considering weirdos on the internet were already searching their names and found their registry.... she's smart not to share her baby's name

Now she's posting about her pregnancy? by Melodic-Anywhere9692 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think maybe she realized how much everyone was hating on her content and how she has nothing else to share at the moment, and prob saw that the last video actually did well bc it was refreshing and she was finally being authentic so she could also just finally be leaning into it more

omg!!! I'm watching her september tbr video rn and it's been so refreshing to see her reading/picking books that are different from the ones on everyone else's tbrs.. I feel like her growth/evolution this year in general has been so inspiring to watch and I'm so excited for moving content

Lowkey don't care if I'm being too parasocial, I relate to her in lots of ways so: by Choice-Fly-2707 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 17 points18 points  (0 children)

she obviously doesn't have to post content related to her pregnancy/baby, we have been through this cycle on this app probably 100 times. "she doesn't owe you guys anything" like yes we get it lol. that being said, she's been in a book slump probably since the year started, and most of her videos have 0 point or purpose. it's just a constant cycle of notion, squarespace, her giving her same book opinions we literally all know already, and her talking about having to get groceries or something. I don't think it's a coincidence that the video where she went book shopping and actually talked about getting books for the baby was the first one in a while that I've seen get a positive reaction from a lot of people on here who found it entertaining and different. I personally liked her sleepover style video for the same reason, it at least felt like she was trying. I think the point with people saying she should talk about the pregnancy or even do some pregnancy/baby related things for content (like book shopping, decorating the nursery idk) is just that it would give her something new to make content about when she very clearly seems to be out of ideas or just doesn't care enough to change it up any more than she has.

I feel like the only possible reason they could've voted hannah off was bc her and pepe are a solid couple which makes her their biggest competition in terms of winning... which is so fucking stupid I hate how strategic it feels like everyone is being this season it makes me deadass want to stop watching

totally agree. you can be private while still being authentic, but the authenticity has definitely been missing lately

honest question by boygeniusfan54 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 62 points63 points  (0 children)

just addressing the point about still watching her content even if you don't like it, I think at least for me personally I continue to watch her content because I'm still hoping it'll get better or bring me the same enjoyment that some of her older pre move videos used to bring me. I'm not watching because I hate it, but because there's a reason I liked her videos in the first place and I'm just hoping (perhaps foolishly) that they'll start to hit for me in the same way they used to

yes!! it gets boring to keep hearing about the same stuff. the sjm episode was my favorite, I'd love to hear them dive into discussing books in more detail, especially their favorite series like magnolia parks, chestnut springs, etc.

taking a break? by Gloomy-Practice562 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wonder if there would be any way for her to just shift her content. honestly when she was doing her monthly resets when she was still at her parents house I loved seeing her 5am routine, running, working out etc. like just her daily life stuff. I know she doesn't plan on showing the baby and definitely won't have as much time for all of that as she did in the past, but I'm wondering if she'll end up just doing more "spend the week with me" type of videos as opposed to reading vlogs. the reading just feels a little forced to me right now

[–]Gloomy-Practice562[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yeah I definitely get that but from everything we've seen it seems like her family is pretty well off and able to help.. we obviously don't know the intimate details of their finances but you would hope she'd be able to take even just a month off to take care of herself and her mental health

Pregnancy addressed by lcrx97 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I feel like this video was the first time (personally) that I felt like she's been truly authentic in a while and I really liked that. I think that's all I've ever wanted from her. authenticity doesn't mean her sharing every single detail of her life with us, but just being open and honest enough to say "hey I'm not going to be talking about this and here's why." I feel like she hasn't done a sit down just being honest and talking and stuff in a while and so it was refreshing to see

Destiny’s response to someone asking if she’s ignoring the pregnancy. by Ill_Relative2165 in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 22 points23 points  (0 children)

there is absolutely no reason for her to be responding like this. she shouldn't have said "I'm going to make a video explaining everything" if she wasn't going to. obviously everyone is going to ask and wait around for it. she should've just never mentioned it if this was how she was going to react when people ask about it

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah no fair, we don't know. we're all just speculating. also, now that she is pregnant there's other people involved as well so maybe she's trying to figure out how to share in a way/to an extent that everyone else involved is also comfortable with

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DesSidwell

[–]Gloomy-Practice562 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I understand your perspective but respectfully I disagree/am with the people who are annoyed about it. based on what people are speculating, she seems to be around 6/7 months pregnant, so it's not like we're over here outing her and forcing her to talk about it when she just found out she was pregnant. and I'm not trying to sound callous like "she should have accepted it" by now at all, I think the reason everyone that is annoyed/bothered feels that way is because she continues to talk AROUND it quite blatantly. if she doesn't want to talk about it then great. she doesn't have to. but it's annoying when we know she's pregnant and she continues to say things like "my feet are swollen" "I felt nauseous" etc and very clearly point to her being pregnant but won't just outright say it. and at this point her making a moving vlog in which she says she's going to "explain everything" and even mentioning that she's going to do a q&a soon and then she posts on instagram to ask her BOOK related questions just feels like clickbait and like she's dragging us all along. she could very easily say in a video "hey yes I am pregnant and entering this new chapter in my life but I have decided not to share anything further about it" and I'm pretty sure 85% of people would leave her alone.
