Cow crossover on fund-raising efforts:
Rev Bob has stepped up and joined the boycott against the band London Suede.
The organizer is Marissa Morris aka Virgo Rouge aka Marisa Elene Nadieja, a lolcow currently homeless and doing meal deliveries so she can splurge on a cheap motel room one night a week in New Jersey instead of sleeping in her car.
In typical Bob fashion, he's clueless about what he's joined.
He's responding to her video today (this is archived on KF):

Marissa is mad at Suede because 10 or more years ago, she believed she was exchanging messages with band member Brett Anderson. She had found Brett's photo online and looked at it for a long, long, long time because he was attractive. Abracadabra, he contacted her! But it turned out he was vapid, got successful only because he went to bed with a rich woman, and admits he knows nothing about music. Fah! Marissa contacted Brett's son to make it clear she was not Brett's mistress after the band put out a song called "Mistress."
If you think none of that makes sense, tough shit because it makes sense to Marissa.
Today's battle cry:
Suede epitomizes what's wrong with the music industry. Boycott Suede and give all your money to Negativland! Why Negativland? Read on.
For non-Marissians: She's a 58-year-old failed musician and vocalist who makes unintentionally hilarious videos. She got her thread in 2016 and believes Null persecutes her because she is three shades whiter than he is.
When she tried to form her own Justice League of lolcows to get KF shut down, McKim joined up and, as you can see, KF no longer exists. Surely they will destroy Suede just as handily.
Marissa's also mad at Justin Hayward, Roger Keith Barrett, and Bela Fleck, all of whom were obsessively in love with her (without knowing it) but failed to promote her music or give her money. Someone who did give her money -
paranormal money - was Roddy McDowall, the dead gay Disney actor who became her ghost husband. Roddy also fixed her space heater before she got forced out of her Staten Island apartment.
And that takes us to Marissa's motivation for the boycott. A member of Negativland, Jon Leidecker, has long talked up her music and done her favors, including paying her for sound samples he uses in his sound collages (
example). He's now offered to ask the band's followers to donate to Marissa since she's in such a deep financial hole.
She wants everyone to stop giving money to Suede and give it all to Negativland so Marissa can have it. She wants to join Negativland, too, but so far they've demurred (great audio file of her weedling at the bottom of
this post).
