picture is of a Hatsune Miku edited to be sitting at a table from a Calvin and Hobs comic, with a sign on the front of the table reading "Hatsune Miku (creator of Minecraft) is very deserving of this meme format"

Is that hatsune miku, the author of harry potter and creator of minecraft?

[–] Wirlocke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah the author of Harry Potter! Though the antisemitic goblins and slave apologizing elves were added later by an editor.

I think her name was Joe Karen Rowboat or something?

Of course miku would never write such drivel 😤 i heard she had to hire a ghostwriter bc she was too busy with her music career back then

It is a shame that the joe (mama) karen ended up being such a fucking weirdo tho

It sure is!! I wasn’t sure how prolific the HP reclaiming was, so I only included Minecraft, but I’m glad she’s been given the credit she deserves for her writing.

Its not unusual to forget her contribution to HP, since she only wrote the good parts
