As someone who's been involved in queer culture and knowledge production for 15 years, I need to talk about James Somerton.
I want to build on some points from Hbomberguy's conclusion, and share how I feel about how utterly despicable what Somerton done truly is. 🧵

Editor's note: This story contains content that readers may find disturbing, including graphic allegations of sexual assault.
Last summer, a British podcast broke the news that multiple women had accused Neil Gaiman, the acclaimed British fantasist and author of ‘The Sandman’’ and ‘Coraline,’ of sexual assault. Most of them were in their 20s when they met Gaiman. With one exception, the stories take place when Gaiman was in his 40s or older. By then, he had a reputation as one of the greatest modern comic-book writers and an outspoken champion of women.
For our new cover story, New York features writer @lilapearl talks to more women who shared allegations of assault, coercion, and abuse. She also looks into Gaiman's upbringing in Scientology, as well as his relationship with his wife, Amanda Palmer, and what she knew. Through their stories, she uncovers the dark secrets Gaiman hid for decades. vulture.com/article/neil-gai…

Imagine reviewing the G-Witch Blu-Ray, talking about the plot without a single mention of the romance..
Also calls people ignorant for celebrating the female protagonists cos it's "not new". Suletta is the first female Gundam TV protagonist, Ollie. What are you on about?

look man, what do ou want me to say about the US election? I got off the Great Passionate Lefty Declarations On Social Media train around 2021. idk idk idk. we're all fucked, let's support each other and keep fighting, it's all
I want to yell from the rooftops about how fucking good Transformers One is but I keep hitting the brick wall of "my fandom is full of idiots who think people like TFHypeGuy are a good idea"
the lesson to learn from TFHypeGuy is that if you're an absolute melt, make a show of yourself annoying half the planet to lick corporate boots, you too can get a merch package from your favourite corporation and the fandom will applaud you

what sucks about modern tech is the fact that AI, the Metaverse and cryptography are genuinely interesting ideas and/or technologies, and yet the Worst People In The Planet decided to turn them all into the Torment Nexus
Something to understand about me is I can be the toughest lesbian you ever met who barely has dudes in her life but I have an intense soft spot for a guy who spends his entire life locked in his basement in pursuit of a craft. that's a lot of my mates actually lol
me, breaking down the door to TFWiki:
WHICH OF YOU BASTARDS WROTE THIS CAPTION??? YOU'VE RESTARTED MY FUCKING ECHOLALIA
UPDATE: went around with a mate. nobody knew anything about it, we knocked on every door. some people were away, and some didn't come to the door, so
