This is just theft. Legitimately disgusting, the level of disrespect.

a little kid came up to the desk (it came up to his like, collarbone) and very seriously asked me about baby name books, because he wanted to help name his new sibling. i guided him to the shelf (there were only two book of names) and pointed out the differences between them, and after some serious contemplation he went, “I think I should take both, just in case.” So I gave him both and he thanked me and went on his way.

And I went back to my desk and screamed into my arm for like 45 years because HE WAS SO FUCKING ADORABLE AAAAA

Hi Mr. Gaiman, I read a bunch of Discworld books after watching Good Omens and in one book Death says something like, "At the end of time I'll turn off the lights and lock the door behind me". Then I got the first volume of the Sandman Omnibus and the Endless Death says almost the same thing! So who came up with it first? Or is it a "great minds think alike" situation?

Probably a Neil-and-Terry-talking thing. There are places where lines that were mine showed up in Terry books and lines that were his showed up in my books, because we talked a lot and that was where the lines turned up first: in conversation, and really the lines weren't his or mine, they were ours. The "all cassettes left in a car eventually turn into the Best of Queen" thing was a standing joke of ours from conversation -- I put it into Good Omens, but if Terry had been writing something at the time where it would have fit, he could easily have put it there as a Discworld footnote.

“My privilege will try to make me complicit by default.”

This really hit home, so I’m posting it for others to see.

Because they did it in my name. They did it for the prosperity of their descendants. But I don’t want any benefits conferred through slavery. I know it’s impossible for me to shed every single advantage that my ancestry affords me, but the least I could do is examine it. Be critical of it, to be as proactive as possible when it comes to the whole ‘not being complicit in historical atrocities’ thing. As a person of considerable privilege, I consider it my responsibility because my privilege will try to make me complicit by default.“]
