This is standard operating procedure, isn't it?

Right? We have a word that specifically means "female members of our shared human species". I can let it slide in a lot of scientific settings, just to make things as clinical and clear as possible. But random conversations? You're talking about women, dudes, not some alien creatures.

Yeah, I used to watch all of her videos immediately after they released, but other than showing some games I've never played before, it's rarely anything I've never considered or thought about or discussed. But, hey, that doesn't mean the videos aren't educational and useful for others.

Ugh. That's really the best way to put it, but putting it like that just makes it feel even grosser.

She lives in a bubble? Doubtful. But you don't. Here you are, commenting about her. In the next week there will be a dozen videos criticizing her on the same website she posted her video. She's not hiding from analysis or scrutiny, she's purposefully trying to block abuse.

It's the same mentality that thinks artists don't need to be paid for their work generally. It's like, being a writer costs almost nothing, but paying for the home the writer lives in, and the food they eat, and the clothes they wear, much less what they might provide for their family, all so they can continue to be a…

I already explained this, but: Making a promise in exchange for money and then delivering on that promise is the exact opposite of grifting.

Yes. A true Men's Right Activist would be working side-by-side with Feminists, since the goals of treating the sexes equally would theoretically be the same.

Here's the difference between sex/sexy/sex appeal and catering to the male gaze, as I understand it: Harley Quinn.

She's been steadily releasing videos for those same few years. She never said it would be done in a given period of time, but a given number of videos.

Daaaaaaaamn!

A con would be if she never made another video after her Kickstarter campaign and instead ran off to some new Internet thing she could exploit and make even more money from her marks. She's actually fulfilling the promises she made, which is the exact opposite of a con. Words have meanings, damn it.

He french fry'd when he should have pizza'd.

I think Deadpool's making a play for Best Butt in Comicdom, but we all know once the spandex comes off he doesn't stand a chance.

Put a bowl on your head and go to town. How many videos does this actually need?

She clearly stated at the end of her campaign that all the extra money she received was going into producing more videos, not making her planned slate more pretty.

Hm, that's fair. But also, this last season saw her mostly camping out in forests staring at castle walls. I think that, combined with Phasma's like three lines of dialogue and the badass costume, created the perfect storm.

Just because he'll already be Spider-Man doesn't mean we can't have flashbacks to spell everything out for us. Did you know Batman's an orphan? Zack Snyder is going to make damn sure you don't forget it, and his Batman is already retired!

"Be… sure… to… drink… your… blue… milk? Blue milk? A crummy commercial! Son of a Hutt!"

Won't any of these sick kids ever stop being selfish? You get one wish, wish for a cure, you stupid sick kids!
