Missing tooth and dog asshole mouth, is there anything not gross about this thot?
Interesting that Kev doesn't seem to show off his teeth much as well, I suppose Lorena Toothless either screeches at him to not do it so she doesn't have to or he also has missing teeth like her.
Kev learn to train your dragon and keep Lorena Toothless at bay.
On the subject of Lori's teeth, maybe it's just the autism talking but she looks like she has a bit of an overbite here maybe? Maybe she can pedobait as an ~uwu kawaii~ bunnygirl!
Things are getting weird, farmers. It seems that Lori is crazier than originally suspected.
Background: When Lori dated Rikki from 2013-2017, Rikki prioritized his married mistress (MM) over Lori and treated her as a side piece. Rikki's primary girlfriend was a married woman named Kitty who carpooled with him to work. For more info, here's a post about the dumpster fire that was (is?) their relationship: [LINK]
Evidence indicates that Lori has been skinwalking as Kitty for years. Yeah. Here's one of countless examples. Apparently, Kitty loves My Little Pony and has cosplayed as various ponies at conventions (including BronyCon) over the years.
This character is Sonata from MLP. I have no idea who Sonata is but she's important for context. Kitty cosplayed as Sonata in May 2017. Up until then, Lori had never shown any interest in MLP. However, in June 2017, Lori "coincidentally" posted photos of herself as a "sexy" version of Sonata and advertised pony fetish pics for degenerates. She even shoved one of her beloved hair extensions down her asscrack to appeal to ponyfuckers. Here's where I usually criticize Lori for sexualizing cartoons characters made for children but we already know she's a deviant fuck who panders to pedophiles.
Here's another example of Lori skinwalking as Kitty. In these 2017-2018 pictures, Kitty frequently has blue hair that Lori copies. Kitty also tends to wear red eyeshadow, collar chokers, and even sports a signature Cerda "Poof Pout" in some instances.
These examples are just the tip of the iceberg. Side by side, their social media accounts reveal an unsettling amount of "similar" content: hair styles, hair colors, hand gestures, poses, clothing, jewelry, nails, makeup, interests, hashtags, themes, etc. There's a lot of evidence that Lori has stalked Kitty for years and it's horrifying to think that Lori would skinwalk as a real human being. Unfortunately, there's a daunting amount of material down this rabbit hole. To give you an idea, take a look at some of Kitty's social media pictures.
Next, go look at Lori's Instagram [LINK]. See any similar themes? Yeah. Lori has done very little in her life besides wreaking havoc upon those in her proximity and posting pictures of her butthole on the internet. I will, however, give her this - Lori is a prolific predator. Lori has hurt so many people in so many different ways over the years that, unfortunately, it makes sense that she would be a stalker as well as an abuser, manipulator, cheater, liar, and freeloader.
At first this cow seemed entertaining in a "so crazy it's funny" kind of way. Then it goes into "what a piece of shit" for how she treats others and her pets.
Now?
Now that I know a huge part of her online persona is her just copying a fucking brony girl? Now it just seems sad and pathetic.
Like I kinda get being into a story or character, cosplay as them, run or contribute to a website about the things you're a fan of. I get that. People have hobbies.
But to skinwalk a girl who likes MLP of all things, has to be one of the most cringeworthy things I've seen on kiwifarms of all places. Like how are you so much of a loser that you copy a MLP fan? You're supposed to make fun of them not copy them!
That adds a whole other layer of sad and pathetic cringe I didn't think was possible. Thank you for all of your research.
It's cringey yet entertaining to see someone a few years older than me trying to look like a teenager with filter overkill.
It's sad because I know some cosplayers in their 30s who look way better than this loon without makeup and filter, drama really does take it's toll even on those who live for it.
i did not meet Rikki until winter of 2016. Anything before this time was not me. If Rikki was off doing his own thing before 2017, it was with someone else. I wasn’t even married until early 2016
End of January/Early Feb 2017: Rikki tells MM (myself) that he’s broken up with Lori and is 100% hers now.
Feb-Sept(?)Oct(?) 2017: Rikki and MM try to figure shit out despite his sexual boundary overstepping, constant breach of trust, and abuse of money.
He did also admit to running up her credit card before he moved out (back with his dad) so she would be “financially crippled”
Reading all this though I have no idea who actually had the money in the relationship?..
It’s not that he didn’t think anything was wrong, it’s because I already had open communication with him about what was going on and that I wanted a divorce. He already knew about Rikki, and he didn’t trust her either. ESPECIALLY after she posted screens of their convo (where she crops out all her own shifty responses).
Carpooled with...LMAO. Bro I drove his ass to work because he was borrowing Lori’s car and didn’t have a vehicle of his own The mf always needed money, and rides, etc.
