Uh oh nigga

It's over for her
One of her Instagram accounts was gone before the stream and it was private anyway. The summary for it indicated it was gore-related and she seems to be removing all the gore stuff as she becomes aware of it.
The picture of the IG profile is on page 1218, the previous page.

Frankly, she's dealing with it as well as one could in her shoes. Sam, chat, and people in Digdig.io reference her guro art; she ignores it and then deletes it as she comes across it without any fanfare. She's many things but unlikely to ever be a cow.
 


The clip I mentioned in Sneedchat. Sylvia hates her on sight, and her Canadian accent is extreme for some reason but fades rapidly.

It is funny with the power of retrospection to see how Letty really moves everyone in the house into her orbit. Just after this she decides she wants to play a board game and somehow ropes Damiel into setting up Mousetrap. Then she says she will go upstairs and look at the beds and announces that she's going to pick one when she does, and all the girls go with her. She has that charismatic force and I don't think she knows.

Letty wins Sylvia over moments later, praising her for having packed well in advance and asking about her collage and shit. Man, I think watching this from the start is going to explain why they piled on Letty in the third act, they were nerfing her lol.

I think the producers really expected the fish to feel inherently incentivized to hog the spotlight and entertain all the time in order to build their brands, but that never took for whatever reason, maybe because the show is 24 hours so it's easy to procrastinate or feel exhausted or bored, or because the double elimination early on put them all into survival mode. In season 2 I would probably introduce a gentle encouragement system, like audience tipping the fish with fish coins they could spend in a commissary, to remind all the fish that they can be rewarded by paypigs for being fun to watch, not just Josie.
I think it's really hard to make interesting things happen unprompted without it coming off as a bit forced. We do have to remember that the people being brought on here aren't actors. Producers need to plan interesting challenges ahead of time and provide enough props or tools to enable the fish to tackle a challenge in their own unique way. Just going off the cuff is absolutely retarded and it just devolves into production resorting to making the fish drink constantly because it's the easiest and laziest way to make them interesting. Fish don't need to directly know how popular they are, they don't need to know that they're competing for attention. They should however be rewarded for creativity or actually being entertaining which can easily be left to the audience to purchase rewards for the fish.

Also, just to reiterate production should NOT be painting any fish negatively on the show via social media UNLESS they're painting ALL fish negatively. You CAN'T have ONE villain in Hellhouse, ALL contestants must be villains, or else the audience will not be inclined to go against all fish.
 
Josie's big secret was revealed mid-stream it turns out.
 
Jon finds out the contract mentioned all future earnings have a percentage go to Sam from frank on an Instagram live

 
I think we're hearing this particular tidbit for the first time, on Vance's stream.
Jet had alluded to having to take Vance downstairs during the schizo bit to "check on him," which sounded like dogshit when he said it because obviously they wouldn't believe he was really going nuts if they just told him to pretend to go nuts.

Vance clarified - he was brought downstairs and his mom was on the phone worried about him going crazy.

I could see there being a third layer to this that Vance isn't aware of, like maybe they called his mom and said "can you talk to Vance, he's been losing it on the show, we think something is wrong," but either way is equally funny.

He said after that he thought, "I'm pretty sure I'm gonna win this challenge."

I think a lot of the bits that the fish think are funny they don't realize what made them funny, still. There's some moments, like how I think they might've called his mom to set that bit up, where the fish will probably not register that there was a lie at the root of what was happening in the tank until months from now when it'll unexpectedly come to light, like $20 in a winter coat pocket.
 
Sam was referenced in fairly mainstream rap duo $uicideboy$'s song "whatwhat".
The music video also showed a fishtank during this line


"Sam "Wetto" Hyde cause I always get away with it"

My only regret is that they aren't both locked in a house on the Massachusetts/New Hampshire border to settle this in front of cameras.

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

Lol, why would Betty make a joke about Jon's speech impediment? I mean it's pretty obvious he doesn't like it and they weren't ever friends so why would she think it would be a good idea to joke about something like that when you aren't even close? She's really not bright.
 
Jon is incredibly thin skinned. For a guy who calls himself the top J and larps as an Alpha male all it took was a poke at his speech impedment for him to have a total meltdown.
 
Jon is funny to me. He seems like a retarded 3 legged puppy so its a little endearing that theres something obviously wrong with him--you kinda want to watch him and kinda guide or protect him, but hes pissed off at having 3 legs so hes barking and picking fights trying to prove himself, but hes also hopping around and stumbling into shit and he slams into your table leg and spills your drink then gets upset and runs off when it makes a loud noise and spills on him.

Like it just seems like it would be hard to take him seriously especially when hes going 'BEGONE SWUT!' Jon thats not how the quote goes.
 
Josie is asking for room pics so she can review them in her next stream. Errol Baer, the weirdo who got one of her drawings tattooed on his leg, has obliged.

20230608_Errol Baer - @Sheep_Xing Here ya go! Complete with kitties 😎_1666904690041184265.mp4
I spy: Taiko drum master, a printer, an obscene amount of physical media for 2023, 11 plushies (Llama, Pikachu, Popuko, Gengar) visible in the first shot alone in the bedroom of a grown man, industrial amount of kitty litter, 2 water bottles, 1 beer, 2 cats, a 3D printer, window mounted fans, a full-size CRT with what looks like VCR and Dreamcast and other outdated bullshit underneath it, two video game streams going at the same time, some 3D printed bullshit on his desk, 4 Monster cans...

Pretty bad but I was expecting worse. Do you think he cleaned up?
