[00:00:00]Hello everyone. If you're catching the replay, welcome. I'm Steve. Mark's around. Say hi Mark.

[00:00:08]Where'd you get dill pickle dip?

[00:00:10]And this is Smokeoky Steve and Mark and a bag of chips. Welcome or welcome back.

[00:00:15]And happy Thursday. My Friday >> for the drips. Thank you.

[00:00:23]>> Thank you. Get me a diet of Pepsi.

[00:00:27]So, I hope everyone's well. Well, I hope everyone is safe. It is actually dill pickle bip. This is very tasty. So, um, we can all find common ground, can't we?

[00:00:36]So, I'm going to check in today with our fair lady. I believe she's on right now.

[00:00:42]Um, we checked in just a few days ago, so she was in the middle of the great reset. The great reset. A I didn't mean to be demanding. Thank you. I was going to throw it. You were I Yeah. Well, I'm glad you changed. Yeah. The camera's on.

[00:00:56]You guys don't know what he does when the camera's off. You don't know what happens off camera.

[00:01:00]>> Okay, believe that.

[00:01:02]>> Where's my paper clips?

[00:01:05]>> Do you need your phone?

[00:01:07]>> I have my phone.

[00:01:08]>> No. To watch the [ __ ] live.

[00:01:10]>> Um, you can grab it. Maybe I'll use it.

[00:01:11]>> All right.

[00:01:12]>> Anyway, back to what I'm supposed to be doing and paying attention to here. So, um, hi from Mark. Hi to all of you. All of you coming in. Um, we did have some nice weather today. It was almost a little chilly for a hot second, but the sun's out. Um, just nice. It's not going to get any more freezes coming through.

[00:01:31]We had our last freeze or frost a few nights ago, so I think we're pretty much in the clear with that. So, I'm hopeful.

[00:01:38]Tried to go out at lunch today at work to get some air and some vitamin D. Uh, I only have a half hour for lunch at work and it's a working lunch, so I don't really leave the campus as such that we have. I just go for a walk in and around it all the way. So that's that was the fun I had. And then I came home and then I got my foodie notes together and then I made a cup of decaf that I don't think I want anymore cuz it's like it's kind of lukewarm.

[00:02:09]So I got a soda from the hubby.

[00:02:14]Okay. He can't find my other phone.

[00:02:16]That's what it is. It's okay. So, last we checked in, we were talking about Foody's great reset, that she was going to be taking a position now of um looking after her health, looking after her food choices. May 1 was supposed to be the day it all happened. We are now on the 7th. Um a person with ambition in one full week maybe could have lost a fair amount of weight, but she kept putting it off for reasons they're not unclear. She just didn't want to do it. Um, and she'll fain sick to cover the laziness. So, you know, on one end you think Shantel fakes sick to get attention and pity from others. And that's one of one of the reasons, but she also gets to get out of doing [ __ ] So, um, and science comes up with something better, you have to work out.

[00:03:06]They unless they can turn up the metabolism from ceiling, if that counts as a form of cardio, maybe she'd have a a shot. But no. uh talked a little bit about Nat because he he in inserted himself in a girl world. Um and the questions of whether or not he was a side lover or you know someone that she was seeing maybe on the side. Hey folks coming in. Hey Claudia Leslie I see y'all. So um is he someone she's seeing?

[00:03:34]She says never would I ever. I wouldn't never. Where'd you go when you had the car?

[00:03:40]So, it's nobody's business, but then she makes it everyone's business. But as soon as she's done talking about it, anyone who still is is looking for drama. So, she can drop a trauma bomb into the middle of that bucket of borderline, she calls a chat. And unless everybody's like with her, she feels neglected, ignored, you guys don't whatever for me. She's getting paranoid lately about getting trolled. And I I don't know. People who try to get close to her, who feain friendship and then after that turn their back and do something. I don't know. A lot of internet drama, like girl world type drama. I didn't even go to a high school this petty. It's just very different than than what I grew up with. Um but I do like it here. I've been here long. So happy to be live. Lurker then replay.

[00:04:33]Happy to have you, Janet. Thank you lurkers for showing up. I know it's a short notice, but we appreciate you being here and mods and commenters and folks. Um, last of behind after the nater thing, we talked about registering yourself as disabled, resigning to being disabled, getting out ahead of it. I might need a jazzy one day. I might need a scooter. Let's get it now. I can still technically walk, but I'd be more comfortable if I didn't, you know?

[00:05:06]Yeah, I think well things though. I think two things about the video of the alleged back of her head. First, of course, she would do it. Second of all, he's a scumbag for sharing pictures of any woman that he was being intimate with in any position. Um, he's shot a fire across her nose when he sent out the pic of her kick kissing his calf, holding his foot and kissing his calf.

[00:05:29]Um, I'm sure it wasn't something she planned to use for a thumbnail, but that kind of stuff gives ammo. Some people in relationships, even just friendships, they collect things over time. They gather evidence. They're ready for you to [ __ ] them over because they've already thought about how they're going to get back at you.

[00:05:47]Shantel, of course, thinks Salah is cheating as he's lucky to have her, but she thinks he might be cheating or doing something else. Because she's convinced herself that he's doing it, she's also given herself permission to do it. Cuz whether he is or isn't, she believes he is, which means she also believes she can go do what she wants, too.

[00:06:08]You know, there's nothing wrong with two people who maybe they were, maybe they weren't exes hooking up. It's not a commitment I honor, but it's one I thought she was supposed to honor. It's her handsomest husband right up until she needs some of that green peen. And then it's, "Oh, guys, I'll drive myself home without talking." The woman leaves her stream on to [ __ ] If she's shutting it off, it's because she's going somewhere she doesn't want people to know. And she's allowed to have a life like that. But when your behavior is out of the usual, out of the normal for her, whatever that is, people notice, you know, people observe. People take guesses as to why does this not look quite right? What does this pattern mean? What could it mean? I'm sure Shantel didn't mean to have her life dissected like this, but you know what?