This was a bad weekend ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
oh bullshit. My birthday is April 9th. She made that up for dramatics.
oh my actual fuck from MY point of view him and I weren’t “together.” I TOLD him over and over if him and her were sleeping together I didn’t care because I knew he needed the sex. But i always followed that up with “the only thing that I’ll have a problem with is if you’re lying to me.” Hmmm
Awwwh look at my cute round face at meat buffet. I definitely posted that photo for a reaction and I 100% got it.
Debated telling me?.. she was up in my DMs telling me about it?
Aaaaaaand this is where I completely tuned out of her drama and she blocked me somewhere in the next few months. Apparently Rikki tried to sleep with one of my close friends in...September(?) of 2017. According to her he couldn’t get the pp up though. I tried to work through things with him after SAK, but that all ended August 2017 when I couldn’t figure out who was lying, why tf he was chatting up my unrelated friend so much behind my back, and I still had my own unresolved relationship problems.
Wow he really posted that? That’s a remnant of whatever it was we had. All of my ex boyfriends and flings know I’m constantly singing Fall Out Boy in the car to the point they unwillingly know the lyrics
oh that’s right he proposed to her as a birthday present after breaking up with her only a few days before iirc?
Damn. Sometimes you really don’t think it be like it is, but then it do. @OhGodHowDidThisGetHere you are an absolute informational saint.
Nah fam sorry that shit was average size at best. 4-5”?
Yeah, this is a thing. If you look at Lori’s pictures, you may notice that she rarely smiles with visible teeth. This is done on purpose and has been a habit of hers since she started cosplaying in 2001.
During her Sailor Moon skinwalking years, Lori's official reason for not smiling in photos was that she was portraying the more serious manga version of Sailor Moon instead of the cartoony anime version. The official artbooks are full of wistful, stoic, and sometimes melancholy depictions of Usagi and her soldiers (senshi).
Lori: "oh i smile just not much in my pictures i dont know, i like the manga artwork, and as we know she may smile all the time in the anime ::like most of us do:: but in the actual, you know, still pictures theres rarely teeth showing my dear. funny you say i never smile though XD look at the first pic XDDD but then again you dont know me but i guess your one of those interwberz that feels she knows everyone from looking at a small selection of pictures <.< OH WELL ::pet pet::"
LJ User: "Umm...excuse me? I'm not saying that 'you don't ever smile.' I'm just saying that from the majority photos I've seen of you, you rarely smile in them, and I'd like to see you smile more. I was just giving you a helpful suggestion."
Questions about this quirk were often met with Lori's signature haughtiness, defensiveness, and hostility (DO NOT COPY). As her toxic behavior led to well-deserved infamy, Lori's refusal to smile in pictures and creepy "same face" shtick became a joke among her fellow cosplayers.
It was then discovered that Lori had a missing tooth. Just as she decided that cosplaying at anime conventions was more important than graduating high school, Lori chose to spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on Sailor Moon costumes instead of dental care.
"Sailor Moon says when cosplaying is moar important than paying for a fuckin' dental plan...nevar smile on pictures. just in case tell people you're trying to portray character from artbook #666 page 249873 OH NOEEESSS!!!" - Anon
Nearly two decades later, Lori still refrains from smiling with visible teeth in most pictures. Some likely reasons for this are wrinkle prevention, hiding her missing tooth (teeth?), emulating manga Sailor Moon, and sheer habit. This also appears to still be a sensitive and triggering topic for her. Here's an example of Lori being a rude and condescending thundercunt to one of Kevin's Facebook friends over the issue.
Kevin's Friend: "I want to see a picture of both of you smiling for once!"
Lori: "Silly pictures are on my fb turtle dove ^_~ friends only unfortunately!"
Friend: "They look the same to me."
Lori: "I think you miss understood what I said dear. You CAN'T see them because he's not tagged in those :> that's for my peeps to see~"
Kevin: "Trust me we get our fair share of smiles!!"
to expand (dong) on the spoiler at the very bottom of that quote post, Rikki was the most average of averages. There was no fatness. There was no unusual size. It was roughly 4-5” and yes the whole thing could be fit in ones mouth (look ma no hands). It’s length to girth ratio left no impression. I have no idea what he provided for the Immortal Superior Goddess herself, but apparently he offered something. Perhaps it was the swoopy hair? The other type of bang, if you will.
Now Kevin on the other hand seems to at least boast some size. Based on the small thumbnails that I saw at some point while things were still hot off the 2018 press, (not from Kevin himself, mind you) he could probably give our Princess UwUsagi a good time. Maybe 7-8”? He also likes lace panties and I personally think he has a nice ass.

