I’ll give J.K. Rowling this:

Ah, yes, the Taliban, famously supportive of the trans community and staunch opponents of the traditional gender binary.

I mean, this is basically radfem 101. Men universally perpetrate violence, women universally suffer violence, and these categories are inviolable and absolute. It’s, uh, not really an ideology that holds up to scrutiny

that’s the line that really got me! like i get the bigotry she was going for, but that statement on it’s face is just laughable. joanne, did you somehow think before trans women were incarcerated with cis women that there were no sex offenders in women’s prisons and even more did you think that there were no sexual…

Aw, is the billionaire bigot gonna cry some more?

“female prisoners incarcerated with convicted sex offenders”

When asked for comment, the BDU (British Dementor’s Union) spokesghoul had this to say:

She’s determined to finally cross the line where she’s better known for this bullshit than as a writer.

She got rich and famous by writing a very easy to read pastiche of a bunch of other works, thus she has an outsized sense of her own talent and importance. 

Or she is just an asshole. Hard to separate out all that 

Who would have thought an old british hag would be intolerant?

“Won’t somebody PLEASE think of the transphobes!”

Man if there’s one thing you can say for JK Rowling it’s that she doesn’t rest on her laurels. Nope, she’s out there showing her whole ass all day every day.

Just imagine how fucked WB’s finances are that they’re still hanging onto doing business with her.

As soon as I saw that he was being offered up for interviews, I thought, “This is someone who would’ve been an instant green-light candidate for the feature back in the day.” I was extremely happy to find that the new management agreed.

In a parallel universe, he has Kevin Bacon’s career. Of course, then he’s making out with his sister on Footloose. NVM

Those are the best ones. 

It’s a video about the interview, but 1:43 is the gold you’re referring to.

This ignores everything outside of the interview itself, which is frequently a sticking point for me in these conversations. IGNORE the “last name got me an audition” talking point. You still get to live in the town where the industry exists. You still have a place to crash just about everywhere you go. You don’t have…

I think I still have a hard drive with old torrented Daily Show episodes somewhere... which I found in the woods and totally didn’t download myself, of course.
