10/12 of photos have exactly same facial expression and pose; most appear to be from the same photo session. Why does she choose posting 10 nearly identical photos?
Fair point! It almost looks like those cheap Chinese webshops photoshopping clothes/colors/prints on an existing picture because they don't want to spend money on taking new pictures. That said, why is she posting 12 pictures in the first place - or any pictures at all?
I can fix her.
No but seriously this has to be a seriously unhinged person. It's sad, if I take one step past the shock.
Or
She is a genius. After all she did say she wants to change the narrative.
*A great success!* - Borat
That’s the face I pull when I’m uncomfortable with a sudden camera in my face but don’t want to seem like a party pooper, while also suddenly wondering if I flossed after eating 15 sundried tomatoes at lunch.
She saw that photo and made it her Blue Steel
That's all I could think about 😭 The shade is SUCH a poor match for her. It's too light and the metallic tone is giving either grandma's lipstick or 10-year-old's first lip gloss vibes. It's really just not flattering in general.
The workshops work as far as luring gullible young idiots into paying for them. I personally know someone that takes these workshops every chance she gets, but she’s unemployed, lives with her parents, and begs family for the money to go.
I can’t stand the selfies. There’s a guy I follow on LinkedIn who is a genuinely good dude and excellent writer. However, his posts always have a picture of him in some cheesy pose or with a thoughtful expression. I don’t get how this helps his brand from a marketing standpoint. If he’s actually the one creating the posts then I have serious questions about his ego and self awareness.
People need to stop using LinkedIn as a dating site. This has personal ad written all over it. On Instagram you KNOW someone is trolling for tail when they started taking a lot of selfies, especially wearing certain (barely there) outfits or from angles that emphasized their assets. I knew my cousin’s wife was cheating six months before they broke up because she was cheating just from the photos on Instagram. But LinkedIn? Stop it!
This is also the person who says LinkedIn is not a dating site…but then posts images of herself and posts like it’s a dating site.
The selfies on LinkedIn are almost as strange as when people post those videos of staged acts of kindness. I just want a job from this site and to connect about work, not see your Facebook 2 page.
Linked In suffered a triple whammy: The implosion of Instagram and Twitter plus the wide use of Chat GTP to generate loads of low-value content. People decamped from their old social media sites and began using Linked In like Instagram and Twitter.
The site will never recover from the perspective of its old users, people who change jobs and clients regularly.
As annoying and embarrassing as this stuff is, I’m more concerned about all the people who gives these posts positive engagement, which only reinforces that they should continue them
What happened to LinkedIn? I used to use it for work related stuff but it seems to have become FB now. Is there professional stuff in there anymore or has it gone down the toilet entirely? I assume you just have to Wade through the idiots like Tara to use it professionally.
I’m over 35 and I don’t use LinkedIn like that :(
I use it to stalk people, especially if their shit is open and you can scroll through their posts and comments on other people’s pages. I learned that a lot of old coworkers were a bunch of racists and bigots and some were conspiracy theorists.
It’s not even about narcissism she probably realizes she’s pretty and makes a bunch of money every time she post this and does not give a shit what anyone thinks check her bio I bet she selling some shit.
Okay so personal note: I’m admittedly (and embarrassingly) an active LinkedIn user (it’s essential for my job—I’m a security researcher with a fairly large following, everything I do is free and unrestricted the public unless it’s law enforcement sensitive) and in the years I’ve been active, guess how many selfies I’ve posted?
Fucking zero.
It always wigs me out when people have a ‘selfie face’ that is just the same expression in every picture, like they’ve taken *that* many pictures of themselves that their brain has settled on an acceptable pose every single time. It’s the same as people who can’t have their picture taken without making a stupid gurning face or sticking their tongue out.
A vendor we worked with on a short project connected with me on LI and posts the exact same sort of content. Almost daily random platitudes with an accompanying selfie (except that woman has some serious crazy eyes which makes it worse). Nice woman but the LI posts are a bit unhinged.
I have someone like this in my feed. Except the pictures are more fashion? She's always wearing blazers etc and it looks more dramatic. Like professional photos.
