BRIDGERTON (2020–) | 2.08 “The Viscount Who Loved Me”

A girl who loves salt and vinegar chips will do anything to protect her fucking family

[roguesinside]

Book Colin is truly wild because once his Pen switch is flipped it’s properly FLIPPED. And I feel the show really needs to display just how unhinged he becomes. Accidentally slicing his hand open while arguing with her. Walking home in the rain to cool down after the kiss. During the Featheringtons meeting basically shouting “I want to marry Penelope” and being like “Why the fuck would i want to marry Felicity when Pen exists? And then telling Lady F she better start respecting his soon to be wife. And perhaps most wild of all when he goes to see her the next day after enjoying her company at the concert, he hasn’t eaten all day. UNHINGED.

The difference between “twitter is just like 2016 tumblr” and “tiktok is just like 2012 tumblr” is that the twitter ecosystem consists of people who migrated there from tumblr and did not change even a bit since then, while tiktok recreated the entire experience from whole cloth. speciation vs convergent evolution

Plagiarism Alert: Author Romilly King Plagiarized Destiel Fanfic

eHey ya'll - reposting this on Tumblr, on behalf of a the OP on Twitter, who gave me permission. The original thread is here: https://twitter.com/KokomRoily/status/1422965705167806471

(if you have trouble reading the side-by-sides check Twitter)

FROM TWITTER (I am NOT the "I" in these! But I know who is, they're a friend, and this evidence looks pretty iron-clad to me)

>I'm what you'd call a voracious reader. I read all the time, everywhere. I read non-fiction, fiction, & fanfiction. I don't discriminate great stories. What I do despise is plagiarism. Color me surprised when I bought "Paid to Kneel" by Romilly King. It seemed so familiar.

>By chapter 2, I realised I could mouth along with the lines, because this is almost verbatim "You can hurt me, it's okay, baby" by Blue_Jack.

>All of these screenshots are of "Paid to Kneel" (with yellow highlights of plagiarised text) next to "If you hurt me, that's okay, baby" by Blue_Jack on Ao3.

(unforth's note: ...I've hit Tumblr's image limit, but you get the idea. There are even more images on Twitter, but even just these ten prove the point. Here's the rest of OP's commentary from the thread)

>I contacted Blue Jack to see if they're Romilly. They're not. They filed a plagiarisation claim with Amazon, who pulled the book. The audio book still remains, for the moment.

>Romilly has published a book approximately once a month during 2020 and into 2021. It's entirely possible she's been writing ahead of time and is only publishing now. It's also entirely possible she's plagiarised more fic.

>The plagiarisation isn't even remotely subtle.

>This was a work put out into the world to be enjoyed for free. Blue_Jack spent *hours and hours* writing and editing this *for free*, for people to enjoy *for free*, and someone tried profiting from it. That's not okay.

>If this fanfiction has been plagiarised so thoroughly, how can I trust other books by Romilly aren't also plagiarised fic? If this fanfiction has been plagiarised so thoroughly, how can I trust other books by Romilly aren't also plagiarised fic?

>I suggest you go read the fanfic, if you like kinky Destiel. It's *most* excellent. https://archiveofourown.org/works/5200685

And a little more from me -

Romilly King has almost 23 books out since early last year up on Amazon. They've got thousands of reviews on Goodreads. Given how often they publish, and how flagrantly they plagiarized this one, whatcha want to bet they've stolen wholesale from many different authors in different fandoms? This is major, guys, and totally unacceptable.

Spread this like wild-fire, and let's bring this plagiarist down in flames!

actually there were 0 time travellers on the Titanic, because the time cops have an entire outpost to safeguard that one particular point in history. every rookie spends a least a month on Titanic duty and they all complain bitterly about it since it is, essentially, the time travel equivalent of being the guard who has to stop tourists from licking the Liberty Bell.
