"What to do about Jacob Geller" I dunno, move on? A single person's work is not so integral and sacred that we need to wring our hands about what to do with it. There are a lot of people whose work you could be reading or listening to. Stop making icons out of random dudes. is that so hard

the thing about Ensign Kellogg on TNG being played by a stealth trans woman really is like we as a community always say…we've ALWAYS BEEN HERE. Just because people didn't realize it doesn't mean we weren't here.

The current situation is the only time I have ever seen talk about restorative justice wrt an outed abuser. I have never seen this supposed compassion directed towards a person of color or trans person accused (often falsely or with exaggeration) of abuse.

The context of *this* wave of visceral rage at rapists is that in the past decade we've seen them take complete control of the government, turn the entire economy into their ponzi scheme, gain trillions of dollars of exploited wealth. We've seen an opposition party abjectly fail at stopping them

But when a member of an oppressor or aggressor or privileged caste - white people, Israelis, cis men - we are immediately told the thought terminating cliché that it was solely the fault of the killer being a bad person and society had nothing to do with it.

When a marginalized person is killed - Black people, Indigenous people, Palestinians, women, trans people, sexual assault victims - we are told we must immediately examine everything they might have done to contribute to their own deaths.

It's weird how we must examine everything Israel does in the context of October 7 but nothing that happens to Jews or Israelis can never be viewed in the context of Israel doing genocide in Occupied Palestine.

Huh. Today in "always look up the etymology because sometimes you're just repeating a myth but sometimes it's weirder and more incredible than you could have possibly imagined" www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/c...
Screenshot of Merriam Webster etymology note for cockamamie: 
By the look and sound of it, cockamamie (also spelled "cockamamy") could have something to do with a rooster and the outrageous sound it makes. But in fact, cockamamie is believed to be an altered form of the term decalcomania, which refers to the process, invented in the mid-19th century, of transferring pictures and designs from specially prepared paper to surfaces such as glass or porcelain. (The word referring to the picture or design itself, decal, is a shortening of decalcomania.) The word decalcomania comes from French, with décalcomanie combining the verb décalquer, meaning "to trace" or "to transfer by tracing," and -manie, meaning "-mania." Starting in the 1930s, painted strips of paper with images capable of being transferred to the skin were called decals or—in children's slang—cockamamies. Those familiar with today's temporary tattoos will understand quickly that these were regarded by many as silly novelties, lending the word cockamamie the necessary leeway for application to anything ridiculous.

This is multiplicative for marginalised women, too, not just in the harassment and violence inflicted but in the social calculus they must perform. More places becoming unsafe, harassment escalating more quickly or more severely.

But also in 2020 there was a leaked memo where tiktok was instructing workers to keep the poors and uglys (fat people, little people, people with deformities etc) from showing up on the For You tab. And there's no reason to think that any other algorithmic feed you interact with is any less biased.

People aren't born rapists or murderers or terrorists. Society makes them that way. I will take that to my grave. People aren't born good or bad either. We are what we do: no more and no less. And that also means that what we do is a series of responses to the events of our lives.

You'd be sitting here saying Nat Turner's rebellion had nothing to do with chattel slavery, and Little Big Horn had nothing to do with ethnic cleansing of Indigenous people and the Shoah had nothing to do with the Warsaw Ghetto because after all killing is wrong always and only bad people do it.

10/7 was by bad people so understanding what led to it is necessarily saying defending everything about it because the real reason is just that Hamas is bad people. If you enter the US illegally, you're a bad person, therefore there's no justification because you did it because you're a bad person.

and therefore any attempt to learn "why" people do things is necessarily defending them because the only possible reason is they're just bad people. Israel can't be committing genocide because they're good people and good people don't commit genocide.

Those arguing for mass-adoption of AI art always seem intent on proving the wrong thing; that AI tech will change beyond all recognition. They seem less inclined to prove their argument's much wilder claim; that human nature, and all previous modes of taste, emotion and investment, will change too.

We've had the ability to watch, say, Counterstrike marathons, Street Fighter tournaments, or chess matches between computers since the 90s. Spectacles which, by their very definition, would be at a "higher standard" than human play. And nobody wants it. It's entirely meaningless. It has no appeal.

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.