EDIT 2: That bottom status of hers is about Rikki, not Kevin. I may have been wrong about this.

I'm bad at posting on my page because I haven't done much cosplay stuff lately and I forget!
Selfies on a cosplay page are allowed right!? XD
As a lot of people know I moved in with my girlfriend a few months ago and while we have a bunch of cosplay plans, we must adult as well. We're waiting for it to get warmer anyway :d
<<photo of Lorena and Kevin in a dimly lit car. Lorena is taking a photo with the classic 'v' hand sign. She is not smiling. Kevin looks happy but a little awkward. He did not know which side of the phone the camera was on. He is wearing a choker/collar, she is wearing Rikki's* old black hoodie.>>
*Kitty's note: Rikki told me she was wearing his hoodie in a photo posted to crown_and_heart (now iota_zerotwo)'s instagram on May 9th 2017. This was never confirmed by myself, however the particular times the sweatshirt is posted as well as the style it emulates leads me to believe it's (mostly) the truth.

I started talking to Lori and liking and commenting on her photos about a year ago. I always thought she is extremely cute and really wanted to meet her. I didn't think it'd ever happen though because she's way out of my league and girls tend to not like me so I didn't think I had a chance.
To find out she had a crush on me too was crazy, after we started talking I fell really fast, she's pretty perfect for me, she's super cute abd we talk about snd like the same stuff. She's even a huge Wow <<world of warcraft>> nerd like me. She's a cosplay senpai I look up to in amazement because she was out there dressing up when it wasn't as cool, or more people thought you were weird for it.
She gets ready and goes to work every day without fail, even though getting a job for me has been rough she's really supportive and making most of the monies. Also the way she cares for her animals is sweeter than any chocolate I've ever tasted.* She's a very strong person who's been though a lot. I love her. She's pretty awesome.

Could you be with someone that has no trust in you and would believe you're literally constantly cheating on them/having sex with multiple people when you never go out and you're always around?**
*Kitty's note: I find it fascinating that this is being brought up in this statement. Rikki was always very adamant with me that she was extremely abusive towards the ferrets. That was his excuse for still going over to her apartment while he was woo-ing me. Unsure if this is a jab for Rikki to see, or her spinning a sob story to him and him trying to clear up "misunderstandings" with other parties.
**Kitty's note: Reading this again, now with This Screencap from April 2018 in mind, I'm wondering if this post was about Kevin accusing her of cheating on him with Rikki? Especially with how the post was made two hours prior? Back when I was still friends with one/both of them, there was a constant pattern of her posting something incredibly passive aggressive and him following up with a smooshy gooey post a few hours later. I have redacted my words from earlier saying it was about Rikki. It now could have been about either boy.

I guess I should be used to this. I was so proud of myself for how I mentally handled myself after my ex finally left me alone for good back in September.
Kevin leaving seems to be hurting a lot more. Done running all my errands and now I'm just home. Alone. And it just really sucks and I wish I could stop crying. Im seriously a fucking idiot.

i hope youre all fucking happy.
--end transcript--
EDIT 1: fixed the photo upload EDIT 3: Transcriptions and interesting anecdotes added. EDIT 4: Fixed which birthday it was. I've been thinking she was born in 1984 this whole time. Guess she's only 8 years older than me, not 9 like I had thought.
LOL NO it was someone else that I hardly knew. I’m trying to find the good goods but no luck so far. But I did find these fantastic shots of several deleted statuses while I was hunting. Enjoy~
Wow, so he did have a spine. I'm assuming she's ground him down so much over the years that him dumping her now is a pipe dream. Seeing Lori cry "hope you're all happy now" is actually so satisfying. Even though this is old news, that was very entertaining. Good catch! You provide the nummiest milks.
I know technically Lori's older and therefore his senpai but it's weird to see someone who has some actual cosplay talent and can craft shit talk reverently about Lori's cosplay talent given she went through entire decades with orange hair and doesn't make her own shit.
I know why he talks about her reverently but it's still kind of sad to me he doesn't realise he's the one with talent in that duo. Now Kitty's here and we find out she piggybacked off his cosplay IG. Makes a lot of sense.
Ngl, I predict Kevin might whip out a Deku cosplay out of the blue. Or post photos to be "casual" Deku to see if any of his fans ride the BNHA simp wave to justify his green hair. Only problem is that he has those blonde edges. I only predict this because if he dyed his hair black to be Lori's Hiro, why not see if you can get Bnha ass pats with your Deku ass hair.

I think I got whiplash. Kitty, it's great you kept these.