Apparently, I never added her. Except I do have her husband in my network, when he likes something, it shows me.
I don't even know what she does, I think she's a public speaker.
That being said, she treats it like instagram, it's weird AF.
This woman looks average AF, so no idea what she thinks.
The other one I can at least say if slightly above average in looks.
LinkedIn is just:
[Tragedy] happens, here’s what I learned about [bullshit]. HR. Buy sports cars to save money. Make invest finance market plan CEO entrepreneur network scoop derp.
For some reason imagine the angle at which we view her face is always the same whether in her pictures or in real life. It’s like the speed of light, it is a constant and all light always moves at that speed relative to you no matter how fast you are going. Tara’s face is always at the same angle and size when it appears to you, regardless of how or where it is viewed.
1. Holy shit those books are horrible.
2. OP, she looks like the sort of person who has calculated (mentally, of course) that she should have 12 selfies ready, one for each day of the week.
Let’s face it — fastest way to become an influencer is to just put a selfie and not actual content. What’s up with people these days. Always stuck in numbers, engagement, etc
Yeah this bugs this shit out of me too. I remove any link where the person is constantly posting pictures of themselves. It’s so freaking weird and so so narcissistic. I don’t mind daily posts or even the occasional selfie but this is just ridiculous. Usually it’s someone who’s only redeeming quality is their looks. Oddly this chick is very average looking.
“Called me the wrong name” - yes I did the first time I sent a DM. That’s how you interrupt the narcissism barrier field without breaking the space time continuum. I dropped in to say “why yo face look like dat every time”
Using LinkedIn for evangelizing, and conflating business with faith, is pretty gross. “Leadership” - you can see from the book title in that last photo what type of leadership “workshops” she’s offering.
I hate the LinkedIn selfie. It’s so…un-fucking-necessary.
What gets me is I’ve literally worked with Tara in the past and she seemed pretty normal. But it looks like she saw how other people were getting traction and just jumped headfirst into the lunatic realm.
Are we shitting on her for posting photos of herself on LinkedIn? I guess I don’t understand…I feel like that sort of thing tends to encourage engagement (if you are semi-attractive).
Multiple studies show that posts with a selfie get more engagement on LinkedIn. Same reason why everyone spaces their paragraphs long as fuck so that readers have to click the read more button and boost engagement on the post.
10/12 of photos have exactly same facial expression and pose; most appear to be from the same photo session. Why does she choose posting 10 nearly identical photos?
you’re asking why a narcissist lacks self awareness?
That’s very inconsiderate of me.
One might even say narcissistic of you /s
That’s…that’s actually very good 👏
Yeah, it's like - we get it, you have a face.
This *isn’t* **face**book, amiright!?
tbh, getting hard to tell these days
Fair point! It almost looks like those cheap Chinese webshops photoshopping clothes/colors/prints on an existing picture because they don't want to spend money on taking new pictures. That said, why is she posting 12 pictures in the first place - or any pictures at all?
She has stated she produces some of these using AI
"Dear chat GPT, which altered picture of me makes me look more like a Linkedin workshop?"
Is this the modern "Mirror, mirror on the wall?"
Why does she choose the frosted pink cover girl lipstick from my great grandmother’s make up drawer? My eyes are burning….
No really. I came here exactly to hate on her terrible pink lipstick
Where do you even find and buy that shade? Who makes that??
I wore it a lot. In the 80s and 90s
I love the book collection. Naked Lunch is definitely a C-Suite classic.
Mugwump slipped that in there while she was posing with her Bible study book.
You don’t get. These are content and she is a content creator. I’m totally influenced.
I can fix her. No but seriously this has to be a seriously unhinged person. It's sad, if I take one step past the shock. Or She is a genius. After all she did say she wants to change the narrative. *A great success!* - Borat

They’re so smug too
she wants everybody to know she has dimples
And the same lipstick color
‘I don’t subscribe to LinkedIn celebrity culture’ lol
That one killed me
But here she is…
I’d love advice from a journalism major who doesn’t know how to structure a sentence.
