How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.

As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.

Neil Gaiman Seeks $500,000 From Accuser Caroline Wallner

The author says Wallner broke her NDA by sharing her story with the media, including with New York Magazine.

He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.

He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.

Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.

people foolishly dismiss desserts and treats as having no nutritional value when they actually are necessary for refilling your sanity stat. to prove my point please observe the emotional stability of the next person you meet who doesnt let themselves ever eat any form of dessert

[Image ID: Text reading: Men's rights activists often cite the first time they realized it's a woman's world. They call these "red pill" moments, after the scene in The Matrix when the main character is faced with the decision to swallow a red pill and recognize the true nature of the world or take a blue pill and continue living a like. For Elam, that revelation came at age 13, when his mother tried to force him to take his diarrhea medicine. /End ID]

I think I've said this before but even if the Doctor was real and I somehow met them, I wouldn't be a companion. At most my brother would be a companion and I would get to hear so many outrageous stories about adventures he went on while I'm chilling at home like. Ok. Cool. Not quite sure you're not making this all up but also there's no reason for you to be making this up so um. Yeah. Cool. Maybe I would get to go on one pity adventure or accidental adventure though.

[liebelesbe]

Do you think you would be a companion in a universe where Doctor Who is real AND you meet the Doctor?

yes!

no, but I might know one of the companions

no.

nuance?

doesn't matter how realistic it is, but what do you feel deep in your soul?

[liebelesbe]

No is winning... I should have made two different responses for "no bc i don't want to" and "no, i would want to but i just don't think the Doctor would choose me"

New scam is in. A fake tumblr support account will @ you and stress you out to go and do "action required" stuff. DO NOT click on links. This is not support. Be safe

There’s a quality that certain books/movies/TV shows have that leads me to say, “Yeah, I can see people making fanfiction of that.” It’s something to do, I think, with how tight the story is, how much feels open-ended or like it could be elaborated on.

Something like Breaking Bad, for example, has low squiggability (that’s what I’m calling this quality). It’s tightly written, the characters are consistent, there’s little left to interpolate or extrapolate. Obviously, people DO write fanfic of Breaking Bad, but it still has a low squiggability score. Whereas something like Supernatural has a high squiggability score. Fantasy and science fiction often have high squiggability scores. This suggests squiggability could also be related to worldbuilding and potential for people to borrow a premise or setting.

And sometimes you’ll read or watch something and you’ll say, “Ah, low squiggability,” and then you’ll open tumblr and find out that everyone else seem to think its squiggability was very high indeed.

conceptually the idea that the tullys privately decided jaime was gay after ignoring-lysa-and-twirling-his-hair-at-brynden-gate is really really funny. like lysa honey don’t be upset it wasn’t your fault i’ve never even seen him look at a girl. oh he joined the kingsguard? so he never has to get married or father children? (meaningful glance) good for him. i suppose. wasn’t until the clash stannis gossip girl blast that they considered an alternative theory

[maastrichtiana]

Stannis getting a reputation for being a raging homophobe among the smallfolk, joined a weird fire cult, accused Jaime of incest, killed Renly a week later, the riverlanders start sewing hate has no home here banners,

if i did my research correctly (and by research i looked it up super quickly and not in depth at all) he would return like 20 to 30 years after he left, but for him it would feel like only around 4 years bc he was in a coma for half of the journey and also bc of relativity. so keep that in mind.
