The Lolcow Shortbus Betrayal: Amberlynn Reid Joins Keemstar

In January 2026, after being demonetized and facing financial ruin, Amberlynn joined Keemstar's "Lolcow Bus" podcast—and immediately betrayed everything she claimed to stand for.

FINANCIAL DESPERATION

After YouTube demonetized her channel in late 2025, Amberlynn had no savings despite earning hundreds of thousands of dollars over her career. She wiped her channel, hoping to return after the enforcement period. The Lolcow Bus gig was her only income source—and she was willing to accept animals for "content" to stay relevant.

IMMEDIATE CENSORSHIP

During her debut appearance, she attempted to ban paying members who asked about Rarity, proving she cannot handle even the mildest accountability, proving she joined a "Lolcow" show without understanding that she IS the lolcow—not the host.

THE PATTERN CONTINUES

This mirrors the Gracie incident from years ago: lose/kill an animal, immediately acquire a replacement before anyone can process what happened. Controlling the narrative through distraction is her specialty.

JANUARY 2026: DAILY LOG

JAN 01: THE DEBUT

Day 1

JAN 17: THE TINA SHOWDOWN

Day 17 - MAJOR INCIDENT

TRANSCRIPT LEAK:
"I got two legs... I'm a hero not a zero. Don't do it, get the f*** out of here. I'm stealing her Hershey kisses."
  • Rage Quit: Amberlynn "lost control" and stormed off the stream after Tina mocked her hygiene and weight.

FEBRUARY 2026: CRASHOUTS, CONFESSIONS & THE EMILY EXPOSÉ

FEB 01 - FEB 03: THE POWER TRIP

Early February

  • Demands: Amberlynn demanded moderator privileges to "clean up the chat," threatening to quit if she couldn't ban her haters.
  • The Reality: Keemstar laughed it off. She has no power, and she hates it.

FEB 04: THE OVERSHARE & PANIC

Major Incident

  • The Slip-Up: In a moment of rage, she leaked personal details about a new "friend" (potential caretaker) she's talking to.
  • The Backtrack: Immediately panicked and tried to claim she was "trolling." The cycle of "Overshare -> Regret -> Gaslight" is now happening live in 4K.

FEB 05 - FEB 06: "WWE" ERA

Declining Interest

  • Scripted Drama: Viewers are noticing the fights feel "staged" (Jerry Springer style). Amberlynn is a bad actor, and her fake outrage is exhausting the audience.
  • Declining Views: The novelty is wearing off. People are tired of the same cycle. She is becoming boring even as a Lolcow.

FEB 07: THE CASEY FLIP-FLOP MAJOR GASLIGHTING

Live on Stream

  • The History: In old videos, Amberlynn admitted on camera that she kicked Casey. She said it. She filmed it. It exists.
  • The Denial: On the Lolcow Bus, she now claims she never kicked Casey and that the entire allegation was fabricated by "haydurs." She is denying video evidence of her own words.
  • The DARVO: When confronted with her own admission, she flipped to victim mode: "Casey was the abuser, not me." This is textbook DARVO — she admitted it, then denied it, then reversed the roles.
  • The Pattern: She has now told at least three contradictory versions of the Casey situation: (1) admitted kicking, (2) denied kicking, (3) claimed Casey was the abusive one. You cannot tell three stories and expect any of them to be believed.

FEB 08: RARITY LIES MULTIPLY STORY CHANGES AGAIN

The Lies Keep Coming

  • Original Claim: Amberlynn said she accidentally left the door open and Rarity escaped. She said this on video in November 2025.
  • Blame Emily: After fighting with Emily, she changed the story — now Emily was the one who left the door open. She weaponized a dead cat to win an argument.
  • Latest Version: On the Lolcow Bus, she now claims the entire Rarity situation was "blown out of proportion" and implies Emily fabricated details. She is gaslighting the audience about an event she filmed herself.
  • The Count: This is now at least the 5th contradictory story about Rarity. The timeline shift, the blame shift, the fake search, the delayed disclosure, and now the wholesale denial. Every time she opens her mouth, a new version appears.

