One thing about Eliot is he's gonna go so in on a grift. A wedding caterer? Get the fuck outta his way he's got two hundred guests to cook for and these canapes aren't gonna plate themselves. A baseball player? Fuck the con he gets a damn sandwich named after him. A supermarket worker? He's doing his full day of work AND THEN starting a union uprising first chance he gets. Sophie is "the grifter" but Eliot is the one who can match and beat her freak for commiting to a character so hard it becomes your new personality for the next week
#not even counting when he bit into a live snake and performed an oscar-worthy death scene#this man is constantly chomping at the bit to be a little freak on the con and I can never get enough#one thing I love about redemption is them letting all the characters be even more batshit insane with their grift characters#eliot spencer#leverage#leverage 2008#leverage redemption

Oh, that explains why I'm getting hate today. STA made a post about me. They must be really upset that a forensic scientist posting reasonable and measured takes, explaining how forensic science works, using their experience as a colloquially known "death expert" to debunk things, calling out propaganda, calling out antisemitism, and using their years of experience as a professor and scientist to address misinformation is undermining their entire grift.
But that's STA's MO. They have to lie about the content of a blog they don't like to villainize it. Especially if that blog isn't a massive vitriolic cesspit that instead offers nuanced takes and doesn't take radical accelerationist positions that are supported by appeals to emotion. For STA, if you come back to my blog, remember how you pretended to be an Israeli then got caught using a bad translator that used niqqud and put out stuff that modern Hebrew speakers said was wrong? Remember how you then retconned your backstory to being an Israeli-ex pat who moved to CT because of the war? Which still didn't explain why you couldn't actually write Hebrew like someone who grew up in Israel? So you then retconned again to someone whose family moved when they were a teen to CT? And that another retcon still didn't explain how you failed at faking speaking Hebrew so badly? Then when people checked with the CT communities and no one could verify an Israeli ex-pat family according to your backstory you retconned to just being "ethnically Jewish"?
Remember how you pretended to be a "Zionist" but were just pushing stereotypical Kahanist rhetoric to try and get Zionists to agree with you, and when jumblr called you out you then became a raging antisemite and got your original blog deactivated by staff? You remember that, right?
I guess your grift is going well since you're sending people my way, but I'm loving that they have to make throwaways to send me hate. Have fun with that.
And for anyone coming to my blog to spread said hate and attack me, a big red warning sign that an account is not run by an actual Jew is if they call other Jews they disagree with Nazis. We have words for that kind of person, Nazi is not one of them because the core of Nazism requires antisemitism. Only a Jew-faker who has a history of Jew faking and got their original blog nuked by staff would call a Jew a Nazi.
Notice how they don't call out Christian Zionists and focus solely on calling Jews the "real" Nazis? Yeah...that should be your first and only moment to realize stoptheantisemitism isn't who or what they say they are.
Unfortunately I know none of this will be accepted by their fan base and that respective circle of antisemites. But hey, one can hope. Right?
(Also, for clarity; the receipts are out there but the original blog that had them deactivated for personal reasons. Some of them are easily found whereas others are not. We, meaning jumblr, didn't screenshot and catalogue everything during their initial blog because we didn't think that the grift would be this bad. Personally, I yell at myself for not following proper forensic practice and take screenshots for evidence sake. I hate using personal experiences as anecdotal evidence, but that's where we are at. We're in a they said/they said situation. Which is why this is still going on)
#jumblr#antisemitism#leftist antisemitism#intersectional antisemitism#Grifters gonna grift#Stoptheantisemitism is a grifter and you all are falling for it#stoptheantisemitism got outed as a Jew faker like the original tikkunolamresistance did#Yet somehow ya'll still believe they're one of us

I basically think we have lost the subtle art of making fun of people for being grifters. No "true art comes from the human Soul" argument will ever come close to L + Ratio + your understanding of this hobby sucks and your art is boring
#we could all use ai to write something sweet and passable and get a lot of kudos because our blorbos kissed but that's not the hobby!!!!#grifting for attention or even money is a different hobby!!!#my hobby is having an evil idea then making all my friends read it#i don't care someone is making bank selling bad ai romances because grifting for money is not illegal#i don't think it should or can be illegal there are millions of mediocre books out there#capitalist society does not pay people for the actual effort they put in which is obvious to anyone who's ever had a retail job#and is a wider problem#girl your worker's rights!!!

OMG! OMG! OMG! Seriously OMG! Singer Jaguar Wright who has been calling out Diddy for years alleges (in no uncertain terms) that Meghan and Harry were at Diddy freak-off parties and were taped. Says they need to come clean. by u/Positive-Vibes-2-All
OMG! OMG! OMG! Seriously OMG! Singer Jaguar Wright who has been calling out Diddy for years alleges (in no uncertain terms) that Meghan and Harry were at Diddy freak-off parties and were taped. Says they need to come clean. Jaguar Wright a singer has been calling out Diddy and his criminal behaviour for years. She's been part of the hiphop for several decades and has so much tea. For years many dismissed what she was saying and now she has been shown to be truth teller and a very brave one. Anyway the following yt short is her naming people she alleges were at Diddy's freak-off parties and were taped.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bEFuPd5GEdE post link: https://ift.tt/vizHshC author: Positive-Vibes-2-All submitted: September 27, 2024 at 05:40AM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

I like to think that Piper, Leo, Percy, and Annabeth would absolutely team up to make $ on social media making fake ghost videos where Annabeth bust wears her invisibly hat and fucks around and they all pretend the place is haunted
Like imagine they “debunk” stuff by showing there’s no strings or camera cuts or anything and Leo’s behind the camera trying to not cry laughing when Annabeth picks something up off the counter and throws it at Percy’s head
#percabeth#Frank and Hazel do not appreciate internet grifting like the Greeks do smh#pjo headcanon#I decided to stop posting all of my random pjo thoughts on my private snap story where no one understands#and just throw them into this void instead

“Meanwhile, tech companies break into hives at the thought of getting a human to do a job. Their ethos is that if a human can do a task, a machine can do that task better, and not cost them anything such as salary, pensions or or a basic level of respect."