[00:06:50]If you're going to make six grand a month, deal.

[00:06:54]So, um, yeah, her being disabled and then her slowly becoming more housebound. She didn't want to go out cuz it would be on the scooter and she didn't want to be too far from her own bathroom, which means not going too far in any sort of direction. Now, it's not news. Shantel does not, as you know, look out for herself in terms of self-care. Um, you know, she doesn't plan to change her health. She plans to go out less and consider undergarments.

[00:07:24]There's some things that are irreversible. There's some things that happen when you get old, you know, or when you get fat and old. There's not that many 400 lb women over 50.

[00:07:34]You know what I mean? I don't expect her to feel good about changing, but what's the alternative? As of late, she's had kind of a tone to her voice, like her life was a waste and and I can't walk anymore. I'm too fat and and all this kind of stuff that's meant to make you compliment her. She's going to lay it out there like she's cashing out. So, you'll give her encouragement to keep going and it's not the like supportive encouragement. I don't know. It's kind of hard to explain, but depending on what her goal is, she will frame the conversation differently. Yeah, Mark throwing stuff at me, it really is still pickle dip.

[00:08:14]Yeah, for the amount of money she can sit down and do next to nothing. I mean, and views are slipping for her.

[00:08:21]Definitely on kick, but also on YouTube, she had views that were like comparable to ours, you know, so many years ago when I was doing foodie once a week, but I was doing a full recap. So, you could tune in to the channel to see every sol single solitary thing that happened all week. Um, we went a different direction because I was giving up too many Saturdays to a cause like that. Love YouTube. No problem making a video, but a video about her is a little more nuanced, I would say.

[00:08:51]Maybe on a members one, we can have one where it's like Mark and I run our mouths about our real thoughts about Foodie Beauty and see who would show up for that. So, so going into this week, she's attempting to make some small changes in her diet. So, we're not going to go big with health. We're not going to go over the top and try too hard. We're going to just make little changes because little changes aren't difficult. They're also easier to abandon, though. You know, I think it would be, for example, I'm not a dietician. I'm not a doctor. I'm not a kinesiologist, but I live in a human body and so does she. So, some things apply to all of us. If she could get up and move 10 minutes a day, that's it. No more. Not 10 today and 40 tomorrow. 10.

[00:09:36]Four times a week for a month. That's all. No more, no less. Just check off the box like you would go to the bathroom. I would say shower, but check it off like a just like any other activity. And be done with it. And then that's just part of your day. Now you just when you get up, you have your 500 calorie crappuccino and then go for a stroll. There's nothing that going for a short walk would hurt. I can appreciate that it's probably hurting her to walk, but that doesn't mean give up. I mean, it does, but it says more about her to say, you know what? It's too hard to try to work on getting better. I'm just going to take the feet right out from under me and just decide to just roll around.

[00:10:22]No doctor prescribed a jazzy to her. Uh, I always call them jazzies because I worked for Hey Band a thousand years ago doing data processing and they sold all those old lady and old man polyester pants in the newspaper and there was a similar catalog um that called gold violin that actually had a fair amount of products for people who were older. It had things like some of the stuff Mark has like the Swedish reacher um the ergonomic garden tools like all that all that kind of stuff.

[00:10:50]So, aside from her taking small steps, it's the only small steps. Um, she was spotted in public. So, someone caught her in her natural habitat or and God lover, it was so sad. If she weren't such a nightmare of selfishness, I'd almost feel like reaching out and being like, "Hey." So, Shantel, we see her from here up most of the time. We all know he's she's large. We don't know how large. And depending on what she's wearing, she can look giga. Like totally. Shantel is a petite 5'1.

[00:11:25]So her carrying around 350 lbs would be someone 5'5 or 5'6 carrying like 450 or so. So not so much. But she was spotted. It was Shantel Gucci who's been doing some snipes in the relatively recent past. Um like you know uh what the [ __ ] is his name? Pulpy is always he was on now. he might be on now um to give updates and things like that. So, they were talking about the street festival thing that Shantel went to. She announced she was going to and this other streamer said, "I'm going to be at the same thing." Now, she didn't go because Shantel's going. She's going because it's a cool event and it's there. But she caught a picture of Shantel riding her scooter through the crowd. It's worse than I imagined.

[00:12:15]It's And then she will be self-righteous. I can't see what people are staring at.

[00:12:20]I'm just trying to live my life. You're not living this life. You're stuck here.

[00:12:25]You're stuck here with opinions and attitudes and airbrushing and filters and all that [ __ ] The rest of the world is this way, that way, and some over there.

[00:12:35]So yeah, maybe for the image she wants to create on her channel, she's out and social and everyone should be very proud of her for being humble enough to use a mobility device that a doctor did not prescribe. That a doctor did not prescribe. You can get it to get around easier, but if someone were to say, you know, shelter says, I can't walk. Are you disabled? Well, no. Well, you can't walk. Left to your own devices, would you be dead in a month? Probably. There are certain criteria for having someone go into a hospital against their will.

[00:13:08]It's very difficult to take someone out of the community for a mental health reason if they haven't broken a law. And it should be difficult to get someone off the streets without committing a crime. This is that's America, you know.

