Anyone who still uses the "innocent until proven guilty" line for abusers is either recklessly ignorant in not knowing that the extreme majority of rapes do not lead to consequences or simply do not care and either way, are actively complicit in the patriarchal status quo.
@KAHunter91@Pops__o In the same set of notes, she also says "I haven't done anything wrong", also it says "POLICE, SLANDER" in this very note so you can't take that as a confession.
@TroopsBane She's not Israeli. I don't understand how it's possible for you to make such good YouTube videos while also being so awful and anti-factual on Twitter. Just throwing around accusations for no reason...
4 days out from my life-changing surgery, @Aetna has denied the appeal for my brain surgery.
to be clear, when i signed up to aetna months ago, the coordinator had confirmed they would cover this surgery. then, a week ago, they said the surgery was too experimental/elective and denied coverage. we appealed. that appeal was just denied today.
now, my neurosurgeon is trying to do a peer-to-peer consult with someone at aetna to explain why i need it so we donโt lose the surgery date on monday morning. aetna is not being responsive.
this is sadistic and a violation of basic trust. please spread this so they canโt ignore it. they may not care if i live or die but people should know just what kind of company theyโre dealing with. and please pray they are able to have a peer-to-peer consult with my neurosurgeon and have a change of heart.
@RufusSG keep it to themselves it's not causing harm in the way we want to prevent from public figures. I hope she is trans-affirming, but in the best way, I don't think it matters much because she has fundamental principles that result in positive behaviour!
@RufusSG The thing that gets me is, we don't even necessarily know that VCM is pro-trans, but she definitely has a level of respect and empathy to be human about trans issues in any case. This is the same reason I don't like "rumours that X is a TERF/Tory/Republican because if they
@silllexa @SageTeamjewels I know you don't, but that's my point - you're accusing this person of saying your cast is shit based on your placement in a relative ranking of other casts. This doesn't necessarily mean they're saying anything bad about you.
@cyberdogalex Why do we have to respond to ludicrous overreaction with ludicrous overreaction... There's no way in your heart you genuinely believe that Dune is lifeless, even if you don't like it.
@snowmistspiders It is a pretty trope-y movie, but it uses the tropes in undeniably unique and interesting ways, so I am suspicious of anyone desperate to hate on this movie.
@VELV3TG0LDMINE Who cares about quantity either way, but if you have a deep interest in cinema you should definitely be reaching outside of what immediately interests you or appeals to you.
@BareLeft Hate Reform with every fibre of my being, but we need to give up the (feigned?) confusion on this one. They obviously just mean people who work hard and have to get up early. Acting like you don't understand that makes you seems out of touch.
@pop_underrated I totally understand from GA's POV, but from BBC's side, suggesting you are telling "the story of the girlband era" and then heavily editorialising around who chooses to talk to you feels like poor journalism to me. GA were pivotal to that story even if they won't talk about it.
