You Better Hold On Tight Spider-Monkey, Twilight video incoming

We have crossed 1,500 Patrons! Which means we have made our first goal: 1,500 Members - The Women of Twilight: A breakdown of the female characters in Twilight and what they say about feminity.

Time for me to dust off my kindle PDF files and get to highlighting. 

Thank you all for this support! And I will plan to hopefully get this done by the end of the Summer<3. Since it is technically a book retrospective it also works within the strike too! Huzzah.

Menéndez Brothers & When the Narrative Shifts

TW: CSA, Gun Violence, Parental Abuse, SNL Having Bad Takes

In the 90s, several televised trials/cases became part of the public imagination and heavily impacted how modern true crime looks. OJ Simpson, Tonya Harding, Lorena Bobett, and the Menéndez Brothers. All of these have been examined and re-examined in the past decade. Most recently, the Menéndez Brothers who were mocked for their claims of childhood abuse. 

In 1996, brothers Lyle and Erik Menen...

Thank You (ft Lola)

I wanted to take the time to say thank you to all the new Patrons. This has been so profoundly humbling and overwhelming in the best ways. We are also so close to that first Twilight goal, so that will be a fun ride (lol). But in all seriousness, I feel so thankful for this help. We are all struggling, so I appreciate being seen as someone worth spending money on. 

I even had so...

Re: The Strike & Content Creation

Hey all. Since the SGA has joined the WGA in striking there has been a lot of conflicting new and information about what is or is not going to be crossing the picket line. Yes, I have read all the FAQs, but personally, none of the wording makes me feel confident. That coupled with the misinformation being spread online and it has become a massive problem. So, I'm making the decision to table the two videos I was working on for this month that are pop culture centric. One was going to be about...

July Events Masterpost

Hello folks. I am taking a bit of this month to work on finishing up my book proposal. I have been putting this off for awhile, because of financial reasons, but I realize that if I’m ever going to finish it, I need to spend time on it (what a concept).
