Her account is here
I won’t lie… I am still very surprised that she actually did kick it. Was a uno reverse card.

She was the perfect cow. So damn hilarious. I miss her also.
I was so firmly in the "she's faking it" camp that I refused to believe it even after her death had been confirmed.
There was a hardcore contingent of a few of us who steadfastly stuck to our guns with various theories, but alas, our lass had passed.
@GenociderSyo and I ended up watching her funeral stream together over Telegram, which was more entertaining than I'd anticipated.
I was disappointed not to see her neck brace sitting proudly on the table at the front.
The wheelchair was there though.

I just got caught in a recursive trap.
"This guy says he's got like 50 IQ but the proof he posted shows he's got like 75IQ... But if he didn't realize how stupid this all looks, he probably is at least a little retarded... maybe a lot retarded?" His proof of being retarded is so retarded that it starts to loop back around to making me think he's retarded.
The motivation for wanting to be seen as 50IQ vs. something more midwit/generically slow could be a few things. Weird age regression/kink stuff that's popular in the circles in this thread. But mostly because 50IQ probably feels like a better excuse, a "I can do no wrong because I'm like an innocent child and no one should hold me to any standards" level of retardation. Not to mention the munching angle obviously.
Just talking as if this is Chris and not whoever else.

Image search doesn’t yield any other results than this page, so let’s assume the WAIS-IV testing really belongs to someone Rose knows - or more likely, they’re HER results since I’m 100 % convinced she at some point has faked being intellectually disabled.
It doesn’t show an IQ of 50, more like 70-80, right? Granted, there is a slight possibility that the scores from the subtests are weighted into the results somehow but I really don’t get anything near an IQ of 50 from this chart.
Since there is a Grade Equivalence column I’m also guessing this is the test of someone in high school, because a grade 9 equivalence is Average?
TLDR: stupid, but not THAT stupid. Faking a test stupid, really.

As promised, here's the one that kept me laughing the whole time Rose had me too angry to laugh at the rest of these girls. Unlike the sociopathic sex pest who can now add "groomed a retard" to her list of illustrious life accomplishments, this one is benign. The only people she's taking along for this ride are her ultra-enabling, wealthy family who are cheerfully in on the plot and her braindead idle rich friends who get off on being there for her in her time of need so they can post about it on their own socials. She doesn't have a service animal or kids, and for the last year and change she has exclusively seen pay-for-pay quacks at a clinic in another country so the bongs won't even shit their pip-pip-cheerios about her wasting NHS resources. AND! Almost all of her claims are unique in the thread. She has her standard zebra lies but for the most part she is really winning for creativity here.
So remember Christine Milleneaux/Carrie Earl, our munchie visitor who claimed to have undiagnosed lupus but who was obsessed with Victorian tuberculosis chic and wanted to take photos of herself laying in her sick bed on crisp white sheets, surrounded by her loved ones and vases of fresh cut flowers? Wouldn't it be funny if one of these girls actually claims she's dying of tuberculosis so she can take photos of herself laying in her sick bed on crisp white sheets, surrounded by her loved ones and vases of fresh cut flowers?
Tilly Rose, d/b/a ThatTillyRose and ThatOxfordGirl, might be the most shallow individual I've ever written about. Aesthetics-obsessed to the exclusion of all else, she studied literature at Oxford because she wanted to have many photos taken of her holding a book in pretty buildings. She was tossed out into a world where no one cared about the insipid Mary Sue sick fic novel she wrote so plan B: live the fiction then sell it as a memoir. Yes really. it's set to be released in April and she even writes her instagram posts as "chapters" including dialogue and scene setting.
Alright so far we have an incredibly shallow young woman whose entire life since she was a child was wrapped up in going to Oxford and now that she's graduated she's floundering. She thought she would become an author but soon learned that no one in the book world gave a shit about her puddle-deep chick fic novel, and the only way she can make a living is to endlessly dwell on the only four years of her life when she was actually accomplishing her goals. She may or may not have had tuberculosis when she was younger but the doctor who diagnosed her got fired for watching dog porn on his work computer, and now she's claiming extremely unstable Addison's disease for which she is receiving eye watering doses of steroids but having none of the typical steroid side effects.
Tune in next time when Tilly decides to spend her summer putting on a show in a local hospital.

