I have an in-law who's a vegan and explained it as "if I consume less there's a tiny bit less cruelty. A tiny bit less demand." I like that. It's not about purity. It's about trying.

I'm still not vegan. I suppose that doesn't say good things about me.

    Bitter gourd curry. Was so so so bitter. I'll bet it tastes different to different folks.

    Reminds me of a migraine medicine. I have to eat candy for a few hours after taking that.

    Oh wild. When I first saw this on lemmy it was white and gold. Then I clicked the image and looked and thought, "yeah, that's what I figured." Then I scrolled up and it was blue and brown. Can see white and gold again. Fun.

    I've read a bunch from both authors and think your point checks out. Gainan has much more variety. I'm not sure it matters though.

    My guess, worthless as it is, is that Gaiman's best works celebrated the marginalized. Loved them and taught you to love them. Respected them. His work taught people that his actions are terrible.

    On the other hand, Stardust. Maybe my guess is totally wrong. Shrug

    There's a book called Catch 22. Looks like the made a movie of it. The book is the funniest thing I've ever read. Made me think about how crazy fighting is. Sort of like a funny Slaughterhouse-Five.

    Neither mentioned illegal orders as far as I remember. Was the movie quite different?
