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.

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.
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!

Parker, did you ever read the massive fic Fay wrote as a present for me? It's bandom (therefore RPF), but you don't need to know who any of the real people are, because (IMO) it would work as a non-fandom urban fantasy story. It's just *funnier* if you know who the musicians are. [link]
If you want, there's also an adorably cracky wish!baby fic in Hannibal that I don't think would distract you down the path of thinking about the recipes. [link]

Fic recs that don't really require canon knowledge! Maybe just the basic premise for some of them!

Atropa, I had read our Fay's present to you, but it's been long enough that it would almost be new! The other, I will try, since you say I will not wander down "But where did he get the - no, brain, stop it!" paths.
Thank you, Dana - I have not read Monstress yet, but everything else I can get by on.
Have I thanked you all for calling me 'Parker'? People in my Zoom meetings/passing in the garage don't, and I hadn't realized how much I think of that name as me.

For that bonkers crossover, I only know Young Wizards, the Paul Simon song, and a bit about the cats. It still works.
Happy to provide fandom-specific recs too.
