There really are no wrong answers. The JDATE books are cosmic reality bending lovecraftian horror, and the Zoey books are a Bladerunner-esque sci-fi about a future you can see from here. The first thing i read of his was John Dies At The End, and I think that is a really good place to start.

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Nearly 800 infant remains found in septic tank at nun-run Irish unwed mother and baby home3·11 hours agoDo you think they had a valid and good reason to hide 800 dead babies in a septic tank?
But, why did you watch the whole thing?
Sure.
You could have just said no.
Do you outspokenly apply this criticism to other creators in the comments sections, as that is a very standard criticism in this genre of creators, even amongst the most celebrated of them, or just Pizzacake?
If he was still using the pseudonym and making excuses to keep using it, sure, but I’m of the opinion that once someone understands what they have done wrong and took the opportunity to learn from it and do better there is no more wrong doing. There are, of course, exceptions to this, but a pseudonym that someone came up with in their 20’s and had the wherewithal later to say, “That’s not ok, I need to stop doing that” and stopped doing that for the right reasons is pretty far from a reason to call them problematic, especially when it wasn’t a decision made under any form of duress and he has made no attempt at defending his choice to have used that pseudonym and stated it was not ok for him to have used that pseudonym.
He stopped using it for that very reason, and took accountability. People are allowed to self correct, if he understands the problem with what he did and course corrected without being called out for it what would throwing more stones accomplish?
Edit: Also, not a big enough deal to say you shouldn’t read his books.
What are your specific criticisms?
I have this same skill, but with voice actors.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.worldOPto Warhammer 40k@lemmy.world•If you haven't checked out Blinded By Daylight on YouTube then you are seriously missing out.English1·14 hours agoNo need to apologize! Thanks for letting me know about them, they’ve got more than enough on their YouTube channel to keep me entertained and it’d be obtuse of me to ask for more, I’m more than happy to support them.
That whole series is as good as it gets for me, hands down. John, Dave, and Amy are the mother fuckin’ GOATS.
Edit: The Zoey Ashe and The Suits series is every bit as good if you’re into sci-fi, and Black Box of Doom is a fantastic stand alone story set in the modern world. Neither are connected to the reality or events of [UNDISCLOSED]. He’s also currently working on the next book in the JDATE series which will release next year.
I can work around everything other than the brushes, thats a deal breaker for me. I use brushes I picked up from Ross for $2 and they outperform those overpriced pieces of shit.
If anyone is looking for some
goodfucking amazing books by an awesome and genuinely fun and good natured dude, check out Jason Pargin, he is awesome and not problematic and his books are all bangers, and he also enabled and actively supports the careers of many other super awesome and creative people. Also, listen to Bigfeets.

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Nearly 800 infant remains found in septic tank at nun-run Irish unwed mother and baby home62·11 hours agoDon’t get off topic. Also, that’s speciesist, and just kind of rude.
The answer is the sponsors of this podcast!
Edit: Also, sharks would never do that, though. None of you have any reason to fear u-them.
Why did they hide them, then?
