      Lost Girls. Alice, Dorothy, and Wendy swapping sex stories while snowed in at a hotel.

        Wow. That synopsis seems problematic. Why do some artists insist on injecting child sexuality themes into their art? Garth Nix, Stephen King, Alan Moore, tons of rockstars (although we know why with those guys), can it really just be that they’re all secretly pedophiles and just super bad at hiding it?

          What’s hilarious is that the critics were trying to dance around it calling it “Art” and “Literature” and Moore was adamant: “No, it’s porn.”

            Yeah I saw that. Hilarious. Whatever you tell them it is they will say it’s the opposites. Art critic is a bullshit job.

          In fairness, Lewis Carroll and J.M. Barrie were also pretty problematic in their own ways. Not sure about Baum.

          Turns out Baum was also problematic, just “not that way!”

            Oh I know they were. Lewis Carroll was almost certainly a pedophile himself wasn’t he?

            Like that doesn’t make this okay thought.

              Carroll and Barrie both had problematic relationships with children.
