Everyone who comes under Milo’s wing seems to have a short shelf life

Four(ish) years ago Milo invited me into his “inner sanctum” and I turned him down

Who the hell knows what would’ve happened if I didn’t? What I can say is that I’d probably be another name on the list.

On Nick Monroe, from a mutual friend.

“He's almost there. Even gammas have a smidge of pride, it would appear. He'll crawl back on his belly, but he has to put up at least a bit of a fight, first. Consider it somewhat of a compliment. If he were to just fly back into your arms, he'd never be able to look you in the eye again. He respects you immensely. He knows he's acted like a child, and that he's made an ass of himself.

He's embarrassed. He wants to come back, but the fuss he's made (at the encouragement of the numbskulls in his "community") has left him way out to sea and totally adrift.

My take: He wants everything you've offered him, but he's now gone from "Nick Monroe is one of the most talented journalists of his generation" to "Jesus, what a whining crybaby!" in your eyes. He's lost your respect. What an awful, awful feeling.”
Don’t mistake this for me being ungrateful

I learned a lot from Milo over the years

But he prefers “the chase” when it comes to me
You love the cat and mouse game.

Nick isn’t worried about what will happen if I take an interest in him. He’s worried about what will happen when I tire of him. He won’t have to wait much longer to find out.

I "learned nothing," huh.

How about the fact that every time you did one of your GamerGate pieces, you loved to tease? You loved to hype it up for the crowd, akin to something out of "The Gladiator"

If you off me, you get rid of one of the most knowledgeable people about GamerGate and the spiraling of political culture over the past five years.

That'd suck for everyone else.
"Begging for handouts"

Maybe it’s just me but I think a $12m investment from one of the smartest people in the country is just ever so slightly different than panhandling for single-digit donations.

I have raised over $20m in total for business ventures that have employed hundreds—and put a president in office.

If only you had someone on hand who knows about such things.
