There are studies that look at online dating messages, and assign users a rating based on how often a new person messages them, and how often their messages get replies. Men will, on average, try to only date women who are their age or younger. A 50-year-old man is more likely to proposition a 20-year-old woman than a 60-year-old woman.

Also I believe there is a sex scene between Lee and Mary Custis and okay on one hand Turtledove is a gross weirdo who has always put pointless weird sex scenes in every book he's ever written but on the other hand there's nothing wrong with two people in their mid-50's loving and having a mutual fun time

That was justified in the plot, because it was an example of the Union's last-ditch efforts to use ginger as a chemical weapon once it was discovered the herb drives Confederate troops into uncontrollable sexual frenzy

"i'm not a nazi, i just give money to nazis and wear their advertising on my chest." -perturbator, 2022

I believe him when he says "i'm not a nazi". He probably isn't, in the most literal way, but the out-and-out hardcore Nazis have always been a minority, even in 1930s Germany. The true Nazis are empowered by the majority of complacent, well-meaning liberals who wish to avoid conflict (both in the material world and in their own mind) by refusing to mentally and ethically engage with the evils of nazism. Or worse, they may be the sort of person who thinks, "I'm not a nazi; I don't think all Jews should be gassed; that's monstrous! But, they do have some good points about international bankers and illegal immigration and race-mixing and. . ."

I personally have no place in my life, even among people as inconsequential as the artists of the music I listen to, for those who would collaborate with and be the tools of Nazis. If you have a place in your life for them, I suggest you re-evaluate it, consider it carefully. If you still choose to listen to his music, do so after having fully evaluated what that means - don't just brush away the thought too quickly with some vague gesture towards "death of the artist." And if you find that you can compartmentalize it in your mind and still enjoy his music, good for you, I guess. I can't. But please at least refrain from giving him any money.

Don't have expectations from artists and you'll never be disappointed.

Serious talk: When it comes to media that you watch/listen for your own sake, especially if it's first world media, you kinda need to ignore the artists themselves. Because holy poo poo, once you start looking them up, the bullshit just never ends.
(That having been said, I am suddenly reminded of the Belgrade Trots who apparently played Tompson at parties 'ironically'. Uh, don't be those guys either.)


Do seek out cool art done by cool people if you can (Boots Riley is a pretty cool guy who made some pretty cool things)

I think this is just true of people; like humans in general. I am increasingly disappointed to see how so many well-meaning people will jump on every grenade and are willing to die on every hill for their principles. It's commendable, to be sure, but extremely isolating and further waters down their argument. Pick your battles, you know, there are no messiahs to follow.
