To shut down rude behavior instantly, try a simple yet powerful five-word response.

Use this 5-word phrase when someone is rude to you—it's like 'holding up a mirror,' says public speaking expert

my 2nd most non woke opinion is that detroit become human is good . i honestly think it would be a better story if you cut out the marcus and kara parts because theyre cage at his worst but the connor stuff is actually really good. i love his identity crisis when he keeps coming back from death

full offense to bitmap books what kind of rubes are they that they thought it was a good idea to get a book written by someone who has a history of being a prick. like this is just a comedic series of errors at this point, the writer should not have been on board to begin with

Kurt @ Hardcore Gaming 101 @hg101.bsky.social · 1d

I've been doing some asking around and while I'm not speaking in any official capacity, Bitmap was not aware that this author was going to post this and is not happy about it

Danny Page @danny.page · 1d

<butterfly meme> this is contrition?

the cool thing about this is that none of these "anti-cancel culture" people that pressured them to do this actually buy anything so its going to be funny when dyer and bitmap books comes crawling back for respect when the numbers start coming in

incredible work torching down your company's entire reputation on an thoroughly mediocre writer. they should make a darwin award for executive decisions like this

Monday 6th October 2025

Dear supporters of Bitmap Books,

Although I stand by the fact that Moses’ comments were ill-advised and insensitive, the whole thing blew up and was made much bigger than it needed to be. Moses has publicly apologised for any offence caused, as has the original poster of the comments who did not intend to cause this much trouble. I do not feel that this warrants an author losing his livelihood and ruining years of hard work to produce the book.

Despite multiple accusations to the contrary, Moses freely agreed to donate his royalties to charity. There was no coercion from me, however we both recognise that due to an increasingly stressful situation that decisions were rushed on both sides. I’m pleased to say that Moses and I have spoken again today, we stand together, and have agreed that he will receive 100% of his royalties.

Maybe I was hasty in my response, and I’m happy to admit to that. At the time I sincerely thought I was doing the right thing to diffuse an increasingly difficult situation. I will commit to donating all company profits from this first print run to the charity, Special Effect.

The bottom line is that is that Moses has apologised for his original comments, and will now be paid the royalties that are rightfully his.

Moses and myself have received a large amount of personal abuse and threats over the past few days. We hope that this statement will bring some closure to what has happened.

Sam Dyer, founder of Bitmap Books
