THINGS JK ROWLING HAS SHAMEFULLY REFUSED TO COMMENT ON

[RoyalCorgi]

There's been a spate of threads recently about things JK Rowling has shamefully failed to comment on. Wouldn't it be easier to put them all in a single thread?

I'll start.

JK Rowling has shamefully failed to comment on the Manchester City fraud scandal.

She hasn't said a word about my bin day being changed from Tuesday to Wednesday

Google Beira's Place. That's her choice, her motivation, her part of advocacy and campaigning. TRAs constantly try to get it closed down.

Which one is that? I’m up to the beginning of number 5, the one the TRAs had a meltdown about in 2020.

Did he ask nicely or just bark at her?

He just gave her 'the eyes'.

Not a word of sympathy from JK when my cat woke me up at 4.30am nor has she gone to get me a jumper out the wardrobe despite the fact I’m sat here with goosebumps.

Sainsbury's substituted my cod fish fingers with pollock fish fingers. I mean that was 4 hours ago, not a word. This clearly means she is transphobic.

I realised what @Canadanian 's claim, that this thread was somehow disrespectful to someone's pain, reminded me of. It's Malcom Muggeridge failing to understand what the Life of Brian was ridiculing. And like MM @Canadanian of course also came to this debate with an 'open mind'

Don't be fooled - he can be a vicious little sod when the mood takes him! I blame JKR of course.

Like this?

I am now wholly here for the animal pictures.

Happy days.

Although has JKR shared one yet? Has she? Anywhere?

THAT WOMAN.

or this?
I think it's trying too hard to please you - it's not a rat, that's a false moustache, and it's a girl. A bit too 'Pick me, pick me!'

[credit where credit is due, somebody at the Bluestocking created that Poirot-esque gerbil image, can''t remember who, sorry. Not me anyway.]

Blimey! That's a blast from the past. I remember being still at school and watching that, and thinking how utterly dim MM, was for a supposed clever man.

I'm going to deviate into seriousness briefly to point out that there are over 440,000 rapes and sexual assaults in the USA every year.
There's no excuse for not condemning every single one of them-
it's only 1,200 to condemn every day for 365 days, for heaven's sake, any real feminist would have worked that out.

I have literally zero clue whether she was Team Johanne or Team Rochelle on Big Brother.

SHOOKETH!!

Fuck me, that dreadful woman’s crimes just mount up don’t they?

The usual suspects have galumphed in with their whataboutery and mainsplaning of feminism, which I’m sure is her fault somehow.

The death of my violas goes unmourned by her.

My bookshelf is untroubled by the ninth Strike novel. Stop pissing about on TwiX woman and WRITE. Is Robin going to stay with the ghastly Murphy? Will Strike’s love be unrequited? Will Pat intervene as an unlikely, fish-bothering Cupid? WE NEED TO KNOW.

And she has remained steadfastly silent - and brace yourselves, because this is her most heinous crime - on the unacceptable existence of celery. Just think, with her riches the world could be rid of this stringy horror and yet it persists.

Utterly shameful. If you’re reading this, JKR, I hope you feel the full weight of my disappointment and disapproval, Lady Catherine de Bourgh-style. I take no leave of you.

That would be amazing, but we both know she isn't going to do that!

Come now, we all know that due process matters not when there is virtue to be signalled and/or something can be used as a stick with which to beat awkward wims.

And, as you suggest, the best way to address this issue is tweets.

Naysayers might suggest that she might be more effective taking practical action more locally, perhaps by working with her friend Julie Bindel (co-founder Justice for Women), but that Bindel has tweeted some rather worrying views on Panettone, so honestly she needs to ditch that relationship.

Always remember, it's the tweets that matter.

Actually I'd like to know why she hasn't commented on one of the most contentious issues of the day ?
Shoes on/shoes off
I think she's too busy knocking back the whisky

Pro-pan or anti-pan?

Pan hater.

Panphobic?

That's the recorded ones - we all know it's far higher than that.

Here's to the generic condemnation of all violence, assault, aggression, intimidation, and invasion of the safety, privacy and dignity of women and girls (w&g excludes all forms of men).
