Yeah life is a joke and 99% of us are the punchline.

She didn't become a millionaire afaik.

She has a podcast that's slightly popular and was already well off.

Anon might stop feeling so jealous if they perhaps stopped making up random facts, or believing lies on the internet?

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 64 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not a millionaire overnight, but she did get a huge bump in wealth. She was getting tens of thousands for some appearances fees.

Definitely. Imagine just being out on the town with your friends, answer a silly question, and BAM now you're know world wide for oral sex. The amount of creepy dudes she has to deal with must be off the charts.

[–] Spiralvortexisalie@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For those who don’t know the podcast is called Talk Tuah.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

That's quite clever

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 74 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Ugh, I saw that video once, cringed and moved on. I don't understand why this was passed around so much. But good for her for playing the game. I woulda buried my head in the sand if I went viral for bragging about my awesome schmowshem sloppy toppies

[–] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 49 points 1 week ago (2 children)

People say her podcast is actually good. I don't know, I haven't listened to it, but if so, then she is playing the game with decidedly more skill than just one 5-second video clip.

[–] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 39 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Honestly, I back the hustle. Even catch me outside chick. If that gets you ahead, fair does. Men have been espousing far more damaging rhetoric and making a buck. Go for it. Disclaimer: I've not listened to her podcast so she could be a Nazi for all I know. But young people, cost of living - if it works and it's not hurting you or the community, then go for it.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

Handed an audience. Monetized it. Not posting nudes.

She cracked the code.

She is actually pretty sweet and smart and I have a lot of respect for her making the most of what's happened.

People say her podcast is actually good

I thought that was a meme...

...Is the Talk Tuah podcast actually talking about the historic warfare patterns of the Spanish Armada?

[–] RealFunAtParties@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

I'm pretty sure that aspect of it is the meme. That on Talk Tuah she discusses topics she is wildly under qualified for.

"On this episode of Talk Tuah, Hawk Tuah discusses particle physics, Byzantine economics..." etc.

that's not jealousy, it's an observation

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

its calling bullshit on this idiocy called the world

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago

it can be both. who wouldn't want, at least for a while, inurement from financial consequences. And those that have it also still want to retain it. Mimetic desire or not, it is still desired by those who have or have not.

The only reason to frame not wanting to suffer as bad is if you want to inflict that suffering

What on 4Chan? Ridiculous!

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

4chan is the wrong forum for that

I don't know who she is. What am I doing right?

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 45 points 1 week ago (4 children)

She talked about a blow job in a funny way and it became a meme, then she jumped to capitalize on the popularity

[–] three@lemm.ee 29 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Jump tuah, capitalize on that thang!

Anon discovers that life often isn't all that fair...

Being smart and hardworking can bolster your odds, but your lot in life really boils down to how lucky you are, and how well equipped you are to capitalise on that luck.

Unfortunately the right combination of extreme luckiness and ability to capitalise on it doesn't come up all that often, so most people simply won't ever get that lucky break.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 42 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

life isn't fair, but this isn't life. it's the system put in place by people. chalking it up to life not being fair is complicity.

life isn't fair that someone may be born with a lifelong disease, or they may get one later. can't do anything about that. economic fairness is something we can change.

BTW I never understood why she became popular, it wasn't that interesting or funny... but I have nothing against her capitalizing on an opportunity. she was suddenly put in the spotlight but she hasn't grifted her way there. doesn't hurt anyone. good for her. my comment isn't about her but meritocracy in general.

of course extreme luck can be replaced by inherited wealth and daddies' connections and suddenly we are looking at a super star who would under average room temperature conditions would only make it to local news

[–] weker01@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Being born into riches is extreme luck.

Or did most of us choose to live on hard difficulty?

(well most of us are probably on medium difficulty, do to the fact that we can post here)

I mean I'm jealous too

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 6 points 1 week ago

This isn't jealousy, it's "the system is broken, here's an example of what I mean"
