at my job we have to go through a training program that teaches us the library of congress classification system, and when i was first being trained my boss started to boot it up and she gave me a really anxious and guilty look and said “listen, i’m really sorry in advance, there’s nothing i can do about this, just…. just try to get through it” and i was like lol what’s she talking about and then the program loaded and i was greeted with a deliriously funny-looking photoshopped wizard with glowing eyes pointing at some intro message like “AH YES, JUST AS THE PROPHECY FORETOLD… APPRENTICE, YOU COME AT A TIME OF MOST DIRE NEED… YOU MUST LEARN OUR WAYS” and my boss just looked at me helplessly and was like “i’m so sorry. it’s like two hours long.”

thankfully it wasn’t an elaborate fever dream and i have found screenshots

I’m glad Nick Robinson made a public apology and stepped down, but I think the apology largely and maybe even deliberately misses the point in several ways:

He describes his actions as flirting, not harassment.

He does not acknowledge that he turned benign, non-sexual conversations into sexual conversations, without an indication that his conversation partners wanted that.

He does not acknowledge the age difference at play in many of the messages the public is aware of.

He does not acknowledge that initiating unasked-for sexual conversations with strangers, fans, and colleagues would be a problem no matter how famous or not-famous he was

He instead suggests that his behavior is a problem because he had some power/status, not because the behavior was intrusive no matter how much power he had.

He also deliberately frames his misbehavior as involving a blending of his public and professional lives, when it’s harassment that the public is concerned about rather than professionalism

He outright states that he has been engaging in this behavior for over a decade, but suggests that this behavior is only a problem now because he is/was a public figure, not because it was always annoying

He does not apologize to the women he harassed, he apologizes to the public that is disappointed in him

All of this sends a very clear message to me: Nick wants to slowly rebuild his public brand, nothing more.

historical figure: *does something fucked up*

their actual contemporaries: hey, man, that was pretty fucked up

some chucklehead hundreds of years later: if you think this was fucked up, you're applying a MODERN LENS and furthermore

Spotify kicked me out before I could finish making this playlist for my crush, but I think it still gets the message across just fine

buncha tweets I just made. please consider, @syfy and @CW_network

I actually think this would be a joy to watch, and I’m serious about the musical/fashion show aspect of it. And the non-continuity, just only make even numbered episodes.
