Re: The Lindquists
I LOVED how in today's vlog she asked her subscribers if they wanted to see baby updates. As if she cares lmao. She is going to give you alllllll the baby updates whether you like it or not! Gotta make that $$$ baby.
Am I the only one who cringed when she started talking about her friend that just had a miscarriage and how she feels guilty celebrating with that on her mind but also the knowledge that some of her subscribers are struggling with infertility too? The whole conversation she had with herself about it just seemed off, like she's just saying it to cover all of her bases so that no one thinks she's being insensitive but it's not like she actually cares. And the evidence in her not caring is that she's already posted an array of pregnancy content in the last week over every social media platform she's on. And she's only 5 weeks pregnant ya'll.

Nope, me too. I found it bizarre that she seemed to have a smile when discussing this (video@10:10 onward)--I think she should have re-edited that part if it was just a nervous smile/laugh because it came off insincere. I have watched this family since Cohen's birth as I was pregnant at the time. Even before this whole infertility chapter I was getting tired with the repetitive cleaning/organizing/redecorating and offbeat sponsored videos as I have no interest in this type of content. For me, this channel is becoming unwatchable... I guess time will tell.

Re: The Lindquists
I’m not even trying to be dramatic, I can’t watch her anymore. I’ve lost babies and struggled and her attitude about infertility is so flippant and disrespectful .... I just can’t. I’m on a mental health break from her videos.
Re: The Lindquists
“Hi, I’m Elle and I’m super sensitive to my viewers and friends who have lost babies and suffer from real infertility..... oh look, my vlog got 40,000 views I better go on Instagram immediately and babble on about pregnancy hormones every second of the day”.
I wonder how many free strollers she will get this time? I bet she resells all this crap she gets ! So much for the giving back fund which we all know was a bunch of marketing bull crap that no one really believed in.

Re: The Lindquists
And it seems like especially lately she’s just been getting and receiving so much for free: fridge, kitchen, apple watch, phone....
She probably considers giving people her old counters and fridge part of her giving program.
And while we’re at it, so far what I’ve seen if the new kitchen .... I know it’s all personal taste but I really preferred the style of her old cupboards. I think they were real wood and great quality. What she has now is very modern looking and sometimes the simplicity can look cheap...I guess I’ll reserve further judgment until it’s done but I never saw a problem with it in the first place.
Anyone else feel a certain level of smugness now that she’s pregnant?

Re: The Lindquists
I can’t stand the knobs on her cupboards. Why does she feel the need to spray paint everything that god awful colour, it makes them look so cheap. I noticed she painted some of her small appliances the same colour, even her milk frother.Notablogger wrote:And it seems like especially lately she’s just been getting and receiving so much for free: fridge, kitchen, apple watch, phone....

I can’t believe they are not changing the tiled flooring, it’s so ugly and it really drags the life out of their main floor.

Re: The Lindquists
She hates her tile too but hasn’t found someone to #sponsor them yet.
It will come soon I’m sure.

Re: The Lindquists
I've been curious about how that works. She must be soliciting for sponsorships? Or is she part of a YT network?Notablogger wrote:She hates her tile too but hasn’t found someone to #sponsor them yet.

Re: The Lindquists
She’s proud she “got it from her mama” but wasn’t her mom the abusive one? Also assuming no twins or she’d be exploiting the shit out of it.
Re: The Lindquists
She looks like she dumped a pot of spaghetti on her head.

Re: The Lindquists
I like how’s she holding off on telling her boys about their new sibling because she hasn’t thought of some “memorable” way of telling them and catching it on camera so she can have 30,000 views on a vlog.
For half a second I thought maybe she was holding off on telling Forde in case she had another ectopic or miscarriage so maybe she would wait for 3 months in, but then I remember we are talking about Elle here.

Re: The Lindquists
Her hair looks sticky and crusty from all that product she put in it holy crap. Not the most flattering hairstyle on her. She has such a slim face, and I remember when she would just let her hair wave and she had bangs it looked the most flattering.
Her style of decorating is just so boring in my opinion... and I love minimalistic decor usually, so I'm not sure what it is that bothers me exactly. But yes the rose gold is just getting a bit out of control. It's a style that is going to be soon out of trend (already is going out, if you ask me) and because she always needs to be trendy the moment she realizes it she'll have to change half of her decor around again.
Mcdonalds for dinner lol. Nothing wrong with it honestly but when she said, "Oh you're taping me" and right after had to defend why she was giving her kids fast food... it's just so bizarre to me that she talks about plant-based eating but she gives her kids Mcdonalds chicken nuggets. If ethics are involved at all in her choice to be "plant-based".. which seems plausible considering her post on her Louis Vuitton bag... then this just makes no sense and just adds to the theory she is fake and a bit of a hypocrite.

Re: The Lindquists
Her kids aren’t vegan or plant based, but she’s trying to use them to sell vegan “herbivore” merch which is actually a rip off of other people
Re: The Lindquists
Does Elle not realize that the hormone altering drugs she has been on probably has caused her hair to go “curly”.

Re: The Lindquists
So is every single video for the next 8 months going to be pregnancy related?
As someone who struggled to get pregnant(so she says) and knows she has an audience of many women struggling with infertility, this almost seems cruel.
I’ve mentioned previously im also struggling with secondary infertility and I found today’s video hard to watch. Not because she annoys me sometimes but because it felt very in your face smug I’m pregnant and and here’s every detail.

Just today she’s complaining that she needs to buy a maternity dress for a “panel” she’s speaking on, like seriously she’s two months pregnant... don’t tell me your clothes don’t fit you.

Re: The Lindquists
I hear you.
You’re getting everything you want. Baby. New kitchen. And all she is doing is complaining about it.
I know feeling sick sucks. But keep it to yourself. Makes her sound ungrateful especially to her followers still struggling to conceive and let’s not forget her friend who just lost her baby.
