Dana, same. That's what triggered the hell out of me. He is loathesome.

That was horrific. I don't have any hard decisions to make, because while I wasn't *not* a Gaiman fan, the only thing I ever did was watch Good Omens. And I see they've pulled him from production of S3 and given it only a single 90-minute episode to wrap up. And I guess I saw one episode of the Sandman series.

Completely different note - I came in to say that I have finished all the novels in the Expanse Series. That was a fun romp. I do have a compilation of all the shorter works to get from Overdrive today, so I can continue for a bit anyway, and I'm on S4 of the show and not rushing through. It's a bummer to leave a whole universe like that.

I was a big Gaiman fan and am just sick to my stomach.

I loved the Expanse novels so very much and was disappointed that the show didn't continue. I may need to check out the audiobooks and listen on my trip north this year as it has been long enough that I will have forgotten a lot.

He also said that, after reading the article, he realized that I was somehow very lucky in the mid 90s when I met Gaiman and hung out with him at conventions, because I was the sort he preyed on.

I had the same thought about you, Atropa. One of the many reasons it was such a disturbing read.

So hard to know what to do about the actual books, Dana. I haven't gotten that far. It's very easy for me to mentally file Good Omens as solo Pratchett, it's honestly how I have always thought of it. Everything else that is not Sandman I can let go fairly easily. Sandman, though, the copies I have are what I gave DH because the comics were important to us both independently and I am gonna take a while to work through how to deal with them now.

Deserves a separate post - hooray for enjoying The Expanse, Jen! I actually haven't finished the compilation of novellas (or whatever they are) because every time I look at it I think "but then there won't be any more" and decide maybe I'll finish that up later

My usual line for artists/musicians is "am I doing anything that would continue to support them/provide them money". So I won't go to Harry Potter world or buy new books or watch the movies on Netflix or wherever they are, because that benefits JK Rowling. But if I wanted to read fanfic (likely) or re-read the books that I already own (unlikely) or watch the movies on a DVD (if I had one), I would be OK with that.

I read the article. Jesus, it’s so much worse than I thought. Those poor women; I hope to G-D they’re able to heal.

… the amount of careful work he did to make sure so many of us who knew him didn’t know about his behavior. Sure, if you had the right connections, you knew he’d hooked up with fans in the past. And all of us 1) believed those were consensual, and 2) that he’d stopped doing that.

I don’t know how I feel about my huge collection of Gaiman-related books and collectibles. I think I’m going to hang on to everything, at least for a while, but it’s all going to be boxed away.

Totally shallow, and I 100% know that, but I’m selfishly glad I started wearing/collecting ankhs because of the vampire/eternal life meaning, not Sandman reasons.

Not *totally* shallow. You could be shallower.

Atropa, I’m thinking the same about boxing them up and keeping them. Of course, it’s not just my bookcase that’s filled with them, it’s ltc’s too.
