    Googling “how to anonymously send someone a thesaurus.” Find a word (or a few) other than cute!

    Gene, you need to stop calling it camping. You do not camp. You pull into a campsite and hide in your car.

    As a kid my family camped in Joshua Tree regularly. As in no campsites, no toilets (not even pit toilets). Knowing my hippie dad, it was likely private land we were trespassing on, lol. But we hauled everything in, slept in tents, had campfires, etc. I also did hiking camping trips with dad as a teenager. When my kids were little we camped in campgrounds, in tents. Cooked over the fire, etc. I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve graduated to a pull-behind trailer with lots of amenities, and I’m not above turning on the AC and hiding out in the camper if it’s sweltering hot out. But we still cook at camp, over the fire, have a fire every night, sit outside and *gasp* we even socialize with people camping around us.

    What you do Gene is pull into a site, complain about the price, take a short walk to the bathroom (but only if there’s no one around who might wave at you) and then literally hide in your car. No sitting around the campfire enjoying the evening. No cooking on the fire or camp stove. It’s not camping.

    It’s cosplaying a person living in their car. Just admit you don’t like to camp.

    It would be totally on brand for Gene to comment on how expensive it is to get tickets to TSwift and then decide to go when it’s even more expensive.

    Oh that second one next to the woman in black will drive her nuts.

    I had to go back and listen again (at normal speed no less, ugh) to the part about sleep away camp. I don’t think she was saying CC and Donny go to the event at their school, just that they have one. Given how Gene infantilizes them, she can’t even begin to imagine them going. It actually kind of surprises me she DOESN’T make them go.

    Here’s a novel thought Gene: perhaps Donny isn’t ready for a sleep away, but perhaps CC is? Believe it or not, they ARE individuals and CC is older than her brother. Stop making them one monolithic baby.

    Jinny, maybe if it was your first cruise and you documented everything, including your kids you could do 30 mins. 80 mins of b roll (gag) of your 5th groundhog day cruise, seriously?!?!? Same goes for your daily Run Disney vlogs.

    This one isn’t even the cruise. It’s the Joshua Tree trip in the fartrunner.

    Same with the fact that she had a housekeeper - she had no job or kids at the time, but couldn't clean her own home.

    Yes, I remember when we ‘found out’ the reason she always did her shopping errands on Tuesdays and sent Winnie to Aunt Julie’s house was because the crew of cleaners came that day.

    Jen always claimed she was such a busy bee that she needed to be up at the crack of dawn with planners, schedules and to-do lists to get everything done. I think the tides started to turn when people realized the housewife part of her life was all outsourced.

    She also never quite got it that part of the reason people made a big deal about it was that she tried for so long to keep it under wraps that they had housecleaners. If she’d been open about it she would have gotten less criticism.

    She Instagramed a photo of a (chicken?) bone. That's not magic, it's revolting.

    A photo of the kids pulling and making a wish would be ok.

    Looking at the thumbs in the picture, I think it’s the are way more normal looking than her weird thumbs!

    2014… she wanted to laminate this and put it in her Filofax. It was the “sweetest thing”.

    “I love you because I was born for this.” Until he wasn’t 🤣

    Yeah, ILYUTEOT, didn’t age well either!

    One of her paid friends needs to ask her during a live at what age her parents started taking her to the theater. Just to hear her justify why she can’t take CC.

    So on one hand they've been spending a small fortune on the SK for years so that the kids learn to be independent, and on the other Gene's training them to be as useless as her. I just don't get it. Don, do something!

    I laugh every time she says she can’t do glass Christmas ornaments yet, maybe in a few years when the children are older. One of the basic practices in Montessori schools is that from a very young age the children use real dishes, glasses, knives, etc. Her children have both been using, carrying and washing glass drinking glasses for years.

    When did she become an affiliate for Crown Athletics? I only hear of her talking about them. Are they popular? It reminds me of LuLuRoe clothing.

    I thought she didn't do affiliate products and criticized creators who did?

    She’s always done affiliate links. She doesn’t do sponsored content and yes, acts smug about it. The real reason is that it would actually be like a job where there are deadlines and responsibilities.

    Be on the lookout for signs that Jenny might be getting a break from the kids today because she did a happiness meditation this morning.

    Either that or she’s trying to force herself to be happy 😂

    It’s probably so she can fake happiness for BBBrooke, who ran her 100th Disney race this morning. Gene could never, and she knows it.

    Didn’t she recently say that she was in the process of moving her old vlogs to Patreon but that it was a bigger process (read as: required her to exert some effort) than she realized? That could be why she’s deleting these. I’m not saying that’s why she’s removing Don from her IG, though, just that I remember hearing something about the vlogs but can’t make myself to back and listen to her again to find it.

    IIRC that was about the Patreon vlogs only. They were hosted on Vimeo and haven’t been working correctly for patrons to go back and watch.

    Yeah, a community she leads. A community where if you send Jen a Christmas card she might send one back to you but it definitely won't get there before Christmas. You'll also need to sign up before the deadline. No excuses! Even being in the hospital with terminal cancer doesn't count! Dontcha know those cards aren't free and Jen is a budgeting single mom.

    Gene goes on and on about it being a community, and how she feels there’s so much connection in the WWC (agree with who ever said it sounds like an elementary school club).

    Question for the Bakery spies: are there ever actual conversations? Back and forth conversations? And even if there are, is Gene involved with any of them? More than just a quick comment, but an actual ongoing interaction?

    I mean, I know the answer, but…
