  • You seemed to already grasp what they mean when you said in a different comment that you already have the books to reread, and that this is a different thing. The closest thing to which it could be an adaptation of is the last 50ish pages of the silmarillion? It had some pretty big structural changes to that in season 1 already, so I don’t think fan fiction is an overly harsh description.

    Besides while it is often maligned, fan fiction is fine. It is okay to like fan fiction.

    My three paths:

    Women are not to be doing the right now, but they can be a good thing for the cause of a problem.

    Women are the most popular option for a first playthrough of the year 1250ad.

    Women are more important at first playthrough they can be a big mystery for a first reread and the north.

    I don’t know what happened in 1250ad, and don’t think I have even typed that before?




  • Not really. They asserted a thing, to which you, I think, mostly agreed with them, but in an obtuse way. Within your own comment, how would “spreading harmful opinions” not be hurting someone? Where does the harm come from?

    It really just comes of as the OP giving a fairly reasonable statment about JKR probably not looking at jail time, and how they think she is probably cynically using that for clout. Then you come in saying you believe it isn’t that for niche not-really-addressing-their-point reasons, which is proving them wrong on the level of say sunglasses emoji, gottem.

    usage, production and sorting is on them

    Plastic is a finite resource that is not going to disappear from global usage any time soon.

    Just fucking recycle.

    These statements are you throwing up your hands, but towards the actual problem of plastic waste.

    “where I live they don’t do it well”

    Where I live is on Earth, they don’t do it well anywhere here. In the US, people have been actively trying to get people to recycle more since the 70s, plastic recovery from recycling barely gets over 5% and that’s consistent throughout that 50 year period. That’s not just “not 100%” that’s dismal.

    As an initiative it has been wildly unsuccessful at best, and a cynical distraction at worst. The plastics industry is largely the same entities as the oil and gas industry, and they have run the same playbook to defer meaningful action against their damaging products.

    To bring it back: People not recycling plastics is equivalent to people not eating their pizza crusts in that they are trivial and ineffectual solutions to the problems of waste.
