So it looks like Fredrick Knudsen (Aka the creator of the Down The Rabbit Hole series on YouTube) has confirmed that he might eventually making a video on Maradonia and The Seven Bridges after a fan asked him about it.

I honestly hope he does, the Maradonia books and movie are meme factories.
Are the Tesches still trigger-happy with threatening lawsuits and DMCAs? Their recent financial straits may help push Maradonia into the ironic entertainment mainstream, now that it's known they're objectively all bark, no bite.
 
They are certainly resold from somewhere. The bikinis are sold on other sites and I don't see why the dresses would be any different.
She is definitely aiming for the "fashion designer" label for her resume. Shockingly she isn't more blatant about it and outright claiming she designed them. Its just implied by the name.
 
Those are literally dropshipped from China.
Someone posted a review earlier where a customer said that those took for ever to arrive and she charged a ridiculous amount of shipping on every item.
 
I can't figure out what's wrong with this picture but it looks completely unnatural. (Well, even more so than usual...)

Is Glo-Glo trying to use some kind of weird PhotoShop filter, or has she really plastered the cake-up make-up on her face? A girl her age shouldn't have to cover that much up.
 
I'm kind of amazed that she has all these tweets with zero likes on them. "Girl in a bikini" doesn't seem like a particularly hard sell. Lower audience engagement than Kengle. Sad!
Where's the new book, Gloria?
I think it's because of her infamy

Tesch's twitter is fucking weird.
 
lol, this bitch is like if Gloria almost succeeded.
LA Times said:
For a few hours, a debut author shone at the top of the N.Y. Times bestseller list Thursday. But after online commenters questioned how the book got there, the paper removed "Handbook for Mortals" by Lani Sarem. What happened?

Author Phil Stamper thought it was strange when "Handbook for Mortals" was climbing and poised to knocked "The Hate U Give" off the No. 1 spot on the Young Adult Hardcover bestseller list.

"The Hate U Give" is the debut novel from author Angie Thomas. It came out in February to widespread critical acclaim, including glowing reviews from prominent book bloggers who had read advance copies. It's been optioned for a film, and has spent 25 weeks on the New York Times' bestseller list.

In contrast, "Handbook for Mortals" was announced only last month, as the first offering from website GeekNation's new publishing venture.

The most recent New York Times YA hardcover bestseller list was released on Wednesday. Stamper, the author of YA ebook "Crowded," said in a direct message on Twitter that "pretty much everyone I knew was stumped" to see "Handbook for Mortals" at the top of the list.

"I couldn't find one person who had ever heard of this author, this title, or the publisher," he continued. "This book had zero publicity." (His findings were first reported by the website Pajiba.)

The Hollywood Reporter announcing "Handbook's" publication noted that a film franchise was also in the works. It already had a website. According to IMDBPro, the author, Lani Sarem, is set to star. She'll play "Zade," a "free-spirited twenty-something girl who comes from a long dynasty of tarot card readers who practice magick."

No one knows exactly how many books you sell to reach national bestseller lists, but estimates are in the low thousands. Sometimes, authors or publishers bulk-purchase copies in hopes of making the list. Typically, the New York Times denotes books that have received bulk orders, though this was not the case for "Handbook."

Nielsen BookScan, which compiles book sales data, indicated that more than 18,000 copies of “Handbook” had been ordered. Stamper theorized that the publisher was behind the bulk orders, in conjunction with the planned movie release.

Angie Thomas, the author of "The Hate U Give," posted a screen shot Thursday afternoon that showed "Handbook" had been removed from the list.

“Handbook” briefly reappeared on the list again Thursday evening but was later removed again. The amateur sleuthing has already inspired fan art and is a Twitter moment in its own right.

So, I just want everyone to know that they can now get a copy of Maradonia even if they live outside of the USA.

I'm tempted to get it, but mainly so I can see for myself the entirety of the carnage that Gloria calls her book.

Trust me, I have both kindle versions and an authentic Maradonia hardcover tome. Not worth it. You can see the pictures for free and the books are in the biggest print imaginable with the most obnoxious bolding and italicising possible. Unless it's purely as a lolcow trophy I wouldn't spend the cash. Although, I will say it's fun to open random pages and find a typo. There's always a typo. I have The Law of Blood btw, and bought it secondhand.

Can you give a quick rundown of what happens after the events of the movie/the first book? I heard they get the child army to bathe in the invincible water and the Evil Empire runs away, then they go on a tour where everyone circlejerks about how great they are, then they return home and only a day has passed, then they go to school and Gloria/Maya gets beat down by Alana and her friends, but I never heard anything after that.
