spot the stylistic difference? yea, me neither.

the way she changes her presets to match whatever i am using currently as well as her abandoning the beige/white build style she used to have to instead replicate my style of decorating (random screencap of hers and random screencap of mine - didn't cherry pick anything for a reason)

very strong similarities in sims style, from oldest to newest, with her style changing every time mine does (there's more and i remember some better examples that popped up on my dash before i blocked her, but from what i can tell she's wiped a lot of posts off her tumblr)

or even something small, like how i started using polaroids in my thumbnails and suddenly it became "her thing" on every thumbnail. can i copyright a polaroid? no. is it weird that her stuff always mirrors mine? yeah, a little.

there's more, like how her first legacy's gen 1 is eerily similar to one of my hot tea sims or how her desire to write a new "ranch life rags to riches legacy" popped up about, uh... a week? after i started playing a ranch life rags to riches.

and before anyone tries to tell me "she probably doesn't even watch your content!", well

i'm pretty sure she does, as stated in this vod.

see, i have kept this to myself for a long time and watched in silence as she'd adjust her style and channel depending on the changes i'd make to mine. i didn't say anything because i'm just not confrontational (and i didn't know how to approach it, because it's not just "specific" things, it's quite literally The Whole of my channel and hers), but it does piss me off that somebody is basing their rebrand off of my content without even acknowledging the fact that originally they left due to racist remarks they never apologized for.

i may not be very active on youtube anymore, something that, i'm sure, was very beneficial to her in this case, but i do get her content recommended to me as well as sent to me by friends and i have observed this constant stylistic copypasting for a long time.