The oldest accounts I can find for Tilly date to her days at Oxford University, when she was @ThatOxfordGirl. She probably had others before it since as we will see, Tilly is a dirty deleter who doesn't want you to know about her past or her position in the socioeconomic pecking order. It's also near impossible to find her outside of her curated social media brand which leads me to believe Rose is her middle name, but my skills are useless here. I scanned her socials and did my usual search engine wizardry but can't find a surname. No bother, she's funny enough without knowing it. Her account was, according to her, to give prospective students an insider's look at getting into Oxford University and student life at the school.
it starts with an intro about how she visited Oxford at age 10 on a family vacation and knew then she wanted to go there. She had no idea what she wanted to go to school for even into her teen years. She waited until she took her GCSE to decide that literature gave her the best chance, which meant she now had to read actual books instead of terrible chick lit. I'm American and I don't really understand how the UK education system works, so maybe that's normal there. But I've never heard of someone deciding what they wanted to do with their whole life based on which subject might get them into a particular school. I also didn't really hang out with the Ivy League aspiration set though.
I also don't know what AS Levels are. This is going swimmingly. She took History, Spanish, English, and Hpolitics.
It's the TOP UNIVERSITY IN THE WORLD.
There is something really off-putting about this girl's face. Like every photo feels like stock photography where she wasn't given enough direction or something.
She doesn't seem to actually have any intellectual interest in the subject she's studying or the academic record of the university in general. It's all aesthetics. Even when she talks about the author she "immersed" herself in, it's a perfect pink book on her desk with matching, fresh cut flowers. If someone asked to borrow your favorite book off your shelf, what would you hand them? I know mine won't look great on your perfectly curated insta feed after 30 years of being read, re-read, dogearred, notated, and thrown in backpacks and purses.
Oxford English Literature major. Balled her eyes out. I'm only skimming her posts but they're full of incorrect homophones and big-money words she does not understand the nuance of.
See this is what I mean. it's not that she wants to get the top tier education this school can provide. It's that if she gets in she gets pretty architecture with wisteria to be her social media backgrounds.
The mouth is smiling but the eyes are saying "helter skelter."
i feel like I should like this as a certified architectural history slut but she's not telling me anything interesting. Nothing is inspiring me to click the links because I'm sure it's just more braindead prose about how she felt she really would look good in photos with that as the backdrop. CLICK SPOILER BELOW FOR POOPY PANTS HISTORIAN TANTRUM.
LMAO I'm way too American for this. Her college has a somolier.
There is not a human soul behind these eyes and you can't convince me there is.
We're not going to dwell too much on her Oxford content because it's thousands of posts and boring as shit. 99% of it is "you can eat dinner in the Hairy Pooter dining hall! Wouldn't that look good for your instagram feed? Look at the beautiful lawns you aren't allowed to walk on!" Almost nothing about her academic experience or lack thereof, almost nothing personal and what little info she does give about herself is mostly related to partying and food. Not a single mention of her health.
My culture is not your costume, Tilly.
I know, low hanging fruit to keep talking about how this girl is funny-lookin' but it's not that she's ugly. She's vaguely inhuman. She has so many photos where she's posed, smiling at an everyday object like she's never seen it before and is amazed, or weirdly pursing her lips in an attempt to appear deep in thought and my brain just screams "that's a replicant, fucking kill it." It goes beyond the typical inauthenticity you get from an influencer-type and into uncanny valley. Even Andie Proskus sometimes looks like she experiences human emotions but Tilly looks like there's something dark going on in there and I should be afraid.

