As you can see, I wanted to start a regular feature the other day. I’m probably gonna do one of these every other day, but I won’t rule out making it daily eventually. I think it’s a good way for people to take the pulse of the community without having to visit Twitter, which I know some of you hate. I have a love/hate relationship with it myself, so I get it.
Plus, it gives us an open thread for you guys to discuss the days topics, which in my opinion, is the best part of the site. So, without further delay, here’s the Blitz:

Just heard someone IRL just say "after that #GamerGate thing you don't trust any reviews online now, do ya?" [pride intensifies]

The problem is that the SJWs trying to fix racism and sexism are so incompetent, they end up making it worse.#GamerGate

Kuchera, Alexander, etc.. We want these people gone, not ethical. They've had the past six months to change. It's not happening. #GamerGate

I’ll be back here in a bit with more posts. As mentioned in that last tweet, tonight at 9PM EST, @TFYCapitalists will be discussing women in gaming, and possibly give us an update on Afterlife Empire. You can check that out here.
