You know me now as Story, but some of you might remember me better as Vampireapologist or Mallaidh-Anne.
I want to thank you all sincerely for the kindness you have shown me, for many years, and especially in this last month. My campaign is 35% funded, more than 1/3, all thanks to you! More than just your donations, I am overwhelmed by your words of support since its launch.
If you haven't seen my prior posts on the topic: I am thrilled to have accepted an offer to attend University College Dublin’s School of Irish, Celtic Studies and Folklore this autumn (2025).
Although I graduated at the top of my class in my undergraduate degree, and I happily earned a small scholarship through community service work in 2022, I cannot afford the cost of attendance on my own. I am therefore turning to my community for support.
I do not ask lightly, and it is only after many months of encouragement and insistence of friends and family that I am taking this step. I have dedicated the last eight years of my life to the study, preservation, interpretation, and presentation of natural resources and cultural heritage.
It's my ambition to continue and expand my work, in service to ecological conservation and community involvement, focused on the intrinsic link between cultural and natural heritage.
Read More about my education, financial need, and service goals below, or go directly to the GoFundMe page for more information!
Donations can be made to the GoFundMe OR for as little as $1.00 via PayPal to my Ko-Fi (click this link)! All donations will go directly to a savings account for this fund.
My name is Story. I have lived a colorful life and picked up nicknames around the… Story C needs your support for Back Story's Education and
In 2023, I was thrilled to accept an unconditional offer to UCD for 2024. Unfortunately, health complications exacerbated by a Covid-19 infection interrupted my path, and I had to defer my offer for one year.
I pivoted to a work-from-home job with less physical demands, to focus on intensive, weekly medical treatments and to save money for school. In my free time, I continued my conservation work with my former colleagues, as a volunteer for the marine mammal rescue team. I also co-founded a grassroots nonprofit which serves Queer people in rural, island communities.
While my health has vastly improved so I can confidently succeed in school, I was impacted by layoffs in November 2024, dashing my school-savings goal. Despite my tireless efforts, I have yet to find full-time work. Like many Queer people who grew up in Appalachia, I have tangled with poverty in adulthood and even overcome homelessness. I work hard to keep up with everyday expenses, but I have no savings. I cannot defer a second time.
This GoFundMe will cover immediate costs, including tuition, residency permits, and course fees. It will supplement other costs, including accommodations, health insurance, and class materials. This is a one-year graduate degree program, and I am seeking support for one year.
As a donor, you will play a crucial role in my life, empowering me to work my hardest and secure a future that would be otherwise out of reach. This may be a one-year program, but it will chart the course I follow for the rest of my life.
If you have income to spare and the desire to support my future, I gratefully accept your donation. If you cannot donate, you can share a link to this campaign to offer support.
This campaign will end August 1, 2025, to meet my tuition and relocation deadlines.
Thank you, sincerely, for empowering me to continue my work and education and dedicate myself to ecological and cultural conservation!
You can read more about the cost breakdown, my scholarships, and other information directly on the GoFundMe page!
Hi hi it’s my weekly share! Trying to keep your dashes uncluttered, but it’s Friday! Thank you so much again for your support! I just attended a U.S. student orientation event in person, and I got to meet some amazing people! I’m even more excited to to attend this program this fall if it all works out!

I have to out myself as a perfume bitch to say this, but if you do find yourself thinking, "I really love this note, but FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, every perfume that contains it smells disgusting," the problem almost always is YOUR skin chemistry reacting to that note. A common thing people complain about is vanilla making them smell like a hamster cage. The funny thing is, the fragrance community refers to the note that reacts with your skin chemistry badly as your "death note".
i taught a baking class for 12 year olds today and we made your garden variety chocolate chip cookies, but i’m a big believer in Questioning Everything and the who/what/where/why/when/how behind things, so the first part of the class was purposely letting the kids do things the wrong way, to show and explain why we do things the way we do.
“why do we bake cookies at 180 for 9 minutes when we could do 400 for 2 minutes?”
-enter the godawful lump of coal with a still gross wet and uncooked inside
“why do we have to scoop out little cookies instead of doing the whole tray?”
