Was watching the Hazbin Hotel flashback about Vox’s earthly rise to power and all I could think was that I don’t think a media mogul would get away with that many murders

I think my therapist would be proud of how often I think to myself “this person is doing a mentalization failure”

WAIT I was wrong, Cherri Bomb in Hazbin Hotel is *not* Charlotte Nicdao despite sounding very much like her (Seethrough Princess in Adventure Time: Distant Lands is though).

I keep watching cartoons that feature Charlotte Nicdao as a voice actor and I guess this means I need to rewatch Mythic Quest

I'm apparently not online enough to know why people are harassing Ana but I feel like I can just say "don't do that" without even knowing the reason why

You can technically do a classier version with, like, soy sauce and toasted sesame oil and garlic and honey and lime juice that I'm sure is better than what I ate but I was TIRED and I simply needed something passing for nutrition

Had a rough evening but then I remembered I could boil some ramen noodles and eat them with peanut butter, sriracha, and scallions

Who the fuck cares what batshit things Megyn Kelly says. Why are you amplifying her. Amplify people who actually matter who are saying good things.

I dropped my stitch counter and it fucked up the count and now I can’t remember if I was on row 12 or 13 but it kinda doesn’t matter since I’m just gonna play the fit by ear after I get past 40 rows anyway

“Megyn Kelly should know better” Bud surviving sexual violence is not a moral education
1302
Lux 🌸 Alptraum @luxalptraum.com · 10h
Surviving sexual violence doesn’t make you a good person, nor does it immediately give you empathy for other survivors. Some survivors are shitty people! Megyn Kelly is one of them!

Someone shared a transcript of Megyn Kelly saying horrible shit about the Cornell Jane Doe which led another person to link to a 2016 story about Kelly accusing Roger Ailes of sexual misconduct and I don’t know what the takeaway is supposed to be

Every time I go to grab milk it’s like I’m in a completely different store

My local grocery store has spent the past few weeks renovating, completely changing out all the shelves and also reorganizing their entire system for where products are stocked, and while I’m sure it will lead to a better shopping experience in the future in the short term it is very disorienting.

Good luck! On the chance that this is a bladder crystals issue: my cat has that and it means I have to feed her special food but the special food works great and she pees fine now (obviously easier to do special food in a single cat house tho).

The vast majority of sexual assault survivors are seen as credible? Gonna need a citation on that one.

"they're crazy" guess what rape does to your mental health! "she's broke" guess what rape does to your finances! "he's bitter" guess what surviving rape does to your vision of the world!

It drives me up a wall how people think they are helping by saying the most awful and dehumanizing shit about survivors

Call me a pessimist but I don't think it's possible to eliminate sexual violence because I don't think it's possible to eliminate violence. I do, however, think it is possible to destigmatize surviving sexual violence and give survivors all the resources they need to not just heal but thrive.

It's a very particular violation that's really hard to explain, especially since different survivors experience it differently

I feel like people think if we say "rape/DV are things you can heal from" we're saying "so it's no big deal if someone rapes you," which is NUTS. You can heal from a broken leg! It still fucking sucks to break your leg and you shouldn't break other people's legs!

It's a really horrible thing to experience and *also* it is something you can come back from, which is not the case for something like, IDK, being murdered

I wish more of you understood how so much of your rhetoric around rape/DV actually harms survivors by increasing the stigma of *being* a survivor

Lux 🌸 Alptraum @luxalptraum.com · 11h
I don't wish sexual assault or IPV or any form of abuse on anyone, the same way I don't wish a broken leg or cancer or mental illness on anyone, but I also don't think that people who live with any of these realities are somehow permanently ruined the way people talk about SA/DV survivors.

I don't think preventing rape is a particularly easy task either. What *is* manageable, however, is creating a society that doesn't shame survivors and gives them easy access to support and healing resources.

I have some nectarines that want me to know they are not my ordinary nectarine which is the exact kind of nonspecific descriptor that I love because it is entirely possible that what makes these nectarines extraordinary is how bad they are
