"Why aren't you posting about Gaiman" because I don't know anyone, don't know the allegations except they exist, haven't heard the podcast, am far from an expert on any aspect of this & the worst thing about the internet is everyone feeling the need to weigh in on topics they are not qualified to
“Let me keep tagging this person to ask why they haven’t chimed in on x topic yet, then when they respond to say ‘idk enough about this to respond yet’ let me call them names and cuss at them for denying that x happened.”
Not my fav thing about the internet
Yeah, it's kind of a close cousin to
[bad thing happens]
"Hey, this bad thing happened. That's bad."
"OH SO YOU'RE SURPRISED? MUST BE NICE TO LIVE IN YOUR LITTLE BUBBLE."
As a gen x’er (well, xennial) I have to take responsibility for that attitude, I’m afraid. We crested the attitude of constantly needing to one-up each other about how completely unsurprised we are by how shitty the world is. It’s our one contribution to the culture
Sorry