[00:13:22]Um I digress. Anyway, um being spotted in public and her freaking out about it or having opinions about it was like really no big deal. It did look like fun. She went around and talked to her chat the whole time. This is the closest thing I was with Mark. Oh my god. If you have our um if you're a member in the in the yearbook community post that we put up, there's one of Mark in New York. I remember why we were in New York and we were standing in front of one building and and had the picture taken and and it was nice. Oh, the 9/11 thing. That's where it was. That's where it was. It was front of the 9/11 memorial. And um had Mark with me and he was walking around on his phone like this. We're in, you know, because he was just discovering GPS so that you could see us from space as we were walking. And he's walking around like this, fascinated. I'm like, pick your [ __ ] head up. You know, New York is not far. I could be there in a couple hours. It's not a big distance from Scranton, but um you know, he was missing life to look at his phone. So many times I'll watch like concerts from the audience perspective or anything like that. And it's always interesting to see who's stuck to their phone watching it and who's just watching it.

[00:14:42]You know, when Mark and I went to go see Stevie Nicks, he took some pictures and videos and I snapped a couple, but I wasn't filming the entire concert to bring home and watch later. I was right there. She was right there. So, I don't want to be like, "Oh, oh, anti-technology, it ruins art and arts for art's sake and commerce can go [ __ ] itself." Not, not quite. Not quite. But, so being spotted in public, she's a public figure. Her words, she's a public figure. you lose a certain expectation of privacy, at least in the US. Um, laws like that are a little bit different.

[00:15:17]People talk about slander and and liable and and documented losses. Like, if you're going to sue me for something, what what has your channel lost because of me? What did I do that made your channel tank? So, if she wants to be famous, that's the breaks. If you want to be if you want people to know who you are and you want people to see you, she wants it all on her terms. And when she's alone in her apartment and it's just this and she can shut you all off like that and banish you from the kingdom and you are no longer a beaser.

[00:15:49]Be gone all of you.

[00:15:52]That's her pretending that she has some control in her life. That's her throwing around weight in a space that she feels superior. You see her out in public and somebody stares and she has like that whole, well, what kind of person would stare?

[00:16:06]I'm just living my life. Get the [ __ ] out of here. 400 pound woman in a too small scooter. As long as we're being honest, too small of a scooter riding around with parts of her flesh sticking out. So that's someone who either doesn't understand how bad it looks, who knows how bad it looks and they don't care or she's just given up, you know?

[00:16:27]Is she she's not trying to get healthier? She bought a machine so she wouldn't have to walk. The only way to get to walk more often is to walk more often, you know? I mean, and I've been fat, so it's not a question. Was she like this when she was doing her mukbangs? Was she constantly saying, "I don't know what to do, guys." I said, and others of course have said precoid, her entire channel is about her deciding what to make her channel about. She turns her life into content such that it's a life. That's why people get bored and leave. But, you know, Steve Milty and Sansa Cook should do a collab.

[00:17:03]They're most intelligent of reactors.

[00:17:05]That's flattering. Thank you very much.

[00:17:07]There's some really sharp folks that are in girl world. They have like really good insight and some of them have a lot of experience and some of them are parents so they can relate to immature behavior when they're talking about Shantel. Um, I look at our demographics.

[00:17:22]I see who's out there when I look at the numbers. Um, nine out of 10 of you are women. The bulk of you are between 25 and 55. Um, and that's kind of the the cut. It's like the oldest millennials, the Xenial, which I am, and then the Gen Xers above that. And they tend to be the most chill demographic that I know from my circles of friends and from working online. So, um, Shantel insinuating that she has something like a stalker because she was seen in public. There's no assumption of privacy in public, and especially you want to be a public figure, but on your own terms. then you need to get someone to do some PR to spin your behavior into something likable. She doesn't want to be famous just for anything. And I'll give her credit for that. She doesn't necessarily want to be a famous train wreck, but she'll settle for it. You know, she would love to get attention for doing something helpful and and admirable, but all she needs is eyes on her. And if she'll make more as a mess than she will as a success, she'll just stay sick.

[00:18:24]She'll live in a filthy house. I was looking through some photos somebody had sent me and they had caught a a corner of the room of one of the other rooms at her apartment filled with trash. There are people that hoard trash, but again, let's not put a mental health diagnosis on being a lazy [ __ ] You not everything has to have a code for it. Not everything is so deep and complicated.

[00:18:48]Clean your [ __ ] house. We'll talk about why you didn't want to after, but for now, clean your house.

[00:18:56]And, you know, taking care of ourselves is something we're all responsible for.

[00:19:01]You know, to get the help we need to ask for the help we need. Um, if she's not able to comfortably maneuver around or bathe herself as much as she would like or do the laundry, there are services that support people like that. But again, I feel like that's Shantel getting out ahead of disability, saying, "It's invariable that I'm going to be bedbound. Why bother walking anymore?

[00:19:23]It's just going to make that further away from me." So, what she got, you think it was a reasonable accommodation, but she got the she got it to do less.

[00:19:33]She didn't take it anywhere that didn't involve food or um edibles or or anything like that. Um, she still insists on riding in the road on her scooter because she's it's I'm sure it's more comfortable than the sidewalk, but get out of the road. Uncomfortable doesn't mean they have to understand.

[00:19:51]They're going to need to understand what it's like for me. Are you just saying this because I'm disabled or about cuz I'm Muslim.

[00:19:59]Look, officer said just get off the road. It's not that difficult. You are not a car.

[00:20:05]You are not. So, you don't belong there.

[00:20:08]And if you have limit, that's why they call them limitations. There's only certain things you can do. You can expand your limitations with certain devices and supports and people and and that kind of stuff. But she's just resigned. She's hit life by gen territory. My opinion, me, I, me, Steve.

[00:20:26]She's getting towards that. I'm not saying she's dying. I'm just saying that the the resignation of this is just how it's going to be for me. She doesn't have a plan of how to stop like what's the end date? I'm gonna stop using the scooter on in a month from now. What do we do to get ourselves ready to be able to ditch the scooter in a month? I think she'd be surprised with herself at how quick stamina can build up for simple stuff just like walking back and forth.

