is great. She's a good friend and I really admire her commitment to saying what she actually believes and approaching the world with curiosity first. I think I've been able to be more open about what I think online because of her

Alright some of you fuckers who follow me are dunking on Aella, and I can't abide by this I'm lucky to call her a friend, and she's been one of the most valuable friends in the past six years Major element in my not ending up a lame East Coast journalist, for one thing

People are hating on her for her sex takes, but I actually go to church and I still stan for Aella. If Twitter ever goes down, she’s someone I’ll miss. One of the most unique voices out there.

I don’t see people hating on her. Disapproval/disagreement isn’t hate.

This is one of the things I appreciate most about Aella - without knowing her at all: her commitment to unapologetically and authentically be and share herself in spite of the resistance and hate she faces because of it. Very inspiring.

People irrationally hating you really want to be what you represent, but they can't because they need to virtue signal to their circle-jerking chamber bubbles so bad that 'Hey, Look at me, I also have the IHateAellabadge! Accept me more'
