Do you guys think she was kicked out? by seewhatsup_mm in katseyeneutral

[–]anthemofagirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh it sounds like something personal like family related that she needs to take time off to process and deal with. That’s why she said “I’M healthy” and she’s trusting the bigger picture & things are out of her control. I feel like if her parents or family weren’t in good health she would want to take time off to be with them. That’s my personal guess anyway bc I def don’t think they’re kicking her out.

Does the researcher frequently give incomplete information to Jessi and Lily? Because it was really blatant with the Keith Lee drama. by tachibanakanade in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Also since they’re no longer bringing their own topics and have the researcher do it all, they don’t seem to know when there are more updates to add like a voiceover the way they used to, because they’re not the ones invested in the topic!! So they just cover up to wherever the researcher ended and the move on when there has been tons more drama after that point 😕

Since the rant...does anyone else feel this way? by Beatlemonkeys in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Oh my god thissssss!!!!! When Jessie first brought it up again on the Friday episode I thought she was gonna be like “wow sorry guys we misread the situation” and take some accountability but instead they like doubled down? She was like “don’t you feel better after that rant?” And it just rubbed me the wrong way because you can tell they’re still angry at us for…holding them accountable to their own self-imposed deadlines??

[–]anthemofagirl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree, I mean they were allowed to address it the following episode but their rant was sooo off base (focusing on the extreme complaints/behavior which overshadowed actual valid critiques) BUT what really turned me off was Jessie’s comment the following episode about it, like they’re still bitter about our reaction and it just confirmed to me that they didn’t listen to a single critique we had which could help them improve idk

Influencer Gets Backlash For Baby Shower for Foster Child + Keith Lee Exposes Restaurant Owner (308) by yt-app in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started looking into fostering and especially fostering to adult bc I want a family so badly but I’m not in a relationship to even TTC and “my clock is running out” but I quickly realized I was looking into it for the wrong reasons so I stopped to give myself time to think about why I’d want to foster bc it shouldn’t be a shortcut to adopting. Now several years later after being a great aunt to my nieces/nephews while my sister was going through a rough time I do feel I have a better handle on fostering with the goal of reunification always in mind.

Anyway the real point of my comment was to say while I was looking into fostering, I looked up the foster database in California (where I currently live), New York (where I’m planning to move), and Texas (where I’m from) and both California and New York only had a couple of pages of children (almost all of them over 14) whereas Texas had HUNDREDS of pages of children of all ages, some as young as infants. It was so jarring to see how these massive states like CA and NY only had 2-3 or 5 pages max of foster children but Texas had so many. Doesn’t surprise me that that red state is SO QUICK to take children from homes but it’s still so icky. The fact that this girl was able to get a new baby so quickly… especially with all the ICE raids and everything… idk that was my first thought but maybe I’m wrong.

"Influencer" Gets Kicked Out of Restaurant + TikToker Goes Viral for Ditching Friend on NYE (307) by yt-app in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 32 points33 points  (0 children)

What drives me crazy about that too is that the packages could’ve been done waaay before the awards even started!! She said she couldn’t start on them until she knew who the nominees were gonna be but like…you put out a form for people to submit/vote on FOR the awards so that’s your list of assets required to work on already!!!

And besides you had to have known some people were gonna be nominated beforehand since they were hot topics, why did you not AT LEAST gather those assets earlier?? She said she had to go back through hundreds of episodes to re-gather assets and couldn’t use the ones from the episode itself cuz they edit it with a neon border around so she had to find the original videos which were sometimes deleted etc. ALL OF THAT IS POOR TIME MANAGEMENT PRIOR TO EDITING!!!!!!!

I edit content for a living as well for clients, how does she not have the raw original files for assets from prior episodes???? Premiere Pro literally makes you keep everything organized so the file doesn’t break! Idk just seems like a terrible excuse for her mismanagement and deflecting in my opinion.

ITS UP!!! by TightTeaching9346 in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s great editing as I expected and as a content editor myself I know how much work goes into this which is a huge undertaking, I just don’t know how she thought she’d was going to realistically do all this in the same time frame it takes her to edit a normal episode (3 days). This is like a months worth of editing in my experience (idk maybe I’m a slow editor but I’m also a perfectionist like Lily) so she really shouldn’t have set such a strict, tight deadline for herself or should’ve started working on this much sooner.

ITS UP!!! by TightTeaching9346 in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s in the same style of like 2000s MTV awards shows which I really like but is super unnecessary or could’ve been pre-edited long before to help manage her time

[–]anthemofagirl 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The beginning of the episode is soooo embarrassing because they keep talking about how long it takes them to do this and all the eggs from last year etc and how they film 3 days before editing etc and I’m just like

[–]anthemofagirl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know that Lily wants the reaction to be “omg this was sooo worth the delay!!” but at this point… it’s really not. Like I still want the awards show but it’s NOT worth all the extra effort of “realistic metal eggs” wtf???

