I HATE the term 'team internet'So Lily “no one tells you” Pebbles is proud to be “team internet” today because Zoe Sugg has said something to normalise female sexuality (which I strongly agree with). Why is Lily proud here? She’s the last person to talk about anything to do with sex, or “huhu, hmm, other things *gigglegiggle*” freely, as her and her frigid pal from the Nanna Edit have proven time and time again. Sorry Lily, but you can’t take credit for Zoe speaking up when as per your last podcast episode you don’t even think your daughter should see you putting a tampon in, and seem to be quite scared of sex education in general.

What alot of the OG influencers don't understand is they are a privileged phenomenon. They got in at the right time, the right age demographic (YT users were mostly young adults in those days) and b/c it was a new medium and lack of competition at the time, they were able to cultivate their brand without fear of money/homelessness b/c they were fortunate to have a partner/parents to help them. They were selling an escapist curated version of their lives and brands seeing there was a new avenue outside of TV/Radio/Film flocked to this cheaper medium. Trips were freely given to further perpetuate the myth of their ideal lives. Looking back, many vlogs had the vibe of indie films/music videos without models/stunning actresses in the starring role. However we're now ten years later where these OG influencers are older with children/mortgage/husband and haven't realised what worked previously isn't going to fly anymore. The pandemic is raging on and they can't present an escapist/idealic life without breaking the rules or coming across as wildly out of touch which is what they are.Anna also feels very grateful to Lily for all the opportunities she has allowed her to have. I have been diving into Lily's old vlogs and there have been so many beauty chats videos from 2015 or even earlier where Anna mentioned how she owes it to Lily, because she encouraged Anna to start vlogging, she taught her about working with brands blah blah blah. It was so funny to listen knowing what I know now, how Anna's views and follower counts are higher than Lily's and she's getting more brand deals. Lily really is an empty shell of what she used to be. All of the OG youtubers I used to watch are.
She's trying to take credit for something that she is not a part of again.So Lily “no one tells you” Pebbles is proud to be “team internet” today because Zoe Sugg has said something to normalise female sexuality (which I strongly agree with).

Ehmm I don't remember my mum doing it in front of me either. Is that supposed to be a part of sex education?as per your last podcast episode you don’t even think your daughter should see you putting a tampon in
I don’t even understand why her daughter is in the toilet with her anyway? I go into the bathroom, do my business and then come back out and my daughter (who is the same age as Grey) is still doing whatever she was doing. Is Grey glued to Lily’s hip? I just don’t understand itEhmm I don't remember my mum doing it in front of me either. Is that supposed to be a part of sex education?
By the time her daughter would be able to grasp the concept of periods and tampons, she would be grown enough not to go to bathroom with her mother, I'd say.
Especially with Rich there.... I am sadly not a parent myself but know a lot of parents who complain they can 'never go to the toilet alone', but with Lily it seems like yet another thing to moan about. Have we ever heard her say anything positive about being a mum?I don’t even understand why her daughter is in the toilet with her anyway?

Unfortunately I strongly suspect she has some sort of post natal depression. Which is actually really devastating but I am surprised no one close to Lily has picked up on itEspecially with Rich there....

Omg the temptation to type that back.... I know its catty but I like seeing beauty from beautiful women? Like why do I need the slightly tired and stressed girl next door with burnt hair showing me what to do? Don't get me wrong I'm no oil painting but I feel at this point I can make myself up better without Lily's tips, she's not aspirational at all in that areaActually howling that this woman is asking for feedback: "If you're thinking "nah... I wouldn't swipe up on a beauty haul video", what WOULD make you want to watch a beauty video from me?"
Hate to say it but she would have to have a different face lmao (+ a different personality, better skin, etc.)
She uploaded it at a really weird time. 7am on a Sunday...most people are still snoozing or they’ve woken up to actually do something like go for a run. Sure fire way to have a slow start to your video engagementLol!gleam asked her to do this beauty haul or she is trying to tell gleam that she is still a beauty blogger. Lol
Lily has started doing this to catch views before Anna uploads her video at 9 am U.K. time. Early bird gets the worm and all that but unfortunately Lily can’t even find the worm.She uploaded it at a really weird time. 7am on a Sunday...most people are still snoozing or they’ve woken up to actually do something like go for a run.

My Daughter is 3 and whilst she does sit and play on her own, she will sometimes come into the bathroom whilst I'm in there. I'm in a flat so its easier for her to do that as opposed to us living in a house. She has seen me use tampons and is now at the age where she asks me what they are, TBH I don't know how to explain them so just say I'll tell you when you're olderI don’t even understand why her daughter is in the toilet with her anyway? I go into the bathroom, do my business and then come back out and my daughter (who is the same age as Grey) is still doing whatever she was doing. Is Grey glued to Lily’s hip? I just don’t understand it
Omg in 10 years time she will be no one told me how to explain period to my daughter.My Daughter is 3 and whilst she does sit and play on her own, she will sometimes come into the bathroom whilst I'm in there.

She said something like “she’s not supposed to see that”. I just don’t get what the huge deal is? I don’t mean to say that you need to teach your toddler about tampons of course, I just don’t see the problem if a toddler sees their mother using tampons.Ehmm I don't remember my mum doing it in front of me either. Is that supposed to be a part of sex education?

It's almost as if Lily's parents were over the whole parenting thing by the time she came along. It doesn't seem like her two older sisters gave her advice on anything (boys, sex, periods) and it seems like her parents pretty much left her to her own devices (out clubbing in London and off on foreign holidays with her boyfriend when she was just 15).Omg in 10 years time she will be no one told me how to explain period to my daughter.
I hate to do this but I have to blame her mum for not educating her kids regarding tampon disposal, she might be the youngest but that doesn’t mean you have to give up. If you are telling her what period was surely you tell her how to dispose it? My mum did lol!
