I am the GIF of Michael Jackson eating popcorn.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That makes slightly more sense than what I was imagining, actually. The whole Courtney Milan thing is so surreal, I am ready to believe just about anything

Whaaat? That is so weird. The whole thing is...so confusing and bizarre.

Because books.
RWA has been on the verge of imploding for many years. It's a shame because Courtney did so much heavy lifting to drag it into this century, and yet...

Such a mess. And I'm still astonished at the naivete of the people who went after her. Did they think she would simply slink away? Have they seen any of what she's done in the past in her other career?

Because books.
Right? If anyone is going to mobilize people absolutely clearheadedly, it's her.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
I got a kick out of "So now you're talking to lawyers? Now? Okay, there will be a brief intermission while I squee about ice skating!"

Yeah- I was really confused. I am only a tangential follower, but I know that Courtney Milan has righteous justice on her side, and she will not back down. Like, I think she should be nominated to the Supreme Court if Ruth Bader Ginsberg needs a backup.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Even if she had kept quiet, did they think the rest of the internet would just accept this?
