Shocking. Truly shocking. On the heels of the robust Alt-Furry community gaining prominence through an article telling their side of the story, or at least a mostly unbiased one, Vice magazine has upped the ante, gaslighting and making it clear that– what should I dub them– normie-Furries should do their duty and attack them, similar […]

Sure, I’m Making It Up
Those of you who have been following me on facebook, gab and here, might have seen how I did a little investigative journalism last week about UC Berkeley and Milo, and how they gave a response citing there were “no reported injuries” in their attempt to damage control and suppress media interest in the terrible […]
Are You Tired of Winning?
I’m still not tired. Working hard on editing my Steampunk book right now, but I’m gonna take a break to show you this image: Yes, that is my book, and yes, it is currently selling better on Amazon in Space Opera than BayCon’s Guest of Honor, who has a TV show that just came back […]
Hi There!
Yes, imagine me saying “Hi There!” in that voice. I’m Jon Del Arroz! You might have heard of me from such blogs as: Superversive SF, Nick Cole, Declan Finn, or Vox Day. You may have also heard of me from such blogs as Mary Robinette Kowal and Jennifer Brozek.
Si vis pacem, para bellum!
Thank you everyone for such a warm response yesterday. I appreciate all the love and support more than you know. Feel free to keep in touch too as I’ll have your back in these situations as well as best as I am able. I’ll try to get out 2 posts today: one on responses to my […]
Bringing Home The Baycon (Or What I Learned From Being Blackballed)
A couple of weeks ago, I waited for daisyslot promotions before adding credit to my account to play my favorite slots games, then,I found out that I had been blackballed from speaking at my own home convention, a place I’ve loved and cherished for almost a decade. This was a wanton act of discrimination, and […]
Is xXx: The Return of Xander Cage The Greatest Film Of All Time?
I’m struggling to conceive of one that’s even remotely in its league. I sat in the theatre last night with a total of 5 people in there, and a friend and myself laughed our butts off the entire time (and got some angry stares for doing so from the other 3 people in the theatre).
Innovation and Singularity with Author Doug Sharp
We open this week of blogs with something a little bit different. I’ve done written interviews before, but sparingly, and this time I spoke with science fiction author Doug Sharp. He’s not a name you’re likely to have heard much about just yet, but he write such innovative, unique fiction that it’s a breath of […]
Get Spaced!
I’ll be on the GeekGab Podcast at 2:30 PM PST talkin’ bout space and whatever else these fine gents ambush me with:
#Milogate: UC Berkeley Has A Statement
Just received a response from the UC Berkeley Media department. My original ask was this: Pretty simple. Should be a quick response? Right? UC’s response with my commentary in bold:
When Journalists Refuse to Journal (#MiloGate)
I’m noting a trend in events, where if you go across the nets, tv, or whatnot that the mainstream fake news seems to avoid any sort of confrontational commentary to their narrative.
The “Trolling” Accusation
I find this topic fascinating. Over the last year or so, I’ve noticed more and more that when someone comes and defends an attack on one’s group from a post, that more often than not, there’s an attempt made to signal to folk “don’t listen to this person!” by an accusation that the person is […]
