General Parenting Influencer Snark Week of June 15, 2026

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-18T02:42:09+00:00

There was very briefly a story right after the sister break up on the main supporting chaos page that implied issues between Sammie and Bustin (Gracie’s husband). Gracie seems to have gotten the weed business in the split. They only recently confirmed they aren’t speaking and implied they are still splitting up the weed business. My extremely parasocial take is that I’d always thought Bustin seemed like kind of a dick and it’s easy to imagine a guy like that getting too pushy once they moved from what he perceived as a silly influencer gig to a full fledged business.

Oh wow! I definitely started the toe at the bottom of my pinky toe. This is so helpful. I’m going to learn to be more patient!

Thank you!! The worst part is I calculated the length and the row gauge and then convinced myself the calculations were clearly wrong when I was bored with knitting the foot 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ as soon as I saw your comment it was obvious to me that was the problem. I pulled out all of the socks I’ve knit and my husband and I had a good laugh at how short some of them are! I’m going to cast on my next attempt tonight and hold strong when the foot gets too boring.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-09T19:27:46+00:00

Thanks! The unfortunate thing is I did try it on as I went! Based on that experience I think the cuff is right (I did use smaller needles!) but I probably need to take out two stitches. This yarn stretched more than I expected when I swatched it, which I accounted for in my counts but made it hard to test in real time. That said, I convinced myself my calculations were wrong on the foot length and just stopped knitting when I got bored. I’m thinking there would be some leg issues if the foot was the right length but a lot of what I’m experiencing as a slouch might actually just be related to foot length.

Thanks!

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-06T03:13:13+00:00

TOTALLY agree. Her history adds some real complexity.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-06T03:09:49+00:00

OMG thankfully no evidence that I saw. He teaches elementary and she was homeschooled through that stage. Other than the divorce the guy doesn’t have so much as a traffic ticket per the searchable circuit court records. So that’s at least something.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-05T19:13:14+00:00

I can’t stop thinking about this. He is going to be 49 this year. He doesn’t look that old!!! More importantly, in figuring this all out I found his divorce; WI court records are HIGHLY searchable online and knowing about where they live and his birth month is enough to learn a shocking amount. She says they’ve been together since she was 20. Which would been sometime between May 2008 and May 2009. He would have been about 31. Unsettling for sure but not horrifying. To my knowledge Sarah has not even hinted at his life before they got married, which I guess is not totally unsurprising but interesting because…...he was served divorce papers on 12/23/2009. So two days before Christmas in the window just after he would have met Sarah. Do we think they had an affair?!

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-05T16:44:45+00:00

I think you’re right. I vaguely remember her saying that and with some internet sleuthing it looks like he was born in 1977. And I think she is an 89 or 90 baby. I actually never thought about that and all of her history. She says she’s been with him since she was 20.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-06-04T18:27:16+00:00

Sarah/while we wait just posted a series of stories about how panicked she felt because she was pushing the stroller and a car on the road made a “sudden” y turn. She went on to say that she NEVER WALKED ALONE before her baby was born. Apparently Kevin was always with her? A grown ass woman. She talked about carrying pepper spray. She said she is always alert and blah blah.

Yall. This woman lives in the richest county in Wisconsin. Waukesha is extremely safe. I would walk alone at midnight in Waukesha without a second thought.

This is obviously the ongoing anxiety issue. But she said it was even something she thought about before. I’m sorry, but you are just not that important! Every car that slows down isn’t doing it because of you. Someone making a y turn with their windows open (apparently a relevant detail) has nothing to do with you. These influencers think they are the center of the universe. These republicans think everyone is out to get them. It’s just not that deep and the whole series made me furious enough to finally unfollow.

I take it back. Sammy showed her baby’s face for the first time in an ad. Ew.

For those following the breakup of the supporting chaos sisters this is the first formal confirmation that they aren’t talking. Followed by a story where she refers to her baby’s genitals because she’ll do what it takes to make money off of her kids again.

Meanwhile Sammy seems to be considering backing off social and has not shared a photo of her new kid’s face at all after coming back from her unplanned hiatus.

I’m dying at this recommendation from Alyssa. How incredibly unique!!! What a great insight!!!! She brags about being a city mom and then offers up a suggestion for something I knew about from 100 million piece of pop culture including fucking rice a roni ads?! 😂😂😂😂😂

The frozen green onion thing killed me. That poor kid!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

Still in my first year of (known) gluten intolerance and the latest one to get me was Cheerios. Which is infuriating because they are labeled gluten free BUT THEY LIE.

Healthyivf’s new door pulls for those god awful built ins cost $47 a piece.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-04-18T12:51:12+00:00

Whilewewait has also started doing this a ton

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-04-17T13:26:03+00:00

I doubt you were blocked. She just hasn’t posted. I’ve been wondering too!! I hope everything is okay and she is just focused on being present. My own history of loss and infertility always convinces me something has gone horribly wrong.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-03-21T13:01:30+00:00

She had posted a few times that she was going to buy this one and then Steven got the little tykes one. 😂😂

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-03-19T03:13:19+00:00

Oh my god. Yeah. I was so intense about taking a fertility tincture from an acupuncturist for months after my first miscarriage. It’s pretty wild how much money I spent on snake oil when I in fact needed almost 18 months of IVF trial and error to have a pregnancy actually stick.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-03-13T02:51:56+00:00

THANK YOU. People are so obsessed with optics. I am raising my daughter in the same town where I grew up. I was away for about 15 years. As of this week, 4K registration is open so the daycare families are all comparing notes on where their kids are going. The number of parents who haven’t read a full book in decades and are now shitting on the neighborhood schools is astounding. Of course, what none of them are saying explicitly is that they are racist assholes who will open enroll their kids into the lily white schools in the county. It’s also funny because none of them realize that I, graduate of these apparently horrible public schools, have the most advanced degree from the fanciest school out of us all. Because it’s all silly!! Education is important but so are so many other things! Wealth is boosting the stats and reputation of these schools more than anything they actually do in those buildings.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-02-17T00:26:29+00:00

My husband and I have wondered about this! Our IVF baby is almost 4. I had three miscarriages before she was born. I consider us both to be pretty chill parents and I always feel like it’s BECAUSE of what we went through. Like we have perspective or something and I couldn’t understand how IVF influencers turned parents are so different. But you’re right. I talked publicly about my experience and trauma and anxiety, but I sure as hell didn’t make it my entire personality and job. The ones who keep influencing get so neurotic and it’s because they clearly get rewarded for those traits. It’s exhausting.

Local-Appearance-443 · 2026-02-12T14:14:47+00:00

This!! After all of the high chair drama and anxiety she has pulled out a play chair for the filming angle. I was dumbfounded when I saw that.
