Ah the wonders of a Scarfolk childhood...

From SCARFOLK COUNCIL
DIY was all the rage in the 1970s, but in Scarfolk it wasn't just limited to household repairs and interior decoration. Childless, sterilised adults, many of whom had been specially bred for civic or sacrificial service, decided that unauthorised parenting might prove to be a nice hobby or weekend pastime...

Chuck Tingle is the hero the Hugo awards need!

From BOING BOING
For the second year in a row, a bunch of disgruntled "conservative" sf readers and writers are attempting to destroy science fiction's Hugo Awards by nominating slates of works that are, variously: rabid racist tracts; works by their ideological opponents; tepid military sf; works by bystanders; and weird porn by Chuck Tingle, a master of the form, who has nothing to do with any of this...


Until now. When Tingle -- who publishes "bizarre niche erotica" in great volume -- discovered that his book Space Raptor Butt Invasion had been promoted to the Hugo ballot by spoilers hoping to discredit the award, he sprang into action. He created a new title, especially aimed at the "Puppies" (the two groups who want to kill the Hugos call themselves "Rabid Puppies" and "Sad Puppies" for fantastically tedious reasons you can look up for yourself if you care to): "Slammed In The Butt By My Hugo Award Nomination."


The crowning glory of Tingle's campaign, though, was his announcement that his Hugo Award, should he win it, would be accepted by Zoe Quinn, the reigning bogeywoman of the Gamergate/neoreactionary right. In other words: every time a "Puppy" casts a vote for Tingle's work, they cast a vote for giving Zoe Quinn a podium from which to address the entire World Science Fiction Convention about the importance of diversity and representation in fiction...


Shine on Mr. Tingle- you crazy butt slamming diamond!

I just love how the men are just helpless idiots; completely blameless victims of these seductresses...
