I have never heard of this band. I AM in fact referring to the animal.

“but what about separating the art from the artist” buddy. listen to me. joanne kathleen rowling is relevant for one reason and one reason only—she wrote harry potter. that’s why she’s famous. that is the bedrock of her fucking platform. jk rowling is the harry potter lady and harry potter is the jk rowling guy. this is not the same thing as listening to a song on repeat even though the keyboardist was an asshole, or reading a novel by some dude who sucked ideological shit in the 1800s. jk rowling has a hate platform right now, today, and she sustains it off of harry potter bucks. u will forgive me if i am unwilling to advertise for her

Every 21st century piece of writing advice: Make us CARE about the character from page 1! Make us empathize with them! Make them interesting and different but still relatable and likable!
Every piece of classic literature: Hi. Itโs me. The bland everyman whose only purpose is to tell you this story. I have no actual personality. Hereโs the story of the time I encountered the worst people I ever met in my life. But first, ten pages of description about the place in which I met them.
Modern writing advice: Yes your protagonist should have flaws but ultimately we should root for them and like them from the beginning :)
Charles Dickens: Here is the worst ugliest rudest meanest nastiest bitch youโve ever met in your life.
Modern writing advice: Make sure your POV character goes through a significant arc! Make sure they are changed by the narrative! Make sure they learn a lesson!
Narrators of every book of the 19th century: the lesson I learned is these people fucking suck, sayonara you freaks
Modern writing advice: Itโs all about the character overcoming obstacles and learning! They learn their lesson so they can fix their mistakes and make good choices in the future! Itโs a character arc! Itโs called growth! Readers love it!
Everyone from ancient times through the 19th century: would you like to watch a Guy fuck up twenty times in a row

she was so real for this
[Transcription start:
Anderson Cooper: “That rumor- were that you had a male appendage. That you were a hermaphrodite. And you joked about it on the stage last night.”
Lady Gaga: “Maybe I do.”
Cooper, laughing: “But it- but it’s interesting-”
Lady Gaga: “Would it be so terrible?”
Cooper: “But it’s interesting, a lot of artists would immediately put out some sort of a statement saying that this is absolutely not true. You have fun with it.”
Lady Gaga: “Why the hell am I gonna waste my time and give a press release about whether or not I have a penis? My fans don’t care and neither do I.”Transcription end.]
Can you just imagine trying to explain to people 40 years ago or 40 years from now the amount of time actual US news reporters and politicians wasted asking intrusive questions about people’s genitals before audiences of millions while refusing to discuss global warming which we already knew about in the 80s