So, he proposed on her birthday and then they broke up the very next day? Is this when he was still in Seattle? If I remember correctly, I think this was the very first public breakup they had. There's been a lot since then!
Why thank you Mr. Goose. It’s good to know my filters are at least a little more believe-able.
☆〜(ゝ。∂)
I still edit my photos with lightroom/snapseed/afterlight, but it’s mostly for the acne and the worsening Scandinavian mouth lines. Can’t keep up the uwu act for too much longer. I don’t have Lori’s superior genetics after all.
I'm a Ms. Goose and you are welcome. Thank you for your information and insight. It's super valuable to us. I'm glad you got separated from those bad situations and good on you for coming out the other side stronger and tempered! We Stan.
I don't shame ladies for using filters (it's nice to retouch photos) except in the cases where it's no longer "retouching" as much as "full on total face reconstruction". If filtering out scandinavian smile lines is a crime then we'll do time together!
I find Lori's continued pedo-baiting to be so deeply disturbing. Skinwalking is creepy AF but not near so much as skinwalking an actual child in 18+ images. And she's 35.
Kevin is a full on cuck if he had the balls to dump Lori and then dove straight back into that dumpster fire. He deserves all the criticism he's getting if he's such a little bitch.

I still haven't found the old phone and/or computer files that had most of my constant screenshotting endeavors, but I'm sending things as I find the little places I've hidden my memories on the internet! These have either been from simply digging them up again, or finding things in old chats (after much scrolling.)
The way things appeared on the outside, this is what seems to have happened. It was also the timestamps from when I had sent the screenshots. Whether or not he was the one who agreed to make a proposal status, or if it was her on his account, or if it was a joke played by him to crush her by breaking up the next day, I have no proof nor idea.
Yes, this is when he was still in Seattle. I do not believe they moved to Utah until later. I can also confirm he was legit in Seattle because I ran into the two of them at my daily haunt (The Arcade Round1). It gave me a huge adrenaline rush since I hadn't seen Lorena in the flesh since I first met her in 2014!

Ah yes, I now see your stunning eyelashes, Ms. Goose. They rival Lorena's. She would be furious to see them, as she's so proud of her long natural lashes. Please, Lorena. Post more of your empathetic heart mesmerizing dancing to lyrics about being painfully beautiful. Your great beauty and immortal majesty is your favorite (only?) thing to flaunt, after all.
Honestly, reading through the first 20 pages, it reminds me of the nights at the Smoke table listening to Rikki vent. No contact with women, cutting off social media/friends, no facebook allowed, I wonder if he's just out of energy/out of options? At some point, it might not be about balls, it might be about the thing that feels easiest to do. Or the punani is just that dank. I have no idea. I do remember that initially, Rikki was very willing to up and leave her once he felt like he had another girl secured and he was financially able. Perhaps for Kevin, being with her is still more rewarding than the fear of being alone?
Also, Transcripts and anecdotes/observations have been edited and added for the recent screenshot dump!

That bitch Lorena has been stealing beautiful goose eyelashes for a while now. Wished she used some gorilla glue to keep them on. Too bad she can't stuff her tits with some feathers and stop pretending like she's ten. It's nasty.
You reading this Lori? Those eyelashes better be vegan from now on.
Lori: "oh i smile just not much in my pictures i dont know, i like the manga artwork, and as we know she may smile all the time in the anime ::like most of us do:: but in the actual, you know, still pictures theres rarely teeth showing my dear. funny you say i never smile though XD look at the first pic XDDD but then again you dont know me but i guess your one of those interwberz that feels she knows everyone from looking at a small selection of pictures <.< OH WELL ::pet pet::"

Of alllll the things to lie about, why choose this? Why make this the whole excuse for why she doesn't smile?
This sounds exactly like those emo kids that would just say "I prefer their older stuff" in response to any question about a band, as if they had some elite reputation to uphold.
Actually, this is even dumber, because it's very easy to disprove the whole "in the 'still pictures' there's rarely any teeth showing!" by just opening up absolutely any volume of a Sailor Moon manga to any random page.
No matter the form she's in - Usagi Tsukino, Sailor Moon, Princess Serenity, Neo Queen Serenity, Sailor Cosmos - about 97% of any manga panel she's in has her with her mouth wide open. Usually smiling, laughing, or yelling. Because Usagi is a clumsy 14-year-old girl with super powers. Of course she's going to be a bit bubbly and ditzy as a character.
This just makes me wonder why Lori latched on to Usagi so adamantly, because it sure as hell wasn't just a love for the actual works/story.
