Few people will care about this at all, but I’ve noticed a serious uptick in violent rhetoric and hostility here comparable to the site I refer to as Norwegian Blue.

As such, I will only be used by this account to talk to friends in DMs or to let them know we can continue by DM.

In summary: Someone excitedly talking a bunch of trying to get a word in doesn’t mean they’re being intentionally rude if they genuinely don’t know.

Doing so SPECIFICALLY to shut them up is.

up front when I know I’m gonna be talking with them a long time since I might not notice.

B) Three rights make a left, but that doesn’t mean you should do what you claim to know is wrong.

C) This person gets annoyed whenever I talk AT ALL. INCLUDING when she asks me something.

I ran into this last night. I was interrupted twice by someone while trying to just explain something to a third person, and told them "I just want you to know, being interrupted pisses me off."

Response: "Oh so when you do it, it’s okay."

A) if I was doing that, TELL ME. I always ask people to be

So… this means The Fellspyre Chronicles are fully dead?

I never said his reaction is good either. But calling for death is never okay.

Calling for an apology or a retraction? Ok. But the majority of these replies haven’t been "polite".

And so we go to ad hominem. That took longer than expected.

And for the people who are saying they hate the material and are all but certain to dogpile this for being remotely positive: that’s totally valid. That’s fine.

Threatening the creator's life or telling him to commit self harm in real life is not.

even so. The point is that the response is not okay. Bottom line. Poorly thought out or even deliberately horrible writing decisions (again I’m not pointing to anyone) is NO excuse.

When people are saying they hate it AND saying "well yeah death threats aren’t okay BUT", which do you think is the part they ACTUALLY care about?

I’ll admit I’m biased. I haven’t read it (I don’t read many comics, and don’t tend to touch X books usually) and have friendly interactions w/him. But

People are saying "Yeah there’s death threats and those aren’t okay but you are wrong."

Nobody is saying what was written is okay. I haven’t seen any defense of the work itself. They’re saying the response isn’t okay.

I saw someone saying "comic writers aren’t real people" as their excuse.

Okay. If you need to, my DMs are open. Probably won’t be super active during the workday for obvious reasons, but after 5.

(Also completely unrelated, I got the Kickstarter for the new H/S hardcover. Got on board ASAP.)

I don’t drink, so this is concerning.

Neither am I, but I’m not going to blame someone for not realizing their mistakes over a decade before they were known to the public.

It costs nothing to not engage. If you didn’t care, you wouldn’t have written anything. Unless you’re saying you don’t care about truth or accuracy in blame.

I’m sorry to hear that.

@hackintimseeley.bsky.social Just checking in to see if you’re okay. I’d contact via DM but you understandably have those private.

Nothing more than that. Just heard the news about you leaving the other place and want to check in.

I don’t really consider calling someone the clone of that guy who I won’t name up front a joke, but whatever.

So like Life Story?

I just generally feel Marvel works best when it’s dealing with down-to-earth issues. I’ve heard it said that the core difference between DC and Marvel is that DC heroes you look up to, Marvel heroes you relate to.

I like when they’re like this. Just normal guys doing ridiculous jobs.

I’m aware of these things.

However, I hate putting ideas writers wouldn’t conceive of in their characters' mouths.

Also, calling Peter literally that guy, who I KNOW who he is, is quite a stretch. A certain Mike G would have something to say about that.

I Am Alive is a really cool game. It’s hard, but it feels more like a The Walking Dead story than The Walking Dead does.

I wouldn’t apply that logic to a Ditko era comic.

Those words weren’t even considered then.

Yes, and she wants to speak to the manager.
