This man is a monster. He seeks out women survivors because he hates them. And he hates them because he hates himself. He has harassed me and other women survivors many times over the years. It must end. He should never have a job anywhere.

After being raped by a man on my hall sophomore year, I couldn’t leave my dorm room for weeks and failed several classes. I had to take out student loans so I could retake those credits. We almost never talk about the financial toll of campus sexual assault on survivors.

I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming

She was doxxed by a Chi Phi alum who implored his followers to “help a Chi Phi.” Just in case anyone thought that organization was remotely redeemable.

Men, it’s never too late to leave your fraternity. Membership is lifelong. And these segregationist institutions use your name to uphold the power they abuse. This is what your fellow alums are doing. Do you really want to be associated with that?

Dear @erc.europa.eu , we DO already have common standards & frameworks. 'AI' likes to pose itself as 'special' but we do not need to reinvent the wheel. We already have established codes of conduct for research integrity. We just need to apply them. See below + more resources in thread🧵

Protecting the Ecosystem of Human Knowledge: Five Principles
We must protect and cultivate the ecosystem of human knowledge. AI models can mimic
the appearance of scholarly work, but they are (by construction) unconcerned with truth
— the result is a torrential outpouring of unchecked but convincing-sounding “informa-
tion”. At best, such output is accidentally true, but generally citationless, divorced from
human reasoning and the web of scholarship that it steals from. At worst, it is confidently
wrong. Both outcomes are dangerous to the ecosystem.
Olivia Guest, Iris van Rooij, Marcela Suarez, et al. (2025, n.p.)
Knowledge production is supposed to be safeguarded by (inter)national codes of conduct for research
integrity (ALLEA 2023; KNAW et al. 2018). Such codes forbid, for instance, fabrication of data,
falsification of results, plagiarism, and, generally, distortion of the scientific record. Many argue that
new rules are required to regulate academic AI use, but pre-existing guidelines fit the bill (cf. Tafani

JFC. A trans man was gunned down in public in front of dozens of people including children. The media is certainly painting this as "he said/she said custody/domestic abuse" They both had restraining orders but he was charged & released & alleged both his wife & her parents had abused him

i can't afford a therapist, but *this* is almost free & once again, i was all alone up there this evening. A long overdue visit with my oldest local friend, the "backyard" lake. The campground closed early this year - no more Canadian Thanksgivings up there, i guess 😿 Thread incoming (finally)

Mountain lake, the water nearly perfectly still. it is early on a fall evening & the season is evident in the brown of the shoreside vegetation which has mostly died back for the season. The snowless peak is just peeking out from behind some trees at the far end of the lake, beginning to take on a purplish glow from the setting sun

the horrific cornell gang rape case has me thinking about emma sulkowicz who alleged she was raped as a student at columbia in 2014 and never got any justice. it has me thinking about the physical and mental weight young women are forced to carry while their safety is subsumed by male potential.

If you’re a survivor who wants your rapist removed from whatever social institution introduced you, that’s an okay thing to want. A lot of other survivors want it too. And in a different timeline, there wouldn’t be so many people shaming you for saying it out loud.