Was it Usagi's age and immortality? Her effortless beauty? Constantly the damsel in distress and seen as the key to the world's future? Having an ever-expanding group of friends who double as doting protectors that always come to her aid? The romantic interest that's so loyal it transcends lifetimes? Being a one-of-a-kind, celestial princess? Being the future ruler and savior of the entire world? Being so sought after that people will literally travel through time just to get to her? People seeing all of her flaws as charming little quirks? Eating nothing but sweets and fast food but never really gaining weight?
Could be all, could be none, could be something more simple. But I really want to know what exactly it was that made Lori see Usagi and go, "Yes, she is me!"
I also wonder if maybe Lori's brief hinting at a sexual/romantic interest in girls stemmed from this weird identity crisis rather than any genuine interest, but I'm not sure if Lori has actually delved that deep into the actual story and character development to have absorbed that part.
Lori's attachment to Zero Two, however, makes a lot more sense character-wise.
Everything is about Usagi. That's it. She was #1 waifu at the time aside from Sakura from Naruto. She picks whoever is the hottest anime girl at the time and she skinwalks. Why she chose Zero Two is no different, really. She had to pretend to be graceful and queen-like to be real life Serenity. She really couldn't do it but was in too deep with her lies to stop. Once she burned all her little Kou handmaidens, she knew that era was over and done. I think Lori only chose Zero Two after she decided she couldn't hide her true nature as a terrible person. She traded innocence and attempts at charm for straight-up cheap sex appeal and hatred.
Lori has this complex where she believes she is legitimately above all other people. In her world, she is God's gift. She's the center of everything and anyone tangential to her is just an extension of herself. Zero Two has a very "humans are inconsequential to me, I'm nothing but a beast that everyone cast aside so now I live to that expectation. I will make humans suffer for branding me as such. i will use them to my ends. i trust nobody." but then she waivers when she's paired with the twink Hiro (Kevin). Zero Two falls in love and that love is used as a revolutionary act to, like, reset Earth or some shit. All I know is that they save humans at the end and are reborn, ish. So, Lori really believes 1.) her and Kev's love is transcendent and 2.) she's some sort of enigmatic figure that strikes the fear of God into puny mortals. What's more offensive to me is her implications of being capable of introspection and personal growth.
Now, why she thinks she looks like Zero Two and not Queen Beryl or Garoben, I don't know. Either of them would be more fitting than the cute pink haired demon with character development. I mean, just look at the resemblance!
Lori is really milking this, huh? God, her moves in these "dancing videos" remind me of Steam Powered Giraffe and tiktok cosplayers. It's so fucking grating when grown people do that goofy animatronic shit in 2x speed. Do coomers ask for these weird videos or does she do it to compete with Kitty's tiktoks?
Now listen. When I first saw this comment I laughed because there was no way...right? There was no way...
I decided it was high time to start doing my research again because I am but a lowly city slicker on the farms right now, but that’s no reason I can’t pull my weight around here.
<<Small context: I have not actively investigated or poured through iota_zerotwo’s instagram for a very long time. I instructed the few friends I still discussed my deep-darks with to not tell me what she was doing as I wanted to remain out of that sphere of influence aside from accidental coincidental overlap (which it turns out there’s a lot of!! Are we similar people? Or has she really become who “Bloo” wanted to be just like she told Rikki she would accomplish?)>>

I saw her ONCE, and didn’t get a good look at her because her mind games had done a very successful job at making me feel like a failure for showing up out of cosplay <<but don’t worry I still felt very cute, and was also with cute boy. Life moves on.>> sooo I had a huge adrenaline rush. I did look at Kevin though. Man, his Bakugo cosplay was seriously well done. He really could have been somebody...

Kitty’s Closest Reel timestamped 11-11-2020
Yru Shoes is tagged in this reel YRU shoes is also tagged in Kitty’s most recent photo on 11-9-2020. Kitty has freshly hit 1,800 followers! Nice job, Kitty!
Lori’s first Reel likely posted 11-12-2020 or 11-13-2020. Only timestamp available for me is “14w ago”
Kitty’s Note: Although I genuinely enjoy wearing them, elf ears will never not be a passive jab and make me chuckle.
December 4, 2020. Hmm, just enough time to see a particular reel in mid-december and have them shipped!
Kitty’s Note: Wow just look at all those hashtag overlaps between the two accounts! Not in these particular screenshots, mind you, but wow it would be an absolute hoot to try and find who used them first. We’re definitely vying for the same market.
So now we have our nice top down view.
Lori: Currently 102k followers, 10 reels. Highest viewed/liked reel has just shy of 200k views and 6000 likes. Average reel likes are ~2k-3k.
