Because Nalini Haynes/DMZ apparently wants to dig that hole even deeper, she's now gonna seek "legal redress" against Sophie Gonzales because she doesn't think Sophie should've spoken on behalf of the queer community if she wasn't fully out. https://www.darkmatterzine.com/the-one-with-sophie-gonzales/ …

Has it genuinely not occurred to Haynes that there's no one universally Correct coming out experience? That whether or not a character coming out works in the story is not fundamentally tied to whether the author is queer and has come out themselves?

I almost think she shouldn't be doing starred reviews of a book where she needs to rely so fully on the author's identity to assess it? There are things that I don't feel I have the personal experience to judge, but I usually look to others' reviews then instead of doing my own.

Which is not to say you can't review a book about someone unlike yourself, only that she speaks with a lot of confidence for someone who was ambivalent enough about an ending to rely on the author's perceived identity.

I don't have any idea what's going on or who any of these people are, but for the love of doggos, kittehs, goats, and birbs, can we please stop hating on people for these fucking stupid reasons? Is the book good, or not? Isn't that what matters? Go ahead and @ me, I don't care.

I gotta stop looking at this mess but I'm so annoyed by it I'm just going to pray that I've comported myself in such a way that if I ever start behaving like that on the internet, people will like me enough to DM me to stop posting and call my therapist
