Yknow what? I’ve been sitting on this for a decade because I’m not into punching laterally but I AM FINE with punching far right lunatics.

Just a handful of short weeks before GamerGate started, Briana Wu, who I spoke to 0 times before this, sends me this *wild* ass email. 🧵

An email from Briana Wu, dated May 3, 2014 (about 3 months before the start of GamerGate)

Hey Zoe,
You I hope this will stay between us. But, I did want to share something with you.
The first time I really heard about you, and Depression Quest, a mutual gamede friend of ours in Boston was complaining about Depression Quest.
They had counseled you to take the money from big pharma. They were talking all kinds of shit about how shortsighted it was of you to not do this - but you'd stood your ground and said no. They thought you were a total fool.
I didn't know about your reality show, but I did read about the aftermath. And what really impressed me about the situation was you did the exact same thing.
A situation was anathema for you, and you said no.
You were willing to burn your bridges with an entire production company over the situation.
You and I are similar people in that we really care about women in games and calling out the sexism in the industry. But, the truth is - I'm a pragmatist. And, if I were being embarrassingly honest with you, I probably would have taken the money from big pharma. And, I would have drank the Mountain Dew on camera.
But, here you are today, and you're doing just fine.

But, here you are today, and you're doing just fine.
You stood your ground, you made your choices and you still won.
There's been a situation at GSK that's been really bad for us and bad for the company. And, I can't go into it just like you can't go into the reality show stuff - but I can tell you, I drank the Mountain Dew on camera for far too long. I have dealt with a really awful, humiliating situation for far too long. It finally ended this week.
I don't know you that well, but - I have been thinking about your integrity a lot lately, and how going forward I need to be less of a pragmatist and more of a Zoe Quinn in leading my company. I want to let you know - that's something I really intend to follow through on.
I hope that doesn't seem emo, but it is true. And, I think when other women in the industry inspire us, l think we should let them know it.
All the best, Bri

Mark, I know you watch my account. I'm gonna say this once:
If you don't delete this straight up made up shit, I'm going to make this a real issue for you. I am not $600k in debt and I know all of your information.

Hey gang, remember to actually install your window wipers instead of crushing the connections and saying “fuck it we ball”
Turns out that’s a great way to fling them into opposite traffic on I-35

I’m fully convinced that Grummz actually died years ago and the online presence is just a shitty ChatGPT program gone rogue

"I'm not saying the delay is because of DEI, but I'm also not saying it's NOT because of DEI." I guarantee you I have people who follow me on here who work for Rockstar or know someone credible at Rockstar that can debunk this fucking nonsense.
