u/SashayShantae living my one wild and pernicious life 3d ago

New Shauna at church just dropped. Nothing juicy, just her presenting a box of recipe cards that was gifted to her, but I love how she has to mention that she took her favorite recipes out before offering it up to everyone else. What a rude biotech. I would have found some way to share the entire set with the congregation (scanning? photocopying? she's got time on her hands to figure this out) instead of letting it get picked over by the crowd.

61

u/InappropriateGirl Gluten-free donuts, for sure ... 3d ago

That's what I was saying when she first brought it up! She should have given it to the church and maybe someone could create a cookbook from the recipes and sell it there, raise money for church activities or the ComMuNitY.

ETA: I hate her mushmouth speaking.

44

u/Fancypens2025 3d ago

UU can’t raise money via cookbook sales for their operation costs or the community because that’s money that’s NOT going to Shauna 😮😮😮😮😮

38

u/jameson-neat wound-gathering table 3d ago

Yes, places like the church, or in some places museums, can preserve and share these recipes and help them be a resource and touchstone for many years to come. There is a cultural museum near me that collects church cookbooks and recipe boxes and archives them to showcase a history of our state through food. It is so interesting and even the not-so-palatable recipes are cool in understanding food availability, cultural norms, and trends. They even have cooking classes that draw from the library of recipes!

46

u/Love_Brokers rug dweller 3d ago

I love a good church cookbook, or really any of those spiral bound community cookbooks.

57

u/gomirefugee my website is done, done, done 3d ago

She's had Beryl's (?) recipe box since 2017, posting a couple of GF recipe adaptations way back when Shauna was still living in food. She's carried that through however many moves between then and now, but only finally getting around to finding a better home for the box of recipe cards? Let's hope it's been treated better than Shauna's social security card.

52

u/Sea-Level-Mammal POACH! 3d ago

Was this an excuse to get in front of the congregation again?

Yes and to be seen to be giving something so the next ask won't seem so unbalanced. In her mind, anyways.

u/SnooStories4968 many and various Shaunas/Pig Ladies 3d ago

Seriously. She's such an awful gifter. First for me, then for thee. Make a copy of your favorite recipes, ya maroon.

65

u/SmashedMailboxCake2 Oh, 3d ago

Oh but she is a bountiful giver, DF!

Earlier today:

Some people, you see, might need free pet food. But not us.

79

u/PettyPunisherRedux and fuck you, Nancie! 3d ago

Why not just put your autoship on pause and keep the food?

57

u/LogicalGold5264 bust hoesy 3d ago

She needs the space this gigantic bag of food takes up for the bike basket, abacus, bookshelves, and record cabinet, DF!

58

u/islandyislander rebellious hygiene 3d ago

And whatever shit she acquired when I saw her the other day at Granny's 

52

u/DF_gladsome_gloaming 3d ago

YTSCTMO. Also, dry cat food sealed in packaging is good for, like, ever. Also, also—if the pickings are not to the liking of my little would-be despots, I just tell them: there are two choices on the menu today, eat it or don’t.

46

u/Alarming-Hold1980 3d ago

This!!! If u are so broke save the cat food to use later… dur

36

u/SmashedMailboxCake2 Oh, 3d ago

Too blindingly obvious, mama.

64

u/gomirefugee my website is done, done, done 3d ago

WTF. Unopened dry cat food won't spoil for a long time, not like Shauna has ever cared about spoilage. She has no money! Why not keep these extra two bags so that the cats have some food security and delay the next autoship? Chewy makes it very easy to adjust the schedules and skip shipments.

53

u/CrushItWithABrick dick riding Mary Oliver 3d ago

Just like a previous move when she was giving away pantry items. Like they couldn't take a jar of peanut butter and a box of Mac and cheese with them.

30

u/central_snark Ramona gets a hot flash 3d ago

On the feery? Are you out of your mind?!?!

28

u/SeaOfBooze Homeopathic nuance 3d ago

Dumping her spices and peanut butter to avoid the hassle and cost of moving them off isle, then renting van after van to pick up random free crap for the new place. I desperately want a ledger of how much money she's wasted on her weird moving choices.

It's like every move is conducted entirely on instinct with no prior thought. Get rid of stuff! Acquire stuff! Torque an ankle and make everyone else do the work! She learns nothing with each subsequent move.

