What the heck did he think you'd say?? Eesh. Pushover.

I am killing time outside a Starbucks--finished work in one place early but can't meet with the doctor and have her sign things until 5pm. Except all my electronics are running out of battery but the plugs are all in use indoors.

Also, stupid AT&T pushed back the ship date of my phone AGAIN. Now it's the second half of November. Wtf???

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

So my bad!director migraine returned, and my avoidance of the dentist has come to an end as it is finally clear that it really is tooth related. All of my teeth-grinding has finally paid off. Hello, root canal.

So I've been following the whole #gamergate fiasco, because I know Anita Sarkeesian socially, and I know a ton of people who game.

And the fuckers just doxxed Felicia Day. Because she posted about how the whole thing makes her nervous about dealing with gamers, even though she's a gamer and built a lot of her career on the fact that she's a gamer. Fuckheads.

It's not about punishing women, nooooo.

Jesus, I'd just read her piece. I hope her agents and lawyers and fans come down like fire.

I'm not a gamer, have just the edge of understanding of gamer gates origins and... Fire.

Because books.

What does "doxxed" mean?

Publishing someone's documentary information. In this case, home phone and address. (Often it includes SSN and bank information.)

Thrive to spite them

And she stated multiple times that she hestiate to say anything becuase of problems she's had with stalkers and peopel finding her personal information.

But they do this to her, becuase it's about a lack of "Journalistic Integrity" with the original issue, so in order to protest a lack of integrity you have to show an extreme lack of integrity and character. (or something).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

And yet they didn't dox Chris Kluwe and Wil Wheaton when they spoke out. But it's not about hating women.

Yeah, it's about ethics the way the GOP's Voter ID laws are about vote fraud.
