For today's #AScareADay read, we read 'Since I died' by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps. It's a sad and beautiful tale written with a quiet, haunting desperation. You can read it here www.steve-calvert.co.uk/since-i-died...

I guess what I'm trying to say is, bridges get burnt, things don't just bounce back into place, people stay mad forever, commenters write mean things, peer groups fracture, and you can't weasel your way out of any of it with a cute slogan. that's just the way it is you know

I feel like "restorative justice" is just a completely fake idea with regard to the internet, and I really don't think people should feel beholden to form opinions about this stuff based on some rubric of Acceptable Political Takes

I too love Stephen King books, but am uncomfortable with the idea that abuse can turn a person into a monster. There is just a straight-up wind tunnel between my ears, if you listen close you hear the ocean.

this is a very thoughtful and nuanced piece. i think this paragraph is especially important to keep in mind. a lot of people are talking about geller as if he has spent the last ten years doing his best to atone for what he did, or asking if ten years of "good work" can outweigh one rape.
Regardless of whether or not you believe that rapists should not have to disclose their histories of sexual violence to their co-workers, I don't think Geller should have agreed to collaborate with me - especially for a video about James Franco - knowing that I've often written about living as a survivor of sexual violence (which I assume he knew because he knew of me and it was the subject of my most popular essay). I feel as though I was a small link in a larger chain of survivors used - deliberately or not - as props in a greater project of image rehabilitation. Every collaboration Geller did with an outspoken victim of sexual assault helped to legitimize his public image, and it seems none of us were given the choice of making an informed decision whether or not to support that project. While it's possible that Geller has deconstructed, his actions don't align with the argument that he's spent the last decade "accounting."

Our dear dear friend Haley at @friendsofbear.bsky.social has a very sick, sweet geriatric kitty who is in the hospital dealing with some stuff. She posted on her IG that all she’d like for her birthday today is some donations for his care: linktr.ee/friendsofbear
An orange tabby cat who is a bit old and scrungly sleeping inside a cubby bed.An old orange tabby cat who is a bit disheveled and scrungly, looking quite under the weather with an IV catheter in one leg and a kind hand scritching his cheek gently.friendsofbearcatrescue one of my favorite little FoB sanctuary buddies Mr. Peaches is currently in the hospital
no pressure but it's my birthday today
and I would love nothing more than if you could donate toward his hospital bill so we can give him the best chance
our donation links are in our bio!
Peaches came to us at the end of May after 13 hard years on the street. His time outside definitely showed, he was in horrendous shape and weighed 5
Ibs of mostly fleas. Since then, we have been managing his various conditions. He's dealt with anemia, congestion, gastric ulcers, kidney disease, horrible dental disease... the list goes on. We've been slowly chipping away at these issues and he was actually starting to feel pretty good! A couple weeks ago, he started backsliding and I've been trying to figure him out. This weekend, it became clear he was declining and what I was doing at home wasn't enough, so I had to admit him to the hospital.
Peaches is dealing with an infection, dehydration, another gastric ulcer, pretty awful congestion and a mild hit to his kidneys. Thankfully, after 24 hrs of fluids, he's showing improvement. Through all of this, he continues to have the loudest purr and best headbutts for everyone who helps him
I feel hopeful that we can get Peaches back on track and give him more time to feel loved and cherished, something he missed out on for his first 13 years of life. If you're able to pitch in $1 or $5 toward his care, we would all appreciate it more than you know.
Everyone who has met this little guy knows how special he is and how much he wants to stick around
thank you all as always for the ongoing support for these gross cats, they are my heart and soul and your donations and kind comments mean the world to me

Elon Musk, who is estimated to have ensured the mass deaths of 16 million people by 2030, most of whom will be children, is also history's most prolific creator and distributor of CSAM. He has basically infinite money to avoid facing any legal consequences whatsoever for his vast, vast crimes.

the framing of rape as something that just happens between two people is an attempt to deny the fact that rape is not a crime simply of one person harming another. it is a crime of intimidation. it is reliant on the rest of society backing the rapist up. rape makes accomplices of everyone.

Johnny Depp conned people of all walks of life and convinced them that he's not an abuser and that Amber Heard was the guilty one. And his genius comeback to Hollywood is by doing the same diet "Ooo aah eccentric weirdo!" Tim Burton bullshit people got tired of by 2015. Also this tagline doc...

I think it is evidence of how so much we have been made to think that gaining an audience is the goal of life in this attention-seeking economy that saying "a rapist shouldn't seek a public persona that is available for consumption" is taken as equivalent to saying they "can never rejoin society."

maybe before asking "should a person be punished for a mistake they made when they were young for the rest of their lives?" first consider that a lot of rape survivors deal with the trauma of being raped for the rest of their lives, *and* are socially ostracized for having been raped.
