covid, abuse 

I'm most distressed by the fact that due to the quarantine measures, it has become both very easy for domestic abuse to escalate, and exceedingly hard to get someone out of an abusive home situation from afar.

The hidden disease is abuse and I am scared of the damage that is happening around the world because of this crisis.

covid, abuse 

@shaderphantom gosh yeah

i managed to extract someone from a really bad situation near the beginning of the year, and now i feel like we've dodged so many bullets that collectively we're basically neo at this point

i really hope that others who are trapped will be alright, since, now more than ever, they will likely be relying on others for their needs
