Lady Bits By Liana Kerzner - I ask some tough questions about women in video games! You provide the answers! It's a discussion with you - and it starts here! - http://kck.st/2prLCVi
Hey, @slimeportal , @takashi0 , @gamergate-news , uh... @tenaflyviper ? And anyone else who is interested. Y’wanna get some good games journalism that actually celebrates gamers and provides (actually) good critique from a feminist perspective?
Well then, you might be interested in this.
She has already reached her goal with 22 days left, though she hasn’t yet hit her stretch goals.
Here are some examples of her work, If you think you need more information about her:
(On recent Youtube controversies)
(On Mass Effect: Andromeda)
(Talking to an apparent HR Guru Rex Conner)
(A long conversation with actual game dev Troy Leavitt, most recent position as head of Avalanche Studios - developers of Disney Infinity)
(A series she did called A Gamer’s Guide to Feminism, which she mentions in the Kickstarter ad)
And it won’t let me put more videos up even though I have two left, (both of which are the start of two separate series talking about Gamergate’s Favorite Person, /sarcasm> one where she talks about how said person made her want to quit writing about video games, and the other about how that person indirectly gave her hope for the future of video games (after criticizing said person in the previous series). No, I won’t be directly naming this person, they have received far too much attention already. Anyway here are a couple links to those series.

And here’s a podcast she’s doing with ReviewTechUSA:

Only five episodes so far, but it seems like a pretty darn good podcast, so I thought I’d throw it in.
I guess just give it a thought, if nothing else it’s something to keep an eye on.