Kitty: Currently 8.8k followers. 26 reels. Highest viewed reel 513k. Highest liked reel 49.8k Average likes per reel are about 1.5k. <<Note: First viral reel posted around the 3k follower marker>>
So, city slicker, what the farm-fresh fuck is going on here and why does this matter?
Well first of all, I had no idea she only recently started with the whole YRU shoes thing. Could it still be a huge coincidence? Yes absolutely. Just like me “copying” photos of her that I had never seen until y’all pointed it out.
Now if she had been an *actual* influencer who is in depth working the sweet milk of the algorithm, these reels would have started much earlier in my opinion. It leads me to believe she actually (still?) has no idea what she’s doing and has gained traction by emulating those around her. One of whom might actually still happen to be my unworthy self?? Lori, dear, I thought you stopped hate-crushing on me two years ago.
ALSO! It’s more evidence in the direction of her buying a substantial amount of her following. Why do I think this? Well let me use my own post as an example. My third best reel is currently at 300k views and 39k likes. I posted this reel secretly. The ONLY place my followers would see it is in my story, or in the wild. Now, several of my real live organic followers told me they saw my Ghost Post in their explore tab. It made me realize that, even if you don’t post a reel to the newsfeed, it will still show up in their reels feed. Also, if a significant amount of your followers like it, it will then be shown to a wider audience.
Ok so how does this tie into Lori? Well, if you look at her second two reels, she only has 94 and 156 likes respectively. THIS MEANS that the first crop of accounts her “secret” reels were shown to were bots. Therefore they didn’t interact. Therefore her reels absolutely TANKED because the first ~10% of her audience (according to The Algorithm Overlords) found her content “uninteresting”.
As another interesting thing, I’ve included some screenshots of her and my most recent reel. Both posted two days ago. Same amount of time for traction, both of us still have it in our main profile grid.
Kitty’s Note: the amount of incredibly nice complements I got on the reel with a passive aggressive caption that was actually about somebody else made me feel really gross. Is this the kind of attentions she attempts to illicit? Why??? It made my stomach feel squeemish. Don’t get me wrong, I genuinely appreciate words and the people who said them, but that’s not the kind of attention I wanted to get.
Also, in case you’re wondering why my reel views are all over the place, I’m experimenting with the algorithm! Hashtags, no hashtags, posting to story only, posting to story and timeline, posting to timeline only. So far, one thing is consistent: I don’t fucking know how this damn thing works. Post, and think viral thoughts maybe?
A takeaway thot: does Kevin know she’s buying followers? If so, is that why he’s so confident that her numbers will never dwindle even if they suffer another “wave of attack”? Or does he genuinely believe people love her just as much as she brags?
This concludes today’s Kit-Tea Party.
Edit 1: Also makes me wonder how many of the 100k followers she’s bought.
Edit 2: Dammit photos. Fixed the thumbnails.
EDIT 3: So by law of the algorithm, as a general average you will receive about 10% likes:total followers. Her recent 20-ish posts average about 5.8k likes with the highest recent one hitting about 10k. Now, the likes can be influenced by any number of things, but assuming we take the general average as a baseline, she theoretically only has about 60k-75k real followers. It’s also possible she has closer to 80-90k real followers, however due to the bots negative impact, her current rate of engagement is only about 5% as opposed to the regular 10% average from an organic/honestly paid following.
Okay, I'm sorry, I usually just lurk this thread in silence, but...
Of alllll the things to lie about, why choose this? Why make this the whole excuse for why she doesn't smile?
This sounds exactly like those emo kids that would just say "I prefer their older stuff" in response to any question about a band, as if they had some elite reputation to uphold.
Actually, this is even dumber, because it's very easy to disprove the whole "in the 'still pictures' there's rarely any teeth showing!" by just opening up absolutely any volume of a Sailor Moon manga to any random page.
No matter the form she's in - Usagi Tsukino, Sailor Moon, Princess Serenity, Neo Queen Serenity, Sailor Cosmos - about 97% of any manga panel she's in has her with her mouth wide open. Usually smiling, laughing, or yelling. Because Usagi is a clumsy 14-year-old girl with super powers. Of course she's going to be a bit bubbly and ditzy as a character.
This just makes me wonder why Lori latched on to Usagi so adamantly, because it sure as hell wasn't just a love for the actual works/story.
Was it Usagi's age and immortality? Her effortless beauty? Constantly the damsel in distress and seen as the key to the world's future? Having an ever-expanding group of friends who double as doting protectors that always come to her aid? The romantic interest that's so loyal it transcends lifetimes? Being a one-of-a-kind, celestial princess? Being the future ruler and savior of the entire world? Being so sought after that people will literally travel through time just to get to her? People seeing all of her flaws as charming little quirks? Eating nothing but sweets and fast food but never really gaining weight?
