Things in my Tabs

Continuing the vein of the SFWA Bulletin ish, Ann Aguirre has a story about recent sexism in SFF. Delilah Dawson, a steampunk writer, recounts her encounter with an author GOH at some convention. I asked her who it was, she said John Ringo, and who the fuck is John Ringo? Anyway, he's a misogynistic asshole.

Here''s a response to the What Kind Of Asian Are You video. Apparently the guy who made the video just PRETENDS to be a white guy adopted by Japanese people?

N.K. Jemisin posted her GOH speech at CONtinuum! And from there I had to look up the 2006 thing about Slush Bombs... Rose Fox compiled a pretty good list of links and of course there's a post about it at The Angry Black Woman.

Ugh. I first heard of him from this review which gave us the everlasting phrase, "Oh No John Ringo" : http://hradzka.livejournal.com/194753.html?thread=760769#t760769
