#germergoat

So I'm pretty sure someone (accidentally, I hope?) misinterpreted my anti-germergoat shirt as somehow being pro-germergoat.  ...Or something.  And then immediately reblogged it with disparaging comments based on that.

*exasperated sigh*  Goddammit, Tumblr.

Finally. A Videogame Site Just For Men.

If men’s rights activists and pickup artists are good for one thing, it’s their occasional candor. (Unless you’re a woman.) They don’t mince words, and they say what they mean. (Unless they are talking directly to a woman.) They are a dark subtext embodied and acted out; a set of bitter, confusing and confused feelings rendered into crude guides and blunt rhetoric. They are a not-at-all fascinating group with a totally fascinating way of talking about themselves. And they provide, for the rest of the world, statements like this:

I’m starting a video game site even though I haven’t played video games seriously since the year 2000 (Starcraft was my jam). I don’t even play mobile games. I won’t blow smoke up your ass by pretending I’m a gamer or have a deep commitment in furthering game technology. My only commitment is with helping men. I aim to protect the interests of heterosexual Western males, a category I’m in. The far-left is trying to censor and criminalize masculine behaviors that are normal. They want to relabel consensual sex as “rape” and relabel innocent flirting as “harassment,” and as I learned with #gamergate, they’ve successfully infected the gaming industry and gaming journalist sites by damaging the very nature of gaming development to fit their extreme political agenda. So while I don’t play video games, the idea of starting a pro-#gamergate site is compatible with my overall mission.

This is an excerpt from the mission statement for Reaxxion, a site about video games started by Roosh Valizadeh. It’s also a usefully blunt formulation of the motivation behind a burgeoning new category of media, the other leaders of which are too cautious, too ambitious, or too savvy to define so openly.

Oh no, I lied, sort of!

I recently brought These Guys back for one last, horrible hurrah. (Here on tumblr, and here on twitter.) This isn't an EEGRA comic but it would have been if EEGRA were still around.

Generic brand, non-EEGRA Hilarity Comics will begin following this three-page Special Event.
