Something about the persistence of the rape revenge plot in fantasies of male heroism and courage that actually serves to enable and perpetuate the generalized impunity for rape and dismissal of survivors suffering in life.

One time when I was at court with a victim-survivor, the public prosecutor, a man in his 40s, came to the remote witness room after and cried, apologising to them after for what they had to endure in cross-examination www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...
Despite having a law degree, this victim-survivor still found the court system 'traumatising'
A new report by victim-led advocacy organisation With You We Can makes the case for all victim-survivors of sexual violence to have access to independent legal representation.

NEW: The leaders of an Old Apostolic Lutheran Church community in Minnesota enabled a child abuser by pressuring his victims to forgive and forget his sins — so that they could never speak of them again.

I don’t expect any psychedelics conferences to cut ties with Deepak Chopra over Epstein — they already chose to ignore his victims and reams of other evidence, decades old, for why should have nothing to do with teaching people about psychedelic therapy or anything at all

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.

Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.

"The real conspiracy theory around Trump and Epstein is that multiple apparently unconnected women lied, and continue to lie, about Trump’s behavior. This with nothing to gain, and much to lose, by speaking out about his misdeeds."
I love seeing a shred of accountability for Trump as much as anyone, but it's pretty striking that most people are prepared to believe a man who's a convicted serial rapist-sex trafficker and NOT ALL THESE WOMEN katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

Question answered: *no* proceeds from The Tell went to @mapsorg.bsky.social -- appreciate the follow-up (= I was suspicious and wrong).

Where are the proceeds being donated? I don't know. I find it odd anyone needs to ask -- why wouldn't they just be transparent about it?

@mja.com.au I sent you an email yesterday about an article by "medical practitioner" Cathy Keezelman - she is not a medical practitioner and I've reported her to AHPRA, along with the "facts" on repressed memories the Blue Knot Foundation promotes. I hope you'll consider removing her article.

I've emailed Rick and @mapsorg.bsky.social before and have always really appreciated that they are open and responsive. Makes it extra weird that the first time I'm getting no response from anyone is when I'm asking a very simple question about whether any proceeds from The Tell were donated to MAPS
