As of September, Frank and John weren't even registered to vote in Massachusetts, according to the records available online

So it's being put off slightly less longer than the fixing of the game breaking bug in the final boss battle of the worst received independent video game release in the history of the Steam platform is what you're saying? Why am I not surprised in the least?

Frank strikes me as the type of guy who doesn't usually participate in politics because his vote won't 'count' in a solidly blue state like Massachusetts anyway but I could see John making him register, filling out the ballot and just forcing Frank to sign the final result to make it official, in kind of a reverse of the process for getting the game out to the early financiers of it this summer with an unbeatable boss fight at the end that isn't being addressed a month later.

Meanwhile, back in reality:

oh carolina.png

forgot the policy, I guess.png


So, a pretty recent policy then?

Since then, I can't remember that Wu has had any speaking engagements except for that panel she was on a worldcon, which wasn't even a Giant Spackat thing. She certainly hasn't been employing any subcontractors, or they might have patched R60 for her.

This "costly" policy didn't even tax her in as far as scrubbing twitter of embarrassing mentions of travelling through NC

Does she expect everyone to move out of the state?

Yes. Why not? All of her "friends" are as well off as he is and have networks, backchannels and Patreons to get them back on their feet and settled in a new place. If the mere plebs don't then that's too bad.
 
In the unlikely event that Trump wins Massachusetts, I can imagine John going insane and blaming himself for Trump winning there because he didn't vote.

But this is Massachusetts we're talking about so I doubt that would happen.
 
Can you think of anybody alive today who has a more involved game of personal political Twister currently entangling them than John Flynt? It's like if Chris had enough of a short term memory ability to have to try and keep up all petty feuds he rabbit trailed himself into over his life but was just so amoral he was prepared to lie for the next time to continue the charade instead of just admitting being wrong retroactively.

Could Chris have more humility than John Walker Flynt? :stress:

Yeah compared to all those great action movies and TV shows where the character godmodes his or her way through bad guys with no threat to their own safety whatsoever.

I'm pretty sure if most people had super powers they would also go out of their way to deescalate any tense situation they find themselves in. I guess this is insight into what happen if Wu gained any "powers" outside of the ability to frighten a bus filled with kids with a single snarl.

Who the fuck are you kidding? Brianna Wu / John Flynt NEVER blames himself.

In fact, here's a list of who gets the blame before Brianna Wu / John Flynt:

1. Gaymergate
2. Cisgender white dudes
3. Gaymergate
4. Bernie Bros
5. Gaymergate
6. All of Mississippi
7. Gaymergate
8. Milo!
9. Gaymergate
10. Pakman and all the rest
11. Gaymergate
12. "other people" (a.k.a. Kiwi Farms, but stating that name reveals who Brianna Wu / John Flynt really is so he avoids doing so)
13. Gaymergate
14. YOU!

I can literally think of a hundred different scenes where a hero refused to fight a hostile person, usually because they're either in an unfair position or the hostile is relatively weak compared to them and they know it wouldn't be fair. One Punch Man, a show with a Japanese protagonist, does this very well because they main character is constantly letting the blame for other hero's actions fall on him because he knows that he's the strongest and he doesn't want to make it look like other heroes are weak and imcopetent. It's a common hero trope all over the world, just because the main character is black doesn't make it special.
 
Beautiful to see Wu donate to that shit because some people they look up to on Twitter were doing it too "To be the bigger persons".

Then having to backpedal and finally become an Indian Giver because other people probably the socjus crowd were shitting on Wu for it.

Must be shit to have so much of your actions dictated by screaming retards in 120 character snippets all because a little number of 50K is the only achievement in your adult life.
