    Wow that’s…

    What strikes me is how boring the abuse was. Like, boiler plate horror. Maybe this does make me think less of him as an author, not just as a person.

      Well I haven’t looked into the 8 other women. But at least one of the others was absolutely raped, and another was paid off in exchange for an NDA

        Right but like ‘call me master’ DUDE

        Fucking do better. Not even be less a piece of shit, but a more interesting piece of shit.

        Like ‘i hired a PI to learn the song you had your first kiss to, then spent a week practicing, so just as the acid and molly kick in…’

        Or, idk, a choir? Some chanting?

          He’s not glamorous he’s an ordinary creep.

          One of them was one of his tenants, when her husband left her and the kids she could no longer pay rent so he made her give him blowjobs. It’s about as unimaginative and textbook as it gets.

            ordinary creep

            It looks like, and that’s what’s so extra-disappointing about it.

            Edit: Say what ypu want about peter thiel, that fucker will end the world if we don’t end him first, but i can respect the weird repressed christofascist homosexuality manifesting in violence-intimacy-grandiose-ambition-hierarchalist blood-boy shit. That’s cool and exciting.

            I would just… Im not just disappointed that hes a piece of shit, but that he’s such a boring piece of shit.

                As a person, no. As a fucked up evil monster, i can respect how much of a deranged little freak he is.

                Or like a roger stone who reveled in being a creepy bastard.

                Or kissenger!

                But no. Gaiman is just a rapey asshole who thinks other people exist for his juvenile fantasy.
