Has anyone ever approached you with negativity about Rekindled? Or did you ever see someone post about it in a negative manner? Because I'm really curious as to how the "die hard" LO fans would approach a retelling that comes from a creator who has been criticizing and analyzing LO in a way that RS and her fans would deem hateful or rude. Love your comic so far!

I've had a couple criticisms put in asks before but they were all very constructive and coming from a good place so I don't consider that negativity (and most of said criticisms were just concerning small things that were easy to fix like text being hard to read; I think it's too early for Rekindled to have enough content to criticize).

As for actual negativity, none directly, save for a few asks in the past that call me out for being mean/hateful/rude (like in the way you're curious about), but those were never about Rekindled specifically, just about my blog existing, period. Not liking my blog or essays or w/e is fine but DM'ing me directly with that sort of thing is like... really kinda silly and presumptuous lol Like what do you want me to do? Not write about the thing I made this blog specifically for? There are, of course, times where my takes may be rough around the edges or need clarification or just might be Not That Good(tm) and people will call me out but that's a different thing entirely from using the anon filter just to put "you're mean and pathetic" in my asks. I don't know what to do with that or tell you, sorry you don't like my stuff ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That said, there could very well be people out there dissing on Rekindled that I don't know about. That's none of my business. Thankfully people have been pretty respectful in my inbox and that's pretty much all I ask :' ) People genuinely trying to get a rise out of me or call me names or w/e really doesn't happen that often, I think it's happened maybe 3 times since I started this blog lol And I haven't gotten an ounce of genuine hate or negativity towards Rekindled, just constructive crit and pointers which are all helpful. Maybe that'll change some day down the road, maybe we'll start seeing more hashtag discussions around Rekindled. Hopefully if I do my part right it won't be quite as crazy as what LO is going through but that's why I'm doing this in the first place - to give back to the people (and myself) who were letdown by all the failures of LO.

The thing is, while it is a rewrite comic born out of spite, for normal people who either like LO casually or don't lean heavily one way or the other in their stance towards the comic, it's just an indie fan project which means more cake! o(*°▽°*)o

howdy! does anyone have any reading recommendations regarding uranium extraction and nuclear testing in the American Southwest, esp. in relation to indigenous rights and environmental injustice?

I'm writing an essay about an artwork that deals with nuclear stuff in the Southwest and tying it to thoughts I'm having about iron mining in the UP, but most of my leads and sources are more on the Northern Midwest side than the Southwest side of things. thanks besties
