    If you have a problem with unfinished works, don’t ingest them until they’re finished. The artist doesn’t owe you anything.

      I didn’t say anything remotely close to saying artists owed me anything. Dude bit off more than he can chew.

      I have a right to be frustrated when I’m invested in a story and it just stops.

        Similarly he had a right to not finish the book- what you don’t have is a right to tell other people what to do.

        If you can’t finish it, then don’t fucking start it.

        This is neither a simple expression of frustration nor is it a criticism.

        It is a command.

        Hence why you’re being called entitled.

          You need to let it go, or get over whatever this weird outrage this is that you are having.

          I can feel however I want, you don’t get to gatekeep that.

          I didn’t tell George RR Martin to do anything. I said a line on a social media forum.

          You are choosing to take my words in the way you are describing and not in the way I intended. That is a form of manipulation and gas lighting. Especially after I clarified.

          Who called me entitled? I guess I missed that. That’s a weird take, whoever said it.

            You don’t have a right to command me, either. Lol.

              “You need…”

              Is not a command…

              You keep placing false intent and meaning. That is a form of manipulation and gas lighting.

        Be sure to tell your grandkids it has real potential and they should check it out once the series is complete.
