Bada Bingstream - Sopranos Season 1

Here is the private link for the stream, will go live at 6 (...ish) PT, but feel free to hang out in the mean time 🦆https://youtu.be/9046Y38Zvoc

Bada Bingstream schedule update

The first Sopranos club stream will (probably) be held this Thursday at 6 PT/9ET, and will publish the link an hour beforehand here on Patreon. I will be joined this week by Sopranos first timer (I was surprised too) Dan Olson aka Foldable Human, and probably some other Sopranos superfans. See you t...

Introducing: Bada Bingstream - Sopranos TV club

One piece of media I've never really touched on (besides a passing mention in one of the Game of Thrones episodes) is the Sopranos, in part because I didn't have much thesis-wise to say about it but mostly because there are approximately 45,000 video essays on YouTube with some variation on ...

What I've been working on for the last year or so

Greetings from 7:00 AM-ish this morning, another day always tired #nofilter.So I got scooped by NBC news, not that they ran the story sooner than they said they would, and I did give my blessing to mention the baby, but I no longer have a concept of "time." That said they DID have the worst ...

Ma- June (???) update

Time flies with the world is on fire I guess? I know I keep frustratingly alluding to "health issues", and I really did intend to start producing regular-ish content in May, but obviously that did not happen. Without getting into details I did have a major surgery in May that was... maybe no...

May updates

Hey guys,As a few of you have surmised I’ve spent the last couple months dealing with stuff that has nothing to do with the Internet or career, for better or worse. I will say this – being out of the public eye has honestly been a pretty good call. I do keep an eye on things, and just looking at...

Ancient Pre-YouTube content

We've decided to add my ancient #problematic content as a Patreon perk in one place since there were so many unauthorized reuploads on YT we’ve been having to remove. They’re bad and you shouldn’t watch them, but they are available to all $2+ patrons for the time being.2008Pocahontas: http...

failed update

I keep trying to write an update that will give some illusion that I have some kind of a path forward in mind, but every time I start it just all comes out rage and bile. I’m just so fucking angry I can’t function, let alone make coherent business decisions.In some ways I regret the tone of the ...

Walking away from Omelas

This was going to be a YouTube video, but I just don’t have it in me to invite that kind of scrutiny, to be the last in the sick, sad line of YouTubers who get all weepy on camera and cry about how they just can’t do this anymore, boo hoo hoo. I had planned to move video content to Nebula, but I...

Love Never Dies: Magnificent Trash

It's time.

Discontinuing the $10/#passion/name-in-credits tier

Hey guys,At the end of October we will be discontinuing the $10 tier, meaning this upcoming video (slated for release a week from today) will be the last one to feature names of Patrons in the credits of the video. Going forward patrons can still give as much or as little as they want, but there wil...

Patron credits announcement

Hi all! This is Elisa, Lindsay's assistant. I'm the one who moderates all the YouTube comments, screens all her emails and the DMs you send her, and also the one who does the Patreon credits that appear at the end of her videos, amongst many other things.If you want your name to appear in th...

"breaking my silence"

So you may notice this does not have Patreon credits, and when you get to the end of it I think you’ll see why. While some people will be glad I went this way, I know this will make some people very upset and they would’t want their name on it. Anyone who was a member at the $10 level starting i...

Soooo the Twitter thing

I'm posting this here because I feel like if I owe anyone an explanation it's you guys, so with regard to the Twitter thing - needless to say there is a lot of projection and assumption of why I did decide to delete it, but at the end of the day I took this whole debacle as a sign that I rea...

Tracing the Roots of Pop Culture Transphobia

There's a lot of anger in this one lol

Borat in 2020

This is delayed because it's the rare sponsored video, and I'm still negotiating with Audible, so here is the Audible-free version, a Patreon exclusive for... however long it takes Audible to give me the go-ahead. Very nice.Also I know that in the UK he's called "Baron Cohen" ins...

Who wants me to kill them (in a book)??? [CONTEST]

So I’ve come up on the writer problem of needing names for very minor characters, most of whom die, and I’m running out of film school colleagues to name them after. So, it made sense to bring it to Patreon! Do you wanna die in Truth of the Divine? Well now is your chance!Because Patreon‘s ter...

Welp, I'm out of Patreon jail

So as some of you may have noticed, the post on the Omegaverse video links not to the correct video but to a Bane fanvid (for a couple weeks anyway). Well, SOMEONE sent a DMCA takedown to Patreon, and for reasons discussed in the Omegaverse video, Patreon had to honor the damn thing or they were leg...
