I really thought Twoflower literally had four eyes.
if you think it’s legit to bully and insult complete strangers online over a difference of opinion about fictional characters, you need to stop and sort out your bullshit

Tumblr is a social media platform in some of the worst ways because you end up with an audience you basically have no control over, and that mega sucks because people just say things.
I say this as a person who only has like 20 Facebook mutuals and has her own account as on lockdown as possible, though, so I’m biased.

He’s one of the first authors to put a Trans protagonist in a mainstream comic book.
There’s a kindly elderly lesbian couple in Coraline (and he says they are lesbians).

The character he created for Spawn (now owned by Marvel) Angela, is a lesbian in a loving relationship with a trans woman.

And there’s Loki in Neil’s book on Norse Mythology.

There’s also quite a few LGBT+ characters in Neil Gaiman’s Sandman, which include:
Paul and Alexander Burgess (male couple),

Judy (lesbian),

Donna AKA Foxglove (lesbian),

Hazel (lesbian),

Cluracan (Bisexual),

Wanda (Trans woman),

Desire (Genderfluid and panasexual),

The Corinthian (gay),

John Constantine (bisexual),

All Neil Gaiman has said in the matter of Crowley and Aziraphale is that fans can interpret their relationship any way they want. Headcanons are your own. He just feels that to use human terms like gay / Straight / ect doesn’t actually fit because they aren’t human. So let’s make up a new LGBT+ friendly term for non-humans as he allows headcanons of all kinds and will not discourage them. How about Pan-Celestial? These characters only have gender if they will itand they only choose to be perceived as male. This is also true with Lucifer in the Sandman comics.
You mustn’t leap to conclusions. Neil has been an advocate for LGBT+ causes since the 80s (if not earlier).
Also Neil Gaiman is a MAJOR Bowie and Queen fan, so much so that his version of Lucifer (Basis for the Netflix character) was modeled after David Bowie.
Also Neil Gaiman, himself, clicked link on a post of mine about shipping Morpheus with Daniel from Sandman. Does that even remotely sound like a homophobe to you, kids?
When Tumblr wants to lynch someone they should REALLY learn the facts first, m’kay?

Get the fuck away from Neil. He is not only a supporter of fanfic writing but actually published a fucking collection of Sandman fanfic (one entry was given to him to read by the author at a book signing)
What the fuck??????
How do you go from “I will not give non-textual answers about my work” to “homophobic”? That’s a leap with no ground on either side of the gap.

what is fanfiction for if not to write your own chronic back pain into a main media character on whom you’ve imprinted?

Official translations of Good Omens I’ve read and that one line, you know the one:
@neil-gaiman and Terry Pratchett: “Just remember I’ll have known that, deep down inside, you were just enough of a bastard to be worth liking”.
Russian translation #1: “Remember: I will know that, deep down inside, you were enough of a scoundrel for me to like you”
Russian translation #2: “Just remember that I will always know that in some sacred corners of your soul you are a bastard to enough of a degree to be worthy of love”
Ukrainian translation: “I just want you to remember: I’ve never doubted that deep down in your soul you are enough of a bastard to be worth loving.”
Put your favorite translation in the tags I prefer the Ukrainian one.
