Being an obsessive fangirl is not cute, and I didn’t learn that until I stopped being one.
Swarm freaked me out because, while I did not want to hurt someone for disliking my favorites, I understood stan culture and why people turn to it. -
My brand turns two today. Here’s the truth about owning a small business.
Wow, it’s been two years already? Entrepreneurship is something that has always interested me since I was a little girl, and I am thankful to be able to pursue it as a career path. Regarding the subject of work, I think we need more honesty! I strongly advocate letting people know what they are getting into. Here are a few things I have learned since my brand became official. -
Lila Rossi: A case where the obsessive fangirl goes too far.
I have developed a theory that Lila may have followed Adrien before the timeline we see within the series. Adrien is famous worldwide; while some people have no idea who he is (like the main character of the series didn't know he existed until he was in her class), overall, he can not go anywhere without being recognized by someone. When we first meet Lila in the series, she’s talking to Adrien. When I realized that Lila’s character wouldn’t exist if it were not for Adrien, I started to take note of all the odd things Lila did in relation to him.

Getting invested in celebrity drama is a waste of time.
Toward the end of 2022, I fell down the Blueface and Chrisean rabbit hole, an abusive relationship that people look at for entertainment. This relationship was a big distraction for me when I was making my Disneycember series when I realized I needed to cut back on being on social media a lot. I find it kind of applauding that many are pointing and laughing at this, as this isn’t fiction. These are real people. -
Twenty-two things I learned in 2022.
Happy new year, everyone! Can I even still say that? Well, we are only 19 out of 365 days, so yes, yes, I can. People often do their number countdowns at the end of the year, but it would be nice to share mine at the beginning of the year. Here are 22 things I learned in 2022 that I have taken into 2023. -
I'm sorry, but I can't find myself to like Emilie Agreste.
Yes, it is sad when white women go missing and turn up dead; I'm not saying it isn’t. But Miraculous Ladybug has conditioned the audience to feel bad for her, and when someone mentions something off, discourse arises because Emilie is what society sees as the perfect woman. -
I kinda feel bad for Doug Walker, and I don’t like it.
There would be no Harriyanna Hook’s Disneycember if it weren’t for Doug Walker’s Disneycemeber. It hurts because I no longer think highly of the person I got the inspiration from to do this, and it’s my fault, to begin with. -
Why did SpongeBob and Patrick's death hurt so much?
I felt like I knew Spongebob and Patrick. I saw them every day. They kept me company if I was the only person in the living room, and they were never mean to me. Two characters I adore dying was the last thing I wanted. -
The business girl aesthetic is super fake.
What is the business girl aesthetic, you say? Before 2015 this aesthetic only really applied to women and girls who were well-known YouTubers, singers, rappers, or actors with consistent work. These women post photos of themselves on Instagram wearing designer clothing, eating at five-star restaurants, and wearing bikinis on vacation.
Many women in this field do not care about the hard work, dedication, and time it takes to be your boss and freelance. Plenty simply want to do this because social media has sold them the idea that if they start a business selling the same things as everyone else, they will achieve wealth and can buy whatever they please. Suppose you see these things take up plenty of space on one’s Instagram feed, who are relatively young most of the time. In that case, they work in entertainment, have a youtube channel with a large following, or sell products and services to numerous people.

The Miraculous World Specials Are A Problem and Here's Why.
So many of this show’s problems with diversity stem from the fact that it’s only white people in the writers' room; at one point, it was just white men. I was unhappy when I discovered Miraculous was planning to do more specials in different places.
If the Miraculous team refuses to make changes with their franchise, adding writers of color and not having Gabriel go to countries full of non-white people to bully them, they can keep these specials in the drafts.

The Sesame Street incident is proof that racism can pop up anywhere.
Something as fun and wholesome as Sesame Street has now been tainted with racism. Disappointed but not surprised. Why am I not surprised? Because racism sneaks up anywhere. -
Perfect Blue taught me how to leave people alone.
Because we live in a day and age where anyone can be known to strangers, the events in Perfect Blue can happen to anyone, and that’s what makes this film more horrifying now than it was when it was released in the nineties.
