Put baby in pelican mouth!!!

Average potterhead level of reading comprehension.

I was responding specifically to a claim that JKR is “one of the greats” partly on the basis of her worldbuilding by pointing to a clear example of abysmal worldbuilding she’s done…? If the worldbuilding were really that brilliant, you’d expect some of the newer works set in the wizarding world to receive better than a lukewarm reception. Even before she outed herself as a fascist piece of shit nobody was tripping over themselves to catch Fantastic Beasts, and the general consensus was that her tweets about potter lore were pretty embarrassing.
And yeah, I’ll stand by my claim that her works are mediocre on their own merits (or rather, the lack thereof) and that there’s no shortage of better written material by others in the genre for which she’s famous. Some of these other authors are mentioned in this very thread.
We’re discussing her qualities as an author here, this isn’t about my hatred for her as a person, you’re the one who brought that up. You are letting your nostalgia for an IP’s long-past glory days obscure the objectivity behind the comments you are relying to.

Woah there buddy, do you know how many French cave dwellers you just pissed off rn??

Is this bait or are you fr rn??? Quit glazing lmao, her works are mid at best and there’s so many better authors (mentioned in this thread so you don’t even have legitimate claim to ignorance) to whom you’re doing a massive disservice by calling JKR “one of the greats.”
Bro really thinks twitter posts about how wizards didn’t know about plumbing centuries after the technology existed and would instead shit on the floor is somehow “fantastic” worldbuilding lmfao 💀

I really liked her Dragon Rider as a kid

This has been living rent-free in my head since I started reading it a month ago, and now I’m rereading it already.

Dear heavens, no! Miss me with that masculine-as-default bullshit

It’s super helpful for figuring out whom I should block on here. When anybody says something like “I asked shatgpt and…” I immediately know that all of their opinions henceforth are to be discarded without further consideration.

Stick with the prod. Prod with the prod. Just in case though, or police.

You’re doing the thing in the post tbh.

I’m sure there are! I’m asking you what you consider to be a measure for “high quality” evidence

Define “high quality.” For example, running double-blind studies with a control group in a scenario involving medical care for potentially suicidal patients isn’t really feasible because that would be widely considered to be super unethical, mmkay?

You also are stupid, but I’d still let you have some decision-making authority on matters of your own medical care.

Orange Solo? Cursed asf. This comment was brought to you by lemon Solo gang 💪💪💪

Where I live, not only do they still exist, but they’re also free to use and occasionally also offer free wifi. Why? No idea tbh, my guess is the government contract probably required the provider to keep them working for a certain amount of time.
