How to Renovate a Chateau gained 34 patrons in 2 days. Their last video really worked for them.

I remember long ago when I was a patron of Michael, he did a Q&A (while out rowing in a boat on his family pond) and mentioned that he is an extreme perfectionist. I know that really hinders a lot of people in life. (I have totally lost interest in that bunch and never watch anymore). Remember a view is a view even if it is a hate view. You are putting money in their pocket either way. Same with the gift grab.

Is Andi there to help with the Christmas vlogs?

We can all learn from one another. Increase our understanding of things we are ignorant of. Reading tattle has certainly opened my eyes to what I was oblivious to.

Me too! I realized how little I look at people's crotches! I never noticed when the Texas volunteer's fly was down, nor Dan's many times his has been down! LOL There are other things too I just miss and am amazed at some of the Tattler's observation skills.


I've been thinking that really, Tattle is like a Book Club enjoying a good hardy critique of some crazy literature!

My husband is an INTJ!!

i never watched a video from them, but it’s so lovely how siblings can work together for a common goal.

17 hours agoI really wish you wouldn't highlight people who have received the donations/scholarship. It's an ableist and priviliged thing to do and it basically does the opposite of the intent. Things should be given without using the recipients for showing their impact - that is demeaning to the receivers.
Kathleen Clark
17 hours agoOh dear. I do not think that you get the point. The recipients should be celebrated and the fact that Stephanie has made the effort to look for deserving recipients should be acknowledged. The recipients are not demeaned at all. Puhleeze!

I see your point with the South African Student, perhaps the next Student can be annonymous. However, I believe the Suffolk Art Link organization were very, Very, VERY pleased with the increased awareness, this platform brings. Everything has a time and place.

Showing the director and hear from their perspective or showing some work is fine. Showing people who are using the service, is not - even with all the best intent in the world. There are better ways. I hate to nitpick as all of the work and donations are wonderful and should be continued, but we are just continually learning how to do it in a better and meaningful, yet respectful way.

@Melissa Sinclair They showed 2 Artists in the video. They both had a chance to talk about their work. The fact that one was disabled seems to have triggered you. You feel he needs to be protected, for some reason. All I saw were two Artists, full stop. Nothing was disrespectful here. There is nothing to "learn" here.

George was delighted to be interviewed and has been asking when the video will come out. I would not film anyone without their permission to use the footage. Many artists like their work to be highlighted, and Mmakhotso (who received the South African scholarship) would also like to appear in the vlog again at the end of her first year of studies. The funding of her second year is in no way dependent on this. I understand your concern, but it’s people’s own decision whether or not to showcase their art.

Melissa Sinclair I am sure that anyone included in the video whether administrative or individual had CHOICE to be included…and were not forced to do so…everyone who we have seen that were recipients seemed to be thrilled for the generosity. Why there are people such as yourself who have to nit pic EVERYthing (no matter how beneficial it is to those who benefit from the joy of receiving & participating in something positive)isost frustrating especially when at NO TIME was anyone looking uncomfortable or put upon. Maybe you need to just stop watching the Cadeaux Vlog if it so obviously offends you.

David Smith (and others): I am in complete agreement with you. I do not remotely understand Melissa Sinclair’s issue with this generous scholarship scenario. There is not one remote demeaning element in Stephanie’s programme here. The intent of promoting scholarship is clear. Everyone involved is clearly thankful for the opportunities that this scholarship programme promotes. I have no idea what Melissa means by being “ableist and privileged” and how Stephanie’s generosity is the “opposite of the intent”. Possibly she can explain. Because … I take exception to her odd observations.

13 hours ago @Linda Storey she has a legitimate point. Your comment is incredibly rude for someone who is a fan of this channel. Why not just let Stephanie explain instead of jumping on someone like they are a criminal. Stephanie is not some flower, she gave a good explanation, just wait next time and let Stephanie respond, that's who Melissa was addressing, not you.

@Melissa Sinclair I'm a mom of a couple of children with disabilities who would be part of a program like this, and I found it very touching how Gerry interviewed them. I was impressed that they were included rather than made invisible, as so often has happened with those with disabilities. George's mum was present and I'm sure if she had issue with him being featured she would have said something. Believe me, as another mum like her, we have tons of practice advocating for our children and we are so pleased when they find something they enjoy and are included in things. Just thought I'd add a different perspective.

@Chateau Unwrapped! I agree & totally support you. Blocking & deleting this type of negative aggression could be an option. Your vlogs are uplifting & bring joy to many, particularly those highlighted. Thank you for the joy you bring & your generosity Stephanie & Co.

Sorry! Yes, just click your profile and it will give you the option to edit your picture. Click “Edit” and then select a picture from your photo library (or wherever) to replace the default avatar.

This is how I do it in my Android phone. Pick a photo or image you like. I screenshot it on my phone and save it in my "photos" or "gallery" app. Click on your Tattle profile, click on "edit " (across the letter C) . This gives you the option to "choose file". Press this, It takes you to a blank page on your phone called "Recents" . I click the 3 bars at the top left and choose "Gallery," (it may be "Photos" on your phone) , I select my chosen photo, it uploads it to your Tattle profile when you press "Okay"

On his recently released Patreon video, MPK talked about how he didn’t have any money again!

I'm wondering if he thought he'd been furloughed during the pandemic and would still be getting 80% of his pay without having to do any work?!