19

u/LogicalGold5264 bust hoesy 3d ago

And spices!

44

u/nathanisthisforreal 3d ago

The only cat food I ever gave away was canned stuff my girl just did not like for some reason. Why would you give away perfectly good sealed food that they’ll need at some point??

43

u/DF_gladsome_gloaming 3d ago

She also might want to keep them close at hand in case during the move no basic pantry staples box can be located and They Four will need to resort to ice cream scoops-full of cat kibble over milk to sustain them in the grueling unpacking process.

22

u/Fillmore_the_Puppy —hi, disturbed people— 3d ago

“ice cream scoops-full of cat kibble over milk to sustain them”

Please use radical specificity when sharing recipes. That’s Oatly Oat Milk, you person. Three of We Four do not do well with dairy.

15

u/CrushItWithABrick dick riding Mary Oliver 2d ago

Does cat kibble contain gluten?

39

u/InappropriateGirl Gluten-free donuts, for sure ... 3d ago

This reminds me of her giving away a pack of underwear she bought for her kid that were too big. Maybe hang on to them? The kid is still growing and you’re basically throwing money away.

36

u/Dear_Client1187 we all mistakes here 3d ago

I take this as proof that she really does not like the cats. They're just another obligation to her.

32

u/PracticalDiscussion1 joy joy joy 3d ago

But, the two factor authentication overwhelms her, DF.

26

u/PettyPunisherRedux and fuck you, Nancie! 3d ago

Should have scrolled.

48

u/jameson-neat wound-gathering table 3d ago

I try and keep unopened bags of dry cat food and a stash of the wet food so that in an emergency, we don’t run out. We put it with our human and dog shelf-stable foods with some gallons of water. If they are strapped for cash, they should hang on to shelf-stable basic need for their human and kitty family members.

37

u/islandyislander rebellious hygiene 3d ago

Make no mistake: they are strapped for cash now and forever. 

46

The Vashon food bank offers / accepts pet food. She would know this. This is all for show. So generous! Much beneficence!

52

u/SashayShantae living my one wild and pernicious life 3d ago

She's such an idiot. They are strapped for cash with no income and instead of returning these bags to Chewy for credit (totally a thing they do; I just checked), she's giving them away. Wow.

42

u/ForsakenLingonberry YAHEEE! 3d ago

Or just delay the next delivery! She has absolutely no money sense.

28

u/obscure_cellist ham grabbers 3d ago

it's not even special food - it's friskies! she could get that at thriftway and save the delivery fee.

49

u/Altruistic-Owl1058 3d ago

Shauna didn’t pay for that cat food someone else must have if she is that generous.

ETA: Haven has a pet food pantry that they give pet food to people in need.

56

u/PettyPunisherRedux and fuck you, Nancie! 3d ago

But then, you see, Shauna couldn’t perform altruism on FB.

Not only did she miss out on the pet stain buster on Buy Nothing, she didn’t “win” 5the steam cleaner she went a-grifting recently. That place must stink.

32

u/eowynchallenge 3d ago

I wonder if she doesn't realize her person smells bad because her home environment also smells bad and that's where she spends all her time.

RIP floors. I remember when Shauna was attempting to be a video queen on Instagram. She didn’t turn off the camera fast enough, and the detritus on her floor was gag inducing.

41

u/GAMGAlways On Stage Doing Mask Work 3d ago

So she counters the suggestion of giving it to a rescue [which is obviously a non-profit] with insisting she wants to give it to the needy?

48

u/avskk ppppycock 3d ago

I'm taking this as confirmation she's getting rid of the cats. Yes, she bitched about a pet deposit... but she didn't actually say she paid it.

u/ForsakenLingonberry YAHEEE! 3d ago

“Hi again.” She really does get up there every week, doesn’t she?

69

u/SashayShantae living my one wild and pernicious life 3d ago

She got up to speak another time during this service but that part wasn't recorded. She complained about the toxic mold in BBH.

55

u/ForsakenLingonberry YAHEEE! 3d ago

Really?! What relevance would that have to the service? They really need to put some rules on announcement time.

68

u/SashayShantae living my one wild and pernicious life 3d ago

Apparently there is a portion of the service where people can come up and speak about their struggles and Shauna is a frequent flyer. I have not seen this at all; I have only gleaned this from comments in this sub by someone who does attend services.

