Not to beat a dead horse, but it’s so bizarre that she chooses not to promote her products normally. Oh the logic

I recently downloaded the app. It’s great for printing multiple photos on one 4 x 6 piece of photo paper. It works great. I’d have been happy to pay a few bucks for it. That's the only thing I use it for! ditto I keep looking for a replacement The Epson creative print app actually keeps the photos more true then the PL app but I can’t find a way to save collages To reaches them into a larger collage.

I’m infuriated by her tone deaf, privileged, disgusting post about how she’s going to keep talking because she needs to spread happy right now. ITS NOT ABOUT YOU!!!!!

It's funny how she can take the time out to thank her groupies and gently with love and kindness 🙄 scold those who don't agree with her, but yet she didn't take the time to respond to Kelly Purkey at all after Kelly dropped some knowledge on her blackouttuesday post... and there weren't allot of comments, so I'm sure ol' Becks saw it! FFS!!!
Edited to add: And I had to laugh cause the queen of stories didn't have such a long post in her stories. Usually there are so many dots I can't even count them, today I could, 12!!

It looks like she just added a reply a few minutes after you posted, thanking KP and basically saying she had already started following the person KP recommended. I ended up looking at some other posts (don’t ask me why) and saw that people were SO HAPPY to be warned that prices were going up and were buying up so many kits, blah blah blah, but now some will be free! but if you bought them even “just yesterday” you wouldn’t get a refund. One person commented that indeed, just yesterday she bought *almost all* of the kits that are now going to be free and BH obviously didn’t read the words in the right order because she replied “phew!” with a 😂 face. And the person replied “such a bummer!” which was less angry than I would have been to be tricked and then misunderstood/disregarded. I commiserated with the person, fwiw. Great costumer service, panicking people into buying stuff before it gets more expensive and then turning around and randomly making some of it free (but no refunds if you fell for it!).

Hehehe, maybe she does read here!! Cause I looked and KP posted that 6 whole hours before. You gonna tell me Becks was off the Gram for 6 whole hours? Or maybe she was cause with blackouttuesday there was anything much of interest to her 😶 Maybe I'm just being super pissy cause her I'm gonna post happy shit post from the other day in the midst of national turmoil over racial injustice really irritated me!!

People who still follow her after her countless pooping on her customers deserve what she shovels out.

I don’t follow BH or invest in her products so I was only notified after seeing that KP mentioned me and suggested maybe myself and some more women go on BH podcast to educate. Grateful that KP thought of me, but I want no parts of this lol, especially after the Studio Calico fiasco I prefer to just assist my energy where it is actually needed. Honestly, Crate Paper (they listened, responded, followed up and gave us a few brown faces and I respect true effort) FYC, IACB and KP may only get my money ever again if I even shop in memory keeping crafts again. I did support Ali again and now I feel incredibly conflicted because of her business association to Inked. I like her.

I found her incredibly tone deaf also. She never never never ever supports or features anyone other than religious, white women in her feed, in her sponsorships, or on her podcast. So I found all of her blathering afterwards just more BH clueless word salad. She has no intention of continuing this alleged "learning" after these protests are no longer immediate national news (not that the issue is solved or won't be an ongoing systemic problem or that it will cause her to examine her immense white privilege).
The fact that she won't refund customers who bought the kits during the frenzy and then she made them free is so tacky. This whole "sale" was a way to foment FOMO and rake in cash on products she doesn't even promote or believe in anymore.

I thought her post about the current issues was much more thoughtful and sincere than BH’s post. But someone in the comments of her post actually asked her about the lack of diversity in the podcasts. BP acknowledged the problem and said that is “actively going to do something about it.” I have a screen cap, but I don’t know how to share it. I actually called BH out on her word salad. As always, she said alot without actually saying anything at all. She was hedging. I think she was trying to not offend her followers with delicate sensibilities.

Let's see if they put their money where their mouths are and actually do it...and not just in a "You guys! I'm not a racist because I have a black friend" way.

The lack of people outside their bubble is the reason I stopped listening. That and Becky Higgins and Becky Proudfit talk about things they aren't trained in. Plus, they talk over everyone. And maybe a few other reasons, but mostly because it is the same conversation over and over with just a twist because every guest is from the same demographic.

She's so disgustingly blind.
She posted something about mormons.
You know, the church that didn't even let blacks have the priesthood until something like the late 70's.
Way to be 'woke' Becks.

Someone called her out on her IG post about wanting to only learn from a place of love and respect. The poster told her that learning from people who are angry is important also because that feeling is valid and that it's a sign of white privilege to be able to pick and choose which messages to listen to. BH responded that she finds herself more drawn to messages delivered with "gentleness" and "that's okay!" Good grief. If she keeps patting herself on the back for her "baby steps" I'm going to lose it.

Can someone please remind Becky that her right to vote did not come from gentleness? That her right to practice her religion freely did not come from gentleness? That the land we live on did not come from gentleness? She lives in Arizona... a short drive to a reservation would teach her a hell of a lot.

That's what the devil loves. Just throwing that out there, because I can actually see how she does her best to avoid negative emotions. Why she is that way.
Also wanted to add as late as 2003, the LDS church was using manuals in Sunday School with a quote from the now prophet of the church basically saying it's best for members to marry within their same race because it can cause problems. I'll see if I can find the exact quote.

Okay, I got it a bit mixed up. This is from a talk at BYU in 1995 by the current prophet. "Selection of a marriage partner, on the other hand, involves specific and not general criteria. After all, you can only be married to one individual. " The probabilities of a successful marriage are known to be much greater if both the husband and wife are united in their religion, language, culture, and ethnic background. Thus, in choosing your eternal companion, please be wise. It’s better not to fly in the face of constant head winds. Occasional squalls provide challenge enough." That quote was included in an LDS Institute Class Manual on Eternal Marriage up until 2003. I do not have a source for sure on this though.
But here is the talk from the BYU website.

Not to derail this conversation but it’s sort of in the same lane...Does Hobby Lobby always have their comments off on Instagram? They haven’t made any posts (not surprised by that) but all posts are without comments.
I don’t follow them, but went over to peek since we know their typical stance.

Beggy replied to Ali’s White Fragility post saying she is “grateful for the heightened awareness of things she didn’t know about” but hey, let’s keep life fun and light and airy ‘cause Influencers. Sorry. She just made me mad as hell. So tone deaf it’s not even funny.

I can not stand it when she says “and that’s ok” it drives me nuts, it sounds so condescending to me, like she is making sure to let us know she doesn’t care if someone doesn’t agree with her.

Please marry someone EXACTLY like you. Don't mix. Why would you mix? It's harder. Don't make life harder. The "occasional squalls" are enough already, ok? Be wise. Don't mix. American white person marries American white person and have American white babies together. There, there. YIKES. Big yikes. Holy fuck kind of yikes. Also, I now need to leave my partner. He's not French. His mother tongue isn't French. That's it. We'll never survive this ride. Just kidding, I'm going to remain very unwise. And happy.
