Shut up galz ... so boringOh my god this fucking thread today. Give us some drama Linds plzzz, cba with the capitalism/snowflake debates anymore
This is defo Sarah...way too verbose to be Lindsay herselfJust to be clear, J wasn't lead down a stray path, she's an extremely astute business person and was mates with L prior to the pod. Prior to starting the pod they'd fallen out and didn't speak for a number of years. J knew that L being explosive is entertaining and was happy to build a career around packaging that for the consumption of others. Everyone gives J a considerable amount of sympathy here for professionally handling the situation, but consider that the product they were selling was L's life and what that means.
L's clearly a vulnerable person with a massive audience. Her life and all its ups and downs are broadcast in a very public way while J's are not. J could quietly disappear and take up another career, L's career is sharing her entire life online. She is fully locked in to doing this and will never have a normal job, even if she wanted to. Sure she didn't have the same financial difficulties other single mothers have, but she's had an extremely emotionally difficult life. She's grown up in a super strict born again cult. She was basically forced into an arranged marriage at 19 to a shithead who didn't want anything to do with his son. She was robbed of a normal adolescence and adulthood, and her own agency. Despite it all she's come out being able to make light of this and tell her story in a funny and compelling way. Sure J handled all the mechanics of running the podcast, but Itgalz is intrinsically about L's life. It's her ups and downs that's the heart of the show. So it makes sense for L to buy J out and continue it on.
I agree. I am sorry for those posters losses but you cant project your own connotations onto common phrases.Dear god are people actually arguing over the term “give someone enough rope”. You’d wonder how some manage to get through the day. Society is getting more ridiculous by the day
No one was egging her to do anything. Why are you taking it so literally? Jesus this conversation is utterly pointless if you truly believe people were encouraging her to kill herself Snowflake central. I cannot.OP here. My take is that L and her family are most definitely reading this thread. She's probably lost her livelihood and is suffering a large degree of public humiliation. I'm of the mind that people should practice some degree of safeguarding around egging people on to do things like that when they clearly aren't in a good place. Personally I am not "triggered" by it or anything else, but I work with vulnerable adults and know how this stuff plays out. A small bit of cop on is necessary. If a few people on the thread want to defend suicide analogies for some weird reason, that's up to them.
Hmmm..i meeeeeean he was messaging at least one girl on insta looking for her uncensored nudes so.. she posted about it on her private story and the screen recording was shared around. Jenny knows too. This was like 2 weeks before they got engaged, if even.
