I am 30 or 40 years old and have fungi and plants to tend. Small time Florida mushroom farmer and homesteader. 1/2 of Parasol Farm. Pfp drawn by Rob St Clair. She/her 🇵🇸
I'm not even kidding, after all my years encountering the kinds of people who show up to vaguely "alt" or goth-themed events, when I see someone who's too Emilie Autumn/Dresden Dolls/Birthday Massacre-coded and then in walks their friend, the pagan wino guy obsessed with Rasputina, I'm like

"I just really love spooky cutesy bats! I'm really more of a pastel goth! Tradgoths are so mean about it sometimes!" - someone who has tormented multiple people into psych ward visits
It's the fanbase too. You know how the people who are obsessed with cutesy stuff and have picrew pfps are the most vicious people on earth and will cave your head in with a rock if you say you don't like Steven Universe? That's now NG and other "whimsigoth" types are to regular goths.

So uh... anybody with a bigger megaphone than me want to help a butch out?
The Gilbert Baker Foundation & CMG are asking a settlement from us for referring to the Gilbert Baker flag/original color scheme as the "Gilbert Baker flag" of twice what we've ever made from anything with those colors.
Who has two thumbs and got a legal threat from the lawyers for the Gilbert Baker foundation because he gave credit to Gilbert Baker as the creator of the original Pride flag on items that use that colorway?
YEP!
Out of curiosity I checked up on reddit to see what they're saying about today's revelation, and someone linked to this comment from 10 months ago on a post about nicknames given to authors.
@billkezos.bsky.social despite shit-talking Gaiman all day and being familiar with your username pattern for something like 3 or 4 years, I saw your new display name and I'm so crocodilian-brained that I spent like 30 seconds happily thinking about caimans before I got it.
Anybody who finds it unbelievable that an older guy who ditched his wife to have a big, messy, public relationship (that revolved entirely around reminding people that they fuck) with a much younger woman who's a nightmare would also be a rapist hasn't been to many bars or live music venues.
don't think I have the mental fortitude to deal with another episode of "you would not respond this way if he wasn't your parasocial comfort celebrity" after the depp stuff gonna be real
since this is making the rounds let me emphasize the neil gaiman investigation isn’t the first time women have warned each other about him and it won’t be the last
I'm never surprised anymore. So much so that when people say "At least we still have [insert beloved creative here]," my gut reaction is that it's because they haven't been caught yet.
this is what happens when u have a culture that encourages its people to base their entire ideology, identity, and worth on what kind of media they consume btw
It's perfectly understandable to have not suspected anything before, but I honestly don't know how anybody can hear the recent news and think there's a chance it's not true instead of "oh, come to think of it, Gaiman did always have Faux Softboy Creepo 'Ally' vibes coming off him like stink lines."

In October 2018, I was sick at home and had too a little too much cold medicine. So I decided to live tweet “O*tlander” a show I’d heard some good things about.
Nothing will prepare you for the saga that unfolded.
If a terf website just made up a story about me out of whole cloth, including statements I've never made, I'd probably just say so and sue them. Going radio silent is what I'd do on advice of a lawyer when facing potential criminal proceedings
When you have a net worth of over $18 million and a global fanbase, you're looking at an unfathomable power differential between you and your live-in domestic employee. "All I did was screw her on her first day" is a defense only someone out of touch enough to marry Amanda Palmer could make.
As someone who's lived 30 mins from DC and 40 mins from NYC, I'm a bit aggressive about my redneck roots which account for about 3/4 of my heritage, but if it's any indication of my status I've been working for 7 years to live in a shed in a town where Johnny Donutseed is the biggest attraction.
