If they tied a bookwyrm comments section to an ISBN number for example then anybody/site could easily have it embedded to make it a universal tool rather than specifically connected to a piracy site.

The current demographic like fantasy in general I suspect, but are less fanatic about the books, pop culture, merchandise or even fanfiction aspects of the Harry Potter franchise.

I will get downvoted into oblivion: This is ultimately a strange thing to do, though of course people who love the franchise and the films will like this too - I do appreciate why this is nice. But it’s clear that only a cringelord like Tom Felton would consistently do this - I think Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) is a bit more down to earth but perhaps he’s overly sentimental… You wouldn’t find Alan Rickman doing this! QED.

I’m envisioning Bookwyrm behaving as a comments section for anna’s archive (possibly all/any decentralised book repositary), but they’d be reviews instead. I’m reminded of discus or facebook that you often get embedded on certain sites.

I’m hearing this happens with the bodies of Palestinians as well.

Mate, Palestinians just happen to exist and want to thrive. Stop ascribing some violent fantasy that never was to those poor people.

Some say Fry is not so good with his rendition of female characters’ voices.

He tripped over McGonagall in her cat form once.

I would have thought this was common knowledge. I suspect these redditors just don’t put any effort into recall or thinking in general.

No you dimwit. I read the papers. Normal people do do that. Dimwit.

Will they ban Facebook which facilitated a genocide?

Gay rights are human rights.

I forgot Americans don’t call them fags.

China’s collapse is coming with the rise of other regional powers to counterbalance it. It’s right around the corner. Any day now.

Has Zelensky ever condemned Israel’s war crimes? As one occupied people to another?

I’ve heard Israel actually wants sympathy too, and get jealous of the support given to European nations when they get hit by terror attacks or random disasters like the cathedral burning. Israel should understand they are a military base in the middle of the Muslim world. They are percieved as a colony. And seeing the amount of military aid and impunity they recieve from the Europeans and America it’s only strengthened that view.

if it’s true

You’re actually entertaining the idea? lol.

Italy has a shameful fascist past and present that can abuse Tolkien’s work like many other fascists do. Italy’s shambolic, incoherent and ridiculous fascism melds well with Tolkien’s own multifaceted views in some respects. He did (as a Catholic not a fascist) support Franco, though in later life turn towards the traditional left wing libertarianism/anarchism. And his letter to the Nazis condemning their bigotry is well-known.
