[fandom] I'm petty about Aja Romano, I know I am

but them whining on Twitter about other fans not liking them because those fans are "viciously contemptuous that I got to have this career while openly claiming my fandom ID"

is seriously eye-rolling

no, people it's not because you openly connect your fannish and professional identities

it's because you're a shitty fucking journalist and people hate that you've designated yourself "Official Fandom Spokesperson"

is this Aja Aja

as in Harry Potter, Cassie Clare Aja

yes, Cassie Clare Aja

Inner Circle Aja

they managed to get a journalism job about fandom, I think originally at the site Dialy Dot

Daily

and they keep showing up with bad takes, but in article form

I am so petty about Aja too, god

Every time I see their byline I'm like, "aw hell not again".

god

i remember following cassie clare drama when i was in middle school

oh yeah, I was in middle/early high school when all that went down

it was nuts
