Why don't FMST folks write about shame? Uncomfortable Television comes close, but there's this goldmine of 2000-2010s queer theory on shame and we keep talking about fandom in exclusively positive terms (bad apples, etc.). Sometimes loving TV is sucky & destabilizing & I want to talk about that too!

He and Jennifer Lopez seem to have garnered the most butt shot criticism so far!

Clothed, closed... what is criticism without a little word play?

I was "yup... yup... yup"-ing my way through that whole article. Especially the part about women's productivity being less likely to be rewarded 😒

I have a panel for CP, so maybe another conference that looks good to you both? Could be SCMS 2026, but hopefully we spot something before then!
