Neil Gaiman is back.

Neil Gaiman claims sexual assault allegations are result of ‘smear campaign’

Author says accusations ‘spread and amplified’ by people more interested in ‘outrage and getting clicks’

being a hater is so fun until you see someone who is a hater 80% of the time and then you're like christ i hope i dont sound like that person and you stay on your best behaviour for 3 days

man having your life even a little bit together will really make you realize how chronically sleep-deprived and poorly fed and under-enriched everyone is and then when they turn to you to implicitly agree that that's just the natural state of existing you feel like the asshole for being like "actually I think you might benefit from eating breakfast regularly and picking up a new hobby"

artist dude: Women are so insane and incomprehensible and mysterious...their ways are fascinating to me A regular human being and every time I write about them I delve into an alien world, fascinating and frightening

women in real life: Hey man how's it going

swinging a bat at a hornets nest maybe but i think the world would be a better place if more people stopped to consider how “sexual abuse victim” is actually one of the most common and broad groups on the planet and that by (usually very condescendingly) talking about survivors as a monolith who all want and need the same things you’re inevitably going to end up hurting somebody

going for long walks alone is probably the closest thing we have to a cure for the human condition

principles that consistently annoy people:

there is no such thing as evil

no one should be able to decide who deserves to live or die

no one is inherently bad because of where they were born

[natequarter]

i see these principles are annoying people

10000 YEAR OLD ROCK ART OF GIRAFFES FOUND IN LIBYA LET'S GO

[kaylmao]

YES!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lilacchao]

of note: 95% of libya is desert, and giraffes are not found there! but this predates not just the libyan desert, but the entire sahara desert it's a part of! giraffes aren't found there any more and this is a memory of a time when things were giraffier

also apparently this rock art dates across multiple periods spanning thousands of years? but i couldn't find much detail on that so i can't give specifics

but yeah, this isn't just a memory of giraffes, but of giraffes now absent encountered by people just 2000 years (the difference between the late roman republic and today) out of the ice age, in a climate unfamiliar to any of the hundred billion people born since the desertification of the sahara drove the ancient egyptians to the nile, near the start of the agricultural revolution

the time between this and the birth of the sahara was nearly as long as the time between the birth of the sahara and now, in which all recorded history is contained, and all languages we can recognise at all - the language and culture of these people would be totally alien to current libyans, twice the difference between the oldest european language and english, predating all but libya's mountains!

and we have pictures of giraffes of the time! what a beautiful gift from such a distant past
