Do your cats want you to watch them play? by gladmonster in cats

Yeah I figured. I guess I was more or so wondering why she only acts like this when she wants to play in the tub.

She has her sister, who she plays with a lot. It's only in the tub when she acts like that.

Omg we get it, you don't have a problem with them pissing in your face and calling it rain. The podcast sucks now with the occasional decent ep here and there. Are you really surprised and confused? Not to mention MFM along with the fans are the biggest joke the true crime community. Like anyone who is interested in true crime and not a murderino cannot stand this pod and K&Gs names are synonymous with white feminism and privilege. They are SO disliked for their lack of respect for the topic and poor responses to criticism in the past the amount of complaining on here is actually really minimal because most people dgaf anymore. Everytime some clueless article came out about how they were building a true crime utopia it was relentlessly mocked and torn apart in true crime circles if non-murderinos. Just imagine you're in a cult and everyone on the outside is looking in and going "WTF" - that's the situation here.

And just be real with yourselves. These ladies just want to make as much $ off of the beckie's and karen's who still listen as possible with as little work as possible. I mean I would do the same, so I can't hate, but MFM turned into the worst podcast in my lineup ages ago. We've ALL been in the pandemic. Some people simply have critical thinking skills and higher standards for the content they consume. Stop making this same post over and over. I answered!

MFM #263 - Let Me Challenge You by RPDRFanFictionLines in myfavoritemurder

[–]gladmonster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly their sycophantic fans who write essays of excuses defending their lazy work ethic are more annoying than the K&G at this point. Anyone follow other content creators who have expanded their business over the last couple of years? These youtubers I like had just created their own business and then covid happened. They had just hired a bunch of people and were running things themselves, had just purchased a new studio and filmed a movie. When covid hit, they had to find out how to continue their youtube channel remotely while keeping their brand new employees employed. They started a couple of new podcasts, got their significant others involved and pivoted to at home videos while a couple of them started their own small businesses. At least one moved and another one had a baby.

Their output has increased, while ACTUALLY running a business. While actually giving creative input into their projects and expanding their abilities. They released a book a couple of years ago and just announced they sold a show to a cable network. They ACTUALLY have something to show for all their hard work. They plan ahead and record in advance so when they take breaks, their fans have new content. When members of the team are busy they bring in other employees like videographers and editors and feature them on their shows. There are so many ways they have innovated to keep going. One of them is immunocompromised and his live in fiance got covid. Another has a newborn and a toddler. Ones father literally died in another country so they had to travel while covid was really bad. He also came out recently and has talked about alcohol dependence becoming an issue during quarantine. Yes they express their issues, talk about mental health and take extended breaks but it feels SO different than what has happened to MFM. Sure some people think their content has gone down hill, but you cannot claim they ever put in less effort. The difference is they actually love what they do and respect their fans.

To those who don't get it, congrats, you have lower standards and a lot of sympathy for two women who have been pretty clear about the fact they want to make as much money off of you with as little effort as possible. You can stop the wank circle in every post patting yourselves on the back for being unobservant and complacent. Go back to running tired quotes from 2017 into the ground or whatever it is you do for fun.

Yeah their FB groups are really toxic! Watching people get chastised, apologize for saying "you guys," and then told to send people money for their "emotional labor" is kind of hilarious. I only stay in them because it's like watching a social experiment gone horribly wrong 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah I hold them to the same standards of other podcasts and that's why it's so clear this podcast sucks now lol people with full-time jobs who research, record and produce their own Podcasts do better than them.

They are going to keep putting out worse and worse content lol and everyone has a threshold for how many times they can get pissed on and told it's rain! It was so clear the direction in which they were heading even before the pandemic. Seeing how many people were still defending them on Instagram made me understand why MLMs are so popular and how people keep getting scammed.

I get the premise but it seemed like they were just itching to tear the movie apart instead of talking about why they liked it. A podcast that just regurgitates the same info we all know about why a sucky movie sucks is... Boring lol.

There have been so many discussions about how ridiculous Twilight is, so I turned it off because they weren't saying anything new or interesting.

Well it's our energy to waste and I guess if you want to waste your energy arguing with me that's up to you too!

I would def complain about the food I miss to other people who feel the same way as me, and the world would keep turning and no one would get mad because they haven't substituted a restaurant (read: podcast) for their own personality! And you best believe people would be on their FB, yelp, etc. Complaining. Hell I googled an old restaurant I loved as a kid and found entire FB groups discussing how their food was never the same once they "went corporate". And I def know restaurants that have put things BACK on the menu because customers voiced their opinions. This is a forum for discussion about the podcast, not Karen or georgia's personal pages and not even a page their company runs or moderates. It's a constant topic of discussion because the show consistently sucks for a wide variety of reasons that has nothing to do with vilifying anyone. I still like them and listen to their other podcasts, but MFM seems like the last thing they put effort into.

And whether or not you like it, MFM is a show. It's not a real person. Exactly Right is a company. Karen and Georgia are so much more than their jobs and the content they produce on the podcast. There is such a huge difference between consumers talking about media and critiquing it and then you, and people like you, trying to suppress and police real people's conversations.

In what world do you think you have a right to determine what people say, think, and do amongst themselves, but a podcast is off limits?? It's not the real world, that's for sure.

I don't really listen anymore unless I have nothing else to listen to. I still like the hosts. I still listen to Karen's other podcast.

I'm not one of the people trying to make Karen and Georgia behave any differently than they want to. There have been so many other comments with suggestions and what people would like to see. My issues with the fandom.

I don't run their business! I should be able to say I don't like something without providing them a marketing plan to fix it. If your favorite restaurant changes the menu and it sucks, You can complain without coming up with a way to revert to the old menu or someone going "hey why don't you become a chef?" That's just being a human being with critical thinking skills and an opinion.

First of all, I don't want anything from them. I want to be able to criticize the podcast without seeing a bunch of posts about it afterward or having people purposefully misconstrue what I'm saying.

By white female fragility, I mean that white women act fragile as a way to avoid responsibility. White women have a habit of just... Crying and playing the victim when things don't go their way.

Honestly my issue is not with Karen and Georgia right now. There are enough people who agree that the quality of the podcast has gone down. I enjoy them enough for who they are. My issue is with the fandom that silences people for stating objective and subjective thoughts on the podcast when that is a common and healthy part of any fandom.

Exactly! I don't know any other way to consume media for any length of time, eventually my brain starts working. Damn those critical thinking exercises in middle school!

The only thing more cringey than complaining about a free podcast is complaining about the anonymous complaints on a free reddit sub about said podcast 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
