Am I Being a Creep?

Claire Beans (she/they) and Han Koehle (any pronouns) welcome Caro (she/they) to discuss Gideon the Ninth, Chapter 10. We dig into the seventh's claim that she never lied and what that means about the text. Speculations are made about possible animal agriculture (cannibalism??) in the Empire. Late in the episode we promise to share a link to this artist. We talk about in-world taboos and address which ships make us personally the most uncomfortable as readers.
