like, we all know the essential Stargate SG1 scene where Teal’c joins the team, right? this is universal knowledge. That, but it’s Wyll and Shadowheart, his first sidekick recruit.

Wyll, strapped to a torture table in the Shar temple dungeon because he got caught sneaking around trying to investigate a series of disappearances in the area (those people are all strapped to other torture tables or will be soon). To the pale acolyte whose hands are trembling as she’s about to start vivisecting him, her jaw set with determination to do it anyway, he shows how he’s picked the locks on his cuffs and whispers, fierce but quiet so her supervisor can’t hear, “I can save these people! Help me!”

Shadowheart, who really hates torture class, looks at him with the fear of the customarily obedient—then her jaw firms even tighter, as does her grip on the scalpel, and she says, “Many have said that. But you are the first I believe could do it!”

If not, why do you think that is?

I also do not think that supporting those people’s careers is a great thing to do while they’re still hurting people.

Neil Gaiman is an exceptionally rich outlier by writer standards because of his work in tv and film and he has an estimated net worth of $10 million

Stephen King is even more of an outlier with an estimated net worth of $500 million

Rowling currently as I’m writing this has an estimated net worth of $1.2 billion. Billion with a B.

She is the wealthiest author in all of history. Not just currently. Of all time. And she uses that power to fuck over trans people. She actively funds anti-trans court cases. She uses her considerable influence to donate money to and champion anti-trans legislation. She doesn’t stop tweeting.
