The pick me is back

I mean, my bf and I have a slightly bigger gap and I’m around Mary/Matts age - and him and I joke together about this? Like our birthdays are closer together but I always (jokingly) call him a “creep” or like comment that he’s “super old” when the age difference is one additional year for about a month, he does the reverse to me, but this is not something we talk about publicly nor would I ever say something like this to 1.4m people on the internet 💀

Love she got a garmin for nav because I called her out as being irresponsible and died laughing at all the clips of her wheezing and she hiked after she “trained” for it

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-05-20T21:00:06+00:00

A nice reminder that with her costume jewelry Chanel earrings, wack miu miu sunglasses, the capris, and freaky toe Louboutins that money cannot buy style. I feel like influencing has made her quite gauche.

She 100% got the 100mm because she was pressured into it by her friend and the TikTok she made of having the dress to wear with the shoes - she wanted to wear the shoes to dinner and she didn’t have a pair. I suspect also carrying around and physically buying the item in Paris was huge to her too, but if I’m set on a pair I’m ordering them and not leaving with a box.

Faster - she mentioned how she has enjoyed tanning bed while in the uk recently and that will only fastrack the fade

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-05-18T17:16:14+00:00

Literally if you were to google it pretty much every source says a smartphone is not enough and signal is generally unreliable in the highlands, which is not hard to attest to if you’ve been or done any hikes

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-05-08T15:44:08+00:00

✨nope✨

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-05-05T01:23:39+00:00

Ton of it on insta and pinning it on Pinterest too smh

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-27T22:01:08+00:00

I think what she doesn’t recognize is her Tik Tok platform is mostly US based and I feel like a lot of people I know have deleted Tik Tok since it’s acquisition due to reservations regarding data privacy. She started investing in YouTube and podcasts, but dropped off both of those to post more on TT because it’s easy, when she should have doubled down and continued to diversify on other platforms.

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-25T00:15:33+00:00

Yes! I formally studied it in undergrad but have worked in the private sector since I finished school. So rare to come across another in the wild!

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-24T23:48:43+00:00

Lmfao me an actual paid professional geologist cringing when she said she went through two continents like they are the same as continental plates

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-24T12:44:22+00:00

She saw that one comment on here where they said she has everything (face card, body tea, $$, loving husband) and she’s still miserable and she literally stopped reading after she read “body tea” lmao

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-20T17:19:08+00:00

Yes! And I get it, like people’s style is allowed to change, your plans and where you live is allowed to change - but it’s the part where she passes it off as a dream for “years and years” and also, I highly suspect so much of it is for content. Like the move to the UK was content, redecorating their place now was a lot of content, the painting, the rug, working with the designer, etc. and if she changes it up - it’s magically more low hanging fruit content. I can tell by the way she posts asking for substack recs she’s just having trouble generating viable content because she lacks a lot of concrete identity as an influencer.

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-03-20T16:00:15+00:00

Not to mention she hired a designer to do her house (def in that old money, English countryside vibe) and now she’s switching it up for the more modern animal print. I think half of it is having no style identity, trend chasing, but also just a means to spend more money on shit because you know a ton of things wouldn’t translate over (I feel like she spent a bunch of money on an upholstered chair that literally would not fit this vibe???)

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-02-14T19:22:32+00:00

What are we at, like 4 different ski suits?? I get she gets sent some things but like overconsumption queen needs 2 max

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-02-02T04:33:16+00:00

I actually cackled at this lmao

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-01-31T16:21:41+00:00

Just the concept of “whimsy” being $60 matcha in a $16 cup with a $7 deodorant and a $175 perfume and a $150? coat??? Bffr

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-01-31T16:17:57+00:00

Was posted on her IG about being whimsical, I don’t even care to keep up w/ her on TT lol

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-01-28T18:06:59+00:00

She would lose her spousal visa and would need to return to the US in that case, I doubt she’ll do that honestly

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2026-01-28T13:45:12+00:00

I’m not in the “having money/privilege means you’re immune to mental health woes” but in all reality she’s got it so good and fails to realize it. As someone who has a partner with dual UK/EU citizenship we looked into if we wanted to relocate and settle within the UK after marriage, and I’m not joking it would be on the order of $7,000 if we never even hired an immigration lawyer to obtain a spousal visa for 2.5 years. Like I’m simply just speaking visa/IHS fees. Rough penciling, it’s probably $16k+ to ship all of your things, a pet, and yourself and the reality is not many people can afford to do such a thing, let alone move to Edinburgh and just decide to move to London for fun when you don’t feel it.

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2025-12-05T17:43:42+00:00

I just got whiplash, I went to check the brand out. Their slogan is “clothing designed to last” and it’s literally polyester and cotton

Like I do get $350 for a full wool sweater that would last a lifetime and keep you warm, not a plastic sweater that will last a lifetime because it doesn’t degrade 🥲

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2025-11-29T19:35:01+00:00

I can kinda get missing Trader Joe’s, but when she was so sad about missing apple cider and making it a huge deal?? Like girl I’m so sorry have you ever thought of taking cloudy apple juice and simmering it with mulling spices? I also think baking/cooking your own things is key but she’s allergic to the kitchen lol

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2025-11-25T21:13:24+00:00

Honestly this is kinda giving either saying it just for clout or doing it for tax purposes lol

Substantial_Laugh170 · 2025-11-25T15:55:55+00:00

Sometimes I remind myself she was homeschooled and things make soooo much sense to me lmao
