I wished our girlfriend, yes Jon and I are date-dating her, a happy Goth Chick Appreciation Day, yesterday. I thought I'd mentioned we had a girlfriend on FB, from the responses, apparently not. I've mentioned it on twitter, and as other comments noted on my RIDDIT interview this year. If it had been Goth Boy Appreciation Day I'd have wished my husband, and over lovers, current, and past good tidings of their holiday, but it was Goth Chick Appreciation Day, so . . .
No, I'm not bisexual, if I was she wouldn't be the first girlfriend I'd ever had. Jon and I like the term Heteroflexible.
No, I've never tried to date as many people as Anita dates. 5 was my max and it was too many to give emotional support and care, or time, to everyone.
Before someone asks, NO, none of the people I've dated past, or present have been used as basis for my fictional characters - note the word fictional.
Polyamorous means to love more, and yes it is a weird mix of Greek and Latin, but it has become widely accepted, so that's the term. Poly has only one real rule, everyone is supposed to know what everyone is doing, or who they're doing. No lying, no cheating, but just communication of epic proportions. If you're prone to jealousy, please do not attempt poly. If you want to sleep with other people, do not bully your spouse into being poly with you, if you aren't so much poly as just wanting to fuck-about. Please keep your cheating asses off our polyamory, and don't blame the fact you can't keep it in your pants on us. And no, we are not swingers, that's a different alternative lifestyle. What's swinging? Google it. You can google Polyamory, too, but don't believe everything you read. (That goes for anything you research on line.)

And I agree about her awful posts - my point was that she always maintains a veneer of being the totally-oblivious, wronged it's-just-'cos-I-dance-to-a-different-beat!individualist, and openly condoning bullying would be a step too far for that persona. Now, "getting revenge", I can see her condoning. But only so long as she plays the originally-wronged party.
I could be wrong, however. I don't think anyone sporking Danse Macabre back when it first came out could have guessed that she'd start pulling stunts with the "e-specials" and exposing her bile as openly as Shutdown.
...TBH, I'd wonder if she was on drugs if I didn't strongly suspect she'd parade it in her books if she was. I don't care if she's an utter narcissist - I would swear that narcissists don't drop their guard THIS much unless there was an underlying cognitive issue in development. Both her blogs and her books have gotten more and more disjointed and shallow with time, and I'm not sure that's just disinhibition talking.
I don't like speculating about authors' mental health, but I'm honestly getting unnerved.

LKH seems to have shut herself off from anyone who would criticize her in the slightest way. Also, like Anita, she seems not to have any hobbies. Work and sex seem to be her entire life, and that is not healthy.
