Any help would be appreciated! 🤍

Why am I doing this? Read part of my story below!

Donate 🔗 gofund.me/de8c355ea

A screenshot of a GoFundMe page which reads:

Why am I doing this? Well, 2025 didn't go as planned. Between a family emergency (that required hospitalization) and a slew of health problems (blood pressure, anxiety, no hearing in my right ear), doctor visits, and new medications, I've come to a crossroads. I've been writing and reporting for 14 years, and it appears it's time for a new direction. It's weird because I've never done anything else...

Anyway, I plan to finish out the year and decide what's next over the holidays. This fundraiser is to help for the next two months.

Yours cruelly,

Bee

tbh dustin is another example of being deceived by perceived decency, but also a warning to not always trust said perceived decency. being down with or even pretending to be down with a marginalized community doesn't always mean anything

Kayfabe retired can become IRL retired. He can wait out that contract at home and I’m sure the maga company will give him a legends contract eventually.

Is he the only maga dude in that place? Of course not, but he IS one of the only ones out in public gloating about how great the naked fascism is so ya know. Fuck That Guy.

read collision spoilers recently and it's really awful that yet another wrestler many folks enjoy is injured + will be gone for an undetermined amount of time. i know this shit happens, i'm aware of the reality of pro wres, but it's still a bummer like goddamn

i'm a critic for peliplat, who writes mostly about horror media, & it's a very welcoming/inclusive space for folks. so, if you've found yourself intrigued then maybe it's time to kick off your peliplat journey
