This is literally the worst time to lose Deborah Caldwell Stone. We need all the intellectual freedom support we can get. What the actual fuck indeed.

Thank YOU for closing out the conference with a bang! I will be thinking about how to incorporate thoughts about data citizenship into my info lit classes with first year students for the next few months. As you said, education is the way. 😊

Anyway I’m sure people more involved in the fandom and book communities have more incisive takes, but this has been on my mind all day. At least when a Hollywood mogul is revealed to be evil, no one ever assumed him to be kind. 5/5

But that’s the thing— he always seemed so genuine. I wish we knew where the line was drawn between his outward persona and the awfulness inside. Was it all an act? Or is he *somehow* both a genuinely kind man and someone who has the capacity to hurt vulnerable women in such terrible ways? 4/?

At both events, gaiman was effortlessly charming. He didn’t seem to be trying at all. If he had been a little more slick or a little more glib, this news of his true nature maybe wouldn’t have come as so much of a shock. Like, “aha! we KNEW he was too smooth to be genuine!” 3/?

Plus there is a child involved!

But it wasn’t just the facts presented. I was never a gaiman super fan, but I did go to two events where he was a featured speaker. At one event, I stood in line with a friend who wanted his autograph. 2/?

Wild how her first response when she heard their son was present while gaiman was abusing that poor woman was “well did he have headphones on??”

My dad was a Master & Commander dad. We must’ve watched it ten times together over holiday breaks. Sometimes I would come home and he would already have it on, waiting. He died three years ago. I still haven’t been able to watch M&C. 💔 Enjoy every discussion, save every voicemail, savor every hug!

ALSO I haven’t been to #Cardiff since my adventurous twenties. I feel like I had a beer called Brains while I was there?