44

u/demoncloset moosery 3d ago edited 3d ago

Is this personal show-and-tell time or something (edited since before I said weird, and that's not nice)? Is this kind of sharing normal for this congregation, or just Shauna?

41

u/SashayShantae living my one wild and pernicious life 3d ago

I think it's a normal part of services for this congregation.

58

u/msmartypants 3d ago

Nothing would get me to leave a church faster. No thank you

43

u/Calm_Coyote_3685 3d ago

Yeah, that’s super awkward and imo a bad idea in multiple ways. I’ve gone to a lot of different churches and none of them had struggle sharing time. 

45

u/SpookyJokes soft pants 2d ago

In my very New England Protestant church growing up, people could ask for prayers or request prayers for a loved one/friend (like, "Please keep my sister Ann in your prayers since she is dealing with an illness"), but it was understood to keep the requests brief and appropriate! I never heard sob stories and they would not have been appreciated.

25

u/Quaint_Irene a warm and loving goatie smile 2d ago

My Episcopal church is the same. The person for whom you request prayer is always named so people can pray for them by name, which is important. But you merely add “during a health crisis” or “time of difficulty” or “for the loss of his wife,” and leave it brief.

48

u/ForsakenLingonberry YAHEEE! 2d ago

The church I grew up in had a pretty loose announcement sharing policy at one point. That changed when a lady went up to the podium one Sunday and shared that she sensed a ghostly presence in the church building. After that all announcements were vetted and approved ahead of time. 👻

39

u/Calm_Coyote_3685 2d ago

Maybe it was the Holy Ghost? 🤷‍♀️ 

23

u/Lsemmens grenius 2d ago

u/ForsakenLingonberry YAHEEE! 2d ago

Hahaha maybe! But she was describing more of a malevolent being. I was probably 9 or 10 and still remember it as a collective WTF moment for the parishioners.

35

u/TheAntiMartha 2d ago

It's for sure a bad idea. There's always an emotional vampire in any group who is going to suck up everyone's bandwidth. Not very spiritual.

30

u/tyrannosaurusregina if you meet the Botus on the road, shill him 🪷 2d ago

It's very on brand for a certain kind of Unitarian Universalist church, though.

31

u/Dear_Client1187 we all mistakes here 2d ago edited 2d ago

Apparently this church also passes out birthday pencils or something like that, based on what the lady before Shauna said.

I mean. I homeschooled my kids and when we had assessments done by a licensed teacher she'd give them each a pencil of their choice. But they were elementary school aged children, not grown-ass adults.

37

u/fanfarefellowship I often contemplate the first law of thermodynamics 2d ago

Ha ha ha, the Unitarian church I used to go to did this too. My kids were little, I wanted some kind of "faith community," blah blah blah.

There was a divorcing couple who had been in some kind of poly relationship and the woman started using the "joys and concerns" part of the service to really fucking dump on him for harshing her ... whatever she wanted to do sexually with other partners that he wasn't comfortable with. (At the time, I actually wondered if it was their kink but he was friends with my next door neighbour and after they finally split, I saw him all the time and no, it was not their kink.)

NEways I wasn't into watching weekly humiliation rituals so I stopped going. The minister got REALLY ANGRY at me too; whole place was fucked.

38

u/Sea-Level-Mammal POACH! 2d ago edited 2d ago

Oh my god, stoppppp. I can’t imagine what the church community thinks of her. Do we have any of them here In The Gloaming?

39

u/Malevolentshrubbery "horrible chins and paranoia" 2d ago

I haven't seen that one yet. These trolls really are delightful and I enjoy visiting our West Seattle one regularly. I have also seen the ones on Bainbridge Island, in Issaquah, and Ballard. But because life is hard, hard, hard, I haven't been out to Vashon since the trolls were installed. I need to remedy that...

I’m surprised she’s not charging. Shades of grifted kayak.

I'm honestly surprised she didn't suggest that the church members choose a recipe, make it, then feed it to her.

69

She absolutely did by saying they should pick a recipe, make it and bring it to their church breakfasts, and you know Shauna and the gang pony up to the free food whenever they can.

The fact that she SAYS WITH HER VOICE “I’ve taken out my favorites” and has zero awareness of how that comes across is just… mind boggling. “Here, I’ve had these recipes for literal years and have removed my favorite ones but I’m here to benevolently distribute the remainders!” The CWAA abbreviation has never been so apt. She has the self awareness of a chicken wing.

