I used to associate a lot with Max Temkin—panels, podcasts, etc.—and at one point rented office at the CAH co-work space. Though I privately started cutting ties years ago, the stories of abuse and mistreatment from #CAHIsOver forced me to face my own longstanding complicity.
I owe people a more public reckoning. As I’ve sat with it, I found myself drawn to a passage written by Anita Sarkeesian on the subject: 
That is not an excuse, but an attempt at an explanation. To my colleagues, if you looked at me and thought it gave you permission: I’m sorry. To my readers, I apologize for any cover that my silence provided or any sense claims against abusers shouldn't be trusted or acted on.
