dancing on my cast away dreams

[rhivolution]

Seriously, I think that yours truly or anyone else out there in fandom land interested in social justice could be the fail police, and it would be a full-time job, but SORRY NO SPOONS. Suffice it to say, at the moment, I do not have anything to say about the massive trans* and genderfail fuckup that is the latest to come out of fandom.

Except that:
- The complete lack of apology and massive defensive idiocy by the author makes me want to vomit.
- I feel a bit numb. Not being angry is a bad sign.
- You know, honestly, while fail does happen across the scope of fandom, why does this keep cropping up in RPS of late? Are the answers difficult ones like what Vito and Thoracopagus were saying this week? (see Primer post for those links.) I must chew.

Collecting links, though. Please be warned that there are assault triggers in the author's comments and possibly in the posts due to discussion.

I got nothing that comes to mind about that author's flounce other than GTFO, and lose your way back here.


Comparing her little butt hurt feelings to sexual assault? I mean come on now.
