why you should watch lindsay ellis’s “into the omegaverse: how a fanfic trope landed in federal court”:
- she has to explain a/b/o to her audience
- she managed to get TWELVE other youtubers to voice act for reenactments, including hbomberguy, jenny nicholson, todd in the shadows, sarah z, princess weekes, and an entire legality segment with legaleagle
- every time she has to explain knotting she just blows up a balloon that, unfortunately, has sonic the hedgehog on it,
- she says the word “superwholock” about four and a half minutes in
- absolutely insane amounts of legal fights over het a/b/o including perjury
- within the first 24 hours after upload lindsay was already sued for it
I watched this video and now am a worse person because of it.
I highly suggest that you watch it too
- the author of the offending book is attacking lindsay and it’s a war now
- she tried to dmca takedown lindsay’s video
- youtube got the takedown notice and actually said no
- patreon offered to pay lindsay’s legal fees should anything happen
- jenny nicholson reprises her oscar-worthy role as the villain
- “I FEEL LINSAY ELLIS IS A MENACE, A THREAT TO MY CHILD, AND IS MONETIZING DEFAMATION FOR PERSONAL FINANCIAL GAIN”
- a shitton of other authors get dragged into this
- AO3 GETS DRAGGED INTO THIS
- lindsay is called a “patreon personality”
- she awoos
- lindsay wears a wolf hat for almost all of the video
- which just reminds you that this is all about wolf erotica