FEB 09 - FEB 10: THE GASLIGHTING COMPILATION

Pattern Fully Exposed

  • Admit, Deny, Reverse — Repeat: The community has now compiled a supercut of every time Amberlynn admitted something on camera and later denied it. The Casey kick admission, the Krystle hitting admission, the Rarity door story — all on video, all later denied.
  • Live Chat Meltdowns: When members post timestamps of her own contradictions, she either ignores, bans, or rage-quits. She cannot face her own words played back to her.
  • "I Never Said That": Her most-used phrase on the Lolcow Bus. She has said it about Casey, about Rarity, about her hygiene, about her weight. She says it about everything — and there is video proof every single time.

FEB 11: THE EMILY TEXT EXPOSÉ BOMBSHELL

Emily Goes Nuclear

  • Rachel Gets The Receipts: Emily shared a full thread of texts with reaction channel Rachel, who published them with timestamps and screenshots. The community had been waiting for this moment.
  • The Texts: Documented exchanges show Amberlynn suicide-baiting Emily when Emily tried to leave — threatening self-harm as a control tactic. Standard coercive behaviour.
  • Life Insurance: In one text, Amberlynn referenced Emily's life insurance policy. This is not a normal thing to bring up in a relationship argument. The community immediately recognized it as a threat.
  • The Reframe: After physically harming Emily, she texted to frame her violence as being "concerned" for Emily — classic DARVO in writing. She built her own paper trail of abuse and then handed it to her victim.
  • Reaction: LordyItsJordy, Sinatra Says, and multiple other channels uploaded same-day coverage. The texts were cross-verified by multiple community members who screenshotted Rachel's full video.

FEB 12 - FEB 13: THE 3AM CRASHOUT MAJOR INCIDENT

Solo Stream Meltdown

  • Solo at 3AM: With no co-hosts, no moderators, and 8,000+ insomniacs watching, Amberlynn opened the Lolcow Bus after-hours stream alone. It immediately became one of the most-documented meltdowns of her career.
  • "I Don't Care About Rarity": In an unguarded moment she declared she did not care about Rarity — the cat she had been publicly grieving for months. The clip spread instantly.
  • Casey Admission: Said Casey "deserved it" in reference to the physical abuse allegations — the abuse she has denied for years, now casually confirmed in a sleep-deprived rant.
  • Hygiene Confession: Dismissed Wipegate entirely with "who cares if I don't shower every day" — directly contradicting her previous public statements and months of denials.
  • Documented & Clipped: Multiple reaction channels including ThiccGemini (with @LifeWithR0N) uploaded the full reaction. The 3AM stream VOD was deleted but screen recordings were already distributed. Mr. Snowflake's clip compilation alone reached hundreds of thousands of views.

FEB 14 - FEB 15: THE RETURN (OF COURSE)

She Came Back. She Always Comes Back.

  • No Acknowledgement: Returned to Lolcow Live the very next day as if the crashout never happened. Did not address the Casey statement. Did not address the Rarity statement. Did not address the hygiene statement. Classic post-crashout Amberlynn.
  • "I Was Trolling": When chat brought up the 3AM stream, she claimed she was "being silly" and "trolling the haydurs." She was not trolling. 8,000 people watched her unravel in real time.
  • Platform Leverage: The crashout has become a recurring format. "Crashout Live" is now a known event type in the community — viewers tune in specifically hoping to catch her at her most unguarded. The chaos IS the content now.

FEB 16: CURRENT STATUS AS OF TODAY

Updated February 16, 2026

  • Still On The Bus: She is still an official Lolcow Live co-host. Keemstar has not removed her because she generates views — crashouts, confessions, and all.
  • No Accountability: The Emily texts have been public for days. She has not addressed them directly or acknowledged the life insurance text. She continues the pattern of pretending documented evidence does not exist.
  • The Cycle Continues: Every stream follows the same arc — denial, deflection, rage quit or meltdown, return the next day, repeat. She has become a permanent lolcow fixture, exactly what she feared and exactly what she signed up for.

