"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.
Nah, he just came across as a straight asshole to me. And if I recall right, he did refer to Lynn as “someone in charge” the first time we saw him when she brought those security guards along. My guess is some people thought the “someone in charge” line referred to hotel security, rather than Lynn.
And in this case, he does say “him or her” when he asks for the person in charge, instead of assuming the person is male.
I actually didn’t get that with this guy. I mean, you laid it on thick with the autistic kid last arc, but this guy’s straight out of the dealer’s room. Having had to deal with four or five guys like this, you realize it’s not about you at all. He’s just a nutter with an axe to grind.
“Autistic kid?”
None of the antagonists you could be referring to were intended to be anything other than neurotypical. Maggie, the (I guess now former) VGR head for Bork Con is the only character intentionally canonically written to be on the spectrum.
If it was meant as an insult, that has to stop.
Hey, thank you for this!
Love the chair’s (?) response, calmly call his bluff.
Heck, at this point in the con, offer to give him his table money back if he has to vacate the table. There would be another local artist who would love to fill in a last minute spot.
Might not be a back up depending on the size of the Con, but certainly an option to look into. Worse to worse, blank spots happen, someone can’t show up last minute, or can’t show until late.
We can regularly fill our Dealers Room vacancies with ready locals and/or Artists Alley people, or let people with a half-table expand into the space. Half-priced tables or upgrades go far to filling space.
Will we find out what this dude’s actual problem is or will it be like Terrence (?) where he’s a jerk who’s just a jerk?
Do love that the chair called his bluff. Will remember that in the future 🙂
I suspect that he’s the way he is because his methods tend to work.
…or at least they used to…
Ruth may have competition…
Twits happen – and when they volunteer to go away, by all means wave byebye! 🙂
