Margo's Got Money Problems: Modern Feminism Discovers OnlyFans
June 2026
You go girl!
Set up an OnlyFans account...
And take control of your life...
You can make some money...
And get to humiliate men...
Who will pay you for that privilege...
Wow... what’s not to like...
I guess we have reached the stage in modern feminism...
Where girl power means selling soft-core porn on the internet...
Because this sure seems to be a trend...
As it is the premise of Margo's Got Money Problems...
As well as a major plot point in the last season of Euphoria...
Ok...
Now Margo's Got Money Problems is a light hearted series...
About a single mom just trying to get by...
Who discovers that OnlyFans is a great work from home job...
Where you don’t have to pay for day care...
And Margo, who is played by the always fun to watch Elle Fanning...
Is smart, resourceful, and a devoted mom...
But if Margo was really that smart...
She would know that in Fullerton...
Where she lives...
As a new mom...
She could get $1000 a month from Cal Works...
SNAP benefits for food through CalFresh for $500-700 a month...
Medical...
Be eligible for Section Eight subsidized housing...
WIC benefits for food... which amounts to $100-200 a month..
A childcare subsidy...
And Utility Payment Assistant through CARE/FERA...
Oh.. and assistance to pay for diapers...
So there is a little problem with the premise of this series...
That OnlyFans was her only option...
Whatever...
Margo’s dilemma... and her new job as an OnlyFans star...
Is the excuse for a fun romp...
Where everyone is kind of a cartoon character...
Because Margo’s mom used to work at Hooters and her dad was a professional wrestler...
Nick Offerman as Margo’s dad...
Is kind of quiet and cool... until he isn’t...
When he becomes a great big volcano...
Offerman has presence...
So even though he doesn’t say much...
He dominates the screen...
Her mom, played by Michelle Pfeiffer...
Is hot, narcissistic...
And holds Margo’s baby like he was a bomb...
So she is not much help...
And she is engaged to a pastor...
Who seems pretty clueless about the family is about to marry into...
And there is the kind hearted quirky friend... who is the best of the lot...
Oh... I almost forgot...
Nichole Kidman also shows up...
Looking like she is on loan from some Plastic Surgery Wax Museum...
But this all works....
Because Margo's Got Money Problems...
Definitely has a ComiCon feel...
And Margo sees her OnlyFans gig...
As a creative outlet...
Where she can flex her storytelling chops...
Because Margo always wanted to be a writer...
And I guess in a world where no one reads books anymore...
Or anything... for that matter...
And the hot movies in the theaters this week were made by YouTubers
Maybe Margo is on to something ...
