Is anyone else surprised she hasn’t been marketing/pushing IHERT on socials as much? I thought she would literally post about it at least 5 times a day after she announced the cover.

Am I the only one that just can’t stand Eli rallo? I find her super annoying, her videos to be cringy, always yapping about something stupid, and acting like a know it all, I feel like she’s always right in her mind. There’s so much more that I can say but I just wanna know if I’m alone in this or not! lol

Don’t know if someone’s already posted this fic but it’s one of my absolute favorites! It’s almost finished with the author updating monthly! https://archiveofourown.org/works/78809231/chapters/206682116#workskin

does anyone have any fic recs where Mike kisses Will and Will thinks it’s a joke at first?

I will give you my first born

I listened briefly to her new episode today and an issue I have with her and other content creators/influencers is how they act like they are the busiest people alive and it’s like I just simply do not believe that honestly and it’s so annoying when they say that they are 🙄 it’s like okay you have brand trips and stuff like that but there’s just no way you’re as busy as you say you are - another thing that annoys me is when they launch a project and they say how long it took and how much work it was and it’s like okay I guess!! 😵‍💫

As we know Eli is very privileged and comes from wealth. I think majority of her issues comes from the fact that she grew up in wealth, white and skinny but the only thing holding her back was how she looks in the face department. She isn’t traditionally conventionally attractive and this can be jarring since she’s so close to being perfect but alas this is holding her back. From my experience white women who fall under this demographic, feel like second class citizen and feel discriminated against. This is why it makes so much sense why Eli likes Lena Dunham as much because they are very similar. Lena knows she’s unattractive in the traditional sense so she leans on other things such as her writing. When it comes to Eli she focused on being smart and cultured (musical theatre) and being a writer to compensate for this short coming. But this didn’t because she isn’t talented enough to be on Broadway so she has to pivot to her writing. Her gaining a following on TikTok I believe gave her validation that she was special whereas she hasn’t felt that way before except within her circle of friends and family. Thus giving her confidence to believe she can do writing and pursue her other dreams. The only issue is, she isn’t the literary darling she wants or claims to be. She reads but I don’t believe she’s as much read as she thinks she is. She acts like she knows everything about books and publishing when we recently learned she doesn’t know what a comp title is. She acts like her book taste is underrated books/hidden gems when the books she likes are also well liked and well known. Even though her book will do well sales wise she won’t ever be like Coco Mellors, Ann Patchett, etc because she doesn’t have the writing skill to execute a well written story. All of this to say, I believe when her book comes out and people post honest reviews on tiktok, she will not be in a good head space because she will have to face that she isn’t the literary genius she makes herself out to be. If there are people who praise her book I see it being book influencers/regular influencers saying it ONLY because they don’t want to hurt her feelings. I remember when Eli reposted her editor saying people will blown away by her debut and I feel she’s only saying this because of the sales Eli will bring in because after reading that excerpt I do not believe she genuinely feels that way. All in all, I feel Eli will have a breakdown of sorts because her perception of herself being a voice of a generation and a literary darling
will crumble.
