I read the original tweet and she seems to suggest that the marks were caused by the dog, not the car. I'm still suspicious though because they look too clean to be dog claw marks.
Your suspicion is well placed. Dog scratches tend to be parallel marks in threes or fours, they aren't clean like that, and they don't show signs of hesitation wounds.

Nasty business, that "Listen and Believe" tripe.
Wu might want to change her tune regarding skepticism.

So with Soylent, you still binge-snack on Oreos?

I would really like clarification on the whole meal-replacement thing:

1) Does she still do it? I have some undiscussed idea that it was part of some way-too-extreme dieting sperg reaction to being called fattie-fat, hence John's purported huge weight loss. You know, instead of learning to develop a healthy relationship with food and not treat it like your secret lover, John eliminates it wholly. And makes it part of his identity. And runs like a desperate anorexic. And manufactures the excuse that, Einstein-like, the Solyent change is due his new, ultra-busy demanding business-life which makes picking out a meal too much time expended...time which he can't afford to sacrifice. Isn't that just John in a nutshell? Food = too much time, but Twitter, Mario maker, Feminist War Cult? Plenty O' time!

2) So she snacks normally ("Normal" Wu, *snicker*) but doesn't eat the actual 3 square meals? She doesn't seem too proud of it, because unlike every other aspect of the Wu-life, it doesn't get constant brags on the Twitter. Which is weird, because Wu brags about everything...even her friend's "Pet Rescue" *Cough* *NOTICE ME!* *Cough* Which would lead me to think that maybe she doesn't do it (The Soylent, that is) anymore, but.... there's almost no mention of normal meals, and the food references are oblique and weird, like buy-me-dinner-first-if-you-just-airport-groped-me.

Also, where did those two pics of Wu as John which showed the weight loss in the first "She's a he"-post come from? They were particularly Alan Cumming-ish, and I've never heard mention of their origins...

I don't really have a problem with Brianna the way some people do. There's quite a few things we probably agree on even if I do think she spends way too much time devoted to twitter/social media drama. That being said...all I want is Revolution 60 to FINALLY be on PC or Android. I think it looks cool but my goodness does it really take almost 3+ years to make a PC port? Its pretty inexcusable.

I know the game's Facebook said last week that it is almost ready to launch on Steam but still that is a heck of a long time for people who did the Kickstarter in 2013 to wait.
But...but...."Naughty Girls Need Love Too" is so problematic!

IIRC they appeared on ED first, but I don't think they posted a source to it. Maybe ask the EDitor who posted them?

She mentioned it a few weeks back, pretty sure she still does it she just doesn't boast about it as much anymore because Soylent is becoming a bit of a laughing stock. If the creator wasn't so successful he's probably be a lolcow, we're talking about someone so autistic instead of actually learning how to eat a balanced diet he invested a massive amount of time making a "balanced" jug of malty semen like sludge just so he doesn't have to think about food anymore (no different from autists who ONLY eat plain pizza, just maybe 'healthier"). "My home is a place of peace. I don’t want to live with red-hot heating elements and razor-sharp knives"

A guy that donates his clothes instead of washing them because it's so cheap to buy new ones from china sweatshops and he's too much of an autist to learn how to do his own laundry. Literally a manchild who doesn't want to have to deal with everything that comes with being an adult and writes lengthy roundabout articles trying to justify his ridiculous behaviour as some sort of noble energy and water saving.

Back to Bri if she wasn't an anorexic wannabe then I'd bet she'd be the chicken tendies and mac+cheese for every meal child's palate sort. Because no one who actually has an adult appreciation of food would want anything to do with that soylent crap, food is one of the greatest pleasures and doesn't need to be unhealthy, Soylent is just a way for people who can't eat vegetables to pretend to be healthy and pass it off as some "I'm TOOO BUSY for food" bullshit.
 
You know why the Concorde doesn't exist any more?

It couldn't turn a profit. There just wasn't enough of a market for the vastly more expensive option of supersonic transport.

And even when it did it only flew at Sanik speeds over the Atlantic because of sonic booms. It's not gonna fly from New York to San Francisco even if it is brought back.
 
It *is* cutting. Wu is a god-damned idiot.

Look at the cuts. Really look at them and indulge your inner CSI. What story are they telling?

You've got the two deepest ones, exactly parallel to each other and perpendicular to the arm. Those were probably the first. Next were the two diagonal ones. They're also parallel to each other, but the distance between them is greater. This is because she was using the first two cuts as reference points, notice how they intersect perfectly at the top and bottom.

The ones below those are fainter, probably running out of steam at this point. They're mostly parallel and still two of them since people really like to indulge the desire for symmetry. Notice that she had to double cut the lower one to make it long enough, while the upper was polite enough to stop short before it crossed over the previously made cut - considerate car!

The ones on the bicep were added a bit later to make things a bit more random looking; but it also means she would have had to have slid in *five* directions after impact.

