![Un-untitled an open letter to zoe quinn from that girl you hate to hate negatorv dear zoe quinn, this isn't industry-related, or if it is, it's marketing advice from some f----- who got laid off because she's too sick to function. I don't care about gaming, game dev, or games journalism, and my only political opinion on what has happened to you recently reflects on all women in audience- reliant fields. you don't deserve the harassment, doxing, and flagrant misogyny you've received. women in exposure-dependent fields are disproportionately targeted for the s--- they do because the rest of the goddamn world still assumes we're some kind of monolithic hive mind and can't understand that we're, like, people, and we make individual decisions. societal pressure is great. but anyway, this is personal. basically, seriously, zoe, I am your f------ target market. Iam a bisexual woman with weird hair and a handful of mental and physical diagnoses that have (thus far) kept me from taking over the world. I am a feminist and an abuse survivor. I am intimately familiar with PTSD, mental illness sexism, and harassment within my field. (my field. I'm not in it anymore. guess why. oh wait, you won't have to, because -) you know all of this s--- because you were all over my tumblr starting early june and not ending til mid-july. and yet: Zoë Quinn and blah blah you tell me she's a good person and s--- great maybe for you 무 7/9, 4:41 pm want to talk about solidarity? Zoë Quinn And now I DETEST a girl Ive never met and I didnt know I had that in me and its not right of me 79, 6:28pm want to talk women in geek fields? want to connect with a member of your target audience? Zoë Quinn but know I resent the everliving f--- out offor this and that will likely never change because, again, this is a f----- up thing to have to deal with from 무 7/9, 4:40pm . some a------ Ive never met nah, you just wanna spew vitriol about a woman you've never met and make sure she never goes near your precious boyfriend. who, it turns out, were willfully endangering [items 10, 11, 20]. is all. She wouldn't bang ne Zoë Qulnn yeah excuse me if don't trust her at all on that whatsoever Eron Gloni PTSD 무 7/9, 4:19pm 口79, 4:19pm you are not excused. you do not speak for me. you do not mangle my story to suit your purposes. you do not redefine and reduce and screw with my life to get what you want. you do not get away with f------ up my friends and insulting me deal with your s---. and, for future reference, don't alienate your target audience sincerely rachel (S", green line, and other sobriquets) This is my friend Rachel(S from the logs).
