we don't owe platforms to rapists, especially not on the left. that's not punitive justice, it's protecting survivors, both from being in communities with powerful abusers and from being constantly retraumatized by having the same shitty discourse about the same shitty men every six months

James Somerton became the whipping-boy of the internet over plagiarism and being an obnoxious shithead, but this guy's videos are good so now we have to handwring about whether or not this Literal Actual Admitted Rapist deserves to lose his cushy job as a public-figure internet-reviewer

People who were very mad about the Cornell rapists essays one week ago are lauding this apologia

imagine using the word "annihilation" to means "he shouldn't get to be a wealthy youtuber with an audience of millions anymore" what the fuck are we even doing anymore

The “restorative justice” convos around Geller l miss the point. Maybe he is/was on that path. But he is owed nothing from us and I have more empathy for victims who found comfort in his work (like myself, I own his fucking book) and now feel betrayed at having emotionally invested in an abuser.

There is no non-complicit enjoyment of Harry Potter, in 2026. Every time you stream a Harry Potter movie or buy one of her books, etc., you are helping her campaign to end trans lives, full stop.

Insta-blocking anyone who speaks positively about this show. Rowling is a bigot who is actively campaigning to make trans lives worse so if you watch this show I will assume you are a transphobe, end of.

A tough one to sit with--but we must--is that some people's ability to make good art in part derived from, or was protected by, the fact that they were enabling or doing terrible things. See also: We Need to Talk about Cosby doc. Even more troubling on this score: Read deep reporting on Alice Munro

one thing that would be cool, when prominent creators turn out to be terrible people, would be if we didn't have to go through this performative dance of insisting that their work was never good in the first place.

whole thread. CW rape. what we're seeing with elon's digital rape & CSAM machine is collective gleeful revenge by cis men as a group against women as a group, trans people, and yes even children, for the crime of resisting the status of sexual property. bringing down the boot.

Old Skies launches TOMORROW!! This game took five years to make. It's been a frigging roller coaster. I don't think I've written a game more personal than this. If this isn't a time for kisses and fireworks, what is? Wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/1346360/... #oldskiescountdown

Everything that’s wrong with society can be traced back to the decline in popularity of point-and-click adventure games. None of this would be happening if there was a AAA King’s Quest game every five years

Call your R reps. If you have a regional accent, make the most of it. Tell them you didn't vote for CANCER and ask them what the hell they're gonna do to stop Musk and Trump. reps.fyi

some people can stop financial support, separate art from artist, and preserve their relationship with the works. for me it’s so destabilizing and heartbreaking to know that when I was a kid seeking escape from my abusive situation, I lost myself in worlds created by monsters.

thread, with emphasis on this, having spent the past month on a hair trigger myself. It’s not just because of Gaiman and the filthy feeling once again of primally influential art having been created by a predator. it’s the heartsicknesses that the rape culture default is still disbelief.

The Times, specifically, has been the subject of censure by queer rights organization for their open and manifest transphobia. This has been talked about for several years, at this point. It really says something striking to me, how many liberals seem totally unaware of the NYT's history of hate.

The thing about all the people who’ve spent the last days hemming and hawing over the Gaiman podcast being bad is that none of them thought it was a good idea to even listen to a little bit to learn basic things before suiting up to do battle about its unreliability. It wasn’t paywalled!

If you find yourself turning away from the knowledge that Gaiman will have to be excised from the publishing world and from sff in particular, overwhelmed by the emotional and personal conflicts this could cause, you need to reexamine your values and the kind of world you want to help make.

My personal feeling is that in cases of sexual assault "I'm going to wait to see what else develops" is a fine, but if you loudly announce that what you're seeing is inadequate and not enough and should not be believed by anyone, that's not waiting to see what else develops.

often the “discourse” on this site is just a handful of big accounts/journalists bullying some rando with 40 followers whose take was too hyperbolic while other big accounts reskeet to point, laugh, and moan about “discourse.”

Hey. You. You should wear the thing that you think is too weird or silly or young-looking for you. Life is short and society is made up. Decorate yourself however you want. Plus we're basically in the apocalypse and the ONE COOL THING about apocalypses (according to movies) is fashion.
