did anyone ever try to shoot the Animorphs

can you morph a bullet out of your body and then rip yourself in two by merit of the bullet being larger than you

morphing out of a bullet wound always made the shrapnel fall out of them, either popping out as they grew bigger or falling out as they shrank

my most vivid memory of the books is rachel morphing from elephant back to human and feeling the bullets she'd taken as an elephant fall free.

I actually wasn't expecting an answer to this, let alone the author being so succinct about it, but thanks all the same :confuoot:

I liked the one animorphs book where they discover that instant maple syrup oatmeal fucks up the yeerks

oh yeah, Cassie giving the morphing cube to the yeerks on the hunch that it would show them that the yeerks didn’t need to enslave creatures anymore to experience the world, they could just use the tech to become something new.

which is funny because the idea that the animorphs having a foe they created through them being assholes is a neat idea and I think that is what applegate was going for but David being a mustache twirling villain undercuts that

It's less that and more that as we get older we stop reading the same things so it's harder to talk about them compared to when we were kids and all read the same books

His "rapid response team" put something out on twitter last night saying essentially the same thing but I guess that must not have caught on as well as they liked.

the malazan books are by some kind of leftist and im p sure he's a strain of anarchist

also the second book ends with an entire army being crucified and its a happy ending

the new joe abercrombie book is about how capitalism is the devil set against a fantasy industrial revolution and theres an entire chapter of the poor rising up and dragging the rich fucks out of their homes where you just rotate pov through the mob, its cathartic as gently caress

I want to like the Malazan books, but they inevitably seem to end up with most every character being all woe is me my life is poo poo and it kinda starts dragging something fierce after a point.

Excepting that one huge ogre barbarian guy who just wrecks poo poo and calls out people for being whiny, he was a fun character.
