20 More Brilliant Insights From #HowToSpotAFeminist

So now we’re going to be all Little Red Hen and deny people from participating in a thing if they didn’t directly create it?

I’m gonna say yes, since that attitude is the backbone of Gamergate. Erroneously, but still.

I can’t name any of the members of X-Force, but can any of these schmoes name all the campers in Lumberjanes? No?

Not only can I do that, despite never meeting or interacting with the book’s authors/creators, I can talk intelligently about why the camp matron is probably named after the absolutely brilliant comic creator Megan Gedris who gave us the thoroughly awesome I was Kidnapped By Lesbian Pirates from Outer Space and the thoroughly (but disturbingly, if you think about it) sexy Darlin It’s Betta Down Where It’s Wetta.

Also, Gedris created, writes and draws Yu-Me which is supposed to be important because critical acclaim and character development and some shit. But really, how can you top Lesbian Pirates from Outer Space? How????

@Buttercup Q Skullpants

X-Force I don’t know. But I made a family tree for the Marvel version of the Asgardian royal family once (and a flowchart explaining Loki).

…

Oh wait… Loki is fangirl bait so he (they?) probably don’t count as true comic knowledge.

@Robert

Yeah. For comicbooks “just roll with it” is my motto. Especially in the case of the Aesir… and since some years and additions. For example: as currently stands there are ten realms.

I needed to make one as this is the 3rd Loki Marvel has (and I’ll go with they as pronoun because of various reasons), also things like “Loki’s guilt/subconscious run away with their power to play supervillain and make them confess.” (Young Avengers 2013) make perfect sense around them somehow.

Before Wolverine… well, that means original X-Men. Most of my knowledge of that part of the ‘verse comes from the Claremont era. ^^;

I don’t work in a skyscraper, but the building I work in was completed before I was born. As was the house I live in. Do I get an exemption? I didn’t help build the car I drive? What should I do?

Brooked, I think (and I could be wrong) that the tweeter saw/heard about slut walks and did the usual manuresphere lack of research into what those are for and extrapolated from there.

Of course the Elliot Rodger pic was heinous but I didn’t want to give that fucker any more attention than he deserves. Thank you all for the cute animal brain bleach

@Virgin Mary: Does dog hair count? I don’t have a cat but my (blond) dog sheds on my (often dark) clothes

@Matilda: Look at that, we both have Roald Dahl names! Granted my character is supposed to be a “bad” one but I never did see her that way.

@Kat
I think it would be a better system if the people who put in the most physical effort got the most reward. Paper pushing is already desirable because you don’t have to work as hard physically but it gets rewarded more than the less desirable labor? Of course some people hate paper pushing and some people love manual labor, but I’ve always felt like the system is backwards in how labor is rewarded.
