What resonated the most for me with the last thread was the confirmation that a majority of us tattlers were at one point staunch supporters if not stans of Scummy’s, or at the very least, avid viewers/consumers of her content/products.
We don’t ‘hate’ for the mere sake of it. We offer genuine and valid critiques when she says/does things that are objectively damaging, misleading or manipulative (which unfortunately, has become a majority of her existence on and offline).
If anything, many of us just wish she’d do better, and may even support her again if she did, but I reckon any chance of change has long sailed as her narcissism, ED, entitlement, and performative religiosity have really taken hold. So what’s left to do but observe the train wreck?
But you know what? It’s all good, because Scummy actually looooves us as much as we do her! She’s constantly reading here, making poorly disguised accounts, referencing things that have been discussed here (Hi, Sez! You’re welcome for the commission you got off of my Yacht Club
bathrobe purchase, btw, which I mentioned here, and you just had to get yours out of mothballs the next day
).
We have a great relationship going with Scummy, actually! Scummy gives us fodder, we comment on it in a forum she can’t control, she has a tanty and uses that for more content, we comment, and so the ride continues!
We’re a big part of what’s keeping her brand going at this point, but I’m happy to be part of it in many ways, because at the end of the day I can get the gossip fix and laughter here that keep me entertained at will, and then log off and enjoy a real and truly authentic existence in my own life; but Scummy will always be stuck in hers.
