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.
Wow! That’s so accurate.
This is pure gold! I love it. Well done AI for being smarter than most of her followers

Sorry Birdie but it’s hideous lol. This whole renovation is just gonna be SO busy and be like a fun house when it’s done. She’s picking the busiest tiles for every room lol.
Looks like an ice cream parlour! 😂
It does except the ice cream parlour would have chosen a different wall colour
I can’t help but wonder how much is motivated to hide her filtering? Fun house x mental health respite center collab vibes
Such an excellent point! She’s not filtering - it’s just the floor tile
Lmao it does. It’s awful.
Her whole house does lol
If this house was listed for sale, that floor would be the deal breaker. Hopefully she plans on staying a long time
her using the sample tiles (with all three colour options) as her shower tiles says so much about her eye for design. Stick to Reitmans bird-brain
I don’t even do floors like that in The Sims!
Each to their own but if I was doing a major renovation like they are I would be beyond disappointed to see this. Screams beetlejuice oh but wait doesn’t she have an invite to the premiere 🤨
I have always despised black/white floor tile. It’s so ugly.
Reminds me of The Donut Diner.
Haaaate iiiiiiiit.
And we thought that living room wallpaper was bad? WHY didn’t she get an interior designer to help her make choices here. Weeeell, then again maybe she did but she refused to listen
I always hated that tacky gold shelf she had in the living room
Her whole house was that boho yard sale vibe with muted mauves and peaches and warm metals. Ow she’s going for…the 50s? Idanno. I hate it.
Omg that’s awful!
😬😵💫
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!
Congratulations!
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
Like the carousel horse!!? Where in the world is that ghastly thing going?
Right? Literally why did she need that??? She never thinks about things, she just buys.
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.
Imagine her pulling up to the school and asking the teacher if they can film some videos throughout the day 😂
She appears to be someone who has always received whatever she wanted, has never been told no or had to had to go without. Doesn’t know the meaning of hard times.
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.
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?
Total smoke and mirrors, she is the consummate con artist in everything she does on social media, but that’s what you can get away with in a totally unregulated industry. Hopefully someday this will change
Best username!
She’s the biggest phoney.
But the way they even shape shift/look entirely different in the same shoot, even!! Like how in the holy geezes.
Goob u2 on insta is considering a post on influencers - go vote!
Big important career job of the day, talking about Canadian KD vs American KD 🙄 dear god how does this woman have a platform and make money off it lol
And more stretch mark BS….how do people not get sick of it. She’s a broken record.
People’s comments in the stretch mark reel have me losing hope, people think she literally changed the world by having stretch marks and showing them 😫
And she jumped 25,000 followers. Mama confused here. How can that be ?
damn!! Sure Birdie, sure.
WTF. Ya right Birdshit!
She won’t be happy until she’s made her follower count equal the world’s population
Hahahahaha yes
Why does she need a different bathing suit every time she’s in her pool?
That you know she NEVER actually swims in. Has she even ever been in it without her phone?
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!!!
The ‘chestal’ area looks a little different than in the mermaid photo shoot. She’s a real shapeshifter.
those tight bottoms are screaming forthcoming yeast infection
As someone with the same type of belly, I need all of it to be in the undies. I don’t see how that can be comfy!
Same here!!! I can’t stand when I put on a too small pair of undies and my belly isn’t all inside
That definitely looks like she had to crop the photo because those bottoms are exposing flaps.
100%!!! Everyone there was getting a show for sure
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
Those bottoms are ATROCIOUS lol.
Lmao I know, everything she wears is such a miss
It’s what she deserves (insert Kim K gif).
It’s like someone used grandma’s pantyhose to make a Halloween costume
Yes! It looks like those support knee-high hose on either side! The suit is probably supposed to be an optical illusion - the sides aren’t supposed to be highlighted but Sarah misses the mark again!
Stop 🤣🤣🤣
It’s like she put ugliest bathing suit in the search bar to find this thing. It’s her third swimsuit post she’s put up this month!
The ugliest.
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.
It’s really weird she wasn’t there. Did she repost their content?
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 🥳
She really won’t be able to handle it!
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.
That poor child is at Homesense more often than she get taken to the park!
I wish id see this in person, I’d say something. Just terrible treatment of a kid.
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.
