Status Updates From So Not Okay (Mean Girl Make...

Ophelia continues to suck so bad

I hope Ophelia dies at the end of the book

Ophelia sucks so baddddd

I don't understand why the bullies in this are like mad about these girls doing a report on mean people as a general concept

Ophelia continues to suck so bad

I really hate Ophelia

Again, irl bullying doesn't really look like this.

At all.

Making your kid go to school while their grandma who they're extremely close to is actively in the hospital and possibly dying is INSANE

Yeah so calling a person a dwarfism "like a coordinated toddler" feels deeply ableist holy fuck

WHAT IS LYDIA'S JOB BECAUSE IT KINDA SEEMS LIKE SHES A MAID

I am genuinely confused as to why her Historian Father's assistant seems to like

Live at their house??

Ophelia truly sucks so fucking bad I hate this child

Calling this a story from the bystander's perspective is wild bc these kids are just both victims and bullies themselves

Sorry the siblings in this family are named Ophelia and Hero???

If Ophelia doesn't die by the end of the book I'm going to be upset. She sucks. She sucks so hard.

Again, bullying irl just doesn't really look like this. This is cartoon villain shit.

It's so weird that the story keeps trying to act like these kids aren't also exceptionally mean

I genuinely don't know why the author gave this girl's dad an assistant who has dwarfism who is like at their house all the time. It feels weird and fetishising in a way I can't explain

And you might say "Corey I think you are Too Angry at this fictional child"

And yes. Yes I am.

"I'm not being a drama queen"

Correct! You're being a bitch! Which is a different thing!

"Ophelia was way too nice to say, That’s a great idea, Ginger, you go. But just in case . . ."

Yeah man Ophelia sucks actually and I wouldn't put it past her to say that

Not one single teenager in the entire history of the world has ever shortened attitude to 'tude

This is the most How Do You Do Fellow Kids dialogue possible

Why does the 12 year old protagonist think that this adult woman thinks she's a loser lmao

And why would she care

Mom come get me Nancy is being Weird About Natives Again

Like I cannot emphasize enough how much these girls suck actually

These girls are meant to be bystanders but they're actually just as exclusionary and bullying shits as the cartoonish over the top bullies only more realistic so it's worse

Part of the problem is that bullying doesn't actually look like this irl

Like this is movie bullying and it's the kind of bullying that actually gets shut down

Oh look her parents are misogynistic weirdos who discouraged her interest in bugs as being childish and something girls should grow out of and I'm meant to agree with that assessment 🙄

Well spiders don't really have breeds so jot that down