Many American universities are learning that the "tear it down and replace it with a brand new facility that is going to look very of-its-era in ten years" method is not working out so well if you can't afford to continually update your building stock. The grad school I went to was heavily developed in the 70s and early 80s and it has aged about as well as you can imagine. It's all stained concrete, ribbon windows, watered down Brutalist abortions plopped in the middle of a city where most of the surrounding architecture dates to the ornate days of the late 1800s so it looks out of place. It does not help that most of the campus faces inward with the doors on the quad and there's almost no entry or features on the outward-facing sides. The primary ingress/egress is a featureless, alley-like gateway that is barely lit and downright creepy at night. Your first impression as a prospective student or the parents thereof approaching the school in the modern era is it feels oppressive and prison-like, like you aren't welcome there but have no reason to want to be there anyway.
Compare to something like the law quad on UMichigan's campus which one might think was very, very old but it actually mostly dates to the 1920s through the 40s. It also mostly opens inward to a quad with very little access from the exterior to keep the riff-raff from feeling welcome inside. But the style and magnitude of the architecture gives students and their families a sense of stability. When you enter, it's through a tremendous stone arch topped with spires and it all feels very impressive and permanent. It tells you this has always been here, it always will be here, if I go here my education will mean something. It's because it uses a style that heavily draws on genuinely old campuses like Oxford. This style is so good at convincing people this is a prestigious institution that isn't going anywhere that it's currently having a revival, with universities like Yale choosing to build new facilities that look like they were plucked from an ancient city in England rather than the latest in flimsy glass box construction. It even has a name reflective of this purpose: Collegiate Gothic.
So it's kind of fucking with my head that I'm seeing photos of the actual buildings those are based on, ones I know almost nothing about because my professional concern is with the American buildings, but I just don't fucking care. I should care but she's given me no reason to. I know clicking those links won't give me any information. The pictures are pretty but they're not inspiring me to do too much extra research. It's hard for me to even remember those are the real deal because she's doing little to remind me that yes they really are that old. She could show me some stairs worn from centuries of foot traffic, some obsolete ancient technology left in situ, a stone with an impressively old date carved in. Instead it's just "look! pretty! doesn't it remind you of Harry Potter/Narnia/insert media franchise? I looked very good inside this building!"
What a fucking waste. She might as well have gone to school at Disneyland.

By mid-2018 she has a whole brand with "TOG ambassadors" on campus writing for her and interviewing students about the important issues like which local cafes make the cutest lattes and fanciest cocktails.
Isn't water amazing?
Aren't feet amazing?
Finally, we get our very first truly interesting post. Age 10 she visited Oxford and decided she wanted to go. A year later she was stricken with an illness that took her out of school for a long time. When she did attend it was at state school (I'm assuming this is equivalent to public school here and your quality varies based on location.). She had to teach herself from hospital beds but she succeeded! We learn she actually already graduated Oxford and she had to undergo 18 months of "life saving treatment" for this health issue while she was there because Oxford's intense schedule was just so hard on her body. She was too sick to work after graduation so she decided to start her brand, writing about her time at school. So either she was really sick with something and relapsed in the pressure cooker of an elite university (entirely possible, especially if it was something like an autoimmune disease or an eating disorder) or this is our typical munchie larp, trying to retcon her childhood to justify her present state. But we'll give her some space. I like to give the benefit of the doubt until I can't. I'd rather believe them and feel like a smacked ass than accuse them of lying when there's some real shit going on.
