## Article

Stop it. She launched Unfiltered for $8.99 a month and the first freakin' post was a ring light selfie about how ring lights are fake. Then she said this is just me, and the kitchen is rented, and the About page called authenticity a practice, and the practice had a SKU. That's the pose. The receipt is the most real object in the app. Quit it with the receipt.
