Because abusers are so unwilling to end their control, the most deadly part of an abusive relationship is when victims attempt to leave it. This is another reason you don’t try to force victims to “just leave.” Only they can know when that is a truly viable option.

It is the ABUSER who is making the choice to maintain a relationship structured by their coercive control. And no excuses they may have for their commitment to intimate authoritarianism diminishes that choice. The abuser is the one that won’t let the relationship end, because they benefit from it.

It is for the same reason that you DO apply as much pressure as you can (within the boundaries set by the victim) on the abuser. To effect the power imbalance. The person who exerts the control is the problem to be addressed, not the victim or their choices.

The essence of an abusive relationship is entrapment. The abuser’s coercive control (in tandem with structural oppression) makes it so their victim *cannot* leave. This is why you DON’T shame victims for “staying,” you give them access to as many resources as you can. To effect the power imbalance.

The people who need to be pressured to leave relationships are abusers, not the victims who they entrap. The main message shouldn’t be “leave relationships that are controlling” (which focuses on a victim’s behavior) but “leave relationships you can’t maintain without being controlling.”

SO much love for the covid cautious spaces that maintain their shared principles under enormous pressure to capitulate. When organizers commit to accessibility they send the message that the participation of disabled agitators is understood as critical.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

There's absolutely no reason we all need to know about drama at a queer bar in Massachusetts that immunocompromised people go to. None at all. It's not national news and it should mean nothing to you if you've never been to that bar.

People are genuinely failing to identify which pieces of "journalism" are meant to make you & others hate an entire marginalized group, and it's actually terrifying. But sure, it's totally fine and not a massive red flag that conservatives are laughing along with you.

Just saw some conservative loser sincerely call another person a NIMBY for saying we don't need a data center in my town 🙃

New Hampshire needs change, this country needs change, and I really hope Karishma is our next Senator.

I have really appreciated her commitment to learning from disabled Granite Staters and giving them a platform to talk about the issues impacting them. I have never seen another candidate take as much of an interest in learning how they could serve disabled people, even though it should be the norm.

Chris Pappas and Maggie Goodlander also won't stop defending their vote for the Laken Riley Act, and are awful in many many other ways.

Heat. Kills. AC is not some kind of fancy luxury for rich people, it is a lifesaving health intervention. Heat is an especially big problem in low-quality housing (like...what poor people can afford) and for people who work outside and need to cool down at night to avoid things like kidney injury.

One goal for the week is to talk to more places like pet stores/pet supply stores, the pet Cafe, vets (ofc), etc so they're aware and to see if we can put up fliers. I'm so so worried about my little baby but trying to remain as hopeful as possible. Grateful for all the help we've received so far

We've looked in the yard, neighborhood ofc, talked to neighbors, put up fliers, talked to the Humane Society several times, and I have been posting in neighborhood/city groups too, but I figured I'd try Bluesky too.

Chris Pappas voted for the Laken Riley Act, he has voted to find Israel many times, & he has voted with conservatives on anti-trans bills. NH needs a senator who won't do those things. Karishma needs our support. Follow her and share her posts even if you don't live in NH. Help us beat Pappas.