Isn't sublimating carbon dioxide amazing?
Isn't this mortar board amazing?
Look how deep in thought I am with my very strange unnatural posture.
Isn't this van amazing?
Aren't these desserts amazing? I'm sorry it never stops making me laugh how inhuman this chick is. Even if she's not lying about being sick I'd be laughing at how strange she is. And I just realized who she reminds me of and hope someone else will be nostalgic with me.
Does anyone else remember AlyRealRecover? If you don't know Aly she was a skelly from Milan whose entire feed consisted of her staring at food with a smile on her face and absolute stone-cold terror in her eyes. Her parents took her out for food or cooked for her multiple times per day and it was always drowned in oil (!) and FREAKIN LUSH and delish and she was already so over her usual calories but she ate a HUGE plate anyway because it was her first EVER time eating this (!!!) and she was dang proud of herself for this superlicious #RECOVERYWIN! She lost weight and ended up inpatient a few times while still claiming she was doing great in at-home recovery and the weeks of tube feeds and monitored meals were just a little extra support to make sure she was on track.
She also would make these hilarious "bites" in her food.
In 2016 she got hit by a car and broke her leg. She had to use a wheelchair for months, even after the cast was off, because her bird bones were crumbling. This seemed to be her come-to-Jesus. Within a year she was weight restored and then the spoopy skellies haunting LCF got bored and stopped talking about her. In 2025 she's still weigh restored, travels, goes to EDM fests, and never posts about food. Anyway, Tilly's weird stock photo-esque feed of her smiling at assorted objects reminded me of Aly's freakin' CREAMY and CHEESY pasta dishes and the eyes that always gave her away. Feels good. Cozy. Like home.
Another little cake crumb: the year she sat her GCSE she had a major surgery and missed most of the term. The school suggested she not even bother with the GCSE. She sure showed them!
She's written a 'fun and quirky' book about life at Oxford. Surprisingly, it's not a memoir, and it's also not a pay-to-play vanity press that picked her up. It's basically a travel guide for new and prospective students teaching them all the little traditions and terminology of Oxford culture. The sole negative review on amazon is the same critique I have: she's not a very good writer and her opinions are about as deep as a puddle. Other than that it's a bunch of people saying it helped them through the application/interview process or was a fun read for someone who dreamed of going to Oxford, that kind of thing. Fine.
But oh boy howdy. Here's her bio, updated several years after the book came out. Tilly claims to have contracted tuberculosis after eating cereal with unpasteurized milk at age 5. Age 5? Before it was that she got sick at age 11, a year after visiting Oxford. M. bovis can cause zoonotic tuberculosis in humans and does at a rate of a few hundred thousand people a year globally, and it can remain latent in your system for years before sickening you. But it's no longer 1870; we know what tuberculosis is and how to test for it and treat it now. Tilly isn't squatting in some Dalit ghetto in Bangalore unable to access antibiotics. Her enrollment in state school has also been completely eliminated from this version of her bootstrap story and instead she is a precocious autodidact. In 2021 she made a sicksta and she's now writing a book about mean doctors who don't believe her. LET'S FUCKIN' GOOOOOOO.
But first we have to prepare for the journey and that means it's back to Oxford where opening day is amazing
And this pho is amazing.
And these leaves are amazing.
And this sign is amazing
And this courtyard is amazing. (I'll give her this one, I would also be making that face if I was standing in that spot.)

