Coloring your hair like this is still retarded. I don't say so because I think rainbow hair iss unattractive, mind you, I say it's retarded because it damages your hair.Meanwhile in Chuck's closet:https://twitter.com/ChuckWendig/status/1063929078426800130 https://archive.fo/AZoWu

Mer, hair grows - people "going bald early" through too much hairdye is a myth - though it can all break off from too much dying, but it will grow back unless the dye sinks into the roots, which is next to impossible.
I'd say it's more exceptional because it must look like shite after a week or so; stupid color dyes never last long, and they'd wash out at different speeds, so before long it would just look grayish and crap.

Woah woah hold up, is Chuck speaking over women? Is he presuming to MANSPLAIN about the motivations behind women choosing a particular hair color?

Stay in your lane, Chuck. You need to LISTEN and BELIEVE. Why don't you signal boost WoC posts about this topic instead of talking over them! Don't you know there are different kinds of hair out there that don't work as well with hair coloring? Not very intersectional of you, Chuck. Also, what do you mean by "you see a bunch of well-meaning dudes"? Did you just assume their gender? Are you saying that FTM men aren't going to have an opinion on this? That's transphobic as hell, Chuck! Why can't you be a better ally? I'm not here to educate you or perform the emotional labor to help you understand why this whole tweet is incredibly problematic. Why aren't you using your platform to lift up the voices of the marginalized and help them share their opinions? Typical patriarchal white male trying to tell PoC and WoC what to think!

Something I've noticed with folks like Brianna Wu, Becca Gerber and our buddy Chuck is that they only get a handful of likes or retweets for all of their posts. Basically, no one gives a shit. Jake Alley is a great example of that.
I suppose the Farms gives them the most attention of anyone in their little bubbles.

Franzen's rules for writing mocked on Twitter
16 November 2018
For a man who has no time for social media, author Jonathan Franzen has sent the Twittersphere into a frenzy with his ten commandments for novelists.
A number of writers have commented online in response to the American novelist's rules for aspiring writers.
Published in the Literary Hub, those rules - critics say - appear to hit out at libraries and imply that anyone who has a good internet connection at work is unlikely to write decent fiction.
Writer Jodi Picoult tweeted she was "delighted" to have broken all of Franzen's rules. With almost 30 novels under her belt, she says his rules don't work for her.
Other writers have come up with their own lists - sometimes tongue-in-cheek - to help would-be scribes. Stand-up comedian and actor Patton Oswalt created seven rules of his own.
Author Chuck Wendig tweeted his own parody, which includes advising people to: "Put words after words, make sure most of them are real words and not ones you made up".
Franzen's 10 Rules for Novelists
In the week that a new book of his essays, The End of the End of the Earth, is published, Franzen has managed to get everyone talking about him on a medium he isn't even on.
- The reader is a friend, not an adversary, not a spectator.
- Fiction that isn't an author's personal adventure into the frightening or the unknown isn't worth writing for anything but money.
- Never use the word then as a conjunction - we have and for this purpose. Substituting then is the lazy or tone-deaf writer's non-solution to the problem of too many ands on the page.
- Write in third person unless a really distinctive first-person voice offers itself irresistibly.
- When information becomes free and universally accessible, voluminous research for a novel is devalued along with it.
- The most purely autobiographical fiction requires pure invention. Nobody ever wrote a more autobiographical story than The Metamorphosis.
- You see more sitting still than chasing after.
- It's doubtful that anyone with an Internet connection at his workplace is writing good fiction.
- Interesting verbs are seldom very interesting.
- You have to love before you can be relentless.
But he's no stranger to controversy. When his book The Corrections was chosen to feature in Oprah Winfrey's book club, he derided her selection of his novel and was subsequently disinvited from appearing on her show.

However, Franzen's fans have defended his list.
One Twitter user wrote: "There aren't plenty of writers as good as Franzen. And the ones I can think of... nope, mostly not on twitter. Or the internet at all".
And author Sandra Newman thinks much of what Franzen has to say in his tips are actually useful.
"I love making fun of writing advice. But I feel we should do it from a place of humility," she tweeted.
"We give advice because we care. That caring somehow tends to turn into self-importance. On examination, it's almost always vacuous. This isn't being Franzen. It's being human."

Chuck's criticism of rule 3 is especially funny, since he can't see with blinders on that he's guilty of shit rhythm and pacing thanks to writing for Young Adults in tweet form for a decade. Chuck is the king of clumsy sentence-making and writing awkwardly.

Twitter truly is a magnet and den for spoiled brats and unwarranted self-importance. Just when I think it can't get any worse, they always manage to prove me wrong. Like that one Marvel/DC comics writer who posted pics of his own anus to "piss off haters". I can only hope Wendig does something even more exceptional to drive away what little appeal he has left.
Seriously even tumblr at its worst never reached such high levels of exceptionalism (they did their best though), and its only made worse due to Twitter being far larger than tumblr could ever hope to be.

Having read his list, I have seen much much worse - no. 1 is stellar advice even if it is a tad obvious. Maybe that’s why all these twitter spergs are making fun of it, seeing as they always view their audience as witnesses to their greatness.

Ironically, his tweet itself is an example of incredibly awkward writing, misuse of ellipses, and unnecessary verbiage even at tweet length.

They are screeching autistically about it because the sci-fi/fantasy/YA/RPG/comics clique Chuck is part of is probably one of the most circle-jerking cesspits of mediocrity in recent creative media history. Their entire reason for existence as a group is to ensure that those who are part of this in-crowd by way of being a generous rich friend or extremely tight slit/manslit are given awards and fawning coverage despite their work being sub fanfiction tier in most cases, and to aggressively persecute and sabotage anyone who refuses to kiss the ring.
This is why 99% of their effort is dedicated to what Brianna Wu so kindly calls "backchannels" with various media outlets, z list celebs, and anyone dumb or spineless enough to capitulate under the implied threats of "be such a SHAME if you didnt tow the line given how those who dont jump through our hoops tend to be outed as disgusting neo nazi scum..." or such.
Basically its remeniscent of how early hollywood cliques would unite to ensure that everyone else had to bow down and accomadate their stated dogmas of morality and decency, and relentlessly persecuted those who did not submit not out of any genuine belief in these dogmas but due to the fact that those who resisted were a threat to their own continued prestige and wealth in the industry.
Older and more established/mainstream successful writers who have enough fame and status and fandom to sustain themselves tend to attract their ire the most unless they have explicitly bowed down to the faux woke schtick the clique has latched on to

Alright so I looked at this Sebela guy from last page and his Twitter is literally a dozen pictures of his dog’s anus. I thought this guy was backhandedly insulting Wendig because who wouldn’t but no he’s a “self proclaimed SJW” who writes comics about the black wyminz.
