I laughed out loud at this. The replies are excellent as well.

Never understand how, given the thousands of insulting messages she gets, she can lift out ones like this and turn them into comedy gold. Love the reply given by one poster that this was Harry Potter & the Deathly Mallows!!

Brill!
I vaguely remember a reply she made once to a similar tweet about burning her books, something like:
'Every time one of my books is burnt, the royalties disappear from my bank account'

Any chance of screen shots for those of us unable to access X? Thanks!

Here's the original tweet.

Here you go

Xpost!

Some replies.

More.

Best two people on the internet for burning idiots:

JKR and James Blunt.

(You don't have to appreciate their artistic work to appreciate their to the point take downs).

Thanks MissScarletInTheBallroom, I'm not on X either and would have missed out on the excellent replies.
There's one that says when you burn a HP book, 'a phoenix rises from the ashes'..
and there was me thinking that the legendary Prof. Jo had just been born in the usual way

Using the word 'books' twice in the same sentence <shudder>. You'd think, of anyone, a TA would use 'them'.

Clearly I'm old-fashionedly educated but weren't actual Nazis literally famous for burning books?

I'm really not sure "you're evil so I burned your books" really works outside Middlearth.

Yes they were.

Trans activists will also tell you that the Nazis burned research about trans people.

In fact they burned the research library of a sexologist who happened to be both gay and Jewish.

Some of the replies are comedy gold 😂

I love it when JKR has time for Twix. She’s on fire today.

For those who don't have twitter, so can't see Dame Katy Denise's profile picture clearly enough, it's Jack Duckworth from Coronation Street in drag - it's a spoof account that JK likes to play along with sometimes (some TRAs claim it's actually her but I have no knowledge of that either way).

As an alternative to Twitter

I enjoyed this exchange.

Her response is the Twitter equivalent of the 💅 emoji.

I went to the Farms (Rowling Derangement Syndrome - "TERF/Woke Author Bad!!1" pg 416) to see if they had picked up on the marshmallow tweet/Xeet. I stole found these screenshots of some TRA replies.

Also, some TRAs are still dreaming of JKR being stripped of her rights to her creation (pg 417) including this weird comment about Voldemort. Some Farmers are amused that some TRAs cling to this idea that JKRs intellectual property can be taken away from her and compared them to 'toddlers throwing a tantrum'.

Apologies for the sensitive content blur on one photo, it was an accident and I can't edit it apparently!

One of them said he'd pirated her books, so presumably, he burned his Kindle?

Doggydoggy sounds like an utterly charming individual. You can just feel the love when reading their eloquent prose, and finished off with a kiss too!

Isn't Dame Katy a parody account? They seem to have quite the double act going.

I'm curious (and I'd probably regret it) about the IW tweet following James Dreyfus.

Those sweary ta tweets, those people are just vile.

Edited to add

Just seen pp post about the parody account. Thought so 😁
