GamersGate is like that episode of The Office, where the boss was making up rumors on everyone and eventually got one right.

I was told by one that Zoe Quinn single-handedly orchestrated the destruction of a work-of-art reality TV show that poor, innocent TV producers worked so hard on.

No, that's actually a lazy assessment of things and pretty much always has been in every situation where it gets used.

Easy to say when you're not on the receiving end of the abuse.

Because people are still getting doxxed, swatted, dogpiled, brigaded, harassed or hounded every day. Because there was a livestream on Youtube less than an hour ago with RogueStar talking to people about evading Twitter blocks and doxxing David S. Gallant, Jay Allen and @srhbutts. Because there are developers that…

I know what you mean. The people on both sides of the "is murder wrong" and "is peadophilia okay?" arguments are such fucks, you know, instead of one side being decidedly wrong and the other side being attacked for not bowing to or standing up to bullies.

I share both your approximate geography and your overall incredulity. And the dad thing (two under two, one under one (yes I can confirm that I have done sex)). As a non-native of this whole Southland area, it absolutely boggles the fucking mind to see how many people are so dismissive of basic tenets of modern…

My kids have gone to 3 perfectly normal schools and 2 of them had peanut bans in rooms or in sections/tables in the lunchroom. Unlike you, however, I haven't been to every school in the country, so I bow to your OBVIOUS expertise.

We recently looked at enrolling my 2.5 year old son at a Waldorf pre-school, despite my objections about hippies. When we went for a school visit I loved the place. It's semi-rural and has a creek in the backyard and chickens and the kids play outside EVERY day even when it's raining out (I live in the PNW so that's…

As an AZ/PHX resident, I'm utterly shocked that someone here is an anti-science flat-Earth Wingnut.

Which is a way of saying that, if you read it, it will make you punch a hole in something and mutter things under your breath that will include the word "prison."

Who's to say he's not dog-racist against dachshunds and not pit bulls?

Everyone will want to adopt this dog once they realize that every time he opens his mouth a Pez candy comes out.

Sigh.

What I find particularly hard to deal with are the number of people who read all of these studies and hear all of these reports and still sneeringly say, "It's just calories in, calories out, dummy!"

I have no problem with you not shaving your legs, even for more than one day, and I have absolutely no problem with you wearing a bathing suit as underwear. But there is absolutely no excuse for an adult woman to walk around with chipped nail polish. Unacceptable!

You lost me at "class ring." There is absolutely NO reason anybody should wear one of those tacky pieces of shit.

I can't tell if you're joking, but that's the kind of necklace a person who wears nothing but Vibram Five Fingers shoes would wear.

Considering that's been the status quo for millennia, I fail to see your point.
