I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

the fuck does that even mean in this context, "acting like Gamergaters"?

I mean, if anything, Creepy Fanboy is, what with the hunting people down on their own timelines. But still, wtf, rando person.

That was my exact response (internally). Like I said, she's barely an acquaintance, and so I have no idea what goes on in her head or what she means (or thinks she means) by "acting like Gamergaters", and if she feels like she needs to end our "longtime friendship" (wha?), then far be it from me to stop her.

People are SO weird.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ooooh, can we take bets on how long the flounce lasts before she reluctantly returns, supported by the lurkers in email?

Gamergator was a dual-type Water/Ground Pokémon. It was cut from the final version of the game. - Gamergators are usually solitary creatures. They can be dragged into social issues when it starts to concern them.

Whoa, just got a audio emergency alert that was not a test (severe thunderstorm alert...in counties not mine.)

Root canal is done. I get the filling put on Thursday. Injection sites are sore as is my gum where the clampy thing they put on the tooth kinda gouged it up, so I expect it'll be back to normal in a few days.

Hooray, completed root canal!

Recovery~ma, sarameg

So, Steph's Geek Cred requiring documentation made me think of how Doctor Who was arguably my first fandom. I even went to a meeting of a fan club of some sort at the library, but found it intensely uncomfortable and have kind of shied away from cons and whatnot since. Sort of want to draw some kind of conclusion from that....

Fan communities based around genre TV shows are weird and sketchy?

...wait.

That can't be it.
