I think the real issue with Wu's "work" is he doesn't really give a shit about creating a decent game. He just wants to wear the moniker of "game designer" upon his sleeve and is perfectly content to let others do the legwork. Meanwhile, the idiots that are content to do the work for him are only doing so because they couldn't find employment elsewhere and this provides them an in to the game design industry. So these idiots give Wu the credibility he wants, Wu can act like he has an semblance of talent, and then he can use that as another springboard down the path to true professional victimhood.

I feel sorry for the people that actually did the work for Rev 60 though. Definitely would leave that little tidbit out when looking for work in the video game industry unless I wanted to make interactive novels for the rest of my days.

they'll be that old man telling scary stories about local legends to tourists who stop in at his gas station who are bold enough, or sympathetic enough to listen.

"And legend has it that the goblin snuck under his bed at night..."
"And when he laid down, the goblin slowly arose..."
"And the goblin said, soft as foggy morning sunlight, as the boy looked into the beast's eyes..."

I just saw a positive story on distractify about the people supposedly defacing the protein billboards in the UK.

Unfortunately they're going to meet an even weirder persyn. But I guess it is part of the entertainment package?

She can put up a professional front under the right circumstances so I'm guessing they'll just assume she's another ugly face in the room. Though it's already highly unprofessional to exaggerate the nature of your speaking engagements the way she has so maybe I'm being optimistic. I can't possibly imagine what on earth she has to talk about that would be of interest to these guys, swatting maybe but she probably has about 45 seconds worth of relevant input on the subject. But who knows I don't understand the stuffier infosec types at all.
 
Soylent chugging and now Apple Watch wearing, for someone who spends so much time whining about "white dudes" she sure does act like a rich white San Fran dudebro a lot.

Oh yeah, that company is glorious for not budging to the SJWs. Smart move as well, it's not like the whiners belong to the demographic that would buy their products anyways.

I suspect half of these women would accuse that girl of being anorexic if her muscle tone wasn't totally visible. Anyhow distractify will never get another stupid facebook click from me ever again.
 
Isn't GamerGate a really scary hacker? I'd be afraid of GamerGate if I were Massachusetts. He might even hack the secret server at 127.0.0.1.
