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!

Sarah’s oldest daughter is talking to her. I shouldn’t be able to recognize their voices but, thanks to their loving mother, I can. She’s the one who doesn’t want to be on SM so her parent records the conversation without her knowing and posts it for all her followers so they know her kids talk to her.

Imagine filming your daughter behind her back like this, she’s sick. And the fact the camera had to be on her poreless, texture free face the whole time 🙄

What a lucky gal to have such a smooth face with no filters 🙄

Omg I just saw her story at Value Village where L was trying to talk to her and she literally SHUSHED her, kept talking and ignoring L. You could tell she was so annoyed. She's a vile B. I'm surprised she let the mask slip though. Why not stop the video, acknowledge the child and start the video over if it was that deep?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (4 children)

She was about to blow up from excitement over her newest find. Amazing how she can consistently find shit worth sooo much money thrifting.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Always shopping.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s so annoying and I bet her sister is pissed!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Birdie seems to be cutting her sisters grass. Can Sarah let someone else shine for a minute. On the flip side, my cousin is like a sister to me, she has a more prominent career than I do. She never talks about her career at family gatherings. She engages others and asks about their passions. When I started working in fashion marketing, she let me shine. I can't imagine being Sarah's sister. Her sisters online thrift store is cool. She must work hard at it, plus having a job and juggling a family. Sarah never promotes her sister. She posts her own finds making thrifting look easy. Her sister thrifts and curates, there is a big difference. Sarah is a self centred fool.

I don’t understand why she wouldn’t buy the plates for her sister to sell. She just can’t do that. She has to get on SM immediately to brag about her fantastic find instead of supporting her sister’s business. Your cousin sounds like a wonderful person who knows how families should work.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Sarah at family dinners would be a nightmare.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Sarah at anything would be a nightmare!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I can promise you, her whole family and extended family are a bunch of insufferable delusional quacks. Absolutely hereditary

The call is coming from inside the house..........

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Woah, what if this in reference to?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Some sort of beef she had with a “friend” you can see how she is definitely not the problem it’s all the friends doing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The apple didn't fall far, did it? 🤣

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Lol was just about to write the same thing 😂

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Id love to hear more lol

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Because Birdshit only cares about Birdshit. She missed her daughter's swimming for her fake hair... I just can't.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

The purse she found was only worth what she paid. You can always find examples of items at crazy high prices, they don't sell.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I just went and watched and thought - maybe if she actually had talked to L the way she talks to her phone as she was growing up she would be able to carry on a conversation. She, instead, chose to talk to her like she’s a pet.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's definitely not standard for her age, the way L communicates, is it? I don't know if I've ever seen her initiate a conversation and engage in one? I've seen a lot of repetition, mainly of praise words. I feel bad for the kid, her mother is a self-involved jackass.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Nope. Hope Birdie doesn’t put her in FI. She will struggle. She needs to focus on one language.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

Without joking, I actually speak to my dogs in a more respectful and non-cartoony way than she speaks to her toddler.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I agree and the video where she was trying to force her to review her nails, it was so awkward because L wasn’t having it. Like no conversation whatsoever, just Sarah forcing her to say something.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe she’ll collab on some fake nails for 3-5 year olds. Never too young to start on the “self care” 🙄

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Oh god she prob will

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

I’ve had a lot of little ones in my life and L is 3.5 years old. If she had been born a few weeks earlier she would be starting school in September and, I’m afraid, she would be lost but maybe, if the class isn’t too big, her teacher will recognize she’s different than the other kids. Since she’s a January birthday it’s going to be another full year before she’s at school.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

She’s been doing that for a loooooong time since her first marriage. https://i.imgur.com/LNnnjjZ.mp4

shhhh.. mommy is on her stage!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

The poor child in the background didn’t sound too excited about their noodle dinner…it was probably the 3rd night in a row. Mom’s specialty/favorite, butter noodles.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Oh! I heard the word EACH and it was timed with the subtitles. Isn't it what happened?

Anyway, curious about her sister's vintage business, I love vintage finds, Anyone the name of her store?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

This conversation was pointless and stupid to post and her over the top fake laughing was rage inducing. I’m running out of words to express how much can’t stand her.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

I am too! The invasion of the expectation privacy is so irresponsible. I’m surprised her kids even have conversations with her anymore. She’s despicable.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

This is her super demanding girl boss career. It's a fucken joke. She's only going down.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

she looks mean when she talks to her girls

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Peep the story of her shushing L at value village. I'm still appaled.

It's just so pathetic.