[00:20:52]When she first moved into the apartment, there's a Walmart across the way. Not a very far walk and she had to stop eight times again. Shantel, my breathing is bad. No, you're 300 250 lbs overweight.

[00:21:06]You know, and you can say, well, there's plenty of skinny people with breathing problems. Yeah, but they don't develop them after taking four steps, maybe five, and then turn purple. You know, it's not the case. And to act like she's not predisposed to a bunch of [ __ ] because of her weight is naive. Most of her health problems are of her own exacerbation. You know, she probably didn't I'm sure she didn't go, "Man, I hope I get clots in my uh area down here. Man, I hope I can't walk much.

[00:21:33]Maybe I'll get MRSA. Maybe I'll get another boil on my back. Maybe I'll get another boil on my So, but she This isn't a person at this point who's looking to improve their life, you know? They're just looking to if I can't get any attention, I'll take bad attention, I guess.

[00:21:52]You're 59. She's 40. She's younger than me. Like 42, 41. I don't think she thinks that far ahead of keeping it up.

[00:21:59]I think she she goes from the next bite to the next vape to the next joint. And as long as she keeps herself kind of cozily intoxicated, um, then life's bearable. When you take away food and you take away any substance she's going to use, she loses her [ __ ] She'll say then after she loses said [ __ ] "I need to see a doctor. It's just I don't know what I do. I just get so upset sometimes." She blows up and yells and says nasty things to people who care about her. And when she decides she doesn't feel bad about it anymore, you shouldn't either. Shantel does not say I'm sorry in any apology that I've ever seen her deliver on a community post ever.

[00:22:45]So, we're the cool kids. I don't know what they're doing over on Tik Tok with the youngans. Actually, Tik Tok isn't for the youngans and it hasn't been for 10 years.

[00:22:55]So, no, she does not have a stalker. You know what would be closer to a stalker?

[00:23:01]That troglodite with her hood up who conveniently rolled around the corner and was ready to take Shantel home when her scooter broke. In another place, I would think that she like disabled the scooter so Shantel would have to stop so she could be a hero and run and save her. And, you know, Shantel's not too proud to beg. Would it be safe to get in a car with someone you don't know who says they're a viewer? Shantel said she knew the person to reassure everybody.

[00:23:27]But uh no, you're right, Seth M. She hasn't really had accountability. The closest thing she had to accountability, I mean, people don't expect much from her. Expectations are very low. I think her family's like, you know, we can invite her for a Thanksgiving, but she's not going to come, so why don't we just not invite her anymore? And then it turns into my family cut me off because they don't accept my lifestyle.

[00:23:50]What lifestyle?

[00:23:52]What is there to defend? Clean your [ __ ] apartment. Get a shower and do something other than eat for the next 2 hours. We all need to eat.

[00:24:02]There's no getting around it. And if you were addicted to food, I would say, you know, addiction's hard. It takes some of the thinking out of your hands. You know, I have the recovered but addict sort of mind myself. And so the stuff she does that she thinks is slick, I identify as [ __ ] And if you've had family or friends who are her kind of personality or anyone who's dealt with addiction, she has a lot of those isms that go with it or cysts like narcissist or icks like histrionic or or other stuff like that. So anyway, I think how she'll deal with who she thinks her stalker is who's sniping Shantel will say, "Cam up. Cam up. I'm better looking than you. Cam up. Cam up." Just because a person doesn't cam up, it doesn't mean they're uglier than Shantel. They might just not want to embarrass her by how attractive they are. You know, thinking about future stuff, I just I don't know. She does the Christmas presents. We all remember the year at the villa. Or do we? I'll bring you guys into the fold if you didn't. Christmas time. She was making an ass ton of money. She could have bought her mother a new car. She could have bought her Shantel was making a lot and paying taxes on none of it. So, it was a ton of money. She bought THC products and alcohol for everyone in her family and then skipped Christmas. So, she kept it all for herself.

[00:25:30]Uh, how generous. Don't they have shipping? I mean, I guess you really can't ship liquor and edibles. Maybe in Canada, but that was what she bought for everybody. Like, are you [ __ ] Why don't you Oh, guys, I'm making dinner.

[00:25:42]Did you make something we might all like? No, but I like it. So, I thought you'd like it. And since I can't see you, I'm just going to take care of it now.

[00:25:56]It is Bey. It is a repetition. What's interesting, not necessarily that she changes, but the crowd reaction to her changes over time. Um, she can't get out of head. She block report block. That's activity. That's people talking. Maybe they're not saying the nicest thing, but if you're just turning down activity because you only want to hear the nice stuff. You only want to hear the funny, flattering stuff. Yeah, I don't disagree. Be I tried to I Okay, the same way I watch Shantel is kind of how I watch the news on mute and I put the subtitles on because Shantel's voice irritates the hell out of me sometimes.

[00:26:36]And that's not her. There's a lot of voices that irritate me because I'm irritable. Don't confuse that. Me being irritable means you're irritating me.

[00:26:47]You know, she tries to pull that [ __ ] with the staff or her staff. The bezers staff flew out too easy. So, so let me see what else we got here.

[00:26:58]Yeah, being famous. Isn't that the point? to be a big deal on YouTube to get that 100K and then hope nobody finds out what kind of stuff you actually do for a living. You know, the right person won't care. The right person's going to love her just like this.

[00:27:15]She has been thrown a lot of label. I'm familiar because I have a very big personal interest in psychiatry and and mental health. I do it for work, but I'm not a I'm not a not certainly not a prescribing professional, but I'm not a diagnosing professional. So, I couldn't tell you off of my, you know, dime store opinion what's going on with her. Um, based on life experience, which all of us have, um, Shantel, her personality is is the big issue. It's her approach to life. It's how she looks at things and how she kind of makes priorities and thinks about responsibility.

[00:27:54]Um, all that kind of stuff. She just doesn't do that. That's not for her.