Another post about how great she is that gives away more of her medical background: while at Oxford she was seeking every test and treatment under the sun for a disease that no one could figure out. Twice she was told she would die (x) but then one hospital admission they tested her for TB and found out she had an active TB infection that she'd been living with for 13 years. This led to 18 months of "life saving chemotherapy". I'm gonna need to see what she's calling chemotherapy here, treatment for TB is antibiotics and unless she was unfortunate enough to have extensively resistant TB there's very little chance she got anything other than that, and that's if we even believe she was treated for it at all. Oxford said she needed to leave if she was that sick so she stopped being sick long enough to graduate. This time I will click that link thank u tilly.
I am being rewarded for my patience. Hundreds of boring Oxford posts have led me here. In her second year of Oxford she got pneumonia (again!) that took her out of commission for six weeks of an eight-week term. The school told her she had to take a year off to get better but after over 15 hospitals and 30 consultants she knew she wouldn't. After the TB diagnosis she went into anaphylactic shock from the antibiotics and therefore they started her on a chemo drug for multi-resistant TB. Again I'm gonna need to know what the drug is before I believe it was chemotherapy in the popular understanding of that word. She concludes by saying this little vanity project was supposed to just be a stop-gap in her resume but now it's her life.
In this boring post she tags her personal account @thattillyrose. Unfortunately if there was content before November 2020 - and there almost definitely was - it's all wiped out.
But we do get a news video. She starts off by saying that she gets brushed off because she's white, blonde, and articulate and therefore seen as being the typical Oxford student but akshully she's part of the growing population of disadvantaged minorities. Way to give away the game Tilly! Now I'm really going to need some proof that she was sick before she went to Oxford. So far we just have trust-me-bro. The video doesn't add much except it proves she actually is capable of looking like a human. One of the things about all her photos and even her little video reels is that her eyebrows never fucking move. I considered she was already getting botox by her early 20s but this video proves she is totally capable of moving her eyebrows in the normal fashion and making facial expressions that are semi-appropriate to the words she's saying. Archived here.
She goes to Tokyo to talk to students about her Oxford experience.
RIP to one of my favorite instagram backgrounds
She was an extra in one of the Hairy Pooter movies.
Isn't this table setting amazing?
Isn't this tree trunk amazing?
Isn't this gravel path amazing?
Isn't this boho-style grocery basket of snacks amazing?
She mentions her health occasionally but it's nothing interesting.
Isn't this other person's bicycle amazing?
For the most part the insta/blog isn't her anymore. It's her team of ambassadors writing under the "That Oxford Girl" brand. In June 2019 an article comes out titled "The Woman who Revolutionized Access at Oxford University: an interview with Tilly Rose." What a hyperbolic title. This author acts like Tilly was poised for a promising and high paying career but chose to sacrifice it to demand Oxford diversify its student body.
I swear this chick is from another planet. The mouthpiece of the travel mug is closed and off to the side. why the fuck is she holding it like she's just about to bring it to her mouth for a sip? This is the sort of thing where when it happens to you IRL you try to casually look around to make sure no one saw.
TIL page boy is not just a hair style or a medieval messenger. It is the actual term for the person whose job it is to hold up the ceremonial robes of this academic asshole as he walks around. I'm sure this shit is to England as geisha is to Japan, a relic that still exists in some small capacity, but it's still making me laugh. So just, historian ha-has, when we Americans talk about modern history we're usually talking post-WWII: suburbanization, abundant mass-produced consumer goods, the Cold War, the automobile becoming ubiquitous and often necessary, that sort of thing. When British historians talk about modern history they mean post-1680s. They feel an outrageous sense of cultural superiority because of this so it's fun to remember that this is the kind of heritage we're talking about. This doofus walking around in an impractical costume all day like he's Batman.
Oxford magazine publishes a piece about her. The only interesting thing is that it claims she's cured of the TB after her chemo. Well that's nice. At least whatever treatment she got worked. Better living through chemistry n' whatnot.
Another. She's up to 500k followers.
She was accepted to some kind of leadership workshop for women at Oxford. I like the obvious man in the back.
More articles. This second one is pretty interesting. First we learn she's from High Wycombe and from my googlin' I learned this either means she's from that town proper, which is overpriced due to being commuter distance to London but not much to write home about, or she's from one of its outlying villages in which case her family is probably fucking loaded. i wonder which one it could be. We learn her doctor is Peter Davies of Liverpool. Let's see what he's like.
