Final bit of advice. Please don't do this. It does make you look a touch hypocritical.
oddtail:
I think the sad thing is, I do share some concerns about Marten and Claire's relationship as something that might not work story-wise.
I'm just not a big fan of the package the concern was put into. It's one thing to dislike something about a work of fiction, and another to go on a rather rude and unpleasant rant about how the author is this or that, or the motivations behind their work, or what-have-you. Which has nothing to do with anything even if it were true.
(also, conflating liberals with the left. LOL)

--- Quote from: Blackest Duct Tape on 08 Dec 2019, 21:56 ---He lives off of donations and handouts from the readers, and makes a damn good living for someone who doesn't actually work for a living. That's why it rings hollow when he tries to preach about wealth hoarding or privilege in his comics. He has so much disposable income and so much free time that he can put out awful music and drop t-shirt designs while the majority of his readership toils...

What evidence have you that Jeph doesn't work for his living? - the comics don't come from nowhere. And the "donations and handouts" are not charity - they are his readers' response to the work he does for them; payment for his job, in fact.
Equally, what evidence have you that he has "so much disposable income and so much free time" beyond what anyone doing a successful job might have? Should he not have free time to pursue the hobbies you dislike? Your snipe about "while the majority of his readership toils" smacks to me of jealousy at his success.

LOL at the creep with the bizarre hateboner for me

Also BenRG is mistaken, I learned to stop reading internet posts about my comic years ago. It's not healthy behavior, for me at least. I pop in here from time to time if I see a reported post in my inbox.
