So... John. Here you say your $3K/mo in Internet begging money "funds a dedicated employee for handling harassment". This "dedicated employee", according to the above tweets, goes by the handle "@gsxoffice".

On your website, you identify this person as "Natalie O'Brien" (fairly generic name with no credentials or photo, and coincidentally has "Brien" in "her" name) and give "her" the title of "Administrator".

Then when you gathered up your toys and ran away the other day, this "Natalie" tweeted:

So, contrary to your claim that this "employee" is paid $3K/mo. solely for handling "harassment", we now see "Natalie" retweeting things promoting your media coverage and pleas for support for future appearances at SXSW.

Seems like the team at Patreon should be made aware of your deliberate misrepresentation of how those funds are used.

On a side note, GiantSpaceKat is a really fucking dumb name for your """professional""" company. It sounds like it was ripped off of some old Deviantart page from 2006.

They actually mentioned GG almost exactly by name in the leaked version of Beast.

It was hilarious.

I don't have the splat leak on hand, but good god was it awful. It was basically 'Otherkin are the bestest things ever and everyone from the other lines except Hunters and Demons like them. Also if Mage contradicts the otherkin's lore, ignore it and sink it.' and had people ('Heroes') who reacted negatively to the frankly monstrous and horrific characters as 'evil'.

It's a really hilarious read- basically everything wrong with New World of Darkness and modern White Wolf. A bit of googling would probably bring it up.

I know what you meant, I just meant the opposite. That is to say, since the Beasts are supposed to be the BAD guys within the universe [but not the context] and all, and considering their stereotypical Hero is a fedora-tipping 'm'lady' who is whatever they want...

Or something. Beast is ultimately garbage thanks to the editors being stupid. [I guess I shouldn't have high hopes for Deviant.]

Anyone who worked under Wu must be mentally strong to deal with a boss like him.

Actually, a couple of her former co-workers who worked on Revolution 60 have come forward after Wu fired them. Basically... working with her is shit and she'll steal your ideas and promote them as her own.

Show of hands. Who's surprised?

Dynastia doesn't count.
