Alan Moore lives in a castle and actively hates the world. He's my role model.

he’s the opposite of Rowling, who lives in a castle and hates only certain minority groups
The difference is Rowling hates you for who you are, Moore hates you for what you've done.
And he has the records.
Just like Santa, he’s making a list.
I would like to subscribe to the same newsletter, please. 🙇🏽♀️
It was called Dodgem Logic, and it was glorious. It ran for 8 issues, was filled with articles written by Moore and others on whatever damn subject they wanted, from supernatural to philosophical, to just plain weird (a comic called Astounding Weird Penises). There were also short stories and illustrations. I have every issue and they have a place of pride in my collection for how wonderful they are.
Is his castle anywhere near Enya's castle?
I used to work with a guy who used to be a mall Santa. He was fired for showing up drunk too many times and then became a Santa at a Christmas tree farm.
He smelled of bourbon and cigarettes every time I ever saw him; his teeth were dark brown and visibly decaying.
Man, he had some stories. They were all lies, but stories nonetheless.
Isn't this a character in Home Alone?
Heh, I forgot about that scene. Funny enough, I worked there around the same time that movie came out.
Our guy looked more like Marv and was way less coherent, but I suppose they didn't get the idea for the scene from nowhere :)
The ghost of Christmas future
"You've never messed with Santa Claus, have you?"
More wizard posting pls.
Well considering how Moore thinks about magic, you might say he actually is a wizard.
Ah the favorite author of like half the casually left wing men I've met. They ain't even wrong for it, V for Vandetta was incredible and I do mean to get around to Watchmen.
Why did you meet so many wing men, and why did they leave casually?
Because I flirt with women at a bar awkwardly but effectively. These guys offer help but then see i don't need it
I'm the other way around. Read Watchmen countless times, while Vendetta is still on my shelf, waiting to be read
Vandetta is rough, but it's a remarkably prescient look at fascists. It shows them as the dangerous, evil, and pathetic losers they are and the mass of suffering they leave in their wake. It's also incredibly sexual, but in a "fascists deeply tie sex and abuse together in both directions" way

Thank you.
Has it ever occurred to anyone else that Alan Moore and Richard Stallman are basically the same person in terms of personalities lol...
