The first two parts of those tweets sound a lot like the chat I had with a school councillor (A young Nun who wasn't a complete witch) just before she asked me why I had punched Sister Mary Pauline full in the face.
She needs to stick to the cooking nonsense. It's less dangerous than this shite.

I think she meant working parents Jack

And those without co parents, a dad round the corner to cat sit, a girlfriend until SHE LEFT and an absolute fuckton of dosh from the TV/SM clusterfucks.

It’s ok not to do zoom calls every day when you don’t have to work for a living.
and not that she would know, sometimes keeping in contact, although tedious at times can really help mentally with remote working.

ETA: she has no idea how privileged she is, does she?

I bought some radishes today. I’ve never bought them before

Don’t know if this will sound insensitive but it’s not ok to do the things she says are ok. People need to recognise that regularly doing nothing, not cleaning, washing or tidying are signs of bigger problems. I don’t like the “it’s ok to...” side of “self-care”.

What we should be saying is “hey, if you’re starting to feel like that, reach out to someone, anyone and see if you can nip it in the bud before it becomes a bigger issue”. It’s like a warning light on a dashboard but obviously if you’re the person it can be hard to realise- particularly if some prat on the internet is acting like that’s normal behaviour.

...and my expensive lamp, gifted curtains, and Facetune.

To nonchalantly show off that not-at-all photoshopped ouchy mouth ulcer of course.

Maybe all the slop has messed with her ability to bite solids which is causing the ouchy mouth?

I’ve got considerably more teeth and bigger grapes THAN YOW.

A fiver’s worth of grapes with two different sized bunches. A quarter of her weekly budget.

Nice £150 quid Lamp there
(the Alfred lamp from Made, no less. Fancy pants... Mine is £25 from IKEA)

It does sound like she’s forgotten how to chew. I’ve never known such a drama to be made out of eating grapes. It’s absolutely riveting.

I’d quite like to sit in my pyjamas eating crisps and avoid zoom meetings but unfortunately have to work to pay my bills. Sadly I don’t have 300+ patreons to subsidise my lifestyle.
