Her only 'friends' were the children of her mum's NCT friends, and her mum set them up on play dates well into her 20s. It's pathetic that she thinks she has friends just because she bought them.I don’t have kids yet but I follow a handful of parenting influencers and Bryony’s newest video is mostly verbatim of Instagram infographic advice I’ve seen knocking around. Like ‘’don’t show up unannounced’’ ‘’let the mum hold the baby, practical help is best’’ etc etc. I think it’s well intentioned and I keep it in mind when meeting up with friends with babies. I’m ofc not cleaning anyone’s bathroom lol but the main sentiment is take initiative to help and be mindful of not creating more stress/burden. Bryony claimed it as her original content, somehow missed the core sentiment and took it in an absurd direction because she is so painfully out of touch.
The awkward truth for her is that she didn’t actually have any friends before Oryn was conceived. I recall her spending time with other foster carers a few years ago but I’d be surprised if they were still in touch. I just find it strange this whole video is framed as if it’s from lived experience of long term friendships changing eg. ‘friend groups being split’ when babies are born. What? She is on record multiple times between the ages of 15-25 saying she doesn’t have close friends and doesn’t stay in touch with girls from dance/school unless her mother arranges it. I remember vividly that she didn’t invite any guests to the gender revealinfanticide meltdownparty, so her mum invited them for her as a surprise. Are we supposed to believe these people were cleaning her bathroom or taking her baby out for the day? Is she doing that for anyone? I feel quite sorry for her in a way. She seems very smug with her new found smbc friendships and I hope they last, but she’s frankly not being honest about her actual life here, and she’s regurgitated online discourse like it’s her own lived experience once again.
She is sneaky with language when she’s mimicking instagram posts because she never outright claims it’s her own experience, just insinuates it is. For example ‘’often we find our friendships break down’’ or ‘’new parents may find it hard to go out to bars or restaurants’. It gives her a really unsettling tone of authority on experiences that are blatantly irrelevant to her life. This video is such a good example.
I saw her story and came straight hereI know i comment on it everytime but...im sooooo glad poor, hard done to, exhausted Briony has another holiday booked with her parents. 3 of them entertain a baby on the plane and shes already griping about it. I wonder how many days she'll have to spend holed up in the holiday room "recovering" from the trauma of close contact parenting for the duration of the flight.
I wanted to reply to her insta story question and say "stick a screen infront of him, it's what you usually do"
She makes me so madWell if he's anything like her, his parents.
As a fellow feminist, I don't think it's possible to understate the importance of having positive male role models in the lives of children of all genders. It doesn't have to be a father, nor does it necessarily have to be a father-like figure but I really worry about Oryn growing up without any positive male figures in his life.She makes me so mad
Bryomy… the second you bought a vial of sperm as a commodity you lost the right to discuss the role of fathers. You don’t get to talk shit about dads. Oryn doesn’t have one and you don’t even know any men.
And I say this as a rad fem lesbian. I. But the feminist bio-political hot takes you’re reposting are not about you or your life. Shut up.
Bryony Farmer 3: Hampton’s finest faux-feminist know-it-all virgin
The fact she expected to make it through the selection process when she doesn’t even have a GCSE to her name is absolutely wild to me, but hopefully might give her a dose of reality. Employers don’t care if you were an “unconventional child” if you are an uneducated, unemployable hypochondriac who has no evidenced skillset and any employer who searches her name will also find this thread and all her previous controversies. I would pay to see her application, especially if her poetry is her standard of writing.Two issues of note in today’s video. Bryony still has to do her own washing up and considers this to be an incredible imposition on her Netflix watching time. I weep for her.
She has been applying for jobs! Well only kind of. She saw a job she liked and applied thinking she do well (three stage selection process). But she didn’t get through the first round. Was gutted but has decided to share it with us plebs as the idea that you wouldn’t get the first job you ever applied for has surely never occurred to her audience. (Who is she addressing, 12 year old girls waiting for their periods to start?)
If the job hunting is going to become an ongoing saga then I am here for it. She’s apparently got to dip into her savings to fund some of her 6+ holidays a year so the wolves are practically at the door!
Love how she is oblivious to the fact that most recruiting is done by outside companies given criteria like:
Must have relevant degree
Must have 2+ years experience in the field
Must be able to work full time.
And anyone who can’t meet that has their cv put straight in the bin. She only wants a job for 2 days a week. What exactly is she qualified to do again?