Could be all, could be none, could be something more simple. But I really want to know what exactly it was that made Lori see Usagi and go, "Yes, she is me!"
I also wonder if maybe Lori's brief hinting at a sexual/romantic interest in girls stemmed from this weird identity crisis rather than any genuine interest, but I'm not sure if Lori has actually delved that deep into the actual story and character development to have absorbed that part.
Lori's attachment to Zero Two, however, makes a lot more sense character-wise.
Good question. The short answer is that Lori very likely has untreated personality disorders that significantly impact how she perceives the herself, others, and the world around her. While Lori displays symptoms of several untreated Cluster B personality disorders including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), and Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD), this post will focus on 2 of Lori's likely diagnoses and their relationship to her obsession with Sailor Moon.
LORI, UNTREATED MENTAL ILLNESS(ES), AND SAILOR MOON
The character Usagi from Sailor Moon embodies and reinforces Lori's narcissistic and borderline tendencies.
Lori and Borderline Tendencies
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
A pervasive pattern of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment. (Note: Do not include suicidal or self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5.)
A pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by alternating between extremes of idealization and devaluation. [This is called "splitting."]
Identity disturbance: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self.
Impulsivity in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging (e.g., spending, sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, binge eating). (Note: Do not include suicidal or self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5.)
Recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, or threats, or self-mutilating behavior.
Affective instability due to a marked reactivity of mood (e.g., intense episodic dysphoria, irritability, or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and only rarely more than a few days).
Chronic feelings of emptiness.
Inappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (e.g., frequent displays of temper, constant anger, recurrent physical fights).
Transient, stress-related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms.
Lori meets many of the criteria for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). She demonstrates emotional instability, threatens suicide frequently, expresses inappropriate bouts of anger, struggles with overall impulsivity, has engaged in self-mutilating behavior [cutting], experiences intense mood swings, has a history of potentially self-damaging sexual impulsivity, struggles to control her temper, and has a long history of unstable platonic and romantic relationships. Some main themes with BPD are abandonment and identity.
The first diagnostic criteria for BPD is: "Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment." For someone with untreated BPD, the thought of abandonment poses an existential threat. In Lori's world, aloneness is an emotional death sentence and she is terrified of potential abandonment. A common phrase used to describe BPD symptoms is "I hate you, don't leave me." Due to untreated BPD, Lori is haunted by the looming threats of rejection and loneliness. Unfortunately, her attempts to avoid abandonment generally push people away from her and result in a self-fulfilling prophecy that she is doomed to be alone. If you familiarize yourself with the symptoms, you can find evidence in Lori's words and behaviors that strongly indicate her fear of abandonment and likely untreated BPD. As one of countless examples, Lori repeatedly refers to loneliness and being alone in screencaps recently posted by @misskittymoxie.
- "I guess I should be used to this. I was so proud of myself for how I mentally handled myself after my ex finally left me alone for good back in September." - Lori
- "Kevin leaving seems to be hurting a lot more. Done running all my errands and now I'm just home. Alone. And it just really sucks and I wish I could stop crying. Im seriously a fucking idiot." - Lori
- "im broken and im in pain. he broke up with me. i was a joke this whole time. i dont want to talk about it i just want everything to stop spinning. please. i need someone. please. i feel so alone." - Lori
The third criterion for BPD is: "Identity disturbance: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self." With her history of skinwalking, Lori clearly has issues related to identity and sense of self. Lori and the topic of skinwalking has been covered in previous posts but it's important to acknowledge its direct relationship to untreated BPD.
- Lori and Skinwalking (Part 1): The Sailor Moon Years [LINK]
- Lori and Skinwalking (Part 2): The Kewl Kou Klan [LINK]
How do Lori's BPD tendencies relate to Sailor Moon? The character Usagi is beloved, accepted, and fiercely protected by her loyal friends and romantic partner. Despite all of her flaws, she is unconditionally loved and, therefore, Usagi is always safe from the threat of rejection, abandonment, and loneliness. Lori craves the same unfailingly loyal, doting, and extensive social circle that Usagi enjoys. The moon princess is never abandoned, never alone, never forgotten, never rejected, and never excluded. The Kewl Kou Klan was Lori's attempt to create similar group dynamics that insulated her from the threat of abandonment. However, Lori's KKK ultimately failed due to her emotional instability, alienating actions, impulsivity, wildly inappropriate behavior, and other untreated issues.
