This is Michael Scott's thing. She pops up in these threads to tell us there are tons of GBCN-ers being dicks over on HIH, but never provides details further than that.
Personally, I am wondering who Michael Scott used to be.

Hi! Life is good, busy ... I’m happy, my girls are 4 and 2 now and so funny. I check in here on you ladies from time to time.
One thing I did think you all might find interesting: so, we had eight frozen donor eggs we never ended up using because we got pregnant with number two unintentionally. I was struggling to find a way to donate them back or something, because I didn’t want to just destroy them, and it was a legal nightmare. So I responded to a thread of questions on an international donor egg IG account, just as a fuck-it last resort “does anyone have experience re-donating frozen eggs to an individual?” A woman replied to me. Completely conincidentally, she lives about a mile away. We worked through a lawyer and now the eggs are hers and she is doing a transfer this afternoon. So if all goes well, my daughter could have a biological half-sibling at her high school. It seemed a little weird at first, but I have really warmed up to the idea and love the fact that I might be able to give Lydia a link to that side of her genetics that I wouldn’t have otherwise. The family is sweet and stable and they have an older child and I am kinda choked up thinking about it now.
Aww I now have a little boy from donated embryos so I know how much this means! Thats pretty amazing!

I truly don’t think she was an old or dramatic poster. And she didn’t say anyone was being a dick on HIH, lol. Anyway, I kind of like her 🤷🏼♀️.
I think it’s more of a “these people are posting with Booby like nothing happened” vs they’re being dicks.

Well, she said there are ex-posters being chummy with booby, a known racist. And I'm assuming she means people other than the the 2 we all know about.
I just hate the whole "I know stuff, but I'm not telling you" that she always comes in with.

Not ex-posters. Posters here. In this thread. And I feel like it's obvious because if it's obvious to me, it should be obvious to people posting in both places. Which again, are posters in here.
And sure, I'm stirring the pot. I should know better. But I don't think that I do the whole, "I know stuff, but I'm not telling you" a whole lot because when I do, the shit usually gets thrown my way instead of at (what I think) are the appropriate people.

I've lurked there (no posts), but I still have no idea who you're talking about.
I'd like to state for the record that the icedcoffee on HIH isn't me, just someone with similar tastes in beverages.
I can't follow that place. It moves at like 6 million mph.

i mean... that's exactly what you're doing unless you start naming names.

No shit, which why I added "whole lot".
You know... you could put in the work. Go over there.
(Don't be alarmed, I'm just angling for all of you guys to move over there so I can keep up on one board)

hard pass. i have tried lurking over there and it's too much. i just don't understand the schtick of "POSTERS RIGHT HERE UNDER YOUR NOSES" but then being coy.

To be fair, their average thread is one million pages long...lol
And they do seem like a nice board, I just don’t have interest in starting over?
Yeah, I read over there when it’s slow here, but I’m really bad at discerning the various tones and posting styles. Miso’s as big an AW as ever so I think I would have noticed her, but doubt I would have picked up on Farmvillelover. If miniroller ever starts posting there, though, I’ll notice, lol.

IDK, when I first started lurking you guys seemed like you were going a million mph. I guess you get used to it? While I think it's very similar to here, the board does have a different tone? I don't know. It takes time but they're good people. I dig the blind/celebrity gossip board and the UO/Confession threads.
I'm not particularly noticeable on either board, so I doubt that Michael Scott's talking about me, but I do post here and HIH. I am not chummy with anyone, ever, so I don't really see my posting somewhere as an endorsement of anyone. Re: booby in particular, she is such a predictable troll as to be boring, so I'm not sure why anyone engages with her at all. People can't seem to resist biting on what she puts out there though.

The only GBCN people that I'm aware of on HIH, either because they use the same/similar name or because they've outright said it, are Booby (ripper), Miso (soup), and Farmville (truckerhat). Elleblue (here) is elle (there)-- she has said that herself, so I'm not outing anyone. There is a poster named Joy who I'm assuming is the same both places, since it is the same avatar photo. I am there with the same name/photo. Oh and Michael Scott, obviously.
I'm not paying that close attention, but I feel like I would have noticed if one of the other very prolific GBCN posters were there just because they shared so many details over the years that would be hard to hide. There may be a lot of overlap with less noticeable posters, but I can't imagine that boring, semi-regular posters are the ones Michael Scott is getting worked up about.
Apparently she knows something I don't, but I basically just follow the blinds, whole30 and Jayme Closs thread.
Am i the only one who has no clue what HIH is? Apparently I do not spend enough time on here.
HiH is to The Bump what GBCN is to the The Nest. They’re both spin-off sites with a similar history. That’s why stirring up inter-board drama is a bit ridiculous. Sometimes someone gets run off from one site and tries to quietly (or not-so-quietly) begin anew on the other, and now HiH has a reputation for harboring our racists.
(I have no dog in this fight. I was active on TB back in the day and then came over here — I believe this site started first — and I don’t think I’m the only one who did a cross-board migration. It’s all fairly incestuous.)

I absolutely lurk the UO/FFFC threads. Every week.

Oh heeey. That’s me. ::awkward wave:: I go back to the beginning of time but fly under the radar.
Oh... the lamenting for the outed racists and very few words for WOC who left for the overt and covert support of them...
It’s 1:36 am on Wednesday so I’m more than a day late getting here but I see there’s a few more pages for me to read so I hope this point gets a bit more traction by the time I catch up...
I miss Kirkette - she was posting on another board I think (?) but I’m only here in the wee hours usually so I might just be missing her.
Other than many of our WOC, I seem to more miss the posters who have passed on like His, Racole, etc.
I'm good, just busy running my kids all over the damn place. Edith is in 5th grade and doing well. She plays the drums and ran cross country last fall. Freddie is in 1st grade and is doing team gymnastics so that takes up a lot of our time. He's also playing guitar, so his sweet baby hands are all calluses. My husband is still the best ever