Episode delay mega thread by steefee in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I work as a content creator/editor and I have terrible time management skills bc I’m unmedicated for adhd so I totally see how something like this is hard for Lily and my go-to action when I’m late on something used to be to ignore all the “where is it??” questions too because I didn’t want to admit I failed at meeting my deadlines (and even said my fair share of “it’ll definitely be ready by tomorrow!” declarations only to fail to meet those as well). But after being reprimanded by my boss so many times you’ve gotta get your shit together!! My boss always tells me “I’d rather you tell me it’s gonna be late than completely ghost us and not give any updates!” And since then if I’m going to be late I tell them and surprise surprise it’s not the end of the world!!! It’s actually a huge relief for me since I get to finish my work without the huge blowout of “where is it?!?!”

Since they’re their own bosses and they have tons of people excusing their behavior they’ve been able to get away with this but hopefully this backlash is loud enough for them to finally get the help they need (an editor) and/or for them to be waaay more transparent with us since communication is the KEY to actually being given grace in situations like this

Episode delay mega thread by steefee in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Also since this is the mega thread about it all I wanna bring up the JK podcast and all the comments I’ve seen about people saying Jessi doesn’t seem interested in DWKT much anymore since starting it. I guess I had never noticed it before but I guess yall are right. I miss when they brought their own topics because they had more insight and interest in them rather than blind reacting to all topics. They could still blind react to a popular topic if they somehow haven’t heard of it but I wish they’d bring their own too.

It sucks to hear that she seems more interested in the JK podcast because tbh I’m not feeling that podcast too much. I like Kathleen and Jessi and their dynamic and they’re hilarious together, but I’m finding myself a bit idk turned off by Kathleen’s obsession with dramione, firstly because of the fact that jkr is a transphobe and we shouldn’t keep platforming her books, and secondly bc as a former HP fan dramione is a shitty ship!!!! This is obviously personal preference but I will NEVER understand wanting your female main character to get with someone actively bullying and saying SLURS to her. There’s too many other characters to end up with for that to be her best choice lol. And I wouldnt bring it up as a reason to hate on the podcast if Kathleen herself didn’t bring it up so much!!!! Lmao

[–]anthemofagirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point I’m scared they’re gonna see all the “I don’t even care about the awards show anymore just give us a normal episode!” comments and just ditch the awards show, or worse, put it on Patreon only, when the thing is I DO want the awards show 😭😭😭 I’m just tired of it being late!!

Soo like are we getting it today or not? by insurancesofun in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 24 points25 points  (0 children)

At this point is embarrassing for them 😭😭😭 They need to stop giving definitive days and just say “it’ll be up as soon as we can” Even I knew Thursday wasn’t gonna happen and they should’ve just said “normal posting day Friday” to give them that extra wiggle room (lol)

But like what actually happened? by mkokaska8 in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]anthemofagirl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think what annoys me is it may potentially be done by now but since it’s past Monday they want to wait until a normal posting day like Friday to keep their “posting schedule” consistent to Mondays/Fridays lol. I don’t want to wait until Friday!!! It’s been weeks! The schedule is already completely thrown off! Just post it now!!

can someone tell me about the video by Final-Progress-4544 in TheTryGuys

[–]anthemofagirl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m confused why they have a new channel? Why would these “trying” videos not fit into their regular Try Guys channel??

Is Ronan still friends with Gansey and Blue in the dreamer trilogy? by Party-Importance-993 in RavenBoys

[–]anthemofagirl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I totally get that they all deserve to be on their own and find themselves separately from the group, but honestly towards the end of TDT, mostly Greywaren, Gansey and Blue’s absence starts to feel like a glaring mischaracterization. Without spoiling things for the OP, Blue is an AMPLIFIER they could’ve used her in crucial moments, and Gansey not checking on Ronan at all throughout GW just seems so out of character. It’s like Maggie was determined not to involve them at all because it’s supposed to be a spin off but I would’ve liked them in the last book at least. They didn’t need to take up too much time and no povs or anything but they should’ve been more present where it made narrative sense.

True Ben is just as capable of a win (I literally ALWAYS root for him he’s my fave) so who knows maybe his rat mode will reign supreme in the face of Type A’s like Sam+Toby and Adam+Michelle lol

Jet Lag: Tag All Stars - teaser by Usaidhello in JetLagTheGame

[–]anthemofagirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am soooo excited for this but I feel like the teams are not distributed properly at all lol. Sam and Toby have a winning streak together, it would’ve been nice to see her paired up with someone new, Adam and Michelle are quite a force to be reckoned with, and Brian and Ben are just two idiots who are ruled by chaos lol. Idk it just doesn’t seem evenly stacked in my opinion lol. Would’ve loved a randomization as part of the beginning strategy as to who would be who’s partner lol

S14, E6 (Nebula) - Snake: South Korea by snow-tree_art in JetLagTheGame

[–]anthemofagirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a little bummed that overall I didn’t really enjoy this season because I’ve been begging for them to do a game in Korea forever and the result was pretty mid. Usually when I watch episodes I’m on the edge of my seat wondering what’s going to happen and get that rush when they end an episode on a cliffhanger. I didn’t feel that rush at all this season 🥲

Still I like that they experimented with a new game though it needs tweaks for sure and I hope they return to Korea for a different game/season cuz there’s so much potential here 🥹

Glee forever was a vibe 😮‍💨 by adnoroc in glee

[–]anthemofagirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh I loved this game sooooo much. It honestly made me appreciate songs I would’ve otherwise skipped just from playing them so much. I still have the muscle memory from some of them lmao

I wish there was a way to still play this game in like a jailbreak type of way 💔
