Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 4hNow it's coming to light that the DA in the Cornell case is covering up the crime. Horrific, but also not at all uncommon. It's important to not sensationalize this as some kind of rare occurrence. We can acknowledge how bad it is while also acknowledging that it's part of a systemic pattern. 000
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 4hMissing from their analysis, communication, and response to the issue was the fact that this horrific name given to the trail was *earned* by the young men at the school, and it served as a highly memorable warning to young Women to avoid it. At no point did the school try to fix the actual problem. 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 4hWhen I was a student at UCLA their was a footpath through a grassy hillside known as R*pe Trail, due to the repeated SA events that had occurred their, and the school admin responded to this by trying crack down on use the term to replace it with a sanitized name of their choosing. 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 4hI can't think of a reason why frat houses should exist. At their absolute "best" they're just reproducing social class for white boys from wealthy families (which is already bad, actually). And in reality the events like the brutally violent SA at Cornell are not at all uncommon. 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 18hJust saw some dude in a banjo forum saying he wants to start playing banjo and that he loves “20th century banjo music.” GOTDAM 💀 000
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 23hRemember that that W-word (referring to sex workers) is a slur, and like other slurs is usable only by people in the community that is targeted by that slur. I'm not a SWer, so I don't use the W-word, and most of you all shouldn't either. We can condemn usage of slurs without repeating them. 000
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026We can oppose those patriarchal comments that uphold rape culture without upholding SW-phobia ourselves, which in fact could be seen an aspect of rape culture in some ways. It is not OK to assault anyone, and that includes SWers. 000
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026In fact, some of the Women he has seen at the gym may well be sex workers, but that is entirely irrelevant because whether they really are the W-word or not has no bearing on whether SA is wrong. Yes, it's sexist to imply that Women are SWers due to clothing. But SA is wrong regardless of their jobs 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026It's not OK to assault sex workers. Make sure that when you rightly condemn Shane Gillis for his comments that uphold rape culture, you aren't implying that the Women at the gym aren't actually sex workers and therefore don't deserve SA. Nobody deserves SA, and sex workers can and do get SA'd too. 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Said in yet another way, too many “well meaning” people rightly pushing back on the misogyny while not questioning the SW-phobia, and in fact even upholding it their otherwise good posts on the matter. 000
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026That is, we can push back on him and the SNL showrunners being sexist and patriarchal without reinforcing the anti-SWer rhetoric (which is also itself an aspect of patriarchy). It is possible to do both. 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/10/2026An important piece that so many people are missing in the Shane Gillis discourse is that his comments were anti-SWer. So many people are saying that just because Women wear shorts doesn’t make them the W-word, which is true, but you can push back on the idea that being a SWer is worse possible thing 100
Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 12/10/2026My first thought when the Shane Gillis SNL discourse started was “Oh, it’s that guy who isn’t funny but who I keep seeing for some reason.” 010

Lucas Meadows @lucas-meadows.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Country music is not an underdog—it’s highly commercialized and homogenized pop music about products (beer, pickups, camo) for yt ppl in all urban and rural locales.