[00:28:00]Mm- She's very, very volatile. Very volatile when she's pissed. I mean, and when we're getting close to her sitting outside of Nat's place blasting music, I mean, that's there's a lot. That's most normal people wouldn't do that. Even if they did have a disagreement with their partner, they wouldn't go act out afterwards, get the cops to come so you can try to force your way. Who the [ __ ] does that? Like that is so not the kind of person who can point fingers and say your behavior is unacceptable. It's not.

[00:28:31]She'll say it was forever ago. That's the sad part. She hasn't really changed.

[00:28:37]She really hasn't. She's older. The audience has changed. I've watched reactors come and go over the long term.

[00:28:44]Um yeah, yeah, she's mowing their lawn. At least there's a nice smell coming off cut grass. that.

[00:28:55]Oh, you're fine.

[00:28:59]Okay. So, what else do we have here?

[00:29:02]Okay. So, French Fried Girl in comparing Shantel having a stalker, the person who followed her versus like French Fried Girl. I would say French fried girl meeting Shantel at the runway modeling event was a little creepier to me than the other um Shantel Gucci who was just attending the same event and saw someone she recognized. People who are public figures get recognized. It's public, you know. And I think my only guess is that she has that kind of reality TV look at autobiography. Like she'll nip and cut and add things to this and remove this from a story and tell this.

[00:29:44]She just it's all like fantasy. Poor thing sits home and just doom scroll.

[00:29:49]Well, she doesn't doom scroll. She doesn't care what happens to anyone else. She's not doom scrolling because she's unbothered. So yes, Kathy, I agree. If you don't want to be, it's, you know, you might say, "Oh, I'm an internet person. I'm a YouTube celebrity or or this or that."

[00:30:06]Um, no. YouTube's a big deal, but she's not a big deal on YouTube. She's big in our little community, but I mean, as far as people who make real content or who have reactors or or other stuff like that, I mean, it's just a very different vibe.

[00:30:22]Her chats now have become on kick especially boring. very boring. And not even that she's talking about boring stuff, she's just not speaking. She's spending a lot of time just staring at the phone and waiting for the chat to prompt her with directions of what to talk about or let's talk about food. So, the chat is coming up with ideas for themselves of things she should talk about, and she's still turning it down.

[00:30:46]Not only can she not have an original idea, she won't even entertain somebody else's cuz it wasn't her idea. So yeah, with her, I never touched Amber as far as content. I think when I started doing foodie, we're talking 2018, I guess, I did one or two videos comparing them based on how much I knew about each one at the time. I knew they had a lot in common. I didn't know Amber's freaking history of relationships and and caretakers and wipes and all that [ __ ] that goes with her. She's having a bad few days anyway from what I understand. Poor Amber. Poor nothing.

[00:31:23]Poor nothing. These are folks who've had it too good for too long and they don't understand they still have it better than a lot of people. So crying poor is insulting.

[00:31:36]Yeah, she's not prepared for aging.

[00:31:38]Again, that's why the only reason I give it the Life by Jen thing is like she's getting resigned.

[00:31:44]you know, every bit of effort says she doesn't give a [ __ ] She can talk a good game and she can plan a great one, but when the rubber hits the road, she can't do it. And so, after so many times of, you know, you probably get sick of people saying, "How are you doing?

[00:31:58]You're working on your weight. You're working on your health." Because when food's your fix, everybody can see.

[00:32:04]Unless you're maybe bulimic, you could hide it under a normal body. But people that undereat or overeat, when food's your fix, everyone can tell. There's usually no mysteries. There's diagnosis that can make it harder to lose weight and easier to gain. I'm thinking like PCOS. There's medications you can take that make you a little hungry or fat or insulin resistant. That's where I find myself at the moment. Um, you know, so it's a thing. Uh, let's see. No assumption of privacy, public feeler, public figure in her real life. She's not the brand of product people want.

[00:32:42]She doesn't really have a brand per se, but if I was cold, didn't know her, and she came up in my feed and I watched a woman for an hour and 50 minutes stare at her phone and wait for people to ask.

[00:32:55]Like, every day is Q&A. Every day is Q&A. And she uses it's not enough. She can't even switch to look at chat GBT if she needs anything. What's the address of this restaurant? Do they serve kosher food there? And as one, the Borg decide that they all get together and answer her questions. Can somebody do this for me? Cuz like they're all her personal assistant. Everyone gunning to be teardrop.

[00:33:20]I don't know what's worse.

[00:33:23]Being teardrop or being jealous of teardrop. It's a strange weird connection she has with some of her folks. And the the only consistent thing is they don't stay. You'll get folks who are around for a while. Anyone remember Karate Joe the PDF? He was around for a bit and Shantel caught [ __ ] for defending um what did she say? She was talking about sex offenders, of course, because it's not hot topic and redemption and and uh punishment and treatment and and the like. So, there are a lot of folks going over to Rosie. I'm not actually I don't know much about her exactly. So, but Rosie is a little more interested. She's newer to the scene, relatively newer to the to being on the big side. She lost her monetization and got it back pretty quick. Um, she had Chantel had to wait a little longer. Rosy's came back fast and then she went right back to doing her stuff. Aside from her being super morbidly obese and I think I saw a thumbnail that said she was having like boyfriend stuff. Yeah, Rosie does things bad. I know. I'll start catching up on her more. I'm gonna have to go in cold like foodie though. So, I'm gonna have to like watch her for two months uh before I can comment on anything. You know, I could do a cold comment, like a reaction to anything. But, I don't think anyone has shared that uh Rosy's channel is like controversial or provocative.

[00:34:50]She's just doing her thing. Um she probably has a lot of personality. I won't say what kind, but a lot of personality like most folks. If you're going to belly up to the bar next to Shantal and Amber, you better bring your agame. They don't fight fair either.

