Help Hagan
Yeah, I know, this blog has pretty much gone dark. I am sure you understand - With all the link-hiding and deletions going on around here and tumblr usership dropping by over a third, it seldom seems worth to bother. But right now, a bigger bother has broken the dam.
Youtube, in their infinite wisdom and shitness have demonetized Diamanda’s entire channel. That’s right, she’s not seeing a cent of ad rev for any and all of her work, and she doesn’t even get the option to appeal. Why, you ask? According to the official letter she got, the answer to that is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Fun times, huh?
Obviously, this tears a pretty fucking substantial hole in Hagan/Omega household budget. This sort of situation is what experts formally call fucked up.
Now, what can we do about that? I know that money is tight for a lot of us - Believe me, I know, but if you are lucky enough to have a bit of spare spending money, Diamanda’s Patreon would not be a bad place to spend it. And it’s not like you are not getting anything in return - there’s early access at the lowest level (only two bucks!), and various rewards including a spot in the credits and even the ability to force her to review a film or even an entire TV show higher up. And there are rumors of a special physical reward you can hold in your hands coming up soon, too...
Oh, and speaking of physical stuff, there’s always the Hagan Merch store on Redbubble, where you can get high-quality stickers, t-shirts, posters, phone cases, mugs and more outfitted with a whole bunch of Hagan-related designs. Get yourself or a fellow fan something nice. Everybody wins!
And if you don’t have any money to spare right now? You can still help! Reblog this post, subscribe to her channel if you haven’t already, or tell some friends (or fans of fine comedy) about the glory of the divine god-empress Diamanda Hagan. The more people are watching, the more people will be recommended her stuff, and the more may end up helping out.
We got this. You got this.
