This is bri, from silly to pissed off in 30 seconds flat.

You don't know me. You don't know who I am, have never met me in person, will never meet me in person, and if you ever did, I don't think you'd care. I wasn't there. I don't know what happened. But I believe the people who said they were, and who said they do know

Sorry, I have to ask. You are the 2nd person on my flist to refer to something that happened at a SPN convention, but no one is saying what that thing is. Do you have a link to a comm or something I should google? Because now I can't ignore my curiosity any more. Is all this going on in some anonymous meme?

[brihana25]

I'll give you the link to the wank_report about it, because all of the relevant links are in there. And apparently she is running to LJ and trying to get them to shut down anyone who mentions her name, and having at least enough success at it that we're not allowed to mention her any more - http://www.journalfen.net/community/wank_report/518.html?thread=4869638#t4869638

Thank you!

Nobody, too, and I can't say that I know firsthand what happened, either. I can't say exactly how people behaved and what lines were crossed. I can only say that I've seen people express discomfort about what happened at that con, and that I think that should be respected.

[brihana25]

That's what I think, too. They have a right to be honest about what happened and how they felt about it without being made to feel guilty or being threatened into silence.

I appreciate this post.

[brihana25]

Thank you.

[faunaana]

Just to let you know - I, too, have linked this post from my journal.

[brihana25]

Oh, wow, thank you. God, I'm saying that so much right now, but seriously. Thank you.

[mousetrack]

I have linked to this post here. :)

[brihana25]

Oh, well thank you.

Yikes.

I've seen some posts alluding to this incident, but I didn't know anything other than veiled references. I'm with you. Thanks for sharing.

There have been some points today where I was honestly shaking, I was so angry.

I'm supposed to be writing an SG1 story, dang it. I'm supposed to be thinking happy thoughts about Jack and Daniel. But, I thought this was pretty big.

[khek]

It's definitely big. It's also taken up far too much of my time as I started reading some of the posts.

I don't even know what to say. It seems so obvious to me that the con organizers were completely right to make their con safe, in any way they needed to. I guess that anyone who doesn't understand that has never had to consider the safety of a group versus the demands of a self-centered individual.

Good luck with the SG1 story! Maybe it's time to slowly step away from the computer, in favor of the closest DVD player? Watching some interplay between Jack and Daniel might help... I suggest a good, long season 3 viewing is in order!

[brihana25]

And, as luck would have it, I'm writing a Legacy follow-up, so S3 is most definitely in order. Much hurt, much comfort, back when touching and hugging and showing affection for each other was allowed.

*sigh*

I miss my boys sometimes.
