This is, apparently, Shanin Blake. This is a picture from 2017.
Arguably, there's a lot to criticize her about, but her leading a carefree lifestyle and finding success in publicizing it doesn't seem like one.

Has anyone seen real dreadlocks before? These are obviously not real. Maybe she's not trying to pass them off as real, idk.


As someone who effectively lives in his grandmother's attic and "vibes" I am insulted by the vague comparison. I have to budget with my job damnit, I work as a courier one day a week.
The rest of the week is me doing autism and childhood PTSD things, so jacking off and playing Fallout NV. Also getting new scars via cats.
I also have a far better sense of fashion, THE 1940 SWEDISH TANKER GREAT COAT STAYS ON DURING SEX!
I may not understand much… but this I get
I for one just had a good job and zero life for 5 years and will kms when my savings run out in a year or two
You really shouldn't. But if you do, you should consider doing something that would make your death meaningful.
Not going to say anything further.
I survived death. 85-95% chance of dying - nobody's fault but my own. Let me tell ya: when I go down (probably being dragged to a concentration camp, since I am now an illegal person), it won't be quiet and bureaucratic.
Why not just work for 5 more years and build the buffer again instead of ending it?
Long life isn't everything. World is fucked
World has always been fucked (see Billy Joel's "we didn't start the fire" for simple reference). Life is what you make of it
We've had a habitable wilderness for all of human existence until now. Dystopian society is now The only option for living in most of the planet. World has not always been this fucked.
Edit: if you're not convinced, actuaries are predicting 2 billion climate deaths at +2C warming (we're at 1.7C now) and 4 billion deaths at 3C, which is the absolute minimum we're in for assuming we stopped all emissions tomorrow. Obviously that's not happening, so it's going to be way worse than that. Our existing billions of people also depend on a complex web of logistics systems which are currently falling apart or being dismantled. Google "complexity collapse."
One of you can have my ration. I'm not gonna fight you for it.
The Antarctic used to have a giant ozone hole. In the late 1960's, Lake Erie was dead from pollution. The Cuyahoga River in Ohio was so polluted it caught fire. Rain was so acidic that statues in cities were dissolving.
Read history instead of following social media hype. Despite Trump turning back the clock a few years, the environment has improved dramatically over the past 50 years.
Those examples you mention are pretty insignificant compared to the global warming crisis we are experiencing now. Reading history won't really help, because we have never faced what we have faced now in human history: manmade global warming in an industrialised, highly specialised society.
It's so weird seeing people making poor interpretations of another ethnicity's culture their entire identity. I wonder if there are weirdos in India rocking lederhosen or milkmaid outfits at random music festivals and ranting to strangers about Calvinism?
You should see some of the "American food" they sell in some parts of Europe and Asia. I feel like it's pretty typical everywhere to misunderstand and exoticize other cultures.
Not just typical. It should be celebrated. I for one throughly enjoy seeing cross cultural exchanges of any creative type. Exotic doesn't need to be derogatory or dehumanizing. (it's really unfortunate that it most often is.) Everybody is exotic somewhere.
I want to visit America one time just for the food. I keep hearing from American TV about twinkies and red vines and all kinds of stuff, then I try them whenever I get a chance here in the UK and theyre so bad. I need to know for sure whether we're getting a version that conforms to our food laws and they lose a lot in the process or if theyre really that terrible.
The store-bought junk food is pretty bad in America, to be fair. But foreigners also tend to overestimate their popularity, because American media is largely funded by product placement; The average American probably hasn’t eaten a Twinkie in months or even years.
Restaurants are where you’ll truly experience American food. You’ll be amazed at how much flavor is packed into each dish, and at how large the portions are. But the latter is largely a cultural thing; Americans typically have leftovers that they take home. Europeans will see the feast-sized portions on the table and immediately go “no wonder Americans are so fat…” In reality, Americans would expect to take half of it home.
The Japanese Elvis culture springs to mind.
Also, there are "cowboys" everywhere in the world.
You mentioned lederhosen and of course those types exist outside of Germany too.
I've got friends who are vibing without a job. The vibes are... not so good.
im so happy that i was blessed with parents who never struggled with money. nothing wrong with that. and yea, im hella vibing in life jobless <3
There are people vibing on fiends couches going from person to person. They they don't look like that.
Takes a certain kind of mentality to vibe on a fiend's couch
You are NOT wrong ;)
Fucking trust fund babies.
The best way to fight the system is to be jobless. Imagine if no one had a job? Bye bye capitalism. The end. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
"I don't want to work. I want to live in the woods and grow my own food and get back to nature." - City Hippie
i lost my job earlier this year, so i'm just vibin'. Not exactly ideal but I have some buffer time saved up.
That chick is annoying. I think I've blocked five or six video different clone accounts to stop getting her videos on the reels feed.
Wait, this is a specific person? I assumed OP was a stock photo. Is her shtick just being the 2020s version of a hippie?
Shanin Blake. She has crappy rap about shrooms and acid. She gets worse and worse as time goes by. She will have blasted face tats and be washed up in no time.
i wonder what they smell like, hahaha
I go to various small punk shows all the time often they're not even at a venue. Someone looking like this image is not the person who smells bad. Besides, a homeless crust or gutter punk isnt half as bad as when I meet a tech bro who looks crisp but never learned the art of washing their asshole
If they touched their butthole that'd make them gay, real men let the Musk build up to assert dominance.
Patchouli
Just skimmed through the thread and its filled with strawmen or plain misunderstanding.
Nobody is criticizing someone for having rich parents, even if said parents got that money from exploitation, heck even slavery.
No the criticism is that someone rich, thanks to their parents rather than their own effort, is promoting a way to reach such a position in life by replicating a path that is not real. If you have rich parents and you promote "making stuff" or writing a book, which you actually did yet never meaningfully contributing to the lifestyle you are promoting, you are basically dishonest.
TL;DR: nobody cares about that specific person or that situation, we are just tired of lies sold for profit.
Can't afford to have good vibes. Money brings you happiness and prettier partners.
Tbh, that's not true. If your standards are low enough, you can get by with very little money.
When I was at university (10 years ago) I could get by with 5-10h of work per week. I had a single-room flat and no car, a 10yo laptop, a cheapo second-hand phone and ate cheap food. The total amount of assistance that I received from my parents were birthday and christmas presents with a total worth of €700 over 5 years.
Now I have a larger flat, a wife, two kids and a car. Now I need much more money.
Of course, neither the cost nor the lifestyle are comparable.
