nobody wants to be A Rapist but they also don't want to make sure their partners are enthusiastically consenting to and enjoying sex nobody wants to be An Abuser but they also don't want to make sure they're not hurting their partners or want to work through harm they cause

it should also be the choice of the victims if their abuse goes public. having people debate my abuse online would give me such bad OCD I would be debilitated at best lol

You should care more about whether or not you're hurting women, your partners, or anybody else than whether or not you meet some dictionary definition of being A Bad Guy.

known people who wanted to have sex and pushed until they got a yes, or ignored signs their partner wasn't having fun but didn't get told "no" so it wasn't Technically assault, they're not A Bad Guy

the past week has been upsetting and I dont want to spend all day talking. all ill say is that Ive known too many people who traumatized their partners and then turned around and said "well my behavior was not intended to harm and didn't meet this specific definition of abuse so I am not A Bad Guy"

The way the Cornell victim is being publicly disbelieved by a lot of journalists, officials, and online posters is also a warning shot to every other victim not to dare to actually pursue a case against your rapist lest you suffer the same fate. It’s a means of protecting the status quo

the defining games story of the last decade is when the dead cells team got a bunch of positive press for being a workers co-op but then the game was a huge hit and so they made a private company for all the new employees to scale up into while the “co-op” remained about ten people large lol

i know a lot of people really, really want gaza to be a two-sides issue that maps cleanly onto US electoral politics, but it isn't. the mainstream of both parties supports the genocide, because the US as an institution supports the genocide. i know that's uncomfortable but you can't run away from it

unionizing is hard work! it's worthwhile work, but its not easy and I don't like how many people chime in with off the cuff replies -or worse, victim blaming for not already being unionized- without thinking about how much work goes into it

Phi @phi.northsky.social · 30/09/2026
my new opinion is if you reply to any news story or vent post about how badly an industry treats it's workers with "unionize" you have to give your credentials for how you've unionized your work place first

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Michael Tracey is actively attempting to dox Jane Doe in the Cornell 7 rape case
Michael Tracey : If you happen to know who this Cornell "Jane Doe" is, get in touch and I would be happy to publish her name and identifying information. And yes -- this is 100% permitted under the First Amendment, whatever threats or emotional blackmail people might want to deploy"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)