[00:35:07]There are no fair fights in girl world.

[00:35:10]Call it rule number three if you have to. So, you know.

[00:35:19]Mhm. I don't believe Shantel has the capacity to be a good person. Again, I think that goes I agree. I think it goes to personality and like personality changes big. When people um sometimes have a challenging life event, they come out the other side of it different.

[00:35:35]They're not the same person in a lot of good ways, maybe in some bad ways, and the person has changed. Um my own, I was a drinker, a heavy drinker, and it was more than that. I wasn't just trying to get drunk or sleep. I was trying to get numb. It was an entire lifestyle that I had built around it. Um being manipulative was one of the the hallmarks of addiction. you know, taking advantage of people like I would if I needed money, I'd steal your purse and then help you go look for it. Like that kind of scumbag. So, I can appreciate, you know, that. And now that I don't live that kind of lifestyle, do I ever think, "Oh, I could I could grab that lady's purse and she would never know."

[00:36:16]I really don't. And if I do have a thought like that, I'm like, "Wow, I haven't, you know," or if I walk past a bar and I'm like, "It smells in there."

[00:36:24]I'm like, never a time would the smell of a bar have stopped me from loving it or going in.

[00:36:31]Yeah, she manipulates everybody. She doesn't have relationships. She takes hostages.

[00:36:36]The difference. So, I'm going to try the dill dip if anyone wants.

[00:36:42]We happen to have real chips. They were a gift that were sent. You know, people think it goes real deep with Jean Tal like beyond she had such a cluster of stuff happen when she was a kid. I just don't think that she was set up for success in life and that's a mixture of of you know the people that were raising her and supposed to be bringing her up with some sense of whatever. So I think a lot of people Yeah. think that she's coming up with some help from some folks in the community. I've always thought for years that Shantel had uh private individuals, very private, I guess, who she would maybe perform for, or she would say, "I'll do this in a video if dot dot dot." There's people that just get off on spending their money. Shantel will hit gold if she found someone who's going to pay her exorbitant rent to live on the 19th floor. It's not um a life that creates a lot of envy. I think I don't think people watch Shantel and go, "Oh man, if only I could have it that good." You know what? If only I could be as pretty. I saw that gorick bread head that on a thumbnail as I was scrolling through. If only I could get all the men like Shantel.

[00:38:00]You can have any man you want if you're easy or if you have no like lowered expectations. She would never ask a guy out because there's the opportunity to say no. She'll just move her [ __ ] into your house and then when you ask her to leave, she'll come back and say, "Well, I have to keep coming back to get my shit." And she'll come back and grab each thing one at a time. Look, Nat was not a nice guy to my my opinion. I don't know him, but I I didn't like the way he I didn't like his personality. It was nothing particular that I could pick out aside from sending out texting photos, which makes you a scumbag no matter who no matter who the person in the picture is. the the action of sending it makes someone despicable. So, it's just it's deep. It's deep. It's not anything I don't think it's anything you can take medication for. She'll talk about THC as being her med, but the kind of things that people take THC for um medically cuz she's calling it her medicine. Just cuz I took 10 Percoet, it's still medicine. Okay? It's not that big of a deal. So we we can tell ourselves all sorts of stories to continue our behavior. And I think that's what she does, too. She just creates for herself a new this is my line of reaction for this. So she was just born bad from the beginning. You know, some there's a school of thought that there's a fair amount of those kind of people just beyond redemption.

[00:39:30]If there is redemption, like I said, it's going to be have to he be more than just changing her behaviors. It's how she looks at herself, how she looks at life and her place in the world. And I don't know, I don't think she's that deep. Before a conversation could get that uncomfortable, she'd start eating because uncomfortable, get it away.

[00:39:50]You believe she's a bad seed?

[00:39:54]Yes, I remember. She um if that is the case, and it very well could be, what's her next move? What happens to a person, you know, bad seed? I'm thinking young folks, um, how do you then provide help to a 41-year-old, 42year-old woman who lives alone and is getting close to having limited mobility to the point where home health could come in, you know, she needs someone to help her take out the she doesn't need all this stuff, mind you. She's it's inconvenient for her to do it. So, she's labeled it as a limitation. Kind of like how if there's a medical diagnosis, it's not okay to make fun of her. You can't say anything about her physical ability as long as she's in a scooter cuz she needs help walking.

[00:40:43]Yeah, I think that crew I agree. I think the crew of Beaser she has really they're supportive, but it's it's they're not going to stay. They're not going to stay. They're going to turn over faster. Um she's cycling I don't think she's necessarily cycling faster through her her normal business. Um but she's passed the point where she was going to go back to Syria or they were he was going to come to Canada. Very little mention of Salah um recently. You know it's her husband m all that kind of the reason she fakes being Muslim. You know that if Salah left the faith she would very eagerly ditch whatever she was doing too. People have said, and I kind of agree that when she has the abaya here and everything, it's easier to fake Muslim than do your hair.

[00:41:35]So, let's fake Muslim. You know, I always say, I'm going to get my yarmaka to cover the ball part in the back. It doesn't cover this, but as long as we're lying to ourselves, let's go big.

[00:41:48]I need a chip.

[00:41:56]someone if she was by birth just not she grew up in a pressure cooker that would have taken a welladjusted person off their square. Um not everyone who has a young mother turns out like Shantel but there can be more challenges when you're a young mother. There's amount of maturity that isn't there yet when you're starting to be caring for somebody else.

[00:42:20]So, not easy, but she blossomed in these kind of situations where she would triangulate her mom against grandma, against this other person. Uh, grandma loves me, you never did. Um, that kind of that kind of nonsense that they're all bickering like back and forth.

[00:42:39]I don't know. Let's see what else do we have here. Oh, her extreme extreme intoxication. Hey, brave. So she was she was living large. She has made it kind of her routine right now. Exactly.

