I know people who are friends with Cline and they all say he’s a very nice person and I’m sure he is, but fucksake he’s also a millionaire who owns two Deloreans. He couldn’t hire a few outside editors/sensitivity readers if he absolutely had to include gender stuff?

Like maybe I’m over cautious because I have spent a *lot* of money on this very thing for my second book and I don’t have an nth of Cline’s money, but at this stage “his heart was in the right place” really doesn’t cut it. That this passage made it to the final draft is baffling.

Copyright matters until you’re Disney and you need to pay Alan Dean Foster royalties.

What's funny is that Tweetdeck still shows the media in the thumbnail (probably caching or something). Would love to see the legal quagmire this would open, should it be pursued to that insane degree.pic.twitter.com/YxlTQvjFxK

It's not just Tweetdeck. It looks that way on Twitter too.
