    Am I crazy thinking it’s wild to put your kid in residence when there is a housing shortage for students and she has not 1 but 2 houses to live in locally.

      I’m kind of happy for her to get away from TBP influence. Once she gets an education and learns about the world a bit more (not that she needs University for that but it’ll help) she’s going to catch on to how unhealthy that dynamic is. I hope she gets to explore the world away from online exploitation surrounding her.

      More like 4 because she probably could live with Nana K if she wanted, and they have that apartment in the basement of her own house.

      Hmmm…we don’t know where she’s going but some schools strongly recommend (if not mandatory) that 1st year students live on campus. If she is going to an art school proximity to studio time might also be important.

      And, I’m sure there is a good reason why M would want to be on her own. I bet M feels free and safe outside of the house she lives in with Sarah.

          I have to agree. There’s a real housing crisis in Guelph, especially first years. Taking a spot when you live in the city and can easily commute takes a spot from someone else who doesn’t have the option to commute. At its peak the housing waitlist was 1356 I believe, mostly first years. Parents had a hard time finding off campus housing and many had to go elsewhere. I wouldn’t expect TBP to care about that though. Ideally they would just have enough residence spots for everyone though but apparently can’t count on Guelph to care about that either.

            It’s pretty disgusting. Imagine all the students who are absolutely stressing about a place to live or how they will even be able to afford it if they can manage it.

            I totally agree. If she really wanted the experience of living separately they could have converted the basement apartment for her. Taking public transit at ungodly hours is part of going to university, and would have been doable. It really showcases how much they don’t have to worry about money, otherwise M probably would have chosen one of her multiple living options to avoid accumulating even more debt. I absolutely would have if I had gone to school in the same city as my parents instead of having to pay off all my student loans until I was almost 40. There are a lot of kids who have to delay going to school this year because they can’t afford the living accommodations on top of school tuition.

            Edit to add: I was paying back that many years for a degree that I didn’t even finish. Talk about wasted money.

                I was 😂! One thing about our Lenny page that I like is that it does seem a little less intense. You informed me kindly to keep me in the know. On the Reddit page every once and a while if you posted something not everyone agreed with it felt like fellow snarkers were coming at me. I didn’t like that part because we were all part of the community for a reason and us being united felt important. When we were intolerant of different ideas it just seemed we were as bad as Sarah and her clique.

                Just something positive to share about everyone who’s come over here. 💕

              Tuition is about the same here. Residence looks like 6500-11,000 at Guelph depending on the room type. On top of that you also have to buy a mandatory meal plan for most residences (I think there are 1 or 2 you don’t need to because they have shared kitchens). Tuition is about 8000 but from my understanding that would be waived in this case as she has a parent who works at the University.

      The “she” who booked it was the mother feeling guilty for leaving all the back to school running around to others. The “she” who booked it wants to be seen as the ‘fun’ parent and not the one who makes them get organized for the upcoming school year. The ‘she’ who booked it wants everyone to say how great she is for doing this after such a hard, big career, work trip!

      Yet another face palm moment for this person. I’m not sure how it is in Ontario, but in BC, water parks aren’t exactly cheap. To not only complain about having to go after her nonsense, selfish trip, then to imply about how the trip she booked to spend with her kids is an inconvenience, is so fucking tone deaf. I’m sure most families would kill to not only have had a trip away, but to also be able to afford to go to a water park. I’m sure this is also another “content” outing: “look at me! Look at my kids! We’re in bathing suits! I’m shilling this suit, you know!” Gross.

        It was actually a super ghetto place, that’s run down and they’ll probably end up with a rash anyways, but I get your point. What really bothers me is, they’re taking video, not only of themselves, but other peoples children, in bathing suits, to a public profile that’s known for getting her own kids on x rated sites. I know it’s a public place, but she didn’t even put an emoji over other kids faces or blur them. It’s classless and completely inconsiderate of other people and their right to privacy for their children.

    Some thoughts I have:

    1. I think it’s weird she’s this dramatic about her daughter who’s only with her 50% of the time moving out but in the SAME CITY!?
    2. it’s a new day so that’s yesterdays problem and she’ll never talk about being sad again because it’s a new day and a new theme for her
    3. if I was crying as much as she seemed to be/said she was then I would look like utter death today. Maybe I am just unlucky but no amount of make up, pads (lol), or cold spoons could un puff my eyes. So I call BS on her crying and this proves her use of filters and photoshop.

    Thats all 😂

          I’m so happy she’s finally made it onto the Guelph reddit page!! The more traction this gets the better.

