Davis Thewlis is magnificent. The woman who played Rose Walker, though...I could never forget she was acting. The series often felt rushed to me, even when it matched the comic perfectly.

I am very strongly on the side of the death of the author: once it's out of the author's hands, it belongs to everybody Re: Calliope. It's not a coincidence that's where I stopped watching the TV series because I knew what was coming. No thank you

Yes. My brother and I used to walk downtown to buy his comics. We didn't hang around other fans or go to conventions. I don't care to hear about author biographies because it's always post hoc criticism. "Oh that explains why he wrote X" is never useful in understanding the work

Suggestion for folks asking for mutual aid support (based on years of experience): There's no need to say you're embarrassed or ashamed or hate to have to ask. That's exactly how capitalism wants you to feel. And it wants you to reinforce the idea that asking for help is shameful.

It's like the difference between misandry and misogyny One is a small bigotry, like disliking dentists. Hurts nothing but feefees the other is an enforcement of a power structure designed to keep certain people in their place

I think you were misgendered, but I appreciate that you understand the distinction. so thank you I have to fight it a lot, to always risk being That Kind of Trans Person. (If I forget to wear my pronoun pin in public I will just eat it from strangers, but anyone who knows me I have to get on it)

Agreed. I found it weird the denial didn't come from his PR people. "believe victims" doesn't mean "believe random strangers on the internet" But there does seem to be independent corroboration and it has me leaning the same way you are

I tried googling and all I got was just repetition of the initial allegations. So I was asking here for more information: why should I believe someone I'd never heard of?

And I got it, thanks to nacl.sh, who went to the trouble to not assume I was acting in bad faith.

No, I was looking for more than just one source -- it's kinda suspicious that Tortise media said Gaiman denied it and not Gaiman's spokesperson -- and I got and additional one before I know who you're looking for and I ain't it
