MAKE INFIDELITY GREAT AGAIN! AKA, Suffering from the AO3 Author Curse

from Vicsplaining: A Podcast by Vic Kennedy · host Vic J. Kennedy

This is the fifteenth episode of a podcast I'm calling Vicsplaining. It's just a nonsense podcast where I, Vic, explain my life to you and how I see other things.Today, I talk about how the AO3 author curse recently landed me in the hospital. Write responsibly, kids. I also talked about where I’ve been, attending the Horse Lady concert, partying with lesbians in the back of a Uhaul, hating surprises and flash mobs, the politics of infidelity, the Coldplay cheating scandal and how corny Ryan Reynolds is, purity culture, gooning out with the girls, and, as always, hating on AI. Please note that this episode was originally recorded on July 29th, 2025. Content warning for swearing, hospitalization, discussion about (my) OCD, mentions of genocide, references to nationalism and American exceptionalism, discussions of death and grief, infidelity, sexual content and suggestive conversation, pornography, rape and sexual assault, fascism and censorship, anal sex, masturbation, reclamation of the word “queer,” and ableism.
