A bit off course here but after someone here mentioned her eyes looking pinned to duck I can't help but notice in quite a few of her photos she has tiny pupils and the thousand yard stare look.
I don't see how/where/why she gets it published. She's not in an academic/research post, is she?I literally was thinking this all morning! I’m an ex member of the academy (As in i studied for a science degree).
How arrogant do you have to be to think that you have identified a gap in the literature when work psychologists have probably been researching this since 1994? She’s so delusional it’s actually quite funny
This was my first question on the old Vonny thread. It just means academia I think.What is “the academy” that she went on about? I missed some of that phase.

I hadn't realised before that she includes a copy of the video game Call of Duty in her "conflict studies" books...https://tattle.life/threads/vonny-leclerc.11419/post-2967547 This post addressed it...
I am a member of “The Academy” of sorts. That’s not how you write papers; even planning takes weeks and a hell of a lot of research. You can’t see a gap in the literature in a morning.
I asked my father in law who is a professor. The reply:I'm not a member of "The Academy" but if I understand correctly, in academia you don't just start out with a hypothesis and write a paper all about how your hypothesis is right? And doesn't academic work require you to at least add to the cumulative knowledge/literature base by idk maybe doing some research on it or something? Academic paper =/= opinion column.
And could someone please explain how there is a gap in the literature when she's posted a screenshot of some literature written about what she says there's a gap in the literature about?
Oh I've just realised she's posted a screenshot of her draft and not someone else's work!
Right. This has really annoyed me. She clearly has no idea what academics actually do. You don't submit your personal opinion to academic papers. You need to back up what you're saying with evidence. Insta story replies are not scientific evidence. She is shitting all over the scientific method.
She has several degrees though.I asked my father in law who is a professor. The reply:
"Does she have a PhD?"
Erm, no
"Wasting her time then"
That's that
Oh. *Adds Product Design Vonny to the list*Guys ............ she's leaving 'The Academy'. (Which is to say, her fixed term contract covering maternity leave is over). What will happen to her Paper?

I’m a manager, I’m sure there will be loads on here too. Such a broad term anyway if I ever leave my job I won’t say it was a pleasure to MANAGE them (it bleeping isn’t). I’ll say it was a pleasure to WORK with them (it bleeping isn’t)I can't help suspecting she wasn't actually managing a team...
Yes - absolutely. It's so conceited.I’m a manager, I’m sure there will be loads on here too. Such a broad term anyway if I ever leave my job I won’t say it was a pleasure to MANAGE them (it bleeping isn’t). I’ll say it was a pleasure to WORK with them (it bleeping isn’t)
Really tiny gripe but it just seems a bit as my mother would say “The big I am”
When I saw this earlier I was laughing at all the references to “my team”, she must be so important and in charge of so many people...Guys ............ she's leaving 'The Academy'. (Which is to say, her fixed term contract covering maternity leave is over). What will happen to her Paper?

I am fairly certain she said that she was scouted for the Scotland women’s team or something like that but had to cut her professional career short because...reasons?Do you remember Football Vonny? When she started wearing a team shirt in her selfies and commentating on the World Cup? I loved Football Vonny. One of the least on brand Vonnies we've seen so far.

View attachment 463370 ok I have more to say... talking about being ‘in the trenches’ when she’s been working from home on a website?! I’ll tell that to my partner who works in the NHS, sure they would love to swap! Shes actually got me annoyed now. Also imagine boasting about being a manager sure her ‘team’ are gutted to see her go

This one particularly annoyed me. Like most of her fads she jumped on women’s football as it was a hot topic what with our women qualifying for the World Cup. She’d never mentioned football once and all of a sudden she was an expert on it (sound familiar?) What irked me the most though was a tweet urging everyone to continue to support the women’s game after the World Cup by attending matches (I’m sure there was more but can’t remember) it was really condescending and she implied that she already did these things, when she absolutely did not.Do you remember Football Vonny?