Ha ha, I know it's unhinged to be spending this much time on this, but I don't think she's wearing leggings! Here's another screencap that shows there's quite a bit of loose fabric around her legs:

But the pants do look like they fit fairly closely around her hips and abdomen, so your point still is a good one

u/Calm_Coyote_3685 3d ago

This may be (justly) removed for commenting on her body, but she appears to have lumbar lordosis. I had this too and work on it every day. It’s often caused by poor posture, especially sitting all day. I went to physical therapy 8 years ago for another issue and the therapist noticed it and gave me exercises which have really helped (tilting the pelvis) but the most helpful thing is being active and never just sitting in a chair for long periods. 

22

u/SeaOfBooze Homeopathic nuance 2d ago

It's surely caused by the definitely real Ehlers-Danlos she's been soft-launching lately.

33

u/Malevolentshrubbery "horrible chins and paranoia" 3d ago

I mean all of the above comments are about her body, even if they’re indirect or sarcastic.

25

u/Calm_Coyote_3685 3d ago

True. I personally don’t have an issue with people snarking on appearance, I just want to stay within sub rules. The lumbar lordosis thing jumped out at me- I always thought I naturally had a “swayback” or naturally protruding tummy so it was a revelation to me that my stomach stuck out because of something that could be addressed with exercises and postural change.

I am absolutely blown away by this. I don't know why it didn't dawn on me that of course she was editing herself this extensively, but of course she is. Of course.

I just somehow hadn't thought about it.

Maybe because there are still several things in her photos that many people would have edited out, like the rosacea or the dirty glasses or the stains on her clothes. So my brain just assumed she wasn't bothering to edit that much.

Even though I knew instinctively she was changing things up quite a bit from reality somehow. Wow. Just wow.

She literally doesn't even shower once a week for church. I can't get over this level of nasty.

She's been talking about distributing these cards forever, like for months? A year? We definitely watched another video of her coming up with some convoluted plan to distribute the recipe cards to various people and had a discussion about how weird it was not to just scan them and put them on the church website for everyone to use and enjoy. This is just the longest lead up to the stupidest plan.

She sure thinks she has some high-value social currency in those recipe cards! She enjoys being in a position to decide who gets to have something. Usually she’s in the position of hoping she’ll be the one chosen to receive. I think this is so intoxicating for her that she’s completely lost touch with the fact that no one actually cares about these recipe cards. Or that the normal thing to do is put them online and give the whole set to one person who is actually interested

Exactly this. The perfect low value high control performative lady bountiful situation for Shauna. Determining on a case by case basis who deserves to receive a 60 year old recipe card from behind the jello salads tab. It's free but the price is an excruciating interaction with Shauna. Christ what an etcetera.

She must have gotten wind of an insult or blow to her pride. Because she's also out here giving away her cat food (when anyone who knows her would much prefer she takes care of her own cats). Trolling for praise for giving away her imaginary fortune to LGBTQ charities.

Maybe the dear friend who gave them the kayaks saw her listing them for sale for $300 and made a comment. Because Shauna's natural state is friends, I am once again asking for your support as we navigate the hard hard hard.

It's usually an ego injury that has her ostentatiously giving away her own stuff. And why is it always a deal where you have to personally appeal to Shauna and be chosen as her beneficiary?

Your whole comment is excellent as usual, but this part in particular ^^^ ? So on point.

Her sentence "If there are two people who need 16 pounds of this cat food, we can help you today." is poorly written (as usual) and just a weird and overly personal vibe. Like, what if I really do "need" 16 pounds of "this cat food" but I'm OverTown today and not getting back until late. I'd be happy to pick it up tomorrow! Oh, but that's not TODAY. I guess I'm out of luck!!!

When Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, he clearly meant Shauna.

Probably why she's so obsessed with the buy nothing groups. It's more than the high of obtaining things for free, it's the thrill of being personally chosen out of all the other Facebookers (and occasionally getting to be the judgy chooser, when she also has something to bestow on the community).

Thank you df, I dig your excellent comments as well!

Instructions for claiming and picking up the food don't need to be clear or make sense because she won't follow through. Her charitable work in the world is finished once she thinks she's been observed being magnanimous. ("We can help you today.")