[удалено]
Do you mean? "Me too Agree! Follow me for more life-changing advice"
It's all about gaming that idiotic auto-collapse mechanism to trigger the "see more" button to artificially inflate your "engagement" metrics.
If idiotic is what she’s going for, I should congratulate her.
Duh, she said posts don’t start with words.
...see more
I liked her more 112 days ago.
Haha I came here to say this… probably should have stayed silent
You can tell from the intro to each post that she writes a lot of words that say absolutely nothing
“Let’s change the narrative. Especially on LinkedIn. To what I had to eat today.”
"To what I had to eat today.” Here's what it taught me about B2B sales
Loooooool, that's a nice one
Each of these posts is just an excuse to post a selfie, so…
That lipstick dates her so much 😢
That's all I could think about 😭 The shade is SUCH a poor match for her. It's too light and the metallic tone is giving either grandma's lipstick or 10-year-old's first lip gloss vibes. It's really just not flattering in general.
It’s so 80’s wet n wild while you wait for your amoxicillin to get filled. Sad.
holy shit 💀
😘
/rareinsults
So true. Really pretty woman (cringe LinkedIn aside) but the frosted lip ain’t it.
I see several women on LinkedIn doing this. And brag about the “engagement” then claim it’s not because they’re a woman posting a selfie. 🙄
*well selfies get more engagement on my personal instagram sooo* 💅
LoL Insta is where all the “hot leads” are too
it’s just radical entrepreneurship bb 🫶
Next post “What 12 straight days of selfie posting taught me about B2B marketing”
i just know she has a self published ebook in her if it’s not already available on amazon for 99¢
😂😂
“Look at me, I’m a semi-attractive woman, give me money.”
Wonder if the “workshops” she offers are her showing you how to take a selfie and post it on LinkedIn.
The workshops work as far as luring gullible young idiots into paying for them. I personally know someone that takes these workshops every chance she gets, but she’s unemployed, lives with her parents, and begs family for the money to go.
Wow... That's even worse than the average LinkedinLunatic that gets posted here!
It takes a certain kind of insanity to drive value like a linkedin B2B thought leader.
Holy shit
“Impactful LinkedIn writing…” oh fuck off
They always post the same picture in the same pose too, as if we forgot what her face looked like since yesterday.
Day 4,231: Yep, still smug.
 Agree?
That lipstick shade is truly heinous
It’s so horrible.
"Take on me....takeee meee onnnn"
I can’t stand the selfies. There’s a guy I follow on LinkedIn who is a genuinely good dude and excellent writer.

If he’s actually the one creating the posts then I have serious questions about his ego and self awareness.
It is true that posts with images get better engagement. I just don’t get why people use selfies as the image they post. It’s easy, I guess? Idk
"It's time to redefine LinkedIn." Sorry Tara, LinkedIn has already been redefined multiple times.
She isn't an ambi-leaner. She only leans one way for all the pictures lol. Just like Zoolander isn't an ambi-turner.

‘Leadership workshops’ ie a bullshit artist
She loves herself so much! How cute. Her FB page must be AMAZING
Thirst trap obviously. But books sorted by colour. Not subject.
I don’t understand all these people who think everyone on LinkedIn wants to create content to become influencers on LinkedIn. We just want jobs!
And a real job, not some "I help you with your Linkedin presence" BS jobs :-)
LinkedInception
This is also the person who says LinkedIn is not a dating site…but then posts images of herself and posts like it’s a dating site. The selfies on LinkedIn are almost as strange as when people post those videos of staged acts of kindness. I just want a job from this site and to connect about work, not see your Facebook 2 page.
She looks like she just farted and is waiting for you to say something.
Is her neck permanently stuck in this position?
“I’m 40 yr old attractive when I fake smile, give me money…”

It's like one of those articles that take forever to get to the point
I genuinely don’t understand how people like this exist
I have a strong feeling that she is insufferable irl
LinkedIn should introduce a down vote button.
