Definitely Ruby Granger and Jack Edwards, but there may have been others. When criticised, Ruby made a show about donating the fee to an ‘underfunded state school’ for a Holocaust memorial but that seems to have died a death and no more has been heard about it.Wow, who is this?
I agree with this. And what's her logic for feeling guilty about putting pressure on the NHS when she was actively trying to conceive? She tries to be this goody goody aware of her privilege, but it come across really insincere to me (it's the same thing when she says she has to wait to do renovations after buying a 1 million pound house).Oh yes totally. I thought it was ridiculous martyrdom. It’s not like the midwives are being called away from treating covid patients. They are there for people giving birth. And you have every right to go on as normal and get pregnant during a pandemic.
Shes just trying to people please and not upset the internet to the most extreme degree.
somebody has mentioned all the rubbish coming with HelloFresh packaging, the Earth must be rotating in joyHappy performative activism..uuh..earth day!
the book is slow, I got bored really quicklyOh, that makes sense. I knew it had to be a reference to something. I have not seen The Handmaid’s Tale yet. Have been wanting to, but would have to get yet another streaming service, and I refuse. —Or I can just read the book of course.
thanks!
I thought the same thing about the silk shirt and trousers - clearly pyjamas?! And I used to like that skirt, obviously isn’t Scandi mum though.Is she selling her pyjamas separately as silk shirt and trousers? Is she taking the piss?
Btw I’ve just put on a top that I got for my 18th birthday (turning 31 soon) and it made me think of our queen of sustainability and her capsule wardrobe. It’s obviously just a random top that happens to still be in good shape, but it just made me think of Anna and how proud she is if she’s owned “pieces” for two years.View attachment 543427
Performative privilege Olympics is spot on! Anna and Lily leading the influencer pack in all talk, no real action. It seems that instead of striving to become better allies, white women are concentrating their efforts on who can be the most performative. Anna’s double dipping in both sustainability and equality categories, tho they are not completely separate!I call it the performative privilege olympics and it comes up a lot in conversations that I have with white women. (Full disclosure: I’m a white woman.) But I’ve noticed it when people are talking about privilege and they hedge all of their sentences with something like “I’m in a privileged position to have a job during the pandemic” or “it’s my privilege that lets me buy multiple pairs of non-maternity jeans to hide my pregnancy, but I recognize not all sizing is inclusive”. And it’s like the mere fact of saying you recognize your privilege is enough and you’re off free because you’ve said you’re privileged. It’s not. Instead, use that privilege for something that’s more than performing and lining your own pockets.
So Anna is trying to show and perform she’s the most aware of her privilege by these meaningless statements when her actions totally contradict them.
I hope I’m making sense here. I’ve just noticed that with a certain group of white women they’re always trying to have what feels like an Olympic competition to see who recognizes their privilege the most and it’s so gross
Oh, and all the recommendations for books... obviously on the best seller/ popular lists written by non-white authors suddenly being in vogue, which ofcourse they will give glowing reviews. As you said it's so terribly performative and shallow. Heaven forbid they talk about discrimination that isn't "safe" and could lose them viewers or brand deals I am not here for it.I call it the performative privilege olympics and it comes up a lot in conversations that I have with white women.

I can’t believe how quickly she’s getting rid of that skirt!Is she selling her pyjamas separately as silk shirt and trousers? Is she taking the piss?

Lily has told she'll never wear it again -along with most of her wardrobe - once she's had Mark Jnr.I can’t believe how quickly she’s getting rid of that skirt!
She needs to get rid of something to justify her new purchase. Is a vicious cycleI’m surprised she sold those Failfull linen trousers. Looks like they would’ve been great for post-pregnancy
I kinda hope she gets back to her pre-baby body just to spite LilyLily has told she'll never wear it again -along with most of her wardrobe - once she's had Mark Jnr.
