Sappho "Hey did you hear that Author was named after the guy who created Conversion Therapy? I also noticed they don't promote their Gay characters anymore"
Brick "Yeah, they helped out a Homophobic Right-Wing Christian recently too. It kinda tracks; they set up their charity with a big homophobe"
Helga "Oh but it gets better, after that they tried to defend themselves by saying multiple gay people supported her by speaking over gay voices."
Sappho "Such a Rowling, am I right?"

Get the Rowlingmug. Someone you genuinely don't want to mention because you're so dissapointed to even say their name. Unspeakable dissapointment.

Get the rowlingedmug. Staunchly religious.
Hym “Norm Macdonald blew up at a comedian (while he was hosting a game show) for insinuating that JK Rowling wasn’t religious claiming that she was staunchly religious and that she can be quoted (and I’m paraphrasing) saying that if you can’t see the religious iconography that aren’t really watching. Leave it to what’s-his-face to not know what he’s talking about... Again... And he’s crying because he feels bad for himself not because he’s just oh so compassionate.”
