Howdy, I'm Hollis! She/her or they/them! I'm also iamsweden on AO3!

I mostly agree with this except I don't think she came to this realization, but that Warner Bros has noticed it's affecting THEIR bottom line with merchandising and are putting pressure on her to tone it the fuck down. There are companies abandoning licenses for HP over boycotts and protests.

The reason JKR is suddenly saying more and more “moderate” seeming things is not because her views are “moderate”, you daft shits. It’s because she is registering that her extremely overtly transphobic points are now making her very unpopular.

A really basic thing that people who use generative AI to make flyers, menus, book covers etc don't seem to grasp is that it makes it look like a scam. Using an image which has been generated makes it look like the real thing doesn't exist. No one wants to buy a ticket or whatever. It looks fake.

I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.
