Mamamia #2

Omg don’t turn this into tone policing each other. It’s not the MMOL Facebook group.

Sarah Bartolo nailing it against Jessie’s shit chat on Q&A. Since when did Jessie become so highly regarded to be a social commentator on Q&A? I’ve seen clips of her talking about the rental crisis which she is not a victim of and now the dating apps which again she doesn’t have any recent experience of.

God if I was a renter (and I agree it’s absolutely fucked) she is the last person I’d want representing and advocating for me. 1 easy trick to avoid the crisis: marry the owner of the point piper mansion’s child! Mia massively downplays the insane level of wealth she and her family have. What a tone deaf choice.

They even added it on Strife when the intern’s Mum called Mia, I mean, Asher Keddie, who’s definitely not playing the character of Mia

Today's subscriber episode where they discuss the mean things people say about them online- they asked Clare where she found those mean comments that she read aloud, and she said 'Instagram, Tiktok and online forums' her and Holly were clearly referencing Tattle but wouldn't mention it by name.

I think Holly would have to search quite hard to find anything negative about her online. Consensus is generally that she is a very good podcaster, has an interesting perspective and doesn't make a women's news podcast all about herself. Complaints seem to be mostly about Mia and the Stephens sisters…

I have a new hobby for the Christmas/New Year holiday - every time I see a silly facutal or grammatical error in a Mamamia article I comment on the article pointing it out. I'm currently at 2 for 2 of having my comment not posted, but the error I pointed out fixed.

Leigh Campbell is too busy whoring out affiliate links

Also, would not take beauty advice from someone resembling a wax figure

Oh the irony of today’s discussion about soft trolling , all admitting that they “bitch” about other famous people (and non famous/friends!) behind their back but can’t cope with some comments on a snark site. I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think Claire is worse than Jessie.

I just find the whole “60 hour labour” thing feeds into this weird, competitive labour nonsense of who had the longest labour and the least amount of pain relief.

I'm so tired of them asking for us to subscribe and pay extra in order to 'support women's media.' If we are already listening and reading, then we currently are supporting them, and they are already making huge amounts of money through advertsising. There are hundreds of other things (of much higher quality with correct grammar and syntax) that we can read and listen to for free, too!

Also.. the more I listen to Mia, the more I worry about the working conditions and pay of staff. Are they getting their piece of the subs pie?

Mia’s pro employer, anti working from home, anti work life balance, anti union sentiment is ick. It’s okay for Holly, Jessie, and to an extent Clair but everyone else there must have a pretty awful time.

 

[boysenberry]

The mental gymnastics of the twins’ mum is wild. Fuck off old lady, Mia’s own ideology is so deranged, she shared the ridiculous post from the unhinged page, of course Clem is going to retaliate. It is clear from the convo that Clem is not the one sending photos of dead babies to the twins’ yet this woman wants to control what Clem posts on her own page? Insta is filled with thousands of pictures of dead and mailed children now and somehow it’s all on Clem that Claire is getting sent photos? As far as I’ve seen Clem has not mentioned the twins when discussing the genocide until this point. Get fucked.

I think the only vague reference to the twins was saying something about Mamamia employees and nepotism but really Mia’s son is the main beneficiary there. I am not a Clem or Mamamia fan (obviously, I’m on this thread) but in my opinion MM & co come off looking far worse in this exchange.

 

[robbolife]

Mia is a complete hypocrite. Spews the ‘making the world a better place for women and girls’ but fat shamed Roxane Gray, supported the producer who supported Harvey Weinstein and has not an iota of concern for Palestinian women and girls. Cannot stand her and I hope Clem keeps on her

Mia is a White Feminist Zionist so everything she says, does and supports fits her perfectly.

 

[dulcielaroux]

This is coming from someone who’s never been pregnant but I don’t see the big deal about that the Hello Bump episode
The specialist briefly covered a few issues women can have while pregnant such as HG, diabetes, mental health and miscarriage
She said with HG itGoes away after 14 weeks for MOST women, so isn’t she just stating facts?
Also they then spoke to Martha about it for about 10 mins and acknowledged it was a serious issue, what more did they want?

I think if you haven’t had HG it is hard to grasp, I get that - but a lot of the information that was shared by the expert was wrong and dismissive. It’s like if they had an expert on to talk about postnatal depression and the advice was ‘it’ll go away soon, just try thinking happy thoughts or go to the doctor’ and then didn’t give any information about what you could do if you thought you had postnatal depression or links to PANDA or BeyondBlue etc

Also, I think if the few hundred people commenting on the reel by the HG charity are upset and they’re the community most affected then that’s worth listening to?

Mia's MMOL stans fangirling.

This has got to be about Jessie and Claire, right?

A million percent. As confirmed in the following image she posted of the conversation. Look, I don’t hate Jessie and Claire. I give them very little thought. And of course I don’t wish bad things on them, or photos of dead babies. But at the risk of stating the obvious and sounding like a 5 year old - she (Mia) started it! Clementine has been calling out white feminists and influencers to use their platforms, over and over again. But as far as I know she hasn’t called out Mia personally, and certainly not the twins? Mia was the one who reposted from the troll site. And her daughter is the one supporting said site? And you want Clementine to do what - stop sharing things and just ask for peace? I mean - wtaf. That is totally outrageous. Fuck off lady.

 

[cashedupbogan]

Oh dear, you would assume someone would double check a post going on a major SM platform

 

[mummasoc]

And the sycophants are out in the comment section oh thank you Jessie for articulating how we feel …… you grew up with two employed parents and went to a very good school. Shut up

 

[Blueshirts]

You can’t message people and police their page, especially as she hasn’t even mentioned these women. At all. Anyone sending any images of dead anyone to people are insane. Block!

Can you imagine the outrage if someone messaged Mia and asked her to stop posting about sparkly outfits or "lazy gewl" on her Instagram?

 

[screenfreelookatme]

Why would she message Clem? It’s so deranged to think ‘my poor darling daughters are receiving crappy messages on social media, I better step in here’. They are grown women. They benefit wildly from social media, they can deal with the pitfalls as well. How embarrassing for them!

And it’s got absolutely nothing to do with Clem anyway?!? Makes more sense to message Mia and be like, “hey! Because of YOUR stance, my daughters are copping heat”.

But either way, grown ass adults raising their own kids now. Give it a rest mum.

 

[frenchiefern]

Are these women for real? Why on earth would they think raising money for Holly to go and meet Gwen Paltrow is a normal thing to do? If she wants go to let her buy it herself or let Million Dollar Mia buy it for her in the name of research. The constant approval seeking on that group is really sad!

Why the fuck would anyone even consider paying for holly to go to a WORK event? So we can listen to 383 podcasts about how that impacted Mia?

These people seriously need a life.
