Buffistas

You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

If anyone wants to kill an entertaining couple of hours, check out Lindsey Ellis' two most recent Youtube videos, about a complete nutjob het A/B/O author (yes they exist) who is litigation-mad but also does not understand copyright law at all. I'm now at the point where the author is claiming that the OTW and EFF (and Courtney Milan?) are behind Ellis' videos, and it's all one big conspiracy to monetize the fact that this woman does not know how plagiarism or copyright infringement works.

Fascinating stuff, and Ellis is monetizing the shit out of it.

This is enough to make me long for the days of Fandom_Wank.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Ooh, there's a new video? *runs off to watch*

Is this nutjob author Faleena Hopkins using a pseudonym?

Ok, Lindsey Ellis's omegaverse lawsuit vids were exactly how I needed to start my weekend.

I am getting a "fanfiction deep state" pin.

I just don't think this woman knows what she's getting into, taking on Lindsey Ellis, Courtney Milan, the OTW, and EFF all at once. Pick your battles, honey!

Also, the timing seems to imply that her ethics complaint against Milan was part of the whole thing that happened with the RWA last winter...

Did someone mention battles? This should keep me from refreshing the state ballot count page for a while!
