I am having a tidy up of Communities/etc so quite a few will go. There’ll be some warning, but it will be done before August.

    Do you think awards should be limited to The Academy?

    That only pearl clutching, blue haired old women should get to tell us what is acceptable in our society?

    Before the pedants and so on start asking if I want to legalise child porn and snuff films, no.

    But this is a fictional site where people write stories. They don’t act out stories and they don’t make films of the stories (at least not on the site), and I am not advocating for that.

    If people don’t want to read them, they can go back to story time with mother. But that doesn’t mean they get to tell me what I can and cannot read.

    Also, if Johnny Sims wants to make his money entertaining people, then yeah - I say more power to him. It’s more honest than some of the actors in Hollywood.

    I know I have no way of convincing anyone of this, but I am not a Russian bot (living in the UK and not being able to vote in the US election).

    But these are exactly the points of view I have been expressing over here about the Tory and Labour parties. Maybe not so much the “not voting at all” one but the other three? Yeah – that sounds a lot like me right now.

    (I think you should vote for someone you believe in, rather than voting for someone who is not someone else, if that makes sense)

    But definitely not a Russian bot :)
