The Stupidest Political Scandal of the Season (So Far)
Seriously, why the hell does anyone care if a candidate for the US Congress in Florida does vampire LARP?
An attorney challenging first-term Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL) moonlights as a live-action vampire role-player, according to a Florida political news site.Seriously.
SaintPetersBlog on Tuesday detailed Jake Rush's involvement in the Mind's Eye Society, a national community of live-action role-players. Rush played a host of supernatural characters -- “Chazz Darling" and “Staas van der Winst" were just two of his alter-egos -- and kept up an active presence on the Camarilla Wiki Project, a Wikipedia-like website that allowed role-players to share content.
Business Insider also reported that Rush appears to have held a prominent position with a Florida-based group called the "Covenant of the Poisoned Absinthe," which stages "an assortment of games from White Wolf's selection, including Vampire: The Masquerade, Changeling: The Lost, and Mage: The Awakening." White Wolf publishes live-action role-playing games for the Mind's Eye community.
Why does anyone give a f%$# about this?