...He got fired for using NHS computers to watch dog porn after his wife said he wasn't allowed to watch dog porn on the home computer anymore. And here I thought we were going to find our standard pay-for-play quack. He's the real deal and wrote the modern NHS guidelines on TB treatment (between vigorous goon sessions, I'm sure). i've noticed sometimes these older, nearing-retirement experts aren't really poised to deal with the social media/Internet factor where your patients show up knowing what disease they want, what testing it needs, and what treatments they will accept. A few, like Rodney Grahame who once practiced at some pretty prestigious hospitals in London, ended up targeted by these girls for this reason. He wasn't prepared for a mob of benignly hypermobile former dancers with eating disorders coming to his office reporting a lifetime of dislocations, gastrointestinal disease, and heart problems so he diagnosed them all with the combo platter. They all lost their shit when he retired and his colleagues said they were fine. Although I have to laugh that in this case it's a tuberculosis specialist being targeted by someone who just spent years reading literature including, I'm sure, some written by people romanticising that disease. Anyway Dr. Dogfucker was all but retired from practice when he got caught cranking the hog and he has done the "full repentance, haven't glanced at sexy horse cocks once since i was caught, I actually wanted you to catch me so I could stop, victim of the Internet" thing porn-addicted people like to do when their depravity is exposed. Lookin' at you, Rose.
In September the Youtube starts. I cannot stand this woman's accent and she also does that super annoying thing some people do where they suction their tongue to the roof of their mouth and then pull it off making an audible clicking, sucking, please make it stop sound while trying to think of the next word she wants to say. I would prefer one of the singers over listening to this. It's just the same story about how she went to Oxford despite her illness through hard work and determination then got sick and almost didn't graduate, but at least it's more proof that she can move her entire face.
Most of the other videos are just her usual oxford content but this one's kind of interesting: how she got a book deal. After Oxford she wrote the kind of cheesy chick lit shit she actually enjoys reading and sent it out to a bunch of literary agents who all rejected her, with the consensus being that her writing is okay but her story is unoriginal and boring. In later posts we'll learn it's historical fiction about a young woman who goes to Oxford and falls in love which is just her life, likely set at some point within the last 100 years since that's how long Oxford's been allowing women (a fact she taught me so I know she knows this). This rejection made her start the blog to prove she could get an audience for her writing and then once she did that she came up with the idea of making a fun, quirky, colorful book about Oxford when all the existing ones are very serious. She then wrote a proposal explaining she had a baked-in audience that was growing and an original concept as compared to existing books on the market and sent it to agents. Again, no one wants her dumb book. In the end a publisher known for their non fiction and self help offerings cold called her based on the popularity of her blog.
She finishes that workshop thing and jumps barefoot in front of the building, as one does.
Isn't this poster board amazing?
Isn't this doorway amazing?
By the end of the year nearly all her content is #ads or things she was #gifted or #invited to in exchange for a review. the shit that isn't is just a loop of the same shit she's been posting for years. Good luck on your exams! Good luck writing your statements! Good luck at your interviews!
If you want a laugh, go look up this apartment building and click on the virtual tours for any unit. $1800 USD for a ~200sq foot studio where your bed is next to the stove and your toilet is in your shower. I'll stop complaining about my rent for a two story house in a good neighborhood now, lol.
Aren't these balls amazing?
Isn't this window sill amazing?
She's on the news. I thought she was photoshopped in at first because several posts in a row had her doing this exact same head tilt and "smile."
"Hello, patrons of this coffee shop! Did you know I, Tilly Rose, Oxford Graduate and member of the intelligentsia, have written a book?" This is actually way more cringe to me than the Broadway set who belt out show tunes in the grocery store, just coming from someone who wants to die of embarrassment every time someone acknowledges my writing. If my actual friends knew this is what I'm doing when I say I have plans, sitting in front of my computer drinking and laughing at my own jokes, I'd probably suck start a shotgun.
I am being rewarded for my patience. Hundreds of boring Oxford posts have led me here. In her second year of Oxford she got pneumonia (again!) that took her out of commission for six weeks of an eight-week term. The school told her she had to take a year off to get better but after over 15 hospitals and 30 consultants she knew she wouldn't. After the TB diagnosis she went into anaphylactic shock from the antibiotics and therefore they started her on a chemo drug for multi-resistant TB. Again I'm gonna need to know what the drug is before I believe it was chemotherapy in the popular understanding of that word. She concludes by saying this little vanity project was supposed to just be a stop-gap in her resume but now it's her life.
In this boring post she tags her personal account @thattillyrose. Unfortunately if there was content before November 2020 - and there almost definitely was - it's all wiped out.
But we do get a news video. She starts off by saying that she gets brushed off because she's white, blonde, and articulate and therefore seen as being the typical Oxford student but akshully she's part of the growing population of disadvantaged minorities. Way to give away the game Tilly! Now I'm really going to need some proof that she was sick before she went to Oxford. So far we just have trust-me-bro.

