Finding out that Daniel Greene assaulted a woman multiple times and is among the Neil Gaiman’s of fantasy/sci-fi isn’t something I should be upset about, but I am. I shouldn’t be surprised. But I am.
It really is all men. It really is.
Naomi King, I hope you heal and know we believe you.

daniel greene and his actions, including the victim intimidation, has made me so unbelievably angry. i am so sick of being disappointed by men in this community. naomi king is an absolute powerhouse for coming forward.

my 2025 reading goals:
1. read less (take my time with each book; listen to audiobooks at a slighter slower pace, etc)
2. keep on top of my tbr (self explanatory)
3. move as far away from the amazon ecosystem as possible (no audible, look for replacement ebook providers)

i saw a reddit post once where an autistic person was invited to get a flu jab on the NHS and they didn’t know why they’d qualified. it ended with “in the end, vaccines didn’t give me autism, autism gave me vaccines”
WE ALREADY FOUND OUT. THE STUDIES HAVE BEEN DONE. THERE IS NO LINK. ITS BEEN KNOWN FOR YEARS AND THE GUY WHO STARTED THIS MESS WAS DISCREDITED AND HAD HIS LICENSE REVOKED FOR IT.
Scientists have already investigated this. The result? The doctor pushing this junk science had his license revoked for spreading deadly lies about vaccines.
