This is like destroying the Epstein files, replace "Epstein" with "the catholic church".
Imagine the court saying it will destroy these files to protect victims... 😑
Courts, police, the church never protect victims.
Power is protecting power, like the Epstein files.

finish her!!
also can't hear any mortal kombat line without hearing "toasty!"
"The figurines are used as... good luck charms by football fans who then blame Jews if their team loses."
what the hell?
lol his first name was pafnuty
no need to apologize sid! Thank you!
god, right?? even now I'm consumed by it. Money is so tight -- almost entirely because of well-above-market rent I'm paying to my mom for our current home. but even then I'm thinking about ways to help them pay their bills. I wish I were joking.
i don't know exactly what I wanted to hear her say to me some 30 years on. I've survived worse assaults since then. I'm ok -- I'm a big girl and I can take care of myself.
but I guess I wanted more? some understanding that I felt unprotected. that I felt too scared to tell them?
yeah I (trigger warning for sexual assault) told my mom that the first time I remember being sexually harassed I was about 4, by a girl nextdoor and it happened repeatedly, and then again with some boys in the neighborhood more sporadically. her response was just that she didn't know.
yeah, i feel this. I don't remember much of my childhood. but it always felt like i was steeped in notions of filial duty. even now I make it clear to my kid that my love for her is unconditional but that hers for me need not be.
i tried. it kinda got thrown back in my face. but I waited too long. my dad's brain is worse than mine at this point. and my mom just kind of threw it back in my face?
"was there anything I did right?" doesn't feel like an apology or an acknowledgement.
such a good fit. I love those boots!!
thank you everyone for all your help. i wish i had the emotional wherewithal to respond to all your supportive comments. i'm just feeling so emotionally spent and trying to hold it together, but it means so much to me.
love you all 💚
i think i struggle with this partly because my parents *aren't* transphobes. in fact they are incredibly supportive of that. but i feel so let down by them in many other ways.
seeing others post about their transphobic parents makes me feel as if I don't have the right to be estranged to them.
:'( sorryyyy
is being quasi-estranged from one's parents a failing on the part of the child? should I do more to mend things? am I being dramatic about my own (mostly unremembered) childhood? Should i apologize? I say that but I don't even know what for. I guess I just want to feel loved?
I will also say that it’s a bit wild to me that no press freedom organization or professional journalistic association has tried to contact me or even put out a statement here.
I mean Jesus Christ. A little solidarity from institutions would be nice here!
i'm a fan! (I'm behind a few episodes. Once it warms up enough to do more gardening i'll get caught up real quick though!)
hang in there mollz! (love the new hair color btw)
you get it!
all three are great options but i'd say bagel bites would be my first choice
yay! hi again nine! hope you enjoy having your own profile!
i don't want to do any production but I'd happily spend hours talking. anyone want to record me talking about plants and stationery?
CAN WE STOP FUCKING TALKING ABOUT THIS NOW (rhetorical because some of you just hate Jews)
YESSSSSS
OMG KAT AND I FUCKING LOVE SEQUENCE HOW DID WE NOT PLAY THIS WHEN YOU AND VI WERE HERE????

Full offense but I do not trust our military to be arbiters of what is and isn’t nazism or racism
Oh no shit. Should I give it a read?
Yeah I’m 100% choosing the bear
