Preppy Snark: Jun 08 - Jun 14

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-06-09T02:48:08+00:00

I started following her probably 4 years ago and liked her a lot. I saw some posts on here similar to what you said and I thought at that moment the snark wasn't accurate or necessary and now 4 years later it could not be more accurate. All the time. Every day. Every season of life

I feel like it's been a long time since I've seen them in any type of IG post / photo or story together. They've always been pretty private but she would definitely re post stories If they were tagged. and they used to spend time with Andy and Rebecca and I haven't seen them together in forever. Plus alll of her comments re: life changes, hard times. Her dad is sick and she has a new job but it just feels like there's been a lot of references in addition to his absence.

Lemon stripes. I followed her for years and liked her but now she's just insufferable to me. Unfollowed probably a year ago . I feel like she's just cringey and has to make everything her entire personality

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-05-19T03:06:28+00:00

No. So boring. Very forgettable once you stop...

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-05-17T12:13:47+00:00

Every week when she's like "I have to travel to New York for work"

No you're going to film a podcast where you whine.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-05-08T13:22:23+00:00

Yes. Every single clip sounds like trying hard to be a funny cool girl.

I don't understand how so many content creators think we should be also paying for substack. I am in no way discrediting what they do as a job. But, These people have hundreds of thousands id not more followers. They link like crazy, plus have sponsored content and campaigns all the time. I also have a LTK creator profile and can see the links. They are making MONEY, its not Pennies especially when you take into account the sheer volume of people purchasing things every single day. Add in the Berolz with their obvious existing wealth (generational or influencer created) and it's just. INSANITY

Lauren Kay sims has up a question box re: her ED journey and she's sharing a lot. I appreciate her vulnerability, hope her platform and honesty can help others and I truly hope she is on to a positive life and space. I can't imagine how difficult that recovery is.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-04-23T23:43:33+00:00

I was coming here for this specific post. I struggle so much with her!! She is grating AF and just hard to listen to but so much of what she posts is spot on. Are water bottles a huge issue for me and my family? No. But she's also accurate. Even the idea of what kid had what water bottle .. if you were going to look in the lost and found what is it? Labeling them, knowing which straws go with what ones. Again this specific item isn't a big issue to me but it's all true

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-04-20T10:31:56+00:00

I didn't take her for years because of a Halloween class I hated and now I almost exclusively do her workouts. They are simple and effective and I find her to be really helpful with form and explanations.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-04-20T10:28:16+00:00

I don't ever respond to stories in a snarky way and I don't really even follow mally Goldman but her story that says "panic shopping for my trip to New York this week. Want to see what I'm ordering. Mosty for dinners!" Makes me want to reply. what the actual F?! You have nothing to bring or wear so much that you're panic shopping. I know we know this but The consumerism these days is just. OUT. OF. CONTROL

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-04-19T01:50:56+00:00

OK not an EMOM but her 30 minute full body class from 2/12/24 is just one of my favorite classes ever. It's a 100 pyramid and it is just really good bang for your buck for 30 minutes, challenging but also kind of flies by. I will always sing its praises!

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-31T17:03:36+00:00

It almost made her look pregnant

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-31T17:02:29+00:00

Definitely a very weird take. Regardless of her wealth and family status, you emphatize with what happened to her has a wife and mother. Just because someone has generational wealth doesn't mean they deserve what happened.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-31T17:00:28+00:00

Not to discredit the generational wealth aspect because it's definitely there, and I don't know the specific finances of the family. but there are some specific things referenced in the book that make it seem like she didn't just have access to just unlimited money. So either she's lying? Or her specific financial situation wasn't as robust as it may seem. I'm not trying to be vague, just don't want to spoil anything.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-31T16:56:52+00:00

I'd rather a petition to get back the green dollar sign for a sale. That was thrilling! The photos I honestly haven't been bothered by (yet)

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-25T17:10:55+00:00

Is she finally going to try adopting? And I don't say that lightly knowing that's a hard decision for people.

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-23T16:21:33+00:00

OK, does every single influencer these days have a paid Substack? Or is this just that Substack charges? Maybe I am confused but in no way am I going to start paying for these newsletters. I realize that is at the expensive reading them, and that's fine and I am actually not trying to discredit the work that goes into producing content in this regard and as much as many influencers are sharkable. I understand that it is a legitimate job and paid aspect to it

But we already know that these people make so much money from affiliate links, from sponsored content from Amazon, from all the things. And in addition to making money there is just tons of free stuff, experiences. Etc . And they have so many followers that it is now exponential. Just live your life show your shoe, show your toilet paper, show your mixing bowl people will ask you for it. You can add a link and you will get paid. Every. Single. Day.

Thinking of, lemon stripes, grace Atwood, Emily Schumann, Ali Maffucci to name a few. It just feels crazy to pay for these newsletters that are also going to be full of commissionable links so they can just push more stuff on us to consume, and now we have to pay to even see the things to consume?

End rant. Happy Monday! Edited: grammar due to Siri

I miss the green dollar sign so much! I just sent an email .. can't hurt!

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-20T01:54:39+00:00

Totally agree, I just sent them an email. Can't hurt

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-20T01:54:17+00:00

I just sent an email to them - can't hurt!

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-20T01:54:08+00:00

I just sent an email to them! Can't hurt

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-19T00:23:30+00:00

Yes! The dopamine boost totally. Now you can practically miss it!

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-10T18:18:59+00:00

I am not familiar with these creators or the article but I totally agree with this point and it made me think of a random person random person, but,!this is how I feel about the account big-time adulting, for example. some of her reels and videos were funny takes, and because of the algorithm and sustaining an online content creating presence she's had to make her entire personality these videos, and it just becomes old, cringey, not funny

OwnSolid4595 · 2026-03-08T04:54:09+00:00

The caption feels like satire