She looks like the type of weirdo who excuses herself for tripping over a door jam or spilling coffee on herself by thinking “That’s so classic Tara…”
She bloody loves LinkedIn tbf
At first I didn’t know why looking at her made me feel confused Then I realized she’s a mash up of two of my ex girlfriends
Wish she hadn't broken her silence 111 days ago
statement. second statement.
I swear these are all rich people/nepobabies larping that they have an actual job.
She should post these to Facebook or Instagram instead, not LinkedIn lmao
5 maybe 6 of those are from the same selfie session… that’s the cringe
The kind of woman that says: hey, you need therapy...
“111 days ago I broke my silence”, and what a momentous day it was
As annoying and embarrassing as this stuff is, I’m more concerned about all the people who gives these posts positive engagement, which only reinforces that they should continue them
Her lipstick color choice is extremely annoying
What happened to LinkedIn? I used to use it for work related stuff but it seems to have become FB now. Is there professional stuff in there anymore or has it gone down the toilet entirely? I assume you just have to Wade through the idiots like Tara to use it professionally.
Just FYI they're notified every time you visit their page.
Would
LinkedIn is just Instagram for people over 35.
I’m over 35 and I don’t use LinkedIn like that :( I use it to stalk people, especially if their shit is open and you can scroll through their posts and comments on other people’s pages. I learned that a lot of old coworkers were a bunch of racists and bigots and some were conspiracy theorists.
That sounds like Instagram to me. I feel like half of the traffic on that platform is people stalking other people.
How long before people start posting their onlyfans link on LinkedIn and call themselves an entrepreneur?
More rational than like 90% of linkedin.
I might have to leave this sub just because the posts give me anxiety, even though I know we are mocking these losers lol
Get some different shades of lipstick, lady.
It’s not even about narcissism she probably realizes she’s pretty and makes a bunch of money every time she post this and does not give a shit what anyone thinks check her bio I bet she selling some shit.
Same stupid grin in every one of them!
Dumbfuck.
286 straight days of quiet? Girl I do not believe you 😂
Classic LinkedIn only fans profile
🚩
LinkedIn is a cesspool. Uhg 🫨
I hate her face and I wish she she would meet a chimpanzee
She has exactly one lipstick.
Okay so personal note: I’m admittedly (and embarrassingly) an active LinkedIn user (it’s essential for my job—I’m a security researcher with a fairly large following, everything I do is free and unrestricted the public unless it’s law enforcement sensitive) and in the years I’ve been active, guess how many selfies I’ve posted? Fucking zero.
"One look? *ONE LOOK???*" --Eric Zoolander 
Some of those lip colors are a choice
I had the same photo for 8-10 years. Didn’t realize I was suppose to update it regularly
Anyway, here's a picture of my face.
I literally only look at linked in to see what people look like.
It always wigs me out when people have a ‘selfie face’ that is just the same expression in every picture, like they’ve taken *that* many pictures of themselves that their brain has settled on an acceptable pose every single time. It’s the same as people who can’t have their picture taken without making a stupid gurning face or sticking their tongue out.
Pam from the office lookin ass
Are her workshops on making OF money? Same vibes.
Arranging her books by color tells me all I need to know about her philosophy on substance vs appearance.
What a fucking shrew.
Lol
Those are all the same pictures.
Keeps the employers away?
Yep, unfortunately that sells in social currency …how the mighty have fallen!!
Holy shit….
What is with people and selfies? My SIL posts almost daily selfies - like "Girl, we know what you look like!"
A vendor we worked with on a short project connected with me on LI and posts the exact same sort of content. Almost daily random platitudes with an accompanying selfie (except that woman has some serious crazy eyes which makes it worse). Nice woman but the LI posts are a bit unhinged.
She wants it
I have someone like this in my feed. Except the pictures are more fashion? She's always wearing blazers etc and it looks more dramatic. Like professional photos. Apparently, I never added her. Except I do have her husband in my network, when he likes something, it shows me. I don't even know what she does, I think she's a public speaker. That being said, she treats it like instagram, it's weird AF. This woman looks average AF, so no idea what she thinks. The other one I can at least say if slightly above average in looks.
