They are called quickies. As much as people hate on S, I’m here to always point out awful things influencers do for the planet and their lack of helping those facing genocide, discrimination etc.

That being said, Bailey’s company does help people with uteruses have body autonomy (have donated to help people access abortion care) and the company also donates to LGBTQIA2S causes.

This was not something that people had to ask for, this was something she did from the start. Will I ever buy the products? No. Do I think Bailey is someone who actually cares? Yes. So kudos to her and her donating and making a difference in people’s lives.

I realize that we all have to somehow take part in capitalism and a lot of things people can only get by going to big box, stores, or Amazon, but I always think it’s a big win for the planet and a loss for billionaires when influencers post less about consuming. I never actually want influencers to over consume and thereby influence others yo do the same. I’ll give credit where credit is due and I hope this is a trend that continues and that all the other shine people also stop pushing everyone to buy all the time. Little victories for the planet are little victories am I right? We need less fast fashion (instead let’s support local and small and NO s&t isn’t small) , more activism (or even some activism like speaking up for Sudan, DRC and Palestine, and trans kids) and less trips (local shops need influencers to give them business to drive business). When I see even small changes I HOPE they are moving to being more authentic (I won’t get my hopes up too much but you never know). Calling people out on snarks is the only way they can see what people think and it’s necessary to demand more from people on platforms.

This is what I love to read! People HAVE to call out S and her friends who legit get sponsored for being nobodies who post mediocre content littered with overspending and supporting products if slavery and genocide! They are posting brand or affiliate codes they got for being either pretty or cis women or friends of them, and they are doing nothing! Attend a protest! Boycott! Two FREE things they can do to help but they don’t. They don’t call out problematic friends who are a benefit to them which is exactly what politicians do.

Wait I missed this. She called people over 60 melted ice cream cones? Please tell me this is not true- I already dislike her but body shaming people over 60 is another huge red flag. Isn’t her mom who keeps HER child engaged and entertained all day over 60? Does she know what a privilege it is to still be alive over 60 and for people her age to still have their parents? Please let me know what she actually said. I am so furious right now hearing this is something she said.

Dannah has said (in previous videos) that kids shouldn’t be featured online , that you should never post where you are or what your kids names are, when you’re on vacation or when you’re coming back, no names on clothing, no telling strangers your name. Maybe Nana is trying to be passive aggressive about her daughter to improve her grandkids safety? Nobody can be so stupid as to not notice that everything about what is posted with the kids is a stupid and careless post that ignores their safety.

As someone who played it when my kid was younger, I will warn you that when you are friends with people on the app, you send gifts that you get from poke stops (like parks you visited). It basically announces to friends (or in her case to strangers) where you have been or where you frequent. She’s adding randos from the internet. This is so unsafe. Yes let’s announce the parks and stops we all make WITH KIDS to STRANGERS. This is so stupid. It’s a fun game, but like be smart about it!
