she showed up after the first wave of 2000s feminist blogs (say, Feministe, Feministing, Shakesville, Jezebel). Right in the “OMG, remember Sassy” era, right at the dawn of tumblr, when it looked to be the mainstream important discourse forum twitter became. She also had a group blog (remember group blogs!), “Tiger Beatdown”

I noticed her circa like 2009 scrapping with Freddie de Boer

She showed up too late to cash in. She was in the Brooklyn scene, but not at the dawn.

She would get really vicious but amazingly good at it, and would be really intense, CAPITALIZING PHRASES LIKE THIS, and then like two weeks later she would apologize. Later she announced she was bipolar and that led me to realize I was too and how to handle it.

She ran with an intersectional posse before it was cool, gay man Garland Gray and trans s.e.smith(?) and a bunch of black women before that took off - karnythia, so_treu, blackamazon

Her biggest thing on here was #MooreAndMe, she was hypomanic when Michael Moore was trying to rally the left around Julian Assange (then representing the hope of the Internet defeating legacy states, accused for the purpose of extradition of rape) and she spoiled it, which I do not think was for the best

Since then she kinda cruises on her reputation as a twitter scourge but she hasn’t really built it any other way, she gets occasional book contracts but once wrote an essay about how that was the dwindling of Shulamith Firestone, too
