Status Updates From So Not Okay: An Honest Look...

Mom come get me Nancy is being weird about people w dwarfism again

Like this is not bully shit this is supervillain shit

Has anyone ever ACTUALLY been shoved into a locker and then the locker shut?

The bully characters how now uh

Kidnapped

Our protagonist

WHAT IS LYDIA'S JOB

Why do half of the moms in this universe think they can solve bullying by banning their kids, who are being bullied, from talking to their friends, who are also being bullied

Also none of these kids are bystanders at this point so idk why this book claims to be from the bystander's perspective

As an adult who was bullied so badly as a child I have a dissociative disorder Ophelia and her mom can both go to hell for implying bullying victims are exaggerating the cruelty of other children

Peer abuse has long lasting consequences. It ruins lives.

"Sheep never fight back"

It's cute you think that author but it just tells me you've never interacted with sheep before

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
