If we prosecute one person in the files, we have to prosecute them all. My brother in Christ...you could burn them all alive and I would shrug. I am a survivor and the death of my abuser is still one of the best things possible

It grinds my gears that Neil Gaiman can assault as many people as he wants and still have a new book coming out, while marginalized authors say one kinda tone deaf thing at a con once and lose their entire careers over it

1/ Epstein had as many clients & friends as he did bc sexual violence & all forms of abuse against women & children are by & large considered acceptable. B/c, despite most people *claiming* to oppose rape & child abuse, far too many people either actively participate or they avert their eyes. We

CC Astronomy first went live just over *11 years ago*. Dang. It has over 85 million views total now, and while it's getting out of date in some ways, I just linked to it in a newsletter article about how stars die because some things don't change rapidly.

Still. Dang.
My kid, who is going into high school and wants to pursue astrophysics, is getting a head start with @philplait.bsky.social's Crash Course series. It's wild that they're watching YouTube videos of the same guy I was reading 20 years ago.

They can be good artists or academics or activists. They can be a good parent or uncle or friend. They can be good teachers or ministers or doctors.

And still be abusers.

Sit with that cognitive dissonance.
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
"actually his stuff was very Derivative and not Original" like, you don't have to do this. it is good for us all to sit with the cognitive dissonance that a very bad person can make very good art. it is good for us to work through the moral ramifications of that.

see also: Neil deGrasse Tyson. no matter how many times I post or make videos about the women who came forward about his behavior, tons of people are always hearing about it for the first time. it’s not even an “open secret” in scicomm because it’s not a secret!

A new poll finds that 1 in 4 Minnesota voters took part in the Jan 23 shutdown against ICE, or have a loved one who did. Of those, 38% DID NOT WORK, either because they made the choice to stay out, or their workplaces closed. By me, @thomasbirm.bsky.social, @bloomekatz.bsky.social
