I'm below median on socialisation - why I think social media blocks & folks complaining here can beat IRL equivalent: IRL change must be frequent contact to "ghosted!" to be sure it's 'you messed up' not just "folks busy with other priorities". IRL explanations don't scale & need privilege + energy.

This. Uncontested picture alone makes him look very questionable - "don't try to have sex with your much younger employee while they are employed by you" is a very low bar & not clearing that low bar understandably reinforces any credible allegation that one is even lower in character.

Neil Gaiman claims he had a consensual sexual relationship with his child’s 21-year-old nanny that started on her FIRST DAY. That’s enough for me.

Not sure exact dollars it works out as but I think Libro.fm promo code of SWITCH gives 3 audiobook credits for price of 1 (so less than $7/book) for 1st month & books downloadable as MP3s - no lock in! Still making up my mind but On Repentance and Repair is strong contender for a use of my credits.

Oh hey the audiobook of my book is only 7 bucks today:

Every time people say "but how will we afford universal healthcare," please remind them that our per capita PUBLIC spending on health care is already at the level of countries with universal public care. Private spending is just an additional fuckery on top of that.
