Moving
When I started the Substack — officially late 2020, but I started writing, what, early 2021? — I already knew about Substack platforming transphobes then (I believe it was something about them funding? At the time? But I can’t find it now, and maybe I have it wrong) and decided I simply would have my posts for free. I liked having a place where I could potentially “go viral” or be one of The Girls, you know, your Rayne Fisher-Quanns of the world. As you reading this and I writing this both know, that hasn’t happened.
But as it turned out, Substack doesn’t want to demonetize Nazis. This is perfectly in line with their previous behavior, but it’s the idea that moderating them is worse than not moderating that pisses me off. Like, please stop lying. You want cash. You don’t believe the things you say you do.
Anyway! This means I’m moving to Wordpress. The Year in Review posts and future One Piece posts will be now at this website:

If you’ve already subscribed to this newsletter, you don’t have to do anything — I already imported you! If you haven’t subscribed to the newsletter and you just check back whenever you like it — please visit the Wordpress blog from now on! The posts have all moved and they have some ugly Substack import elements to it. Oh well.
I’ll see you all on the other side.