If my actual friends knew this is what I'm doing when I say I have plans, sitting in front of my computer drinking and laughing at my own jokes, I'd probably suck start a shotgun.
Finally. It's covidtide and that means she can't go prance around Oxford campus living out her university years forever anymore. Stripped of her only identity for the past however many years she's about to rocket herself back to her previous identity: that munchausen girl. First she's in iso because someone in her household caught the bug.
Oh hi mom, you look ...as expected.
This project is deceased. For a long time her content is the same kind of loop my Disney munchies got in: she had nothing new to post but didn't want to become irrelevant so she posted old photos at Oxford with captions about how she wished she was back there. Boring, not wasting my time.
I don't know why she thinks this is a good pose. It just makes her look like shes slow in the mind and distracted by something off-camera.
She starts something called nanovert. She partners with different companies and if you sign up you get entered for a chance to win a product or experience from them, some kind of discount in exchange for posting about their product. Dumb influencer shit. It fizzles out in October.
Isn't this cookware amazing?
As the pandemic wears on Tilly starts sliding back towards illness as her identity. She's highlighting chronic illness accounts on her Oxford page. M.E. is myalgic encephalomyelitis, better known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
She's starting a Continuing Ed creative writing program.
Then the announcement: she's going to start talking about her illness on Youtube.
The video is great. We get an obviously staged shot of her overfilling her pill caddy with supplements to the point where you couldn't close it if you tried. After way too long telling the same story about getting into Oxford and how she got diagnosed with TB and the whole chemo story she tells us that for the last two years she's been dealing with a new problem. If you noticed her weight gain, it's not the Covid 15. She started having weird symptoms and was finally rushed to the hospital where she was found to be in an adrenal crisis. She'd been seeing every -ologist under the sun before one told her it was Adrenal Insufficiency and she would be steroid dependent for the rest of her life. She's relieved to find out she has this life threatening condition because it means she has a name for her vague array of constitutional symptoms. Normal human reaction. However, she's not stable on medication and has had 20+ adrenal crises since then. When she has one of these they rush her to the ER where she gets pumped full of steroids and screams and wails to be released. I mean. if she's telling the truth about having it, and she might be if whatever drug combo she got for the alleged tuberculosis or repeated bouts of pneumonia deep fried her adrenals, then I'm thinking she's not taking her steroids outside the hospital and it's because they make you into an obese eat-monster. She now has a cortisol pump that delivers a steady dose to her all day and even that isn't working. She's getting worse.
She got a good reaction for this so now it's all she wants to talk about. This account she tags is dead.
She starts a Tiktok. A lot of content was deleted but is cross-posted to Instagram. None of it is interesting, just more 'did u know oxford?' fluff
We finally are in November 2020 which is the current start of her personal insta, ThatTillyRose, where she's going to tell us all about her special illness. This account starts in the midst of Britain deciding to go to a second lockdown after loosening up the first one. Here she tells she had a four hour MRI.
Just an aside this girl uses the word "autumnal" more than anyone I have ever seen. I don't know why that's stuck out to me. Maybe it's common in British English, but the only Americans I ever hear use that word are GOOP types who are trying to sound more sophisticated than the "Fall Y'all" pumpkin spice girls.
Showing off her steroid pump.
She's gotten a freestyle libre after some concerning test results with high triglycerides and blood sugar. Lol so headcannon accepted, she was not taking steroids out of the hospital and now that she has the pump she's experiencing all the fun they can bring you.
Of course, her new book is about her favorite subjects: oxford and herself.
She's starting a new unnamed treatment for a new unnamed condition that might be affecting her adrenal glands. You know what will crash your adrenals? Corticosteroids. That's why you can't go off steroids suddenly and why if you've ever had the one week pack of Satans tic-tacs for a respiratory infection it's a mondo dose on day one tapering to a single pill.
Speaking of pills have some porn! Mid 5 orange boi is midodrine, 2Z1 is the beta blocker propranolol, BL10 is probably the antihistamine cetirizine, blue with the D are amitryptiline, big grey round guy in the middle is ritalin, the rest I got nothin'.
For her end of year post we learn in January she was hospitalized in Newcastle and Oxford and that her pump gives her 90mg of hydrocortisone a day.
In 2021 she promises she WILL publish her vanity Mary Sue novel Making Rosa and her health WILL improve, just like she said she was going to get into Oxford and she did!
And now she's writing her posts as if she's writing a novel. Her doctors didn't want her staying on this high dose of steroid and said she'd be obese, bingeing, covered in hair and zits, and her bones will crumble. But as we will see, Tilly is always an anomaly in every single situation she describes. She has been on 90mg daily hydrocortisone for a year and had no side effects but it's also not controlling her adrenal crises as well as it should be.
Her problems are because her tuberculosis returned. I'm not gonna lie, I really can't wrap my head around this one yet. One minute I think the adrenal issue is real, induced by TB or its treatment, and she's not steroid dosing herself properly which keeps her sick. The next I think it's all fake. I feel out of my element when it's not the same potsie zebra lies they're all telling, but also that's what I crave. Change, something different and new!
She gets her first dose of covid vaccine in February 2021. Date lines up with the days they started allowing vaccinations for people who were ill but not critical. Asthmatics and whatnot.
Her TB drugs thin her blood so much that changing her steroid pump makes her spray blood all over the room. Metal.

