I'm having the time of my life trying to imagine how Hawks got up onto his little perch, like he can't fly yet and it looks taller than him so did Best Jeanist help him up or something? Did he just clamber up in front of everyone or did he do it when no one else was in the room? Did he take a running jump? Just imagining everyone else in the room all serious and somber and he's got his ankle up by his head trying to get a viewpoint on everyone 💀

Oh God how did he get up there?

I think Hawks has enough pride that he wouldn't want one of the other heroes to help him up. But it's so funny imagining Jeanist picking him up to put him up there. Maybe he used some of the boxes laying around on the ground? That would be so much worse though like-

Everyone else: Hawks what are you doing?

Hawks: *ignores them cause he has to perch* I'm sitting?

Everyone else: ...ok.

a lot of people make fun of Silver the Hedgehog because his debut game was infamous, but his character motive is really interesting, just poorly executed. The comics add a little more to the concept, but not much. This kid keeps finding different ways to travel back in time, believing that he can save the world he lives in by stopping a great catastrophe. Even when he succeeds and returns home, his world is still in shambles and he tries traveling farther and farther back in time to eliminate all possible problems. He's depicted as being both a hero, an enemy, and a general nuisance because people are tired of him showing up in their timelines to fix things and it's genuinely a trope I don't recall seeing much in other time-traveling stories. Except maybe Dr. Who? Idk it's been forever since I watched Dr. Who and I should sit back down with it. Anyway, Silver's adventures testifies to his naiveté and his stubbornness. And I wonder if he'll ever think that some things are inevitable and it's not his responsibility to fix the past so much as do what he can in his current timeline. To be fair though, his current timeline is a dystopia where he's always fighting monsters or running away from being experimented on. Given how much he time travels he may just be numb to it all and constantly grinding in an attempt to make things right. Also,,,, he loves gardening,,,, like if he lived a perfect life,,, all he would do is garden,,, and that's just endearing but makes so much sense, because he starts with nothing at all. I know the Sonic series gets a lot of (deserved) jabs but this is pretty good writing that makes you invested and makes you think how you would respond to his existential dilemma.

Please don’t pirate books at least while the author is alive. I’ll make an exception for actual billionaires and wildly expensive textbooks you cannot afford yet need to complete your studies. I can’t make an exception for assholes, because we’re all considered assholes by someone.  I don’t know how many people realise how many writers who created successful, beloved stories and characters still die poor while other people get rich off the same work. I don’t think people realise that in the UK the current average yearly earnings for an author has nosedived over the last fifteen years to £10,500. That obviously is forcing people to quit writing. It increasingly means writing is a job for people who’ve inherited money or have wealthy spouses who can support them. I don’t know if people realise that in general, writers are poor and getting poorer. I’m sorry, but if you think widespread sense of entitlement to free books has nothing to do with that … you’re just wrong. 

I say I don’t think people realise - the truth is I hope they don’t, because the alternative is that they don’t care. That’s certainly the impression I’ve got from Twitter, where a truly horrifying number of people are arguing that copyright on  all books should expire after thirty years, and you should be able to acquire books for  free after that. This … would not just mean that everyone gets free books. It would mean if you write a book at 30, not only do you lose any royalties from it at 60, but Disney can take it, make a franchise out of it, Scrooge McDuck it up in a pool of money while you starve because writers don’t get workplace pensions.

Some threads on the unintended (?) consequences of this. I can’t go over it all again. John Brownlow NK Jemisin Michael Marshall Smith Me Marina Lostetter Kari Dru and others William Gibson and others

There are plenty of others. It’s not that this actual idea will actually happen, but I do think it reinforces the idea that it’s not only okay, but sometimes actually virtuous to search for ways to enjoy writers’ work without paying for it. Like it’s somehow a step towards a better world. Not just at the reader end, to be fair, at the employer end too. And I do see a lot of people here too who are all about supporting workers unless the workers are writers in which case fuck’em. 

Like. If you want to radically change society in such a way that mass-media conglomerates don’t exist and so can’t exploit us and we’re supported to make art in some other way than fine. But can you start the revolution with actual rich people please, not ask us to live right now, in the society we’ve got, without the money we need to survive it. Finally, a plea: I really, really, do not want to debate this. This whole thing genuinely makes me feel tense and shaky and sick. If you’ve got to disagree - unfollow me, block me, vagueblog somewhere I can’t see it. The Twitter version of this already has me feeling like I’ve been kicked in the gut. I didn’t want to write this post. I just felt I wasn’t going to have any peace until I did.
