cw abuse
there's also an element of denial that comes into play the longer you've been stuck on the bad end of an abusive dynamic - the sunk cost fallacy. you're so emotionally invested that untangling yourself is really difficult, and removing the blinders is even harder (especially if the person doesn't want you to talk about them at all. then it's like they don't exist and any negativity from you looks completely crazy)
cw abuse
especially if someone has been trained not to show any of their signs of abuse. then they look completely fucking normal and it comes out of left field. this is so hard to write about and get someone else to understand - if your empathy game isn't On Point, you're not going to be able to understand it at all without going through something similar
cw abuse
it's so fucking hard to convey why people get stuck longterm in an abusive relationship. if you can't properly articulate the decline in boundaries or self-respect, at the hands of the other, then it's... i mean, that's what makes it so hard - it requires stepping into the perspective of the one with the eroded boundaries, and not everyone has been in such a miserable place
cw abuse
thinking a lot about how to convey complex nuances in abusive relationship dynamics; it's so important to also be able to convey what's GOOD about the relationship in order to show why someone isn't able to see the bad in it -- the challenge of writing this is a hell of a worthy one to me though
i'm hoping that the amount of comic pages i put out in the next couple of months can start to make up for that awful lengthy hiatus
I feel so excited and so much relief about getting pages out again
@shaderphantom as we all know, being mean makes it so no one pays attention to whether or not you're right

"kiwi farms only collects the information, so having it there isn't a reason to disbelieve it"
hold up: they are very selective about which information they collect, and then they add their own narration on top, which you are treating as also factual
this is basically the fox news playbook, it shouldn't be that hard to spot this, come on

god i got so stressed out earlier trying to look for new health insurance. i do not understand anything about signing up for it and i've never been the one to do it myself. why is healthcare such a nightmare to sign up for in the us
god we're finally almost done unpacking. though we won't really be done until we set up our media center again, which involves setting up our tv again, which involves putting it on its tv stand, which was misplaced due to marl lol.
