@georgetakei I'm amazed at all the euphemisms for an apparent "assault" that the headlines are using. Or do my eyes deceive me?

@georgetakei I really get taken aback at the perspective that is sometimes aired that the Harry Potter actors "owe" their wealth and fame (and support!) to Rowling. I mean, the inverse is kinda true too. Those child stars made Rowling a fortune, far bigger than she would've had otherwise. Movies are hella more lucrative than book sales, which they also boosted.

There's a weird narcissism about Rowling and her supporters. Some need to foist her onto a grand pedestal.

@arstechnica So... it'll just circulate, and circulate, until it inevitably finds the immunocompromised. Wonderful.
