I think that was actually an ancient Greek belief, which is why we still associate love with the heart in poetic language, even though its just a pump to move blood around the body. The ancient Greeks had a valid excuse for being retards though, they lived thousands of years ago. Stupidity is forgivable, wilful ignorance is not.
None that is available to the general public, no. Based on the dates in article URLs on the front page and in the "fem 101", "privilege", etc. tags at the top of the front page things were slowing down by 2014 and dead by late 2018. Since then, the only proof of life since then is the copyright statement reading "2020". That we got nothing about Covid stuff tells me they were all gone by 2020 April; this is exactly the kind of site that would have discussed masks, vaccines, and lockdowns ad infinitum.
The thousand-dollar question I can't answer is whether their "online school", which sells pre-recorded diversity/SocJus training starting at $45/person/session, is making new content or even operating anymore: The "school" does not include testimonials or news coverage of recent training sessions and the URLs do not include dates so it could be thriving, it might be dead, we just don't know. I can't prove it but I suspect the site's just plain dead because if those trainings were at all popular a site like Breitbart would probably have noticed and bought one so they could mock it to death.
Here is a sample promo for one of their classes, I suspect it is older because "White" is capitalized but can't prove it.

There was some funding thing that Obama passed that passed out taxpayers money like a fountain to any number of these "progressive" "news sites" for a long time. I think I remember hearing about the program going defunct, but I don't remember when. I know a fuckton of various blogs that had been retweeted by ALL the media went broke shortly thereafter.

I've been feeling nostalgic and wondered whatever happened to the gang from Everyday Feminism.
Well, Melissa Fabello got dumped in 2025, chonked up, and moved back home:

This was, of course, a fraught choice due to the horrors of late-stage capitalism, but it's also a powerful choice, bc lots of adults live with their parents, all around the world!
I do, however, have another subject in mind (for now):
Samantha Lynn Ehlert / Sam Dylan Finch
While perhaps most infamous for platforming Justin Dennis / Riley J. Dennis (thread link) and kicking off the “genital preferences” debate, online “magazine” Everyday Feminism (site link) introduced several other, lesser lolcows.
Sam Dylan Finch, for instance.
So how's 2025-2026 Sam doing?
Oh dear.
Hot take: Amanda Baggs (thread link) survived COVID-19!
Still, if you have the spoons, please join us in a powerful celebration of holding space for the waistline gender expansive:
Sam comes to the attention of Kiwi Farms during Everyday Feminism’s waning days (see post for beginning of discussion).
Though the magazine had already cut back on its output, Trump’s election in 2016 coincides with a sharp decline in revenue, leading to fundraisers and membership offers to keep it solvent:

(NB: Marina Watanabe thread link)
In July 2017, Everyday Feminism publishes an essay in which Sam discusses being “triggered” by the Disney film The Hunchback of Notre Dame:
5 Ways to Lovingly Support Someone With C-PTSD 19 July 2017
(link | archive – from Everyday Feminism)
And is then soothed by her then-partner, via marathon of the Cartoon Network program Steven Universe.
For what it’s worth, this is the last new Sam article (rather than a re-upload) posted to the platform.
Sam does not appreciate the thread’s attention and tweets occasionally about the Farms:
I considered a thread for Sam, but she’s never been consistently interesting, so I’m parking my file here.
With that in mind, if there's enough interest (ha ha), I'll happily throw something over in Prospering Grounds!
Whenever possible, I rely on source materials.
Having said that, over the years Sam has deleted a lot of material due to call outs/ins (particularly on Twitter) or revised material to reflect her current point of view (particularly on her blog).
There will be times I rely (sparingly) on my lived experience.
Whenever I do so, I shall note it.
Please join me on a journey towards validation, radical self-acceptance, and a queering of all the big and little things in the life of a self-described “magic 8 ball of gender”!
8 Things Non-Binary People Need To Know

Next time, we'll dive into Sam's childhood, which she's revised over the years, particularly following her informal C-PTSD diagnosis.
In the meantime, here is a first round of resources I've pulled together. It will be revised as more stuff comes up:
ADHD
Agoraphobia
Alcohol substance abuse disorder
Anemia
Anorexia nervosa
Anxiety
Asexuality
Auditory hallucinations
Autism (co-occurrence with ADHD à AuHD)
Bipolar Disorder Type 1
Bipolar Disorder Type 2
Borderline personality disorder
C-PTSD/complex trauma
Coccinellidaephobia
Depression/Depressive episodes
Diagnosed disordered eating
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hypermobile subtype)
Formally (perhaps) diagnosed disordered eating
Gender dysphoria
Generational trauma
Genetic memory of the Maltese language
Histrionic tendencies
Informally diagnosed disordered eating
Mast cell activation syndrome
Non-binary
Obsessive compulsive disorder
Orthorexia
Otherwise-unspecified mood disorder
Rapid onset bipolar disorder
Rapid onset gender dysphora
Ruptured gall bladder with accompanying sepsis
Transgender-ish
As we introduce other players in the Sam saga (e.g., her partners), their info will be added.
We'll discuss it in a future installment, but here's the video that confirmed Sam's identity:

Sam Ehlert | 2014 Difference Makers 4 April 2014
(link | archive)
I will not pretend to be the person who made this discovery, as Sam has claimed to be "threatened" with her "dead name" since she started running her mouth on Twitter.
Special thanks:
@LarryDavid’s Opera Cape, for posting the initial phonebook (post) @Catastrophes, for sending me stuff
So she's a NEET. But we're making it a "situation" and it's connected to something or whatever. And generations. And capitalism....grief. This has got to be parody
I remember the Marina Watanabe girl, never could stand her. She was constantly pumping out videos in which she would go on long rants espousing third wave feminist theory that reality easily showed was retarded.
The video that sticks out to me the most was one where she had her boyfriend in the video and everything she said was degrading toward him abd men in general. When it was finally his turn to talk you could tell he was really bothered by what she'd just said but tried to be a good "ally"/male feminist and just went along with it. I have wondered if he ever grew a pair and got away from her or if he ended up sticking with her like a beaten puppy.
Side note: it is interesting how many of the Everday Feminist people were troons. You'd think thay women wouldn't want a bunch of men who have fetishized being a woman so badly that they try to turn into one and start screeching about feminism.
I'm half-tempted to believe you, particularly as she's discussing her hardships while sitting in front of a large cardboard box labeled "LR DECOR," ha ha.
My working theory is her "partner" was paying for her upkeep, while whatever income she made from her "therapy" business (link) went to her fun money fund.
I assume she's in a better, more stable place now, as nothing's really changed on her Instagram (link).
