I was sleepy when I saw this! big thanks to @bloody-disgusting.com for featuring PENITENTS as one of their most anticipated horror reads of October. pleased as punch to be alongside a killer line-up of other books (which you should also read!) 🩸

thinking about making a video on the three cameras that defined my childhood, not like a tech video so much as a video essay on memories etc. not sure if it's something people would be interested but also so lost on how to title something that is about my cameras and not media

generally, publicly admitting to a felony you never did time for is called "getting away with it," but apparently getting fired over it is "supporting the carceral model of justice"

Ok. Muting that man’s name now. I just don’t have the complicated feelings everyone else seems to. A man lost his role as a public-facing figure after his history of sexual assault came to light. That’s what’s supposed to happen. It’s what I wish happened more often.

just to clarify: he wasnt punished. he’s not a victim of the carceral state or retributive justice or the sex offender registry he is a privileged white guy who made some videos and said nice things about queer people, and got away with a sex crime he admitted to only after a record of it came out

he's not going to go to prison. he's not actually going to face any reasonable justice. that is a truth i hate but it is the truth. the least anyone could do is not pretend like he deserves to still have a fucking youtube channel and all the money he makes from it youtube is not a human right

this essay closes with this paragraph. i would like you to read that paragraph, and while you do, just repeat the phrase, 'he raped his girlfriend while she was unconscious' in your head see how much this flowery, forgiving language holds up
The more arduous position is to leave several truths standing alongside one another, where my anger at the situation, the internet discourse, and Jacob Geller’s actions can coexist. Somewhere between absolution and annihilation, there has to be a moral vocabulary capable of describing what happens after a human being does something unforgivable and nevertheless remains human. I don’t know what that vocabulary is yet; I only know that I desperately want us to keep looking for it.

we do not need to ask 'but what about rehabilitation, but what about his career, but what about if he gets better' he hid it for ten years. he knew exactly how vile it is. he knew it could destroy his career at any moment. that is not the action of someone who wants to get better and face justice.

if someone wrote an apologia piece like this about my rapist i would be utterly fucking incandescent. i'm sorry this is disgusting we do not, in fact, need to discuss the nuance of raping someone, facing no consequence, and then making tons of money over the next ten years as a public figure

I don’t know what restorative justice looks like in a case like this. I don’t know what it means to hold someone accountable. But I do know how painful it is to see someone admit to doing sexual violence against someone else and a crowd of people immediately rush to minimize it as a youthful mistake

What percentage of the story we have today might be all we ever get, or it might be just the beginning. You have to wait and see how this unfolds and what the consequences for Geller actually even are before you start waffling about whether he deserves more sympathy!

Simply way too soon to write this article. For all we know right now, he could disappear forever or just keep uploading videos monthly like nothing happened. A statement from the victim could be posted tomorrow or never. There could be 0 or 20 other victims currently working up the courage to speak.

We as a society have a perversion for punishment and heavily focus on perpetrators and how their actions affect them instead of survivors. That's where this line of thinking comes from.

Hey, so being an abolitionist doesn't change the fact I think someone who has sexually assaulted someone shouldn't hold positions of power. It means that I think they should still have access to basic human rights. Being an influencer is not a human right. Some of y'all have really lost the plot.

“What do you want past abusers to do? Just die or do nothing forever?” Okay no, but cool hyperbole. I DO think that if you’ve done something like that and actually want to repent, a certain level of disclosure is necessary—especially when you position yourself as a feminist and work with women.

props to the team at LiC for a swift and clear response. one thing to be aware of is they’re losing more than just refunds: there’s kill clauses for contributors, deposits lost on printers, the designers will need pay for the work they’ve already done. this is a big hit, so support them how you can

people that use “rehabilitative justice” rhetoric as a way to defend a rapist staying in a space are the same people that will tell a victim that it happened a long time ago and they need to get over it. you’re an enabler to rape culture, nothing more.

You can make better art than they could, because yours won’t be built on a lie about yourself. Everything they did, you can do with greater integrity and more honest introspection. It is impossible to be honest and hide yourself at the same time, and it is impossible to essay without being honest.
