Trauma, politics
I first learned what being triggered was when I saw Trump's body language in the second debate, and it screwed me up really badly. Scary to realize that that's even more exactly him. D:
Trauma, politics
Just ran into this quote from Politico, and it's my dad to a T.
"he’ll get mad at a specific staffer or broader situation, unload from the Oval Office and then three hours later act as if nothing ever occurred even if others still feel rattled by it"
He'd regularly explode, then go to the office for hours, even days (sleeping in his chair) and would come home like nothing had happened.
Violence (Poem)
Made myself write a little something re: Friday today. Not sure I captured it, really, but I tried. >.< https://zetasyanthis.deviantart.com/art/Unsafe-699098114
And oh man, this one on identity is amazing. https://themanbeneaththemask.deviantart.com/art/Identity-687954268
And this might be the saddest one. ;_; https://liveinfinitely.deviantart.com/art/Untitled-527873066
I just found a poem that touches depression more deeply than any I've ever encountered. https://pianoweb.deviantart.com/art/My-Falsehood-694440655
The peace is holding. <3
I would not leave Suki behind either. http://www.popsci.com/pets-emergency-evacuations
Just an FYI, I'm putting my poems up on Deviantart too, since I'm starting to try and reach a wider audience. :)
And here's a new poem that I wrote back in March, but hadn't posted until today. (Gave myself some time to think it over before releasing it, due to the content.)
This is a good one to remember today.
Defeat is not surrender

Today is a good day to post both these links. First one is a tough, but very good read.

It might take a few years for me to get that going, but I'm starting to work from here on out towards that goal.
My goal as a writer: To wound you so deeply that you start to heal things you didn't even know were broken.
