Neil Gaiman: So many. — Subium • Bluesky web client

So many.

FYI: another @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com imposter, this time on FB! **shakes head**

I'm slightly confused they chose to list "film director" as profession. Your range of artistic endeavours is impressive, but I don't think you ever directed a film, correct?

I directed two short films. And learned that I’m not a film director.

Ah, thank you for answering. Whoever that impostor is, he needed to dig a bit to unearth that.

"A Short Film About John Bolton" isn't bad, I used to own it on .... was it VHS or DVD? It's about John Bolton the painter/artist, not the asshole right wing Republican.

Thank you. I was proud of both of the films I made. But I'd rather write, and work with a good director.

Trying to imagine the series of events that would lead to Neil directing a film about John Bolton the neocon.

I learned that you directed two short films and so you are a director

but as we know, Neil Gaiman does no social media

The world could use more people like Neil Gaiman and less people pretending online to be Neil Gaiman.

There are your army, inspired by you after you defeated their leader. Now, gathered around you in varying degrees of imitation, they eagerly learn as you teach the ways of the fountain pen, quiet and precise… No, wait, that’s the end of “The Dark Knight Returns.” Never mind. These are just jerks.

Sincerest form of flattery, etc

The button eyes give them away.

Just pretend it's an "I am Spartacus" moment.

I don’t understand it, really. I had some impersonators, too—and I’m practically nobody, follower-count wise. What do they get out of this strange behavior?

and yet somehow people still fall for these 0 like 0 follower dupes 🤦‍♀️

I wish impersonators would try to be themselves but maybe they do not like who they are.
