Hihi 👋🏻

I’m trying to train myself to be better about this. 😬

Well yours is away more interesting than mine. 😅

People asked Meryl Streep how she could REALLY not have known about Weinstein, and she was basically like “because I’m fucking Meryl Streep, and I didn’t know because he NEEDED me not to know.” she was vital as part of the cover story

Something that is very true of charismatic abusers is that they don't just charm the people they are abusing. They work hard to make sure that the community around them considers them to be of impeccable character it makes it harder for things to come out and harder for those things to be belidved

Yeah. The nature of very talented abusers is that they curate a huge carapace around them of influential and respectable people to whom they are always charming, affable, thoughtful and sincere. Grooming is a thing that happens to everyone in their orbit, not just the victims.

“Calliope” almost seems confessional/autobiographical, in hindsight. 😕

Hah Australians see the name James Cook and think about the coloniser who got ripped to shreds on Valentine’s Day.

Man...

Hope his victims get justice. Hope his fans find peace. Hope he never gets another untroubled night. Hope he hesitates to walk the streets. Hope his kids aren't fucked up for life. Hope Palmer has a serious long night of the soul over her complicity.

I've consumed art by plenty of horrible people, but they tend to be dead for the most part, or at least had some self-awareness. No sheep's clothing in evidence. But now Gaiman's entire career just looks like a long con to me. Deep cover.
