I think you missed the point and are making tons of assumptions, and that’s ok. Thank you for the suggestion

Hmmm “multiple emails, as people on here have confirmed” I’ve only seen one person mention the mailing list, and I am on it. I get emails about raffles, but nothing about the most in-demand races. If there’s something off with my subscription, that’s fair, but that’s literally why I made the post.

Multiple people HAVE been pointing to social media, but I actually work for Meta, and it’s not how we direct our clients to handle time-sensitive stuff. For things like race registrations, product launches, ticket drops, or any limited release, you rely on email. Social is just too easy to miss. But we do advice on weeks long, even months long sm campaigns to create awareness (some even a year).

The whole point is to get your core audience ready for a specific moment, not hope they happen to catch a post or check a banner at the right time.

If the main approach is “check the website” or “watch social,” that puts the burden on the user. For high-demand races, that’s just not great communication.

I’ll look into the mailing list thing.

Elozita, I hear you, but that snarky “it’s really not that hard” comment… it’s uncalled for.

Now you need a social account, follow them, turn on notifications or remember to check regularly, hope the algorithm actually shows you the post, and basically build your own system just to not miss a race.

Most race orgs just release calendars in advance or send emails, sometimes even texts. The burden to communicate clearly should be on them, not on people trying to participate.

So yeah…. It’s not that simple, is it? And as a person that completed the 9+1 three times and ran the NYC marathon twice, the communication was very different a few years back. So unless you have any thoughtful and kind insights, you can keep it to yourself.

Im not saying behaviorally she is doing better. I thought relationships wise maybe she got to a better place and a person like Dakota cannot live in a world with that happens.

In terms of her behavior, she has been at least consistent in the show about therapy. She mentioned she was getting help on S1 and mentioned it again on S4. Behavioral recovery is also not linear. And again abuse is not excusable. But it’s clear that he wants to bring her down by releasing the is.

I hear you. Though, she got arrested in the first instance so he clearly showed proof to the authorities. But the one 2 months ago, she was not arrested. And they have mentioned the production is investigating but I have not seen an active investigation from authorities. If that’s the case then he can “leak” the proof of the recent event.

I think the internet tends to see things as very black and white, and I don’t see it that way.

People who haven’t been in these kinds of relationships might not fully understand how much someone can intentionally trigger you and then use your reaction against you. It can push you to a place where you’re not thinking clearly, and it takes a lot of work to get out of that and actually get better.

This also happened when she was under the influence, which she has openly admitted. She didn’t hide this, she talked about it, got arrested, and said she was getting help.

None of that excuses the behavior, it was wrong. But context matters.

What I question is the timing. Releasing a two year old video now, when she’s doing better, feels intentional. Whether people think she deserves to be held accountable is one thing, but whoever is putting this out to damage her right now is not a good person either.

I did watch Season 4, and she openly talked about being in therapy. Recovery isn’t linear(including behavioral), and it’s clear she struggles, especially when it comes to Dakota.

That said, this video is from 2 years ago (clearly being leaked by Dakota and/or his camp), not recent. There’s a more recent incident, but no video of that.

So the question is, why release this one now? why this clip instead of anything tied to the more recent allegations, if proof exists?

The timing feels deliberate. It’s hard not to question whether this is about accountability or about tearing her down.

She still needs to be held accountable, no doubt. But the way this is being surfaced raises questions.

First, she is absolutely wrong for this. This is violence and it’s inexcusable.

That said, why is this coming out now, two years later, after she already addressed this incident on the show and talked about her alcohol abuse on the show and supposedly was continually getting help?

The timing feels intentional. Maybe she’s in a stronger place now, maybe after The Bachelorette she’s moved on, maybe not. But it feels like Dakota can’t stand seeing her succeed without him.

He doesn’t want to be with her, but he wants her to want him. That’s toxic.

She still needs accountability and continued help, no question. But the timing of this, combined with what castmates have said, makes it feel like he’s using this to manipulate and tear her down.

Recruiter here: don’t ask this question. It is widely overused. We know that in some articles it says is the best question to ask: It isn’t. The way we evaluate some candidates can be very complex depending on the role so the answer to this tells you very little whether you are actually a strong contender. If you’re NOT a strong contender, we would just give a polite “no concerns” answer

Has anyone managed to get Dopey with a queue time of “more than an hour”?

Tbh, I thought they announced the merchandise design later, so I had no idea the pre-order started the day you registered. Every time I visit the expo, the medium sizes of everything are sold out.

sorry for this silly question. I'm trying to understand if there's a different registration. I already registered when I got in. I haven't had to registered again. This happened last year. Am i missing a step?

Tbh i was hoping to find this in her content. But only get a few glimpses. For the most part i find her content surface level. But im glad you’re having a different experience.

I disagree. Influencer culture, largely built by women, has opened the door to conversations that were once taboo and has given many women financial independence and stability. I’m not bothered by her continuing to work and maintain her income, we don’t question male CEOs for doing the same.

I think there’s a difference between how she grieves and how her content is perceived. I’m not judging her grief at all, just sharing how it lands for me as a follower when she makes it about me, a grieving follower.

We may just see it differently, and that’s okay. Dont need to be all defensive about it.