          ETA: one commentator on the post made me think it was Shane for a hot second. I even looked at their comments elsewhere and lots of magic the gathering stuff, etc. but other posts of theirs steered me off of thinking it was Shane.

          Also if someone has the shrinking Shane video, you should post it on the guelph Reddit post!

        This is how I feel. Her over the top drama performance over her kid going to school 10 mins away is simply far too much. I feel like she’s making her loyal flock think her daughter has gone off to university far away and it’s legit the hardest thing she’s ever done, when in reality she’s just down the road. Like you said, she has no issue saying yes to every event that takes her away from her kids but god forbid her daughter go off to university without her having the worst acting performance of all time over it. Like get a grip honestly. She needs attention so badly, that’s why she acts like this because she just wants people flooding her inbox with words of sympathy.

    “A little more grey” basically her shitting on her husband since she’s obviously not talking about herself little miss 5 hour hair appointments. Can’t move her face. Massive inflated lips. Refuses to age. Filters herself to look skinnier. At least he’s real as much as I say he’s a slob. Like she doesn’t even look like herself ffs.

    (Nothing wrong with dying hair to get rid of greys, I do it myself!!! Just felt her “little more grey” comment was unnecessary when she’s clearly not referring to herself here).

      I also wonder what her big anniversary gift was since everyone is gonna freak out apparently! Why does she thinks everyone is going to freak out over what she spent more money on when most are having a hard time getting by and likely don’t even buy anniversary gifts for their significant others to save money. Just a way to make us feel guilty for not being as extravagant as she is.

      I find this entire episode so performative. She isn’t going away to university. She is in the same city and she doesn’t even live with her full-time as it is so nothing is really changing. If this university offered guaranteed residence to all first year students I would have no problem with a local kid moving in but this doesn’t seem to be the case at this university. Does Birdie have any idea how parents of those kids who don’t live in the city must feel with their 17-year-old is really leaving home and they now have to find them a place to live as well as set them up to really fend for themselves off campus? She doesn’t care. The fact M is taking up space and planning to spend weekends with her parents makes it even worse!

    She just publically shared private conversations she had with M and what she did on her first night at school. (unless Sarah made it up-also plausible) The audacity to publically share that for content. She sinks to a new low every day.

    This whole story about how her followers sending messages about how talented M is after she shared this photo from the school showing is what made M take the leap to apply for school is bs. She had already been accepted into her program at this point in time. I think I’m remembering this correctly. Birdie is making her followers feel a part of M’s journey and strengthening that parasocial relationship she counts on for her income.

      I was thinking the EXACT same thing but was too lazy to go back and check timestamps! At the very least, she would have already applied by then. Also Studio Arts at that particular school is a program that requires no portfolio so technically even inexperienced artists have a shot as well to work on their skill.

    This spread of Ilona is so amazing, and I’m so glad she’s being celebrated. She’s worked her ass off and dealt with so much ACTUAL hate over her body but doesn’t have anything to prove. Of course, all bodies deserve to be celebrated, but she is real body positivity to me. I also love the points being made. I bet it’s killing B that she wasn’t championed like this. Except for those for pay Yahoo articles.

    I’m shocked Sarah didn’t have a waterpark made up story “I was just relaxing at the park and a woman came up to me in a two piece swimsuit and told me she’s so inspired by me and I’m the reason she felt confident enough to show up at the waterpark in a two piece. This is why I do what I do” lol

    Don’t wanna be that d*ck person and I am ALL for shading her, but by the looks of the most recent thread about M and school, both M and the ex husband have been doxxed. I know TBP did it to M herself, but continuing it on is not helping. Knowing the ex also wants to keep a private life, outing where he works is kinda dumpy, regardless of a simple google search.

    Ok I was looking for something waaaaayyy back in her timeline and I came across these two photos.

    On the left: she has actually pulled her bathing suit up her ass! So fucking stupid.

    On the right: WHY? What the actual fuck? What mother puts her bathing suit clad young children on the Internet? I can’t even believe how ridiculously irresponsible this is. I am not a paranoid or alarmist person but this is INSANE! there’s another pic where faces Are visible. Omfg!!! I’m truly horrified.

      I fully agree with you but can you censor them out and repost the pic with them blurred or painted over? Want to make sure we’re not inadvertently contributing to the issue!

    Not on a current topic… But talking about stocks with my husband tonight gave me a 💡… Does anyone know when TBP “allegedly” bought into Kni×? Follow up: Is anyone/ does anyone have contacts in the finance world to ask if there would be any…conflicts: Kni× was sold in 2022. I don’t want to say the actual words, because I may be reaching.
