Ex-Tumblr Girls

WELCOME BACK FROM THE GRAVEEEE (a couple months off)!! We return to the ex-tumblr girl community to talk zombies - the most iconic moments in the zombie genre, what they represent (baseless claim style), and most importantly: The Last of Us. And what would spooky season be without a mention of Scooby Doo Zombie Island?

Happy Friday the 13th! Today we bring you two archetypal ghost stories: the long-martyred (until she's hated) dead white girl and the present-in -their-absence ghost who haunts the narrative. We dig into what a ghost story represents, what separates a ghost from being in the narrative and haunting it for good, and how true crime turns real people's lives into storyboards trying to emulate Twin Peaks. This one is definitely for the Yellowjackets fans out there, and the kids who watched Monster House too many times in middle school. Love ya!

Do YOU remember the Summer of 2020? It was a time when a tax-evading raccoon put us all in bell debt just to have friends who were proud of us and a reason to wake up (turnips). This fanthropology, Carly dives into Animal Crossing's most prolific lore and characters, while Tori rehashes the time a digital cat in glasses became a contentious trading chip. But remember: Stardew Valley did cozy gaming first. We also discuss some of our Summer reading - send us yours!!

In the next iteration of fanthropology, we bring it back to a high school obsession: Skam Norway. Tori rehashes four seasons of European high school drama that for ONCE is dealt with empathetically and with nuance! We discuss the fandom's favorite ships, Tori's least favorite character of All Time, and the iconic moment of watching daily uploads through Google Drive. And while we didn't share our favorite fan edits in full... the day will come.

This week in our never-ending string of fanfic discourse, we're getting into sentence-level atrocities committed on tumblr dot com. Comma splices, pet names, paragraph breaks and our very first bleeped mentions for similes that should NEVER be used. It's just hater hour. What else could you ask for!

In this essentially nothing but tangents episode, we list off all the things we think we could do but have little to no evidence or proof. Could Tori do a blood transfusion? Could Carly run for president? Because, btw, we find out mid-ep B*den will not. We embrace the delusions and positivity on a Small Joys Sunday! Other topics include the NYT 100 best books list, groceries (always) and The Last of Us (also always). Love ya!

TERFS DNI! DUH! Because this week we're finally getting into terfs, how to spot them, why we hate them, how they've ruined tumblr and tumblr's own role in treating trans people horribly. Terf-blocker extraordinaire Carly unpacks what talking points trans-exclusionary, self-titled "radfems" use to defend their transphobia. Together, we look at what this means for the state of feminism and how "the gayest place on the internet" is complicit thanks to the insane transphobic CEO. AS ALWAYS: this podcast is exclusively for entertainment purposes and all opinions are host belief not intended to be taken as fact!~ (That ones for the blue website's legal team <3)

Even though everything in our lives comes back to tumblr, even more of it comes back to New Jersey. As it's fandom leaders, we talk about our favorite NJ lore (the shore, the smelly part of the turnpike, the drive to each others houses) and media that takes place there. Forget jersey shore, the diner state is better represented by the teen yellowjackets and tony soprano <3

On this episode of fanthropology, we are the study subjects as survivors of bachelor nation. We unpack just a few of the craziest dramas we witnessed over roughly 10 seasons of bachelors, bachelorettes and paradise. Between religious guilt, meddling producers, cheating and (who's surprised) racism, this show has everything wrong with it possible. But it was fun while it lasted ?

We're bringing it back to fanfic again to talk about alternate universes - ones where you're born with a soulmate mark (boooo), ones with wolf pack dynamics (idgi) and the ones we actually like. Since we took a break getting sick with capitalism, there's a lot to catch up on: being musical lovers and haters at the same time, reading, watching, and rehashing teen wolf villains. Email us your favorite fics, least favorite AUs and whatever else crosses your mind at [email protected]!
