Good point, Jim! Let's explore what I did in the blog post you mentioned versus what Robby's doing, shall we?

Hi Robby! Thanks for stopping by! One small correction: I don't think you've ever "reported" a goddamn thing in your life. (And because I know you're going to do this, either here or in my Twitter mentions, which you and your friends are currently stink-clouding up with your Feelings, I have a master's degree in…

Her dress was interfering with ethics in gaming journalism.

"Oh please. it was a tragic event where two people made mistakes."

Don't blame her. There is SO much pressure to be coupled up, and some people really need that person to bounce ideas off of, and have sex with, and all that...so it may work better for her. I have learned to deal with the questions - some people are SO rude and persistent, you would not fucking believe - "Oh, you're…

I'm 29 and I remember both when I would have thought anything like this was outré or a meaningful expression of how edgy I was, and the moment where I realized how incredibly immature that sort of thing made me look. It's painful to think about how much more easily the latter comes to mind.

I never had kids, but I finally, at 45-ish, decided to stop having relationships with men, and my life has been pretty blissful ever since. I know there are great, supportive, smart men out there, but I was never able to find one who wasn't more trouble than he was worth. There were emotional issues. There was…

I thought I needed to do this. With five children I was looking at part time work so I could continue to do everything at home as well. But part time work is hard to come by and you hardly ever get to choose what *kind* of work you do if the hours are paramount.

Hahaha what a bunch of shit. Your niece is for sure a vapid tacky future awful adult. There simply is no other truth. Her instagram account has secured her place in society as total shit when it comes to being a human being. You are just writing the article with a neutral tone to be praised yourself for being…

In my teens I was in the generation of Myspace and Xanga and taking "selfies" before they were called that. It's not hard for me to imagine what having all of this stuff would have been like.. because it would have been pretty much like it is now and I'm still young enough where there was some overlap.

I however…

I was a hater in middle school. I was a hater in high school. I was a hater in college. And now, as a woman in my 30s, I remain a hater. I have a cousin who is 20 and all over instagram with these kinds of pics and I just can't even stand it. I should probably go to therapy for it I guess.

You've gotta be fucking kidding me. Women suing for the "right" to buy expensive overpriced makeup when it's clear there is no basis to this suit as the Website was simply overloaded.

If you still ally yourself with GamerGate at this point, the problem is you. You are the problem.

That's something we had quite a few discussions about as I reported this story, which, as you can see, took a whole lot of time. Ultimately, Stephen and I decided that the benefits of this story are to shine a spotlight on A) just one of many, many people that critics like Anita Sarkeesian deal with on daily basis,…

I think we agree that he's an ass. I was just pointing out that he wasn't wearing that shirt because he was some kind of fashion-oblivious science guy; he was intentionally making a statement.

Yeah, it's all about the massive intellect when somebody who just completed an historical mission decides that wearing a shirt with half naked women all over it is the right attire to announce said history making. Intellectual POWERHOUSE, that one.

True. The candle probably weighs more than her.

To be honest, most of Jezebel's science writing is lacking, leaning towards irresponsible. It's kind of par for the course. That said, NBC is the one who found the quotes from doctors wondering if it was rushed to market (apparently forgetting it's been on the market for 11 yrs in the USA), so I can't really hold Jez…

This is a carelessly, in my opinion, written article that does not make clear that Essure is meant to be a permanent form of birth control that would never be offered to someone who wanted to one day have children.

It does lead to permanent sterility. That's the whole point.