Regarding identity, Sailor Moon is emotionally accessible to tweens and teenagers. Lori's affective development is arrested and her emotional age is far younger than her chronological age. Lori has historically expressed thought patterns, behaviors, and beliefs ranging from infantile to that of a young teenage girl. From a psychodynamic psychological perspective, adolescence is a time of identity formation. Children at this stage of life refine their sense of self by testing roles and integrating them to form a single identity. However, failure to do so results in confusion about one’s identity. While identity crises are a normal part of the human experience, chronic skinwalking beyond adolescence is a red flag that something went awry during this stage of development. In addition, Lori first saw Sailor Moon as a tween and her love for the series quickly descended into full blown obsession as a teenager. The time and place of Lori's exposure to Sailor Moon coupled with her borderline and narcissistic tendencies are important factors that likely solidified her identification with Usagi.
Lori and Narcissistic Tendencies
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD)
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements).
Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love.
Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions).
Requires excessive admiration.
Has a sense of entitlement (i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations).
Is interpersonally exploitative (i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends).
Lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others.
Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her.
Shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes.
Lori meets many of the criteria for a Narcissistic Personality Diagnosis (NPD). She has a delusional sense of superiority, expects acknowledgement of her perceived specialness, exhibits no remorse for her behavior, automatically assumes people are jealous of her, is ferociously envious of others, often behaves in a bizarrely arrogant manner, believes that she is unique and special, etc. There are countless examples of her rampant malignant narcissism throughout this thread and here are some posts on the subject.

How do Lori's NPD tendencies relate to Sailor Moon? As @faggot fuckersaid, everything is about Usagi in Sailor Moon. Everything. Usagi is undoubtedly the most important character in the series. She has unique talents and is recognized by others as a special individual. She is unusually beautiful, powerful, and successful. She receives admiration and favorable treatment from her social circle by default. Other characters automatically acknowledge and are jealous of Usagi's specialness. Usagi's friends regularly make sacrifices on her behalf and their loyalty is absolute.
As stated in a previous post [LINK]: "Usagi Tsukino, a 14-year-old schoolgirl and superhero, is the main character [of Sailor Moon] with many Mary Sue-ish traits: exceptional beauty, Rapunzel hair, magic powers, a dashing star crossed-lover, and a circle of devoted protectors. She is usually the center of attention as well as a main love interest, a beloved friend, a magical girl warrior, a reincarnated princess, a future queen, and a messianic figure. With so many special qualities, it’s understandable that an egomaniac would want to skinwalk as Usagi."
As you asked @Judgment Boy, what was so appealing to Lori that made her see Usagi and go, "She is me and I am her!" Was it...
- Usagi's age and immortality? Yes.
- Usagi's effortless beauty? Yes.
- Usagi as the damsel in distress? Yes.
- Usagi as the key to the world's future? Yes.
- Usagi's ever-expanding group of friends who double as doting protectors who always come to her aid? Yes.
- Usagi's romantic interest who is so loyal to her that their love transcends lifetimes? Yes.
- Usagi as a one-of-a-kind, celestial princess? Yes.
- Usagi as the future ruler and savior of the entire world? Yes.
- Usagi being so sought after that other characters travel through time just to get to her? Yes.
- Usagi's friends viewing all of her flaws as charming and endearing quirks? Yes.
- Usagi's ability to eating nothing but sweets and fast food yet never gain significant weight? Yes.
- All of the above? Yes.
Lori favors the character Princess Serenity, Usagi's past self. Princess Serenity is the embodiment of Usagi's idealized existence. As the single heir to the moon kingdom, she has all the privileges of royalty without any of the responsibilities. She has loyal ladies-in-waiting who double as built-in friends that rank slightly lower on the social hierarchy. A handsome prince from another planet is so enamored with Princess Serenity that he breaks interplanetary rules to visit her. The love story between Princess Serenity and Endymion has a dramatic Romeo and Juliet undercurrent. It's all of these grandiose and romanticized factors that make Usagi an attractive idol for a narcissist like Lori to identify as and emulate.
Usagi represents both who Lori believes she is and who she desperately wants to be - a special, beautiful, beloved, and nearly omnipotent princess. When the world fails to act in accordance to her delusional self image, Lori seethes [narcissistic injury] and rages. She becomes virulently hostile towards whoever (or whatever) challenges her grandiosity and superiority. Any challenge to her "specialness," whether real or perceived, requires an counterattack to preserve her incredibly fragile ego. This may help to explain why Lori reacts so aggressively and strangely to things that emotionally healthy individuals wouldn't consider worthy of a second thought. As mentioned by other users, people with NPD are notoriously difficult to treat due to the nature of their condition. If Lori's narcissistic symptoms are as pathological as they seem, there's unfortunately a very low chance that she will ever voluntarily seek out the psychological help she so desperately needs.
