#A rapist

[a-timely-problem]

so, my grandma has advanced dementia. She was also born during the Nazi regime. She might barely remember our faces but when I talked to her about trump her reaction was: "How could anybody vote for him? That's exactly what they said and did back then."

...so yeah...

I am so upset right now.

Is this about Alastor? Yes.

Do I still feel like crying? Perhaps.

Look. It's just.

The fact that Neil Gaiman, after raping and sexually assaulting six highly vulnerable women, isn't getting a hundredth of the hate Amber Heard got for supposedly abusing one man who was twice her size (and actually, no, she was just reacting to his abuse of her) tells you all you need to know about how our culture views women.

You can say "No, you see, I usually support women, it's just that *this* woman actually is evil and deserves to be hated", but I don't believe you. You can say, "I definitely support his victims! I'm just sad and processing this information. I just need to grieve for a little while. I'm definitely not giving him a pass!" And I don't believe you. You can say, "We need more information to see if he really did it" but then ignore all of the overwhelming evidence in favour of a demonized woman, so I don't believe you.

it frankly pisses me off that what is essentially “rapists and abusers should be depicted as monstrous caricatures because humanizing them is inappropriate” is considered a very moral and enlightened position to have on art by so many people. a rapist can feel pain, have moments of vulnerability, be amiable and charming, express remorse and compassion at times, be a victim themselves, and so on in real life. they are even capable of doing good things. they can have different sides to them and have individuals in their lives that they are kind to or have a decent relationship with. they will be a human being, and that fact encompasses a lot. conflating that with the claim that they are entitled to and deserve forgiveness or absolution is an issue. nurturing a mindset that believes they need to be one note and uncomplicated to be a correct and tasteful depiction of a rapist inadvertently falls in line with the logic of “how could they have possibly raped you? they are so normal and kind to me. they did all these good things here and there.” ok that doesn’t change that they are a rapist.

Hi wolfy! um I recall you stating your opinion on why you dislike Calypso before, but i can't find it... I wanna see it again though so... Can i ask about it again?

Well I have no overarching opinions on her, I just dislike her in relation to Odysseus because. Y'know. The rape. And the keeping him captive thing

[txttletale]

everyone loves to talk big game about how they hate carceralism and punitive justice until it comes to the topic of sexual violence in which case half of the prison abolitionists will revert immediately to being constitutional literalists for the code of hammurabi without missing a beat--good thing that the accusation of sexual violence hasn't been historically leveraged against people of colour or gay people or trans women or anything or this capitulation to kneejerk reaction would be uhhh pretty bad!

[foldingfittedsheets]

Noooo idea what vibes I’m sending that might make a Pro-Lifer follow me but as I just found one I’ll now be issuing a shotgun statement to scare off any others I’ve missed:

I’m pro choice, no one has the right to take away someone’s bodily autonomy.

just like the concept of “oathbreaking” is insufficient to cover the Kingsguard’s moral transgressions so too is “kinslaying” inadequate to describe what was wrong with Theon’s murder of the miller’s boys!!!!!!!! the lines that society draws to permit or condemn behavior do not reflect the true weight of the deeds themselves!!!!!!!! it’s easy to see in westerosi society but what if it’s true in ours as well!!!!!
