Mr. Tomlinson has just threatened Leslie Varney, a female publisher whom he has been attacking on Twitter from behind a block for more than a year, to be sued into poverty with a lawsuit that will presumably be funded by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
- Mr. Tomlinson's 2021 lawsuit was funded in secret by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, a 501(c)(3) charity, to the tune of $100,000 without the knowledge or consent of their donors or members. They also agreed to pay any sanctions in case he lost (which he did).
- All parties involved signed NDAs so that the general public would never know.
- To this day, SFWA has never acknowledged its funding of the lawsuit, and actively instructs the few people in the know to ignore all inquiries into it.
- Is the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America funding Mr. Tomlinson's lawsuit against the Milwaukee Police? If they are, the general public probably wouldn't know due to their history of funding expensive lawsuits in secret.
- You can use IRS form 3949-A to report SFWA's activity if you reasonably believe that it is illegal for a 501(c)(3) charity to secretly fund frivolous nuisance lawsuits for one of its members.

- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

Yeah I think so...
Anyone in the later 2014 crew, doesn't have an opinion, brother.
How have you been on here so long and still miss references to the show?
You joined in the 90's?
It was around 2013. I never listened to the radio show so can't remember how it came on my radar.
Also 2013, I don't recall why specifically since that was one of the more boring eras of the show, but that's when I started posted in it's subreddit.
Also anyone who joined post 2019 please explain how. I don’t understand what could possibly lead you to O&A then here in that time.
For me I think one of the usual sites I downloaded it from died and I thought reddit might have a link for it and the rest is history.
The ass end of the Reddit era, the sub got a reputation as an almost "post Encyclopedia Dramatic" hub for generic lulz shit. It's up for debate how accurate that actaully was, but on other Reddit board, it was widely recognized as one of the more rambunctious humor forums.
I only started listening to the live show in early 2014, had been listening to the Jasonyeiter comps since late 2013. Saw that nana had gotten fired on the news and google led me to Reddit.

I don't want to sound like a dickhead but I don't like or believe when people claim they've been here for years and never posted until recently.
It reminds me of when I ask a young person if they heard of a band or movie I'll make up and they say they've seen it just to "fit in"
If you really did lurk for 5 years and decide to post out of the blue on a whole different platform, then I applaud you.
If you're lying, then LINGER LONGER.
As for me, I started posting on the sub right around the time I moved from Boston in early 2014 and was looking for other people who have heard of the show that I can discuss it with. It gradually turned to me hating the show, just like everyone else started to hate it.
Receipts exist for me though if you use some of the reddit archive sites you'll see my posts from the OG sub.
Again, take no offense to my views. Unless you're actually lying and feel offended by my pointing it out, of course.

2017 I think, might have been 16.
