So you're anti-inheritance too, right? Because you didn't earn it?

If an author left the rights to their family, why is that a bad thing? People in other professions do that all the time.

[(Anonymous)]

I mean. editors and typesetters and so on need to eat as well, and your favorite books would not exist in their current form or have reached you without them. most publishing houses operate on quite thin margins. not every company is disney.

[(Anonymous)]

I see your point, for the most part, but what about when their work is still supporting their (non-adult) children?

[(Anonymous)]

Can't you just check the books out of the library? Or are they just not available there?

[(Anonymous)]

Ah yes, fuck those widows and children and also all those people who worked closely with your favorite author and are probably deeply saddened by their loss.

[(Anonymous)]

I am astonished at the thought that goes into people's purchasing choices, every day.

[dantesspirit]

Generally when an author dies, their estate gains control, which means *descendants of said author*.

So, essentially what you're saying is, the author's spouse or kids, etc, don't deserve the royalties, which basically are inheritance.

Do you feel the same about other ways people inherit things too, or just books in particular?

Because that's a really odd way to look at inheritance- 'You didn't create/earn it, you don't deserve it.'

Anyone who thinks the fiction publishing industry is "predatory" is grossly uninformed and their opinions are nothing but self-serving lies.

It is certainly a trippy experience.

[(Anonymous)]

I really want to watch it, it looks so weird and good and I love everyone involved in making it

[(Anonymous)]

I couldn't get into it. The first time I saw it I wasn't even sure what I was looking at.

I'm willing to try it, but I wasn't overly into the original. I will definitely miss a lot of the OG actors, though, but I think it could be good.

I was sympathetic until "taxes for thee but not for me, boo hoo no more tax evasion"

As a pleb working a ~regular job~ paying their fair share to societal services, I am no longer sympathetic.