-ok well that one you can technically do if the spread is even. you just end up with one giant, structurally unsound cookie.
“PLEASE CAN WE MAKE GIANT COOKIES”
(we did make 1 giant tray cookie)
we talked a lot about why consistency is important, but i don’t think it really hammered home until i said “okay everyone gets ONE cookie, that’s fair, right?” and then handed out cookies of hugely varying sizes. + baked one fat lump of a cookie that still wasn’t done at the 9 minutes, vs the regular one i put in that came out charred by the time the first was actually done.
we also made a row of cookies where each one had one single differing ingredient omitted, like a cookie with no flour, or a cookie with no butter, and laid them all out on a single tray to bake together to see how each ingredient affects the outcome.
two of the little girls added cocoa to their cookie doughs until it matched the colour of each others skin to make best friend cookies, and that almost made me tear up a bit 🥺
got briefly distracted (…for over half an hour…) talking about how eggs form when someone cracked an egg and it had 2 yolks
expertly tolerated being asked how old i am (just turned 31 the other day) which was immediately followed by asking if i watched the moon landing live on tv
was so focused on keeping track of all the kids that in the end i forgot to make a cookie for myself, but it’s ok because one of the girls gave me this
the class went well and they asked if i wanted to do another one in a couple weeks and i said yeah, and they’re taking uh… fuck, what’s the word for inventory when it’s people?? attendance?? whatever, they’re trying to see who’s interested to get a feel of if it’d be 1 three hour class again or if there’s too many kids so we’d do a couple classes. anyways, i love the emails from Concerned Parents.
“will there be knives involved?”
we are baking cookies.
“what temperatures does the oven get to/will it be hot enough to burn?”
we are baking cookies.
“will there be [insert ingredient used in cookies]?”
we are baking cookies.
“are you using fahrenheit or celsius?”
??????? d-does it matter?? it’s going to get Hot. (also celsius; this is ontario)
“are the ovens childproof?”
no?? i’m assuming you’re asking if i’m going to let your kids reach into the ovens while i’m staring out a window in another room. i will not be allowing your children to use the ovens. they will not be left unattended.
“why is the library baking class taking place at the high school?”
the library does not have 10 ovens. the library does not even have 1 oven. the high school has many ovens.
“what if i don’t want my child to have cookies? can you let her make muffins instead?”
this is a baking class for cookies. we are baking cookies.
“cookies aren’t healthy. why don’t you make [insert whatever]”
do you know how many cookies i can make with a $40 budget and a trip to the bulk store? we are making cookies.
“who needs a class to bake a cookie, why not teach something more valuable?”
IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT THE COOKIES, KAREN, IT’S ABOUT FAMILIARIZING CHILDREN WITH THE ART AND SCIENCE OF BAKING/COOKING/FOOD, ABOUT TRYING NEW THINGS, MAKING MISTAKES AND REALIZING THAT THE MISTAKES ARE NOT ONLY OKAY TO MAKE BUT VALUABLE IN AND OF THEMSELVES, FAMILIARIZING THEM WITH INDEPENDENCE, THE UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THINGS CAN COME TOGETHER TO FORM A NEW AND BETTER WHOLE, ALL WHILE HAVING TRYING TO INJECT A MODICUM OF JOY INTO THEIR LITTLE LIVES. SORRY THAT THERE ARE CONCEPTS AT PLAY YOU CAN’T SEEN TO UNDERSTAND HERE. MAYBE YOU SHOULD COME JOIN AND I’LL LET YOU MAKE A FUCKING COOKIE.
Funny how depending on who's saying it and where, the words "dark fantasy" could mean that the work contains a hardcore questionably ethical kink scenario, or it could mean that at some point there might be some kind of a Skeleton King.

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?
the unabomber was pedantic about idiomatic phrases like "have your cake and eat it too" and rephrased it to "eat your cake and have it too" (which to be very fair makes sense). fast forward to when he starts writing manifestos. he uses the phrase word for word in his pedantic style and his brother (who has been keeping his eyes on the unabomber shit for obvious reasons) notices the phrase and is like "oh fuck that's my fucking brother no one else fucking says that" and calls in an FBI tip