[00:42:57]Victim of yourselves. I feel seen. Thank you so much for your input in this chat.

[00:43:01]Um where did I go with that? So she has made something of a routine of going out to smoke a joint and then going back in and either having snacks or getting food or or similar. Um, usually at night time, sometimes during the day. She of course talks like it's not something she does all the time. I think though I don't know. Um, she said Salah doesn't like it, so she wasn't going to do it on camera. So if she's doing it on camera, it's because she's trying to get some kind of attention from Salah. Good, bad, doesn't care, but she'll act out in that way because he specifically said, "I don't want you to do it." If he messages her and said, "I said I don't like that." Then they're still together. You know, as long as they're fighting, they're not broken up, so she'll just drag that [ __ ] out. He has no reason not to keep her on the line. What's it to him? A text every so often, you know, on that hour and half hour intervals.

[00:43:59]I thought it was Pius. Yeah, but she had a hyctomy, but I'm sure she didn't take um care of herself after the fact.

[00:44:08]So, um, certainly her her hormones could be out of whack, but all these things like the environment she grew up in and her medical concerns, all of these have shaped her into the person she is. For good or for, you know, thank you very much. We try try to be fair, try to, you know, balance and not blame, to to have respect, but point out unacceptable behaviors, too. I try to steer away from saying I hate Shantel or [ __ ] her. Um, I'll leave that between her and her her higher self to sort out. Um, but that aside, I don't, you know, exactly. It's not from the part of the whole not you know her ACES score her a score adverse childhood experiences was probably kind of high and even a welladjusted well-tempered child could have a hard time blooming in that kind of environment or developing in that kind of environment let alone one who's like imagine Shantal a four-year-old sociopath like could you imagine um stealing attention from her mother's dates when she was growing up you know she was competing for male attention from the time that before I don't know 10 years old probably like that and again cuz her mom was young her mom was just living her life in her 20s but you she was 25 with a seven-year-old and a seven-year-old Shantel I'm sure she was a handful the fact that she had left the house was in a group home situation was couch surfing with people a lot of parents if they like their kids will help them out you can stay here for a little while if you need to or you know, we can maybe even financially help out.

[00:45:55]Like that kind of thing. That'sm. Nope.

[00:46:00]So, yeah, with the weed, she'll just smoke on camera, eat a bunch of [ __ ] and then say my husband really doesn't want me to do this. So, I'm not going to. If I do, it'll be once in a while off camera. You guys won't see it. I don't need to see her smoke to see how [ __ ] up she was.

[00:46:19]Wrecked. and she was so wrecked you couldn't even catch her because even if you did try to catch her in a lie, she was talking so slow you just left the chat before she answered. Um, that level of intoxication on camera to me is concerning. Um, not doesn't matter what the drug is, it's legal, it's fine. If she had like a blood alcohol of like a.35, you know, I think people would say something eventually like, "Wow, you're intoxicated a lot when you get intoxicated.

[00:46:50]You know, as far as substances to use, I suppose, you know, marijuana, THC products are the most benign when it comes to things like risk of overdose or bad reactions. Um, so if it's legal or if you're somewhere where it's medicinal, give it a whirl. But again, saying it's my medicine, I have the little card. I have to go to the place and sign in and they check my card and they see that I'm registered and that a doctor has approved it and then I go see and I get medical grade stuff. So that's a different process than than what she does. She'll spend a lot on stuff that sounds like it'll get her wrecked and then takes it all. But it's not for like it's one thing to like have an edible or smoke a little before bed. It's another to take a handful of Adavan and say what it's a medicine. I just take what I need. I'm just trying to get by. So it's not the same thing. It's a very convenient way to say, "Oh, this is no, it's medicine for some people." But if you're taking enough of any drug that they could perform surgery and you wouldn't blink, then maybe you're a little too high. Maybe you're a little too high. I don't know. And you said your husband cares. We haven't seen that yet. He said a while ago she's still trying to bait him to say something and I don't think it's working. Um, she would love to fight with him because like I said, if they fight, they're talking. You had a mother that was a psychopath and you did it. So, you know, it's, you know, family personalities run in the family. You know, if you get I had a friend in high school and his mother was this kind of sad sack Eeyore type and and so was his grandmother and so was his sister. And it's just like a family value, I guess, to to be that way, to be negative, to be pessimistic.

[00:48:36]And you know, of course, even though I had friends like that, we invited them to parties and do like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. No one asked him to change. They still invited him along even though he was a boring pain in the ass because that's what you do with friends. Um, and Shantel's the kind of friend I think I would have kept or would have found when I was in college because she's over the top. She's chaotic in a way that, you know, uh, dumb people find fascinating. you know, she's not like a wild risktaker so much.

[00:49:07]Um, on the surface it looks like that, you know, like living in the Middle East, that's something most people don't do, at least in America. There's something a lot of people don't do is is spend time living for anything in that area. So, that's an experience no one can take away from her. But she saw very very little of the worlds that she's been in. She saw little of Thailand. She saw very little in Kuwait. She saw very little in Syria. the there was a beach right outside in like and I can't imagine just I don't think she has a sense of appreciation for stuff that I think a lot of people would be like man it would be great to live near the beach man it would be great to have the kind of money where I could travel and go places I want and bring my work with me I don't know I agree with you most parents even parents who are bad parents are usually still doing their best you know they can they might be [ __ ] it up really bad but even bad parents I try and they get discouraged. And I don't know how I'd feel if I had a kid and an agency intervened and said, "You can't raise your kid very well, can you?" And they decided to help with that. Um, I'm not built for parenthood. It's just as well I was born this way because um I' I've got uncle energy, but not for not for a child. No. So pot's a tough one because yeah, well that's the here's the hell of it.

