Apparently, jerks on the Internet threw a poo poo fit because Mockingbird was wearing a T-shirt that said "ask me about my feminist agenda".

The book has now been cancelled (no idea on the cause/effect, but I seriously doubt the jerks are the cause), and the writer is talking about how lovely comics fans on Twitter are. :(

I'll say this again: Quinnipiac is Trump's best of the major pollsters other than maybe CNN, but I'd put Quinnipiac more R friendly.

we should call them "the presidents clinton" to piss off the right imo

close second to "first lord" for basically the same reason

though really if we just called him "old bill" that'd make me personally happy

Parody is great. The problem is that the idiotic Trump "parody" accounts are most commonly seen because people get tricked into retweeting them as if they're the real thing, and they have deliberately misleading usernames to further that goal. It's the same as all those terrible onion imitators that get passed around like they're real articles that nobody laughs at; the whole point is to troll people into believing it.

South Park just did it last week:

quote:

Cut to an Airport Hilton displaying on its sign, “Welcome PTS Insurance Group and Rape Victims Anonymous” which we soon learn is where the troll group is having their meeting (they’re pretending to be the rape victims group. How ironic). Gerald explains to his fellow trolls that trolling isn’t so much about the person you initially make fun of but the people who come to their defense. He claims that those people get “So self righteous that another group of people will find them totally annoying”.  The trolls plan to use this domino effect to troll all of Denmark.

Comics are actually kinda like TV shows in that that are generally renewed in 6-12 issue chunks and are just called cancelled when they aren't renewed. #8 was already gonna be the last issue long before this debacle, making it even more mystifying that assholes made this into a crusade against skeletons.

Because it's mostly been a boy's club since its inception, and there's losers who don't want diversity, because, uh, political correctness is destroying society.
