The body type and diversity is a definite issue, but for me because she doesn't really describe many characters thoroughly, it doesn't bother me too much. However something that does bother me is how it seems like we're incapable of doing anything remotely good, let alone remarkable. Apparently we're dumb killing machines that only make weapons and bombs; we can't make anything else. The elves claim that they were the ones who influenced and inspired all of our achievements and beloved traditions. They even made chocolate cake for us. They act as if there's nothing good about us and that we're like stupid copies of them. That's why I loved the gelato/ice cream scene in Neverseen and when they acknowledged that they don't have the music like we do. It proves we're different from them.

Also, even though being rich is cool and all, doing labour in order to survive and in order to do what you enjoy is very humbling. Humans have had to fend for themselves, fight even though the trauma scars them. Sure, they inflicted the war upon themselves, but like, so did the OGRES and the DWARVES and pretty much every other intelligent species.

Thanks for coming to my TED-talk.
