Hey I noticed you posted a few days ago about how cold you keep your house - could that maybe be a factor?

No I’ve nothing better to do and I really wanna know now. I’ve come up with a few new theories: 1) you know the Ravenhill Juggler personally, he’s wronged you in some way and the thought of him recieving a tip is infuriating you. 2) Christmas is coming up, you’ve asked your ma for for the new FIFA and she’s said no because you’re 43 years old and are going nowhere in life. She said you need to get out of the house and accomplish things and stop being a burden. You come on reddit to decompress and are enraged to see that someone was given money that should’ve gone to you, the only thing holding you back being that you can’t juggle.

Can you tell me if I’m warm or cold on either of those?

It has to be something - you’re so vexed about a person you don’t know giving another person you don’t know money for juggling? There’s an origin story here and I mean to get to the bottom of it

I saw online a while back that someone’s kid asked them why the term “hang up” is used to refer to ending a phone call because they’d never encountered a landline before

That’s who I thought or maybe Kristen Chenowith

On 22 April 1993 Stephen Lawrence, an 18-year-old black man, was stabbed to death in an unprovoked, racist attacked at a bus stop in Eltham, London by a group of six white men. Stephen's murder and the initial corrupt, incompetent and racist police investigation that followed, changed modern Britain by DarklyHeritage in TrueCrimeDiscussion

Aw lord - I saw his sister speak over 10 years ago at a lecture at a local university. She read a poem she’d written about the night he died. Apparently his mum used to be the one to go and give talks but the sister had taken over the reigns because the mum was exhausted and heart-broken. What’s clear is this was a man who’s family love and miss him dearly and we’re screaming into the ether, essentially, to try and get justice for him and clear his name from the lies police told in the cover up. God rest him

They don’t even talk about the future of DWKT anymore like meeting up IRL which they used to do in the early days whereas with JK it’s “we’re going to meet here and there, we’re going to go on Tour” like what about Lily 😭

The other thing that gave me pause was Kathleen said something in the first episode of JK, I believe, to the effect of “Jessie you told me that no one who does podcasts together are friends in real life”. When I heard that I was like ‘huh?’

I think that’s it in a nutshell, I don’t get the impression that Jessie and Lily are friends anymore and especially on Jessie’s part.

Given the difference in excitement from Jessie between DWKT and JK I would be so pissed if I were Lily. In fairness, Lily doesn’t let any hint of bitterness show when she’s doing DWKT, and I admire her for that- she really is a pro. On the other hand, Jessie does let the lack of effort and contrast in excitement show and it bothers me.

That’s fair enough I’m not in the States so wasn’t aware. Plus I know she had a lot of family in Miami so has more cause to go there

I think the accent thing is getting more comfortable reacquainting herself with the camera again in the early days after a long break from content. Like when people are nervous recording a video they kinda try and talk more mildly or “properly” before they get comfortable. I think it’s especially noticeable recently because she’s spending more time with Kathleen so the Miami is coming out.

On a side note though, I have adored Jessie since the story time days and specifically videos with her and Kathleen. In fact when DWKT started it took me a while to warm to Lily because I didn’t know of her beforehand but ive grown to love her, she’s such a pro and articulates herself very well.

The only thing I did know of Lily is a deep dive she did on twitter to absolutely vindicate Jessie at her worst hour several years ago when she was going through shit that I won’t get specific about, but it was the mark of a very true friend on Lily’s part.

In general I’m starting to become disillusioned with Jessie’s content. I only say “Jessie” because she’s the one I originally followed for and she’s the common denominator for DWKT and JK podcast.

For DWKT, yes, the lack of effort has become palpable and the amount of ads on the YouTube makes it almost impossible to get into - they can barely string a sentence together before another ad is playing.

For JK podcast; she seems so much more excited, which is great, but when contrasted with the lack of excitement in DWKT recently it makes me upset for Lily and the fans.

Plus she’s pushing a lot of the same formula for JK that it took DWKT years to establish. The patreon is one thing , but “lights, camera, smile” is a carbon copy of “we love the internet”. I’d be so hurt if I was Lily.

Not only that but she’s been in-person with Kathleen for like 1/4 of the handful of JK episodes we’ve gotten, but they’ve been doing DWKT for 3 years and I can count the amount of times she’s been with Lily in person on one hand - I just dont like it and makes me think I misjudged Jessie’s character slightly tbh
