@drjclau@elskwhite How many of us have been abused by the same person? If we had a way to share that information with a central legal expert at the helm, there is power in numbers for evidence in assault cases like a class action.
@drjclau@elskwhite Absolutely! There need to be consequences and that means identifying, naming and taking the offenders through the court of law, but that is rough when we know the survivors suffer more abuse at the hands of our legal system and the court of public opinion.
@drjclau@elskwhite I feel like a first step here is that the businesses these things occurred at need to take ownership of pressing charges so that the victims are further sheltered and protected. Maybe a legal fund or pro bono can be set up for victims to get legal protection against libel suits.

@ellalowgren I collect clothing and costuming patterns. Sometimes I make things from them, but very rarely. I like just having them, in case. Also lots of books on fiber art and embroidery and historic fashion.
Hi! I’m Athena, CEO & Lead Designer @UnicornGameDevs can’t be at #GDC for health the year but my partner @Nixter21 will be there to talk our app that will soft launch soon. We are building a studio telling diverse stories from diverse devs. I also consult for #Mobilegamedoctor
@DesignerMonica 20+ years and even through the worst what it came down to is that I loved what I do and I’m not letting toxic AH stop me from doing it. I was going to stick it out till I had the power to change it and make it easier on those coming behind. I’m doing that.
Week 10 complete: I’ll be honest this is getting harder and the side effects worse but today was the last hormone therapy and I only have 2 more weeks of chemo from here. Almost done with this part of the fight. https://t.co/I1HbqOZ2lD
I’m honestly not sure how to combat all the AI companies stealing our voices, but this should be a concern for all people, not just actors. Also…if a company asks you to teach an AI how to say anything & everything in YOUR voice, say NO.
