons she shows her with a guitar today, lol

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (5 children)

It always amazes me how calculated and predictable she is. Like I 100% knew she’d go quiet once she got back from LA because she’s just SO obvious. She thinks going quiet means she’s like reflecting and caring when really she’s just scared of backlash because of how foolish and selfish she is. Sharing a couple videos of L to soften your followers won’t make it better.

And now she’s gonna be posting from Disney all joyful because she’s in her happy place and it saves her after the trauma of being in LA and having to flee even though she didn’t need to go there at all. While people in LA are suffering and losing their homes, she got to fly back to a newly renovated house with another trip right on the horizon. She sucks and I hope she feels shame (even though she never seems to and nobody calls her on it either).

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think this trip to Disney...again....is really going to be her downfall. No one is cheering her on and excited to watch yet another trip to Disney with all her friends...eating dole whip. Seriously.

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I have also been seeing some people/celebs (not that she is one) postponing their shows, events, anything that will produce air travel essentially... imagine she so much as exercised that idea?

Definitely wearing it dirty because she’s lazy af. Also I was looking into this company The Peace Collective. They seem very shady. There was a lot of comments on IG last week from people wondering where their order was that they placed in November. They were deleting/hiding comments. Their products aren’t cheap and looking at the state of her sweater her it’s definitely overpriced crap.

What is with her always trying to get cats adopted? She’s always on some odd random crusade. Why doesn’t she actually go volunteer at the humane society and get her hands dirty instead of just walking around petsmart and making essentially an ad with her kid playing with the cats.

Like as a cat lover I want cats to have their forever home too, but it’s just such a weird random crusade for her when she doesn’t even seem to care about her own cat.

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

She said that every time she mentions a cat, they get adopted. So she thinks it's all her doing and she's magical. She's really delusional. I agree. I'm glad the cats are getting adopted, but I doubt it's all because of her.. surely, it can't be the tireless work of the volunteers and the organization.

Where is she going NYC for a bagel? LA ✌️ to see her gf?

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

It would have been such a better post if she took a picture post-snow face wash. Where is the fallout from a face FULL of snow, which will usually cause makeup to smear, leave wetness behind, maybe ruin your hair? She either fixed herself up completely beforehand or it wasn't even enough to cause any of that and she just needed a reason to post a picture of herself, lol. What a narcissistic twat

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Exactly. Any excuse to take a selfie of her narcissistic ass

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 weeks ago

She thinks shes so hot 🙄