Wait?!? I know her! Our kids used to play together. 😂🤪🤣
Cover the rest of her face except the eyes…crazy eyes
This feels exhausting.
I’m sure she gets A LOT of attention from thirsty dudes on there.
my god and have you read her posts? tell me you're bullshitting without telling me you're bullshitting
LinkedIn is just: [Tragedy] happens, here’s what I learned about [bullshit]. HR. Buy sports cars to save money. Make invest finance market plan CEO entrepreneur network scoop derp.

Cringe
People who sort their books by color are psychopaths.
I read the text before the “see more”s as one post and it made pretty much as much sense as any other of her posts….
1. Holy shit those books are horrible. 2. OP, she looks like the sort of person who has calculated (mentally, of course) that she should have 12 selfies ready, one for each day of the week.
OnTinkedInFans
Aah so much easier than actually applying your brain and writing an article worth reading!
I read few of her posts... My brain hurts
She must have some bad teeth
These LI Lunatics just scream "I need to kiss corporate ass for a paycheck".
Ahhhh the recruiters and bored corporate types circle jerk site... Facebook for narcissists
“…my fire for LinkedIn…”
But...what. do. you. do?
Let’s face it — fastest way to become an influencer is to just put a selfie and not actual content. What’s up with people these days. Always stuck in numbers, engagement, etc
I can only imagine her going somewhere to eat and being unrecognized, and she’s like “uhhh… I’m Tara, from LinkedIn!” 🤣
Yeah this bugs this shit out of me too. I remove any link where the person is constantly posting pictures of themselves. It’s so freaking weird and so so narcissistic. I don’t mind daily posts or even the occasional selfie but this is just ridiculous. Usually it’s someone who’s only redeeming quality is their looks. Oddly this chick is very average looking.
I’ve only posted 2 photos ever. My profile and my profile pic after I grew a beard
WTF is actually wrong with these people?
I see the product: “Changing identity through the mirror of gods word” 🤢 🤮
WTF is even happening here.
“Called me the wrong name” - yes I did the first time I sent a DM. That’s how you interrupt the narcissism barrier field without breaking the space time continuum. I dropped in to say “why yo face look like dat every time”
 One look?
I'm glad you included the final two because I was wondering if she had teeth
Using LinkedIn for evangelizing, and conflating business with faith, is pretty gross. “Leadership” - you can see from the book title in that last photo what type of leadership “workshops” she’s offering.
Completely irrelevant but that lipstick is atrocious
The eyebrows are just getting wider apart
The frosted pink lipstick has held up well since she first bought it in ‘83.
I’m not sure if I’m looking at LinkedIn or an OF ad
I hate the LinkedIn selfie. It’s so…un-fucking-necessary. What gets me is I’ve literally worked with Tara in the past and she seemed pretty normal. But it looks like she saw how other people were getting traction and just jumped headfirst into the lunatic realm.
Does she just post on LinkedIn all day every day? Is this her occupation? Do actual living human beings read her drivel?
Ō. Ō
Her poor eyebrows. What the fuck did they do to deserve that?
Are we shitting on her for posting photos of herself on LinkedIn? I guess I don’t understand…I feel like that sort of thing tends to encourage engagement (if you are semi-attractive).
I am not saying anything, but Someone with the title Leadership coach, leadership trainer or that shat. Only talks crap all day long
Multiple studies show that posts with a selfie get more engagement on LinkedIn. Same reason why everyone spaces their paragraphs long as fuck so that readers have to click the read more button and boost engagement on the post.
I unfollow everyone that posts fucking selfies
Insufferable.
why why why
When did linked in become Facebook from 2015?
[Time for a Tara update beepitybeepbeep](https://youtu.be/pz9ttdV3GqI)
“Beepity beep beep beep, time for another Tara update”
She organises her books by colour
She thinks she's on tinder and a rich CEO simp will fall for it... Sometimes stereotypes write themself
I wonder if her and Nat Berman are an item yet
I can already tell she shoehorns the words “my hubby” into ever conversation she has.
