Journalism is not a crime.
On April 18, 2023, Turtleboy began reporting on this case and asking questions others wouldn’t.
Today marks 1,194 days.
Love him or hate him, understand what he’s fighting for. The right to investigate, ask difficult questions, and report on matters of public interest belongs to all of us.
1,194 days. Turtleboy was right then, and he’s still right today.

@Lefty0420 Yes I know I was just being silly😜 however initially when I seen it I was thinking huh… then it clicked… that was why my hashtag was moo or meow
I have to admit, seeing Jess actually write “I’m sorry” caught my attention, because she has repeatedly said herself that she doesn’t apologize, never has, never will because, in her view, she’s never wrong. So at first glance, “I’m sorry” almost looks like a step in the right direction.
But then you read what follows. It isn’t really, “I said something hurtful and I’m sorry I said it.” It’s essentially, “I’m sorry, but I wasn’t talking about all of you I was only talking about her.” That’s not taking responsibility for the cruelty of the comment. It’s narrowing the target. And that’s the pattern I keep seeing: there seems to be no pause between feeling slighted and reacting publicly no moment to consider how the words being thrown at one person might also affect countless other people listening.
Then, when those words understandably upset people, suddenly “it was a joke,” “that’s not what I meant,” or “I wasn’t talking about you” becomes the explanation.
But explaining who the insult was intended for doesn’t undo the insult. The cycle seems to repeat: feel slighted → rage → say something unnecessarily cruel or personal → get called out → minimize, justify or explain it away. I genuinely think more people will eventually recognize the pattern, because it’s difficult to hide when someone repeatedly broadcasts it themselves.
You cannot control how other people treat you. You can control what comes out of your own mouth. Accountability isn’t explaining why you believe someone deserved the insult. It’s recognizing that, regardless of what they did, the words you chose were still yours.
This insensitive HOG. Calling someone out for being “barren” bitch has no concept just how many woman have had issues conceiving, or being able to go full term. That’s the only thing this HOG excelled at is laying on her back while rando’s used her. Drag this insensitive HOG. She wants empathy for her fuked up life over decisions she made. Yet, wants to be hurtful to others that didn’t make the choice to be “barren”. She is beyond disgusting. She can’t blame anyone but herself for the hatred she receives.
Closing arguments are today in the Lindsay Clancy trial.
Jess Machado decided that last night would be an appropriate time to mock postpartum depression. Jess also “covered” the Kelsey Fitzsimmons case. I guess it’s all just a joke to her.
Exactly. Over the last year Jess wasn’t having private conversations with a few trusted friends or “besties.” They were live-streamed and broadcast to thousands of strangers. Jess chose to make deeply personal parts of her family life public content, including her children’s names, places they worked-including work schedules, relationships, struggles, family conflicts, sensitive circumstances and, at times, information many parents would consider embarrassing, private even dangerous.
There are hours upon hours of it, preserved in her own words. So when portions of that information resurface later, the uncomfortable reality is that much of it didn’t come from someone secretly digging into her private life.
She recorded it. She broadcast it. She made it content.
There is a very big difference between inventing private information about someone’s children and replaying information a parent voluntarily disclosed to thousands of people. You cannot turn your family’s private life into public content and then act as though everyone else invaded your privacy when your own words come back around.
@jessmachadoshow@lisamw11 See, the difference between me and you is that when you go low you just have to make shit up. When I go low I just share court docs or hit play on one of your public airings of sensitive information involving Kayla’s son who Jeffie abandoned.
Has Jess actually tuned in to NK recently… I have no issues with it, but I was just curious as she has said many times she doesn’t watch other creators…IYKYK
@moor80374 Anyone that orders anything from her has to be on her level of crazy, and I hope they don’t expect to receive anything.
PSA This isn’t something new, she has a history of not being “successful” at producing products people buy or order from her.
Day 1,227 & Turtleboy is still right!
☕️ Good morning, y’all!
April 18, 2023, was the day Turtleboy first began reporting on the Karen Read case and exposing corruption. What followed became a movement
1,227 days later… Turtleboy was right then. He’s still right today. 💜🐢 Love him or hate him, remember: the principles at stake affect all of us.
Journalism, free speech, and engaging in peaceful petitioning activity are not crimes. #FreeTurtleboy #JournalismIsNotACrime
@snatchdonkeyJM Yikes, and yeah she does ask that most of the time. Wtf … who knows but Julia was like Im getting outta here, shortly after moving in with Jeff … 🤔🤨🤔
Ok but if you are that emotional and are going to act out of emotion and discuss your kids and what you think should be private family matters maybe log off. She’s come for Aidan about being a bad father, so if she responded out of emotion should we say that maybe Aidan did the same?
I actually did support Jess also, but I unsubscribed when she continued talking about Aidan and things I would view as private information he share with her. It wasn’t until she blasted out that Bederow had quit, and never confirmed it before doing so that I was like she’s not a friend. Even if Bederow had quit, wouldn’t you think it would be something Aidan would share, and not Jess. Do you agree? She’s done things similar to that from the start, and I think it’s wrong. I mean imagine you told a good friend something privately and she went on the internet and shared it with thousands of people, would you be upset? Then you ask her please don’t do that and it happens repeatedly. That is betrayal IMO
This is exactly where it crosses a line for me.
There is zero evidence presented here that anyone knows what Aidan’s daughter thinks about her father, yet people are confidently declaring that she “hates him,” will want nothing to do with him, and will eventually be mortified by him as though they have some personal knowledge of this child or her relationship with her dad. They don’t.
And the irony is hard to miss considering that just yesterday Jess publicly discussed her own past parenting decisions involving her then-14-year-old daughter and guardianship. Whatever anyone thinks about those circumstances, Jess made sure to tell people her “story” before judging her choices. Meanwhile her supporters freely invent narratives about another person’s child with absolutely no evidence.
Criticize adults for things they have actually said and done. There is certainly enough material to debate without dragging children into it or predicting how they will feel about their parents years from now. Kids should not be collateral damage in adults’ internet feuds.
His daughter already hates him. When her friends ask about him she just ignores it. I hope she has nothing to do with him. Matter of fact she would be better off without him and Julie knows he is going away soon. She makes him "watch" the kids at her house. How does a father "watch"their own kids?
