Wow, Twitter creates fight-or-flight responses! It's a fucking warzone! BriBri better get out of there before she gets shot in the face with some harassment!
I would say "Don't quit your day job, Wu" but, well...:\

I don't know whether Wu's knowledge of biology, sociology, or how the internet works is worse.
 
I found a more in-depth look at her game history...

(just use the address you gave and take off the "xbox-one" part- it doesn't show her Xbox One history, but her 360 history. )

Some interesting things I noticed:

  • Her average game completion is only 16%
  • Downloaded Beyond good and Evil, but apparently never bothered to play it.
  • Barely even played Fez
  • Apparently owns a copy of Dead or Alive Xtreme 2.
  • Only games she's appeared to have put any real effort into playing is Mass Effect 2, Enslaved, Gears of War 3 (huh, okay), Dragon Age: Origins, and Alpha Protocol.
If it is correct though that user usual online Gamertag is Spacekatgal, her PSN account is even more damning: 222 games she has played, but only a 14.94% completion rate. (Edit: info already found about the PSN account. My bad.)

Why the hell does she have a Neptunia avatar? Is not exactly SJW friendly...

Bri, I need you to put down the pop psychology before you hurt yourself. I understand that you think you're very clever, but you're lining things up to get your shit wrecked by some terrible mansplainer who actually finished school for that shit.

Probably bio, if only because she's had no concievable reason to actually look at the field. The "high" sciences do not, ever put up with her kind of shit for very long. Let me give you an example from a presentation a friend and I had to do for an Ecology class. Our subject was mountaintop removal mining. There was a Feminist Studies paper that showed up in our search. We decided to read the abstract for shits and giggles. It didn't talk about the tradeoff normal of coalmines exploding more or less without warning vs. the massive amounts of pollution with the more destructive method. It didn't talk about the runoff's highly teratogenic nature and the fact that this places a massive personal and financial burden on poor pregnant women for both prenatal and postnatal care. Didn't even talk about the aesthetic damage. It talked about how big coal was blowing up mountains as a show of machismo. Every person I showed this to couldn't help but laugh at it, and it's probably notable that the university population skews female at a 2/1 ratio and the science professors are almost even.

It may not be an absolute thing in gender studies; but this is the kind of thing you see all the damn time.

I think that I've read that exact paper. It was pretty lulzy.

1. "Humans are primed to be social on a brain chemistry level."
2. "When people around us feel sad, we pick up on that."
3. logical abyss
4. "Long story short -- to be a professional in games - you can't go it alone, you must be social."

Also "I've been reading a lot of books on conversational psychology" is a weird thing to say when none of the Google results for "conversational psychology" are using it as the name of a field. "Conversation psychology" has some hits for listicles and one guy's shady academic website. Social psychology is a thing, discourse pragmatics is a thing, psycholinguistics is a thing. This is none of those things.

And I'd also like to point out that calling yourself "imperator" is ridiculous, not only because you're borrowing a Latin word in the wrong gender, but because it's literally the same word that developed into English "emperor." (And we even have the feminine version, "empress"!) I find it suspicious that SJW's would get behind a term like this considering I can't toast a waffle without hearing about COLONIALISM. But hey, if Brianna's going by masculine nouns now, then good for him.

I have never taken a "Gender Studies" class in all my years at college, but stuff like you describe makes me wonder what the hell it would be like to take one.

I do remember having to read a paper along that vein for my World History class in high school. The thesis argued that the invention of the printing press led to witch hunts in Europe, with the train of thought preceding as follows:

printing press -> widespread literacy -> exercising "left side of brain" (!) -> valuing logic over feels -> valuing men over women (!!) -> witch hunts

It was the kind of paper sounded pro-feminist in rhetoric but actually had a sexist premise, not to mention a foundation in left/right brain pop-pseudoscience (both of which set my bullshit detector off even back in those dumb teenager days).

And it so happened that both the writer and the teacher handing it out were cishet men. I guess Gender Studies will dumb you down regardless of your actual sex.
 
What the hell did I just read. Why does everyone think they can read 1 or 2 books and have an expert grasp on psychology. :heart-empty:

There's an area in the deep structure of the drain called the smart vagus.
I guess that's the reason my toilet flushes itself?
 
1. Wu responds to a parody Anita Twitter account (She doesn't seem to like it)

2. This is right after she tweeted these to the parody Twitter account. WAAAAAAHH ;_;

3. Another retweet

4. WATCH OUT GUYS RED ALERT

5. lel
 
Twitter was toxic BEFORE GamerGate.

Twitter is the work of evil. It should be a tool to grow your business. Instead the leader of the Wu-Tran Clan is using it to run out of her house whenever someone tells her that's she's not that great.

I hate repeating herself but again, she is spending all this time fucking around on Twitter when she can be working on Revolution Sucky, even use Twitter as a pseudo blog to show the creative process.

If she REALLY wants to empower anyone (which is also a fallacy because she hasn't at all inspired people unless it is training on running the 500 meter dash for all the times she has fled her house), she would do tutorials on modeling, rigging, how to ship a game, or anything. But she's not. She's sitting around playing with her plastic snizz milking GamerGate money when no one cares anymore.
 
....I'm starting a betting pool.

How long before Brianna Wu turns into Hatred guy?
