It was like 50% like 3 hours ago then it rapidly jumped up. Which is odd considering it has hardly moved at all for what feels like days. Me thinks this is being astro-turfed or the alternative its just straight up broken and they have to mainly update this goal.

They're running a daycare full of drug addicts and autistics. Doubt they have time to troubleshoot something like that.

I've been consistently disappointed and amazed at the site this whole time. It's janky and something like the Hassle % is an easy thing to fix but then I think about the people running the show and am impressed they got it to the current state.

Didn't someone say Letty was raped by her uncle or something as a teen? If so, then this kid has a lot of issues. Sexually abused, clearly has an ED, has a creepy stalker ex, and it appears she rarely interacted with people outside of online/discord before the fishtank.

I'm wondering if the parents didn't teach her shit because they didn't want to put pressure on her due to sexual abuse/ED. It's not uncommon for parents to act this way, as if their child will break if they give them any discipline. Unfortunately, that kind of parenting doesn't do your kid any good long term, as we can clearly see with Letty here.

My sympathy can only go so far, having fucked up shit happen to you, does not give you an excuse to do fucked up shit to others. I understand that they're playing a game, but some of her non-game related actions have really irked me.

This would explain a lot of her behaviour. She clearly has very low self esteem, just judging by the way she dresses, eats and cleans.

Josie once again proving she's more responsible than the other women in the tank. Letty can only think with her pussy and Hog sleeping still.

It really says something about the other fish and whatever "appeal" they have (besides Jon, obviously) that Josie's becoming my second favorite just by virtue of having some standards.

In regards to this I see that it is theorized that Letty has BPD. To clarify BPD and Bi Polar are not the same also its worth noting the following:

Researchers have used MRI to study the brains of people with BPD.

The scans revealed that in many people with BPD, 3 parts of the brain were either smaller than expected or had unusual levels of activity. These parts were:

  • the amygdala – which plays an important role in regulating emotions, especially the more "negative" emotions, such as fear, aggression and anxiety
  • the hippocampus – which helps regulate behaviour and self-control
  • the orbitofrontal cortex – which is involved in planning and decision making
A number of environmental factors seem to be common and widespread among people with BPD. These include:

  • being a victim of emotional, physical or sexual abuse
  • being exposed to long-term fear or distress as a child
  • being neglected by 1 or both parents
  • growing up with another family member who had a serious mental health condition, such as bipolar disorder or a drink or drug misuse problem
So as I believe you noted earlier it is shocking how Letty specifically lacks basic skills around the house such as washing and cleaning which may indicate a neglect on some level (but that's just me assuming)

Also its worth remembering that BPD is part of the Cluster B Personality traits pool:

Cluster B. Cluster B disorders involve unpredictable, dramatic, or intensely emotional responses to things. The four main cluster B disorders are:

  • ‌Antisocial
  • ‌Borderline
  • ‌Histrionic
  • ‌Narcissistic
Further more BPD is on a sliding scale and traits can lessen over time but there is NO definitive cure. These people are dangerous (see amber heard for more).

While I'm sure some of my post has been covered in the 900 odd pages I just wanted to clarify as someone in that field of research and to apply context to why Letty may be this way.

I know the belief is people like Josie just for simp reasons but I think what I enjoy about her is her contrast to everyone else in the house. It's like she exists in a different world than the rest of the fish. Nothing phases her. When she's asked to do something she does it. When the sharks trash the house, she just cleans it. When there is tons of noise and chaos she just vibes to it. When her bed got taken away she didn't complain. She's not scheming, she's not planning. She is just doing what she does. While everyone is stressing out over whether everyone hates them or if they are going to get eliminated she is off playing with her plushies and toys. Meanwhile she's getting showered with gifts and compliments while everyone else is getting tortured by TTS. It's just funny to see in contrast to everything else.

I think that's the reason why I dislike her the most. Asides from autistic tics and stimming she provides basically zero content and interacts with the other contestants almost not at all.

Asides from Damiel (who lies in bed all fucking day) Josie probably provides the least active content.

This dude is nothing without his pills. He needs 3-6 months of diet and exercise while off the pills before he’s at a base human level.

They should pill him up in the tank so he acts like a crackhead instead of a zombie

Yeah, I honestly forget Josie is there sometimes. I think she has some cute moments but she doesn't really contribute to the social aspect of the house. I can't imagine what it will be like if she makes it to the end (which I think she probably will) and it's only her and one other person in the house.

I wonder what they'll do to keep the content flowing when there's only a couple fish left.
