Hello,

I hope I’m not interfering here.

There were a few requests for a weekly thread, but the mods seem to have been busy elsewhere since then.

So I’m starting this thread, which might be used to replace the other general thread with thousands of comments.

If someone wants to become a mod to manage those threads, feel free to say it in the comments, I can reach out to admins to get you mods permissions.

Cheers

Edit: I am now a mod!

    I bring you CHAT GBT roast of Thebirdspapaya

    Thebirdspapaya? That account is basically the poster child for #BodyPositivity and #SelfLove, but with a filter so thick it might as well be a layer of SPF 100. It’s like she’s trying to convince us that every stretch mark is a badge of honor while making sure each one is perfectly lit and Instagrammable. And let’s talk captions-so long, they’re practically a novella. By the time you finish reading one, you’ve been inspired, enlightened, and slightly confused about why you started in the first place. It’s like she’s out to prove that even self-acceptance can be curated to perfection.

    Thebirdspapaya’s account is like the ultimate exercise in selective vulnerability. She’s all about “authenticity,” but it’s the kind that comes with a soft-focus filter and a carefully timed post. She’s mastered the art of curating her flaws, making them look just imperfect enough to be relatable but still pretty enough to get a brand deal.

    It’s like she’s weaponizing mental health struggles, turning every anxious thought or moment of self-doubt into content, complete with a perfectly posed selfie and a long-winded caption about “the journey.”

    She talks about embracing imperfections, but let’s be real-those imperfections are airbrushed to the point of being unrecognizable. It’s vulnerability as a marketing tool, wrapped up in pastel colors and inspirational quotes. She’s selling self-love like it’s a product you can buy in cute packaging, but the real message is that you need to work harder on your mental health if you’re not as beautifully broken as she is.

    After nearly a year of following Reddit and now this forum- I have finally unfollowed TBP. Between her mermaid photo shoot and her stretch mark comments and some videos going viral (the way she was so smug about this but also complaining) I’m done! Bye bye toxicity!

    All these pictures were taken by the same photographer. The first three were taken at the Knix swimsuit launch. It looks like Sarah has a completely different chest. Is it taped? Maybe. Boob filler? Maybe. It really doesn’t matter because this is the woman who says she’s trying to normalize bodies like her own but she rarely shows her real body and this creates such confusion for her loyal followers who gush in her comments. They’re now probably wondering how they can look the way she looks in her mermaid shoot but it’s all lighting and poses. Right?

    thrift shopping is “nostalgia browsing” to her. Though we know she never browses, this lady couldn’t go a day without making a purchase.

      Nostalgia browsing lmao. Who did she hear say that and then have to adopt it?

      They’re not building a bigger house but she keeps filling their house up with more crap daily that they will need a bigger house

            It’s amazing that there was no point where she thought, “no, I don’t need this. at all. neither does my kid.” It was just I WANT THAT

              Seriously, nobody needed that and Shane doesn’t speak up bc he’s clearly checked out/whipped. I hope so badly that L goes to some sort of school in a couple weeks so she can see life isn’t all about going shopping and buying things every day.

                Not likely. I don’t think they’d let L wear her body cam at school and Sarah needs that creepy content.

    Her fishing for compliments from her 3.5 year old is so weird. Like she is so desperate for anyone to tell her she’s pretty or beautiful. Shane probably never tells her so she has to turn to the Internet and force her little girl to say nice things on camera to her. She so self absorbed!!!

      I just watched it and it made me uncomfortable. It feels like she’s been programmed to compliment her mother. They are clearly outside and she’s wearing water wings but her mother is looking at pictures of herself. Why isn’t she interacting with her child. To get attention to has to look at pictures of her mother, again, and tell her she’s pretty. This child is growing up thinking the way you look is the most important thing.

        Right? Why is she looking at photos of herself while they’re out by the pool? Her sitting by the pool is just another chance to put on a new bikini and take photos of herself. She can’t just enjoy a day without making it allllllll about her. I can just imagine she told L beforehand “tell mommy how pretty she looks” and then L mimicked her like a parrot like they’ve taught her. I detest what she’s doing to he daughters, showing them that their looks are all that matters.

    Literally why does Reebok send her free shoes? This is a woman who can and does buy whatever she wants at all times and then gets free shoes sent to her. Make it make sense!!

    damn she really squeezed herself into this one, bet she’ll have marks all over her once she peels it off. Just because it’s on clearance doesn’t mean you should buy it if it isn’t your size!!!

    I have never seen ANYONE go on so goddamn much about having a photoshoot. Just say you love taking photos, why are you jumping through hoops to defend why you’re so obsessed with taking photos of yourself ALL THE TIME. Like holy shit we know you’re self obsessed and shallow, just post your photos and get the praise you’re desperately looking for.

    The photo she used to show on her grid tells you exactly what kind of attention she’s looking for

    sarah the ultimate Barbie (in her mind) wasn’t invited? I’m shocked. She’ll prob say she said no when we know she never says no to ditching her family.

        Nope nothing about it! I just felt like snooping around at Ariana and Renee and saw they were there.

          How funny would it be if these two cut TBP out? They are closer in age and both seem to actually parent their children so it makes sense. I followed Renee for a while and she doesn’t like to waste money so she isn’t into the shopping and acquiring culture. Arianna likes to bake and do things for her friends and that isn’t like Birdie so I could see these two, maybe, talking about Sarah and maybe questioning a few things.

    Cam you imagine the spiral when she can no longer say mom to teens and a toddler? Pretty soon it’s going to be mom to adults, a teen, and elementary? Her ego will explode when she has a 20 year old 🥳

    Nothing like putting your 3.5 year old to work on a Saturday to create some more POV content 🙄 I wonder if L even realizes what’s happening. Sarah prob just tells her it’s a decoration and not a camera.

      Even if L knows what is happening (shows her the video)she definitely cannot conceptualize “the internet is forever” impact of being exploited at 3 years old! Some of her followers are parasocial weirdos out there obsessing over that kid. Enough is enough.
