@hugofitz.bsky.socialWhenever we talk about a problematic artist, some ppl in the comments always go, "Well, I always knew X's art always sucked." Like... ok? Not really the point, but glad you're making it clear you were never "tainted". It's more about making clear their purity than engaging with the conversation.
Show Postwith Gaiman and Rowling it’s extra annoying because a lot of it is just smug genre hate from literary snobs who think fantasy is for children. I always want to be like “hey real quick, Serious Intellectual, how many Woody Allen and Roman Polanski DVDs are on your shelf” it’ll be your guy someday!!!
Show PostConsent to be touched respects the person who has the right to choose whether they want it. Nobody has a right to physical interactions with children, whether or not the intent of that interaction is physical. The alternative is an unconscionable denial of children's rights to body autonomy.
Show PostI showed my 12-year-old son the video. And asked him: Is there anything wrong with that? No. Are the grandparents bad people in it? Also no.
Show PostThe distinction being drawn by the Government members is that a hug is non-sexual and so you don't need consent. I simply don't agree and this is a very bad assertion of government policy over children. We had a whole referendum where the rights of children were affirmed www.rte.ie/news/2026/10...