THE LIE COUNTER: TOO MANY TO COUNT

Documented contradictions from Amberlynn Reid on the Lolcow Bus alone:

  • Casey: Admitted kicking → Denied kicking → Claimed Casey was the abuser → 3AM crashout: "Casey deserved it"
  • Krystle: Admitted hitting → Denied hitting → "I was young and it was mutual"
  • Rarity: "I left the door open" → "Emily left the door open" → "It's blown out of proportion" → "Emily fabricated it" → 3AM crashout: "I don't care about Rarity"
  • Hygiene: "I shower every day" → Emily's audio proves otherwise → "Emily is lying for clout" → 3AM crashout: "Who cares if I don't shower every day"
  • Emily Texts: "Emily is lying" → Texts published by Rachel with timestamps → Life insurance reference confirmed in writing → "I was trolling"
  • Weight: Claims to be losing → Visibly larger on every stream
  • Twinkie: "She's healthy" → Nails curling into paw pads on camera

Every admission has a corresponding denial. Every denial has video proof. She is gaslighting an entire audience in real-time.

The Anatomy of Manipulation: Amberlynn Reid's DARVO Tactics

Amberlynn never admits fault. Instead, she weaponizes a predictable, toxic cycle to evade accountability. Whether addressing dead pets or abused partners, the script remains the same.

STEP 1: IGNORE & FEIGN IGNORANCE

The Tactic: She pretends the question doesn't exist or claims she "missed" it. If pressed, she plays dumb.

"I didn't see that superchat."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Huh? That's confusing."

STEP 2: GASLIGHT & DENY

The Tactic: When cornered, she denies objective reality. She tells the audience they are crazy for remembering what she filmed herself doing.

"I never said that." (There is video proof)
"You guys twist everything."
"That's a narrative you created."

LIVE EXAMPLE (Feb 2026): On the Lolcow Bus she denied ever saying she kicked Casey — despite admitting it on camera in her own videos.

STEP 3: SHIFT BLAME (DARVO)

The Tactic: She reverses the victim and offender. It's never her fault; she was "forced" or "manipulated" into it.

"Beck made me eat that."
"Emily left the door open."
"The haydurs ruined my weight loss."

LIVE EXAMPLE (Feb 2026): After denying the Casey kick, she reversed it entirely — claiming Casey was the abusive partner, not her.

STEP 4: ATTACK THE ASKER

The Tactic: Final stage. If you still want answers, you are a "bully," "fatphobic," or "pathetic." She insults your intelligence/life to shut you up.

"You have no life."
"Touch grass."
"You're just a miserable haydur."

"It is a closed loop of toxicity. You cannot win, because she rewrites reality in real-time. The only winning move is not to play—but she forces her partners to play until they break." — Behavioral Pattern Analysis

The 5 Lies About Rarity: Amberlynn Reid's Cat Disappearance

In November 2025, Amberlynn's cat Rarity "disappeared" while visiting her girlfriend Emily (Tommy) in Wisconsin. She told at least five conflicting stories about what happened — and on the Lolcow Bus in February 2026, she added yet another version.

LIE #1

The Timeline Shift

HER CLAIM:

In a video posted November 18, Amberlynn stated Rarity went missing "two nights ago" (which would be November 16).

THE TRUTH:

She later changed the date to November 17 at 5:00 AM. This inconsistency suggests she didn't actually know when the cat vanished—because she wasn't paying attention. SEE TIMELINE ANALYSIS

LIE #2

The Blame Game (Step 3)

HER CLAIM:

"I left the door open accidentally. It was my fault."

THE TRUTH:

Classic DARVO. After a fight with Emily, she changed her story to blame Emily for leaving the door open. She weaponized the cat's death to win an argument with her girlfriend. WATCH CONFESSION

LIE #3

The "Search"

HER CLAIM:

"I searched all day. I was devastated. I couldn't stop looking."

THE TRUTH:

Emily confirmed that Amberlynn spent the day on her phone scrolling social media while Emily and others searched for the cat. She did not actively participate in the search. HEAR WITNESS

LIE #4

The Discovery

HER CLAIM:

"I noticed within 20 minutes that she was gone."

THE TRUTH:

Emily stated that Amberlynn did not tell her the cat was missing until 10:00 PM—hours after she supposedly noticed. VIEW PROOF

LIE #5

The Wholesale Denial (Lolcow Bus, Feb 2026)

HER CLAIM:

On the Lolcow Bus in February 2026, Amberlynn now claims the entire Rarity situation was "blown out of proportion" and implies Emily fabricated or exaggerated details for clout.

