I was one of the guests on Fansplaining’s 8th Anniversary Podcast Episode!
Here’s a quote from my segment:
One of the things that I’ve noticed that has both affected me as an individual and fandom at large is that fans are actively entering the fight against racism in fandom on the side of racism. They’re actively choosing to defend racists, defend racist tropes, to support people who are doing racist behaviors, and it is out of this sense that they need to protect their space and their energy.

I’m running a GoFundMe to try and help my sister and the niecelings get a little more financial stability as the apartment they’re in now is tiny and rundown. I just updated the GFM to let people know that while we’re off to a great start, we’re on a tighter deadline because the apartment complex’s new leasing company is raising the rent to almost $2000 a month so we don’t even have the cushion of the rent amount they were used to.
If you can share, donate, cajole any random celebs you know to donate… please do so?
Because I’d do it in a heartbeat, but my own apartment is currently trying to kill me so like… I’m not able to help my family the way I wish I could.
You can find the GFM HERE.
I’ve got a monthly newsletter that’s pay-to-read! It’s for NSFW/R18 content I’m reading, writing, or watching and while I will be posting the wildly out of pocket content I’ve been reading – I’m serious about how important FAKKU has become to me – there will always be clear warnings!
I’m working on the second installment to go live on the first of September but you can read the first one here!
And I’m actively looking for a career change! If you know anyone hiring for something I can do but that’s not pop culture or fandom journalism, please hit me up. I really want a career change and to not be beholden to the internet’s trends. If I’m gonna get shouted at all the time, I want it to be for stuff that people agree matters and for an actual living wage.
Thanks!