Alright so far we have an incredibly shallow young woman whose entire life since she was a child was wrapped up in going to Oxford and now that she's graduated she's floundering. She thought she would become an author but soon learned that no one in the book world gave a shit about her puddle-deep chick fic novel, and the only way she can make a living is to endlessly dwell on the only four years of her life when she was actually accomplishing her goals. She may or may not have had tuberculosis when she was younger but the doctor who diagnosed her got fired for watching dog porn on his work computer, and now she's claiming extremely unstable Addison's disease for which she is receiving eye watering doses of steroids but having none of the typical steroid side effects.
Tune in next time when Tilly decides to spend her summer putting on a show in a local hospital.

If she actually had drug resistant TB, there's absolutely no fucking way she was attending university or even allowed to leave her place of residence and/or a hospital room. Also, if her story was true (obviously it's not, hence her being in the munchie thread), it would have made the news. That's a serious public safety issue - TB outbreaks almost always make the news (at least here in the US). Heck, here's a TB news story from a week ago, about a teenager who got TB & defied quarantine going to school.

Ah wonderful! Tilly is my favourite Very Obviously Faking and Making Some Grifter Rich girlie (second only to my pet munchie the violinist, who mysteriously became very sick as soon as it seemed that she was very much able to do things if she goes to rehab and works on her deconditioning).
Both these girlies are interesting because they're from universal healthcare countries that have had to go out of the country to find someone who will let them continue their fakery.
Also I never understood why everything was in chapters, so pretentious.
Can't wait for you all to see how ridiculous and super special and rare she is and how her mother seems to be besotted with anyone who says they'll admit her for some more tests.
also her stupid fucking face patches

Although I agree there is something uncanny valley about Tilly, I'll come to her defence here that she's pretending to drink from a Keep Cup which you rotate the cap across to drink from. So she's capable of pretending to be human sometimes.

(sorry for double posting I'm on mobile and can't edit to add a quote)
so you can have latent TB, such basically means it's in there and not doing anything. they also can't give it to anyone because they have no symptoms.
lots and lots of people out there, particularly those that have been in and around the subcontinent, that are walking around and wouldn't know.
in which case you need to be monitored for your medication regime, but you don't need to be in isolation.

Don't you have to test negative for TB and have all your vaccines up to date to go to university anyway? Or have things changed since I was a bread cub?

Don’t think you should feel too bad about it! It was kind of inevitable someone would take the bait in a forum for people with the lethal combo of curiosity and autism.

Oh yeah I don't actually care lol. I like to play dumb a while sometimes to see if they'll clean up their secret hidden internet presence thinking I haven't found it yet but honestly there wasn't much gold in them thar hills. The only really incriminating thing you can find from her real name is something she couldn't get taken down, but she's too much of an airheaded narcissist to even realize how bad it makes her sound so she wouldn't try anyway.

@Kate Farms Shill AS levels are an exam. In the UK you do your GCSEs at 16 and your A levels at 18. The results if A levels are what get you into uni. A stands for advanced, GCSes used to be O (ordinary) levels.
An AS level is kind of half way. You study from 16-18 and if you only do the first year you can get an AS level. It’s like half an A level.

No, I never did. That was admittedly last century but I dont think you have to test negative for anything except independent thought these days

Plot twist: Rose releases her own Nikacado Avocado style "two steps ahead" video where she reveals she is a young, sexy, fit triathlete.
My sides would be in orbit for weeks.

This seems normal, especially for a dim posh girl whose main aspiration is getting into Oxford. Bong education specialises very early, from 16-18 you only study 3/4 subjects max. Students who want to get into highly selective universities are encouraged to choose the subjects they are likely to get the highest grades in.
State school means a lot of different things from average comprehensive school (probably american public school equivalent) to very selective grammar schools that you have to pass an entrance exam to attend. Ol' Typhoid Mary here is from Buckinghamshire which still has a grammar school system. Posh families often move to areas with grammar schools to effectively get free private education. No one with an accent and physiognomy like that attended a comprehensive. Not only that but given her evident lack of academic ability I'd bet her parents invested heavily in private tutoring to get her into Oxford.

I agree! I've been waiting for a Kate Farms write up on Tilly and I look forward to the day she's covering the violinist.
Also yes, I agree with Kate Farms about how inhuman Tilly looks, she's like a creepy lil alien in a meat suit or a robot.
For some reason I associate that look with some people who are raised upper class.
There's a special kind of them that looks like Barbie and Ken, inhumanly sleek and plastic and never a hair out of place.

There IS something very odd about about Tilly’s photos. She’s usually by herself, dwarfed by her surroundings, eyes uncomfortably wide. Even her photos of buildings have this weird sadness. “That’s just what England is like” yeah okay okay
It’s like she’s casting herself in the role of “beautiful girl who’s already tragically dead when the story starts.”
