when you think about it it's just kind of crazy how you can be neglected and abused your whole childhood instead of experiencing a brief moment of being taken care of while learning how to be a person, and then once you're an adult it's like ok now i'm still essentially raising myself in a shitty situation but this time my adult peers are like mad at me because i'm not as emotionally healthy as them, and on top of that i still have to save my own life

Gisele Pelicot and her daughter are estranged because despite everything her husband has done, gisele refuses to believe that her daughter was also abused and scolded her for "making a scene", and talked down to her, defending her ex husband.

I don't really have the heart to feel blame towards Gisele, it's the inhumanity of men that has led to this maladaptive coping mechanism due to immense mental damage. Poor Caroline though, she deserves so much better. To be betrayed by both parents and to be alone must be terrible.

This is Gilberto Filipe, who dominated the World Association for Working Equitation Qualifier in Segovia, Spain, in March 2024. I think this is his Lusitano stallion Iranio.

it is the nature of the universe that people will organically invent the iowa writers workshop mfa sometimes its like crab evolution

i think substack kind of reveals the problem with a lot of young writers and it's that they have nothing to talk about beyond writing and weepy little bits of introspection about "the unbearable fragility of young adulthood" or their failed relationships or living in new york that all say the same things. idk maybe training just to Write doesn't give you much to say
