this is why i think what's needed is for people to wholesale rewrite things, let the people with emotional investment rip out the good bits and make them their own, it's both therapy for the new author and rehabilitation for the work.

bury his name, rip the story and setting out of his creepy hands and reclaim it. Write fanfiction that specifically shits on rapey shitheads.
the first movies are pretty decent, but i do not fathom how it continued past.. idk, the fourth? and then became a different series set in the same universe
like the setting is interesting but not that interesting, and it very much falls apart if you scrutinize it too close. It's basically just a theme park in story form: good atmosphere and some specific memorable bits, but it's only good if you go there for a few hours then leave and go on with your life and maybe revisit every few years.
i'm a believer that we should just consider the works forfeited to the public domain and let the author's name be forgotten to time, let the future think of it as we think about german fairytales.
honestly even without it being the same as a slur it would only sound right coming from an aussie, otherwise it doesn't feel like a natural shortening
"body length" is quite a poor way to communicate the size of a spider, you really want legspan.
there's the slight alleviating factor of most people not living in lakes
huhuhuhuhuhuhuhh
pen and paper (or a fucking text document) is also notoriously unlikely to send your data to the pentagon
plus it's such a horrendously complex thing that you definitely can't largely figure out on your own
hey my infant keeps leaking this foul smelling brown stuff, what's going on??? if only i had access to AI so i could figure this out..
no thanks for their contributions, take the contributions but don't thank them for it.
You made this? nope, you've forfeited your right to claim authorship of it, it's ours now, get fucked
