Influencer Culture

I’ve been reflecting on influencer culture & what makes Missy K a bad influencer but she’s someone who has a huge following so like how/why this happened. I think she demonstrated that so perfectly this weekend. First, she made several posts about her friend’s wedding and the prep work she was doing. Even myself as a certified hater was waiting for her to post literally anything, I wanted to see her dress. Pictures of the venue, all the things. And most influencers to do post on their story in real time, especially if they’re doing something big because activities = engagement = money. But she hasn’t made a single post this entire weekend.

Which maybe the bride said no social media posts that applied to everyone. I think most people who have an active social media account will post on their story if they’re at a party or wedding or what have you. Influencer or not. I find this kind of unlikely because it would be hard to police and at certain point, everyone is just having fun. But maybe her friend said Missy k specifically can’t post.

Missy K is likely going to make a post that says something like “oh I took a break from social media so I could be present,” which she does quite often, especially here recently. But then she’ll like post a video of her weird clips of her secretly filming so it’s like she was on her phone & making content to post later?

I guess my overall point is that I’ve never seen an influencer not being consistently engaged with her followers but yet still has such a huge following. She’s teased this wedding for a week but then goes completely silent when it is happening and it’s like she keeps people waiting. Influencer culture is annoying yes, but there’s always pictures, stories, and maybe tik tok dances or something silly/cute. And yes, some things are private and influencers probably keep a lot of moments to themselves but this feels a lot different to me.

All this to say that, this is one of the reasons why I find Missy K so fascinating (derogatory). Cause this is her job & her livelihood and I just don’t see her hustling at all. And I wonder if she’s noticed a drop in revenue because she does go on blocking & deleting sprees. But would we like influencers more if they posted less but the posts were more meaningful?

Bad influencer?

So these two screenshots were taken during her last video and while the computer is covering her face, she’s still talking…… like why? And there’s a noticeable difference because the auto goes totally muffled.

I’m wondering if she’s just a bad influencer/ content creator but when she was in college, it was just the same thing over & over again. Which she was good at. And maybe she didn’t realize that this would happen but why not film those shots again….

And also, she doesn’t even show the screen doing anything? Like going from a word processor to internet browser to ending film on iMovie. It was just like the Home Screen 😂 so I think she’s just a bad influencer

August Release Dates

Does it mean anything for other states that release scores early that both WV and Arkansas have released or going to be releasing scores in August? Such as North Carolina.

I’ve looked back at the charts and not a single state released test scores in August for July 2025. Also July 2026 statistics chart is live on the NCBE website… maybe the mean will drop soon. :-)

Hot Girl Talks ™️

Okay the way that this story has me in a chokehold. I’m sure like many of us, we’ve all used the phrase “Hot Girl Walk.” I personally don’t remember where I first heard it or necessarily how it came about but it kind of just became a popular phase.

Welllllll apparently this girl has “Hot Girl Walk” trademarked under an LLC, which is called “Hot Girl Walk, LLC” now of course I did some research on the trademark filings and the LLC filings. There’s several trademark filings and from what I’ve gathered, it was rejected a couple of times and they did have to disclaim “Girl Walk.” Then I found some filings where Mia assigned the usage of “Hot Girl Walk” to the LLC, which her dad is the incorporator. Then it’s her dad, Mia, and I’m assuming her mom as the members.

But what I find most interesting about this entire thing is that when I went back to Mia’s original video where she is claiming that she “ invented” the term “Hot Girl Walk” and then the next video has the Megan The Stallion song that popularized “Hot Girl” which in of itself, shows that the phrase cannot and should not be the intellectual property of a single person. Then if you scroll through Mia’s older videos, she’s using “Hot Girl” to put in front of everything??? And then it becomes something where anything can trademarked with “Hot Girl” and i will say the random thing after hot girl. Hot girl pickles. Hot girl shoes. Hot girl sports. Hot girl lamp. Like it’s never ending.

I forgot what it’s called but there’s this concept in psychology where certain ideas are often thought of, for the first ever by multiple people at the same time because of a zeitgeist shift in society and culture. I think this is a really good example of this, like it might be true that Mia thought of “Hot Girl Walk” in her own brain without seeing it first. But because of that song and probably several other reasons, many woman could have also thought of it. Then because of COVID, many people were having to go outside for exercise instead of going to the gym. Including myself, I remember going on these 3-5 mile walks with my dogs almost everyday. Then I’m pretty so many other people were doing the same thing.

so for her to be on the high horse/litigation happy social media tour feels so rich. She is going to absolutely destroy her reputation and everyone is going to be watching. Also I don’t know if anyone has noticed but in Mia’s recent videos about this, it seems very apparent that she has this speech scripted and rehearsed about what a “Hot Girl Walk” is, as this like “three step process” blah blah bullshit. So she’s like setting it up to be this very specific workout/ mental health strategy that she herself invented.

Also Mia, if you’re reading this…. Despite your pending or otherwise trademarks, using the term on social media, including, but not limited to Reddit, is not considered to be a trademark infringement.

Themis: First Practice Exam

Tomorrow is my first practice exam and I’m trying to get a gage on whether everyone has the first practice exam scheduled tomorrow or is it based on how you set up your schedule when you first start?

I’m asking because the exam is locked and doesn’t open until tomorrow. I have looked online but I can’t really seem to get an answer.