THE TRUTH:

She is gaslighting the audience about an event she filmed herself. She told the first four stories on her own channel. Emily's account corroborates the timeline inconsistencies. Amberlynn is now trying to erase her own recorded words — the same pattern she uses with Casey, Krystle, and every other person she has harmed.

The Wider Pattern (Gracie)

The Rarity incident is nearly identical to the Gracie incident from years prior, where Amberlynn allegedly let Destiny's cat "escape" so she could get a new kitten. SEE GRACIE EVIDENCE

Amberlynn Reid Partner Abuse Timeline: 5+ Documented Victims

Amberlynn Reid has a documented pattern of abusing every romantic partner she has had. This is not a series of bad breakups; it is a systematic application of DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender) to dismantle her partners' boundaries and self-worth.

CASEY (Arizona Era, ~4 Years) WATCH INTERVIEW

Early relationship, pre-YouTube fame

  • Physical & Emotional Abuse: Casey alleges Amberlynn was physically abusive throughout the relationship. Amberlynn herself admitted on video to kicking Casey.
  • Controlling Behavior: Casey describes being controlled and isolated during the relationship.
  • False Counter-Allegations: After Casey came forward, Amberlynn made counter-claims of being abused—claims Casey and witnesses deny.
  • Lolcow Bus Flip-Flop (Feb 2026): On the Lolcow Bus, Amberlynn first denied ever kicking Casey—contradicting her own video admission—then flipped to claiming Casey was the abuser. Three contradictory versions of the same event: admitted it, denied it, reversed it. Textbook DARVO.

KRYSTLE (2011-2015, ~4 Years)

Peak YouTube growth period

  • Financial Exploitation: Lived off Krystle's disability income (~$1,400/month) while refusing to work.
  • Admitted Physical Abuse: In old videos, Amberlynn admitted to hitting Krystle—then later denied ever being physical.
  • Privacy Violations: Constantly filmed Krystle despite her social anxiety and discomfort.

DESTINY (2015-2017) SEE GRACIE CLIP

Pensacola, Florida era

  • Gracie's "Disappearance": Destiny's cat Gracie went missing under suspicious circumstances; Amberlynn showed callousness.
  • Rapid Pet Replacement: Replaced Gracie with a new kitten (Wasabi) within days.
  • Animal Neglect: Documented rough handling and veterinary neglect of pets.

BECK (2017-2021, ~4 Years)

Kentucky era, most documented relationship

  • Financial Control: Created total financial and transportation dependence.
  • Verbal Abuse: Beck documented being "verbally attacked" and receiving demeaning comments about appearance.
  • "Wipegate" Origin: Beck was forced to assist with personal hygiene due to Amberlynn's size and immobility.

EMILY / "TOMMY" / "OAK" (July 2025 - December 2025) LISTEN TO LEAK

Wisconsin era — A confirmed feeder whose previous partner died at over 1,000 lbs

  • Hygiene Confirmation: Emily leaked audio confirming Amberlynn "didn't shower very often...it got less and less" and "never washed her hands."
  • Rarity's Death: The cat disappeared in Wisconsin under Emily's watch; Amberlynn blamed Emily after their fight.
  • Confirmed Feeder — Previous Partner Died: Emily's previous girlfriend died in April 2024 weighing over 1,000 lbs from weight-related complications. Emily created and sold feeder fetish material of this partner right until the end — the last transaction was dated March 2024, one month before her death. Two months after speaking at the funeral, Emily was in Amberlynn's DMs.
  • Feeder Tumblr: Emily's Tumblr account featured feeder content starring 800-pound women in hospital beds on oxygen tanks. She claims she "hasn't had a Tumblr since November 2024" — the community doesn't believe her.
  • Assault & Suicide-Baiting: Emily shared text messages with YouTuber Rachel showing Amberlynn assaulted Emily, then flipped it — claiming she "laid hands on Emily out of concern." In the same texts, Amberlynn suicide-baited Emily and referenced Emily's life insurance policy.
  • Talking to Detractors: After the breakup, Emily began sharing evidence with multiple reaction channels including Rachel, Sinatra Says, and others. She leaked texts, voice notes, and audio recordings documenting Amberlynn's behavior. Emily is actively talking about how terrible Amberlynn is — and she has the receipts.

