@miriam_tinny: Apologies for any typos in the captions on screen. These were originally posted on my IG stories. I find this whole situation ENDLESSLY FASCINATING. Like what’s interesting to me is watching the push and pull of her social media throughout all of this. Like when you bring people in, you have no choice what happens when they enter….and you need to be reaaaaaally wary. To then ask them to leave when they’re inside is naive I think… #hotchef #parasocial #internet #fans #threads

From my perspective it’s very hard being a content creator because there’s no HR and people are learning in real time what they want to share. We are holding people way too accountable on both ends when this is all so new. Nothing is owed just because you shared once doesn’t mean you have to keep doing it even if people are invested.

That's enough, Ohio. :
This is such an interesting & worthwhile conversation to have. To milk your metaphor, I agree that you're entering into a contract of sorts when you bring people into your space & offer updates etc, but the terms of those contracts are basically never explicitly defined, leaving everyone involved vulnerable to feeling violated in a weird way. Ultimately, it's weird to think anyone owes personal information just because they've shared it previously. But they also aren't owed zero reaction from those who've been welcomed in & waved through when they suddenly get a door slammed in their face. It's so hard because this is still so very new & creators can't always know how to set boundaries or shift those boundaries smoothly, and unfortunately content consumers tend to forget the humanity of creators uncomfortably easily. I really have no idea how to fix this, but given how frequently & passionately people keep disagreeing about it, it feels SUPER important to keep talking about it.

I think it’s jarring but not necessarily irresponsible

I think social media is becoming increasingly toxic for a lot of people as people normalise only putting the ‘good’ parts of their life on show and hide the stuff we should normalise such as break ups, grief, miscarriages etc which are all normal things which have always been difficult to process and taboo to talk about. Ultimately no one is obliged to share any part of their stories but these are good questions - at which part of the parasocial relationship you have encouraged do people draw lines…

Am I the only person on the Internet who doesn't care. I think that content creators are by design trying to bring people into their world. Are there any boundaries?

Hello :
Surely you could understand how publicly sharing joy is far easier than publicly sharing heartbreak. I people really want access to her grief, they can pay for it. No one is entitled to every part of a person.

i know people don’t owe us anything, but as a viewer it is extremely frustrating how content creators will happily share so many details about their relationship, and then when there’s a break up they just drop off everything with no explanation and we just have to be cool with that. it happens every single break up, divorce, etc. i’m not saying they owe anybody an explanation, but if they choose not to explain it, they should expect people to be frustrated and expect inquiring comments and they shouldn’t get mad at their viewers for asking because they opened the door to the content in the first place and gave people the means to be curious and ask those questions.

Figuring out the reality of being online happens over time. I don’t think that folks own any part of our lives. Even those people that started out here as real people sharing life. When it becomes a public speculative consumption of your life the listener/consumer has the responsibility of consuming responsibility. The hierarchy switches making people incredibly vulnerable. I respect when folks disappear when they have had too much, I do appreciate a heads up because I will think of them and hope they are doing well. They do not own us their private information.

I have a lot of thoughts about this, but one of my major concerns in the whole situation is wondering how much consent he had in the performative and romanticization of their relationship. to me it felt exploitative and very likely pressurized the relationship for it to be so openly talked about through this rose-colored lens that she was using.

Nothing. People who form parasocial relationships with creators are the problem.