Landed in Japan and taking a bullet train to Osaka. This rules so hard I’m so angry with public transit in the States.

Thank you CBC for somewhat explaining this trend in terms that my parents can understand
#It's the proliferation of incel culture it's the right-wing grift it's entitlement#Deadass that guy bitching about being assulted in Vancouver made me laugh out loud and I'm not even sorry#Baby what do you think the cops do if a woman or other gender reports that? A POC? We get exactly the same response lmfao#Waahhh I can't get a house and the LIBS are so MEAN about me being a MAN :(#Are they or are they asking you. To use your fucking brain. And understand you have less barriers than others.#Like I do think there's a convo to be had about leftist spaces specifically when it comes to men. BUT.#My guy. I'm not coddling you. You are not owed a wife-slave and a suburb house and a job.#Also PP SAT WITH JORDAN PETERSON???? 💀💀💀🤢#Oh also 'the libs want to talk about all this woke shit I don't care' COOL. WE WOULD LIKE TO NOT HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IT TOO#UNTIL IT STOPS BEING A FUCKING PROBLEM WE HAVE TO KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT. YOU OVERGROWN BABY.#Canadian politics#Canada#Current events

I hope you tell them to kill themselves more

#i'm only holding onto this one for people who are so fucking entitled about demanding access to my body so the kyss will still be rationed#specifically for them.#ok those people AND that one guy who implied i've been pretending i want a reduction to scam people out of money this whole time#and that all the awful shit that's happened on the way has been made up for the sake of the grift#i did also tell him to die. he gets one too#but this ask was still so. so funny to read. and not at all what I thought it was going to say#sergle answers

I’ve been thinking about Nate and one aspect of his character that’s underrated is the separation of Nate and his grifts. Like he plays really similar scumbag greasy characters with a hat almost every time, but it’s easy to separate those from Nate a character on Leverage.
#leverage#nathan ford#honestly I think this applies to all grifts#apart from Sophie and Hardison#the grifts are mostly extensions of the characters we already know

i think hardison would be in lost media recovery communities online but he’d also be trying his hardest to make all recordings of a certain country singer named "kenneth crane" become lost media, and feel really kinda bad about it
#alec hardison#leverage#wren speaks#leverageposting#a lot of lost media exists in random archives of tv studios or recording studios or whatever & well. he is uh… uniquely qualified to#‘liberate’ those pieces of media. either by hacking or by grifting & stealing etc.#i think he’d be emotional about the loss of art that people put lots of work into & which other people love and want to find#he has to prevent any copies of eliot’s singing from being publicly available tho bc it’s a major safety concern#oh and all the baseball games that roy harper played in. and that news report of eliot playing w dogs in san lorenzo#actually perhaps…. a lot of news programs in san lorenzo that featured the murdered first lady#i mean sophie is meant to be dead as of season 2.#and while shutting down eliot/kenneth crane fansites was mainly important while they were there bc location being given away#it’s also important that ppl can’t figure out who he’s working with now or the fact he’s definitely alive or that he’s working for a#good cause now etc etc. just makes him more vulnerable & there’s a lot of ppl who want him dead or want revenge

This is JAW-DROPPING TEA from a credible source!!! Mike Zeroh is a youtuber who covers mostly Disney and Marvel studios. He does have industry contacts so is credible. He's reporting Markle is demanding AMONG OTHER THINGS the Marketing team be fired AND the NF Board agrees with her. by u/Positive-Vibes-2-All
This is JAW-DROPPING TEA from a credible source!!! Mike Zeroh is a youtuber who covers mostly Disney and Marvel studios. He does have industry contacts so is credible. He's reporting Markle is demanding AMONG OTHER THINGS the Marketing team be fired AND the NF Board agrees with her. Not only does she and the Board want YT comments turned off but for the trailer to be redone.And Markle is demanding to hand pick a new Marketing team. Markle is claiming the Marketing team used rejected takes! Zeroh is credible, whether he is infallible is another question. Many more details in the videohttps://youtu.be/6yKo6CDEw-4 post link: https://ift.tt/FZKtj7q author: Positive-Vibes-2-All submitted: January 04, 2025 at 09:34PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

So-Ho takes Nigeria on Mother's Day & w/the deception of duper's delight tried to SPIN the reality of 2 scamming grifters into a narrative that it's actually appropriate for her NOT to be mothering her caucasian invisibles in America because it's better for her to be at HOME in the MOTHERland. Only a master manipulator like THE Meghan Markled could contort so many lies into such a stupid explanation for her grifting lifestyle. 🤡
"...and although we are missing our children----we are missing our babies..."
"...it feels very appropriate to be in the MOTHERLAND..."
"...and amongst family..."
"...we cant wait to come back"
#nigerian scam#megxit#spare us#worldwide privacy tour#like a spare#nigerian scammers#misan harriman is a fraud#meghan markle is a bully#meghan markle is a liar#meghan markle is a fraud#voetsek meghan#she markled 🇳🇪#ArcheFRAUD#inGRIFTus#inFLICTus#grifters gonna grift#dumb prince#poverty tourism#it's all about MeMeMe#soho house takes nigeria#the invisibles#master manipulator#meghan markle is delusional