Wipegate: The Amberlynn Reid Hygiene Scandal (Audio Evidence)

This is not "fat shaming." This is documented evidence that Amberlynn Reid forces her partners to become caretakers for basic hygiene. HEAR THE AUDIO

"SHE DOESN'T SHOWER"

Emily leaked audio recordings confirming that Amberlynn went weeks without showering, instead using washcloths for "bird baths." Emily stated: "She didn't ever wash her hands after going to the bathroom, but she used the washcloths."

"It got less and less and less... She was so upset and offended when I asked her to clean up after herself." — Emily (leaked audio, December 2025)

FORCED CAREGIVING

Due to her size and immobility, Amberlynn requires assistance with personal care. She forces partners (Beck confirmed this) to perform tasks she cannot physically do—then weaponizes their help to guilt them into staying.

Emily "Tommy" — The Feeder, The Fallout, and The Receipts

Emily (also known as Tommy, Oak, or "The Schlomi") is Amberlynn Reid's most recent ex-partner. She is a confirmed feeder whose previous partner died weighing over 1,000 lbs. After the breakup, Emily turned to detractors — and brought the receipts.

THE FEEDER HISTORY: A BODY COUNT

Emily's previous girlfriend died in April 2024 from weight-related complications. She weighed over 1,000 lbs at the time of death.

  • Emily created and sold feeder fetish material of her dying partner — the last transaction was dated March 2024, one month before she died
  • The deceased partner had posted about NOT wanting to do feeder content for money because she didn't want to lose her disability benefits — Emily did it anyway
  • Emily spoke at her dead girlfriend's funeral. Two months later, Emily was in Amberlynn's DMs
  • Amberlynn started dating Emily in June 2024 — barely after the body was cold
  • Allegations include: "stole her wife, fattened her up with protein shakes, and stuffed her in the basement"

Emily has a documented history of targeting vulnerable, immobile women and profiting from feeding them. Amberlynn Reid was her next project.

THE TUMBLR EVIDENCE

Emily's Tumblr account was discovered featuring feeder pornography starring 800-pound women in hospital beds on oxygen tanks.

When confronted, Emily claimed she "hasn't had a Tumblr since November 2024." The community response was unanimous disbelief. Tumblr was made for people like her.

This isn't a fetish. This is a predator who gets off on watching immobile women die — and she dated the most famous immobile woman on the internet.

EMILY TALKS: THE DETRACTOR ALLIANCE

After the breakup, Emily began actively sharing evidence with reaction channels and "detractors" that Amberlynn spent years trying to silence:

  • Rachel (Rachel Reacts): Emily shared text messages showing Amberlynn's assault, suicide-baiting, and life insurance references
  • Sinatra Says: Covered Emily's leaked texts and voice notes in multiple videos
  • LordyItsJordy: Presented receipts documenting the feeder allegations and timeline
  • Community at Large: Emily has been openly talking about how terrible Amberlynn is — confirming what detractors have said for years

Every ex eventually talks. Every ex confirms the same story. Emily is just the latest in a long line of partners who tried to stay silent — and couldn't.

THE TEXTS: ASSAULT, SUICIDE-BAITING, AND LIFE INSURANCE

Emily shared private text messages with YouTuber Rachel that exposed Amberlynn at her absolute worst:

  • The Assault: Texts from the incident where Amberlynn physically assaulted Emily
  • The DARVO: In the same conversation, Amberlynn flipped the script — claiming she "laid hands on Emily out of concern" for her safety. Classic abuser language.
  • The Suicide-Baiting: Amberlynn used threats of self-harm to manipulate Emily into staying or complying. This is textbook emotional abuse.
  • The Life Insurance: In the texts, Amberlynn referenced Emily's life insurance policy. The implications speak for themselves.

These texts were screenshotted and published. Amberlynn had a meltdown. The evidence exists. She cannot delete it.

"Every partner Amberlynn has ever had eventually confirms what the 'haydurs' said all along. Emily was supposed to be different — she was supposed to be the one who stayed quiet. She didn't." — GorlWorld Community, February 2026