All the wounds show the blood "dotting" effect of a sharp instrument pressed just deep enough to draw blood. All the wounds are on the *inside* of the arm. And someone tell me is even Wu too dim to notice the previously inflicted and now healing injuries on the forearm? How many cars is this woman jumping in front of?

Soooo... there was a brief period in my life when I was engaging in fantastic self-destructive sex with a fantastically self-destructive girl. I claim expert testimony.
....another question would be, how these scratches get there in the first place.
I don't think she wants to say that the cause for these scratches is, that she was hit by a car. Unless it was a truck loaded with shattered pottery, you don't get these kind of scratches from getting hit by a car, period. So I guess they are supposed to be dog scratches.

As pointed out, those scratches are all on the inside of her arm and all of them they are solitary, there are no parallel scratches as you would expect from a dog scratch. Also, considering the number of scratches she has, the dog either has only one claw on each paw, or it wasn't a dog that did this.

She must have held or interacted with that dog for at least a few seconds, otherwise you can't explain the number of scratches on her forearm. We can also expect that, if she had more scratches elsewhere, she would have probably posted them, not just the one arm. I also have trouble to imagine a way to hold, push, move or carry a dog, that involves exposing the inside of my left forearm that much to it, in a way that most of the scratches are made horizontally. You can also see, that some of the marks on the right side of her arm are more crooked, which is exactly the spot where it is harder to move in straight lines if you cut yourself.

We should also note that this is her non-dominant arm, judging from other selfies she did.

Thirdly, no bite marks. Dogs usually bite if they are scared, so that she doesn't show us a bite mark is rather suspicious. The dog really needed to be in some distress to cause so many deep scratches, so a bite should be in there somewhere. And if you look at those scratches, where they are placed and how big and long some of them are, it was certainly not a small dog who supposedly did that. Bites from big dogs are not fun, not fun at all. Granted, the dog could have been muzzled, buuuuuut....

Fourth, she claims that she saved the dog from being hit by a car. She also claims to be a writer, so I don't think she mixed up "after" and "from". So we can assume that she somehow pulled a bigger, mono-clawed and muzzled dog off the streets... or prevented it from running onto the street. Something you usually do by grabbing the collar, and if you grab the collar with your right hand, you usually don't get those kind scratches, except you kneel down and present the dog your left arm to scratch all over it.

...so yes, she cuts herself.
 
Friendly Neighborhood EMT/Firefighter here. These wounds definitely weren't caused by a dog (Not jagged enough, she should have reflexively recoiled or moved in some way to make the scratch marks much more erratic. There are zero signs of defensive wounds that any person interacting with a violent animal or person would have), and they sure as fuck weren't caused by a car, since those cause mostly crushing/blunt trauma injuries, and there's none of that going on, not even really signs of bruising.
 
Kiwi with a history of medical work and triage here as well. By no means a current professional, but lots of experience in wound types and first aid.

Those abrasions do not match claw or tooth marks. The wounds are largely surface-based - no penetrating wounds at all. Fangs and claws are distinctly "thorn shaped" and invariably leave a dragging line for all but the shallowest of cuts. This is because a claw or bite has to essentially "catch into" a wound to deal the bulk of its damage.

Additionally, those wounds have something that caught my eye immediately. Those wounds are all shallow - and with significant tissue irritation, indicating abrasion around the wound sites. This would indicate that the injured arm in question was injured by a serrated surface (ergo irritating the wound site), and not a terribly sharp one (or they'd be deeper). This would mean a very dull steak or bread knife, or perhaps a butter knife.

I was immediately reminded of when Phil attempted "Self-Harm" with a plastic knife from a restaurant.
 
Showing my powerlevel a bit, but I used to self harm and would come up with stupid explanations which people would either accept or not question, when I really wanted them to and ask me if I was alright. It shows Wu's complete lack of empathy that her first reaction to what looks like a call for help from a self harmer is "Lol look how cool my mate is!"
 
stupid explanations which people would either accept or not question,

I knew a few cutters personally and most of them did not do it for attention at all. It was usually done in secret. They seem to treat as an embarrassment and most give stupid explanations when noticed, like "I fell on glass, a nail scratched me, or the door jam got me". Those are some of most common ones I heard.
 
It's funny how these internet loons have a sort of implicit pact to believe each other's straight-up nonsense. Mutually
Assured Delusion.
 
Good advice, John, and I can say this with confidence because you are tremendously effective at sucking at your job.
 
Little bit off topic but,

Yo real talk, I tried some Soylant last weekend because they were sponsoring an event I was at. It was 100x times better then what I was expecting after reading shit here.

If you like cereal and creamy milky drinks, it's actually pretty good. Apparently they also make a powdered form to bake with, but I'm expecting that to work for shit because baking is srs business and you can't just throw in some Soylant into a recipe and call it a day.
 
WHY would you not name the person if they were real?
Oh, I guess you're protecting their privacy, huh? What a joke.

These "I'm the boss at GSX" (even her business has to have a cute little hipster abbreviation, gag) tweets, which mention how important she is and how the "workers" need her so much, seem to come when she's feeling socially neglected, so we all remember how important she is...
