Agreed. There is no logical reason to disagree with them because if you aren’t getting one it doesn’t concern you. And if you let anything dictate your morals (e.g. religion or politics) then you’re a moron and if you’re against it because you’re bigoted then you just don’t deserve respect.
I’m sorry, I can’t get around the fact that there is absolutely no reason not to support gay marriage. Even if you agree with the crude Biblical interpretation that homosexuality is a sin, there are still no Biblical dictates specifically against gay marriage. Let your God “sort them out” after they die. Bigotry is the only possible reason to be against gay marriage, and trying to make your bigotry the law of the land makes you a bad person in my eyes.
(Incidentally, the biblical passages against homosexuality are open to interpretation. There are those who convincingly argue that the passages are only referring to homosexual relationships that occur under circumstances of prostitution.)

I fall smack-dab in the middle
The more submissions I receive about angry parents, the more I find myself thinking about the proper ways to express anger on social media. Personally, I try not to express it at all, because like most people, I don’t process my anger intellectually before speaking. I just open my mouth and let…

A lot of people seem grumpy about my latest comic about online gaming as a girl.
I wasn’t implying that girls suck at games. I was implying two things:
- When girls play, often times no one takes them seriously.
- If they screw up, often times the room is filled with lonely dudes who say things like “LOL that’s okay! Will you marry me?” If I screw up I get eviscerated.
In short: a terrible female gamer gets away with way more than a terrible male gamer (like me).
This came from my recent escapades playing Left4Dead online.Again, I meant no ill toward lady gamers.

I know that a lot of people have talked about this already. Unfortunately, I spend most of my life being late to the party. I operate on Bourke time everywhere, y’all!
You know, I can see where Matthew is coming from in this comic. Really, I can. I can even see where the humour is in it. It is frustrating seeing double standards in any setting.
Sure, I don’t think I have ever experienced this in my gaming time (when I set people on fire, they get pissed off. And then ridicule me about it for EVER. There’s a good reason my shooting abilities are a running joke with friends. And a good reason I have been outright abused by randoms), but I have seen it happen.
HOWEVER. I think the ‘tone’ of the girl’s speech is what gets most people. Not the reaction of the ‘males’ on the other end of the game. Basically, women are portrayed as people who play up the bimbo factor to get away with sucking. Which I don’t ever see happen. The only women who talk like that gaming, are women who talk like that in real life. It’s certainly not something we all do. Gaming, like everything else in the fricking universe, is not ruled by a stereotype ridden gender binary.
Kudos to Matthew for apologising for this comic. And MASSIVE kudos for the $1000 donation he made to Women Against Abuse.

Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy tote bags, in natural “walking” and black “monster” versions. These will be available in Japan for 1,890 yen ($23) each. So cute!
I’m so disappointed that I didn’t get to check out the US version of Theatrhythm at PAX East. I’m disappointed that I didn’t have an appointment; I’m disappointed that I didn’t have time to wait in line; I’m vaguely (not really) disappointed that the people didn’t just get out of the way of a person who clearly Really Wanted to Play Theatrhythm.
