Joss Whedon Allegations: The Undoing of the "Buffy" Creator

[Gradine]

Oh... oh no...

Well, that was a particularly depressing run of Google.

Could be worse.

Imagine if you were a Marion Zimmer Bradley stan ....

Whoo boy, yeah, that's so much worse. Eddings' books were dumb fun fantasy but hardly foundational. MZB opened the floodgates for women authors of Fantasy & Sci-Fi, and fought tooth and nail to never let them shut. There's definitely quite a lot more to square there regarding her legacy and the revelations that came out about her and her husband.

Hey, how do I block posts with out blocking the author of the said post? Because I don’t want stuff like this to clog up my feed when I come visit this site. No offense to the author of the post, I simply don’t have the desire to see stuff like this.

I've learned today some things I didn't know about certain writers I've enjoyed. Ugh.

For me, the worst* recent one was probably Isaac Asimov.

I was like ... c'mon. Asimov???? sigh


*Worst in terms of shock combined with love of the work. MZB is, obviously, "worse."

You can unwatch the thread...

Still shows up when I visit the mobile site. I’m sorry, I don’t want to see anything about allegations, or anything about Josh Wheadon. I’m asking if it is possible to hide threads to better customize my experience.

You should message the mods.

As far as I am aware, there is no way to hide individual threads.

David Eddings was one of my favorite authors...

My boss wants me to convey his thanks. I'm done with the internet now.

My father in law did work on her house back when. Apparently it was run like a weird commune with a super toxic vibe.
