Jeremy's Patreon Pontification: The Pitfalls of Fandom
Added 2024-04-16 04:17:32 +0000 UTCJeremy sits down to muse about fandom. What are some of its positives? What are some of its negatives? What might be a healthier way for some folks to approach fandom? All this and more in this laid back, non-comprehensive pontification!
CW: Mentions of racism, misogyny, transphobia, and The Last Jedi
Here's the video I mentioned talking about the extent of JK Rowling's descent into transphobic obsession: J.K. Rowling’s Spiral into Madness (with ContraPoints)
Also, I forgot to acknowledge it during the recording, but Esther Vergeer is actually the most dominant tennis player (and possibly sportsperson) in history, with nearly 500 consecutive match wins over a 10-year span. Federer is at best a distant second.

Yoooo fuck terfs! Also the third book was my fav and I was furious about the third movie up until I became more furious with JK. Lupin and Siris were my favorite, and I felt like they didn’t do them right. I will never forgive the naked chihuahua werewolf. They ruined my booooy. (Also have not seen it in many years since I don’t engage with her shit anymore- very rough split as a trans hp fan). (I enjoyed community but the transphobia and homophobia in that show is pretty fucking rough. Never been able to reconcile that with how good it is in other ways.)