[00:50:34]Psychiatric medications, some of them can make you hungry. If Shantel was taking one that maybe caused that, I wouldn't blame her being 250 lbs overweight on a modest weight gain. Um, but some of them make you big. I'm taking Cypress right now. Um, it's working well in my mind. I can concentrate at work. I can sleep. I can do normal things. I can function and it's good. But it has side effects. I gained 35 lbs I think since I started taking it about six, seven, eight months ago. Now that I'm not happy about, but I'm trying to be mature and decide, you know, my sanity is worth more than having hipbones. So, we'll do that. Um, on the note of segments, Shantel will blame her mentals, so to speak, um, during different things. She'll lash out when she's angry and you get to see her personality right there on Main Street.

[00:51:27]And then she'll backpedal a little bit after and say, "I'm sorry. I just get so angry and I just say hurtful things. We are so toxic together." No, you're toxic half a world away thinking that there's some guy sitting by his phone waiting.

[00:51:43]He's not. He's not. Oh, Shantel, put it down. And then when it starts vibrating a lot, you Hey cutie with a smiley face.

[00:51:52]Why did you call me cutie? You usually call me love. Honey, you're lucky he's calling at all. At all. It's just not I don't know. He's going to be done at some point. I mean, if he's not done now. I mean, for all we know, this has been over for a minute or two, and Salva's just going through the motions for her sake.

[00:52:12]I don't know.

[00:52:18]But she'll follow him, I think, if he moves to another country. But thing is, Salah is not cut from the same culture.

[00:52:26]And I'm not going to say Western culture means ditch your family and go live your own life. But it's more of a collectivi collectivistic happy Friday, my Friday um culture. So there was bound to be more connection with family and the aunts who probably saved Salah's life by sniffing her out and shooting her out of the house. G sending her a goaway party and say don't come back and then fake some medical [ __ ] at the hut. So they have to come get you and bring you back. But probably hadn't even put all the food away and all of the noise makers and the party hats. Not even time and she was back. So I'm an okay uncle. I don't have too many things. I always give when they were growing up, I would give like genderneutral kind of gifts, usually like art supplies or clay or coloring books. Um, something not gendered and they could, you know, have fun with it or not. And they always did. Musical instruments, like everyone had a recorder when they were nine, at least when I was growing up, because you had to learn in school. So many other things I could have learned, but we took time to learn the recorder. It doesn't come up much. I didn't even learn enough of it to have a fun time at parties showing off nothing. I can play Glory B cuz it's only three notes and that's it. So, um, as far as her extreme intoxication, like I said, she's going to keep it private. She's not going to do it more public. She'll do it less publicy. She'll just do it, but she'll do it with less of an audience.

[00:53:58]She'll try to be discreet about it. If she's filming herself using a substance that her husband doesn't like, then she's trying to get his attention. And if she's not getting it, she's going to act out more and more. And it'll be food, more substances, more effed up.

[00:54:12]She'll pick a fight with somebody if she gets McDonald's within the next 24 hours, which I think is a good possibility. She went for a burrito bowl um from Chipotle and she was eating it.

[00:54:23]And as she's eating this thing, which is like lettuce and greens and probably rice and beans in the bottom um She's like, "Oh, I'm not going to finish this." She could finish a lumberjack breakfast in 5 minutes, but she's not going to finish this mostly vegetable salad and have some later. She'll Okay, it's nice to, you know, go meal by meal.

[00:54:43]Okay, what's the healthiest thing I can eat next? And next, I don't know. She's just she's a glutton for a lot of things and punishment may be one of them. But again, when she was playing reindeer games with Nat, it was hard to say who's, you know, who's the top, who's the bottom, who's in charge.

[00:55:01]And I always felt like Shantel was bottoming from the top. You know, she wanted to be pushed around and she wanted to be directed and and wanted to be the opposite of the pushy bee she is in in her everyday life. So, she wants it exactly how she wants it, but she wants you to do it. So, she's calling the shots even though she's not the person doing the bulk of the work. We all know her favorite position, starfish. You just lay there and let your part such a lazy even in sex like lazy lazy lazy. There's one thing to having a partner fuss and fawn over you, but I would think it would more be the male partner and then that she would do the fussing and the fawning. Not that Salah or Natter was going to come in and be like, "Oo, take that hijab off. Let me see what's underneath." You know what's underneath? There's dandruff underneath. So, well guys, we're coming up on about the hour now. So, I'm going to leave you be projections going soon.

[00:55:58]I'm going to say McDonald's 24 hours.

[00:56:00]Within 24 hours, we're having McDonald's, which means there's going to be another emotional blowup about something within the next couple days.

[00:56:07]Just in time for the weekend, just in time for her to eat [ __ ] So, so goes.

[00:56:12]Um, for what it's worth, we actually had this first. Mark won a Mark won a contest from Hell of a Good and they had the dill pickle dip. This is delicious, actually. If you like dill pickles or you like dill kind of as a vibe, very, very good. So, I will endorse that. Pepsi won't back me, but I endorse Diet Pepsi, too. So, thank you all for joining me. We will be catching up probably sooner than later. Um, for some of you who caught, was it yesterday's video or the day before, Mark's going to be in the hospital next weekend, so I don't know that I'll be on. I won't be on probably Friday. I'll put some community posts up because I know you guys care. But um so as I have information, I'll I'll share some with you. Not in real time, not every 10 minutes, but as I find out things. And then he's going to be in the hospital for the weekend next weekend. So I might be hit or miss coming in to visit. I'll be keeping up with Foodie Beauty. You know, he's going to be waiting to come out of anesthesia. I'll have some time to read and try to keep up with the business of life. So um he'll be here couple weeks you might see him. Um, some content might be less more less recorded content because Mark loves to do the recorded content. So, but we'll be round. So, please do subscribe.
