So... a bunch of NFT grifters threw a party in Hong Kong this weekend and reportedly a bunch of attendees are now at risk of permanent eyesight damage because the promoters used unsafe lighting, and people are going to the ER...

okay if you're really cool about things, i can be honest with you. before you read further, decide if you're a girl's girl. if you're cool and actually cool or like not cool.

men don't talk in my book because i was fuckken tired of the way they're the center of every fucking story. i was tired of how every story takes a moment to let them talk. men can shut up for literally one fucking book.

unfortunately not everyone is cool. professionally what i usually say is i didn't want to add violence to the world. the only men in my book are abusers, so they don't get to talk. they don't get to take up space. they ruined my life, they don't get to have their words echo anymore.

because like, yeah! you find practically any story about a person surviving trauma and... there's a man at the center. men are often rescuing us from these things. a "good man" is always standing around, being a good man, proving to the victim that good men are the real men. that her experience was unique rather than universal.

the redacted text has not been taken well by all of my early readers. there is this weird, crouching growl that keeps occurring with men-of-a-certain-age. why don't we hear his side of the story?

when i sat down to write everything that happened to me, i couldn't look at the frank brutality of my abuser's words on a page and think to myself: i actually let him speak like that. i had to redact his words from the manuscript. i then left it redacted. no victim is going to read this book and hear the person who hurt them. it is a book for the victims to speak. abusers shut up challenge, forever. for eternity.

my father once told me, chuckling, i should just have a page of redaction where i let the man just finally talk. it is funny to joke about how we should make a whole page in my book about a man that hurt me. this was not the only time someone commented - it feels like you're hiding things. how do i know you're actually a victim if he doesn't get to speak?

there are books where women aren't even present. i even genuinely like some of those books. like, who doesn't like the hobbit?

i keep running into people defending this imaginary man. the default narrative is so true to some people that they will defend any man, just by virtue of the assumption - "if he's acting like that, you had to push him." certain people need definitive proof that you didn't accidentally make your partner into an abuser. they need to decide if you deserved it, because they want to be able to judge you.

which makes sense, i guess, from a hind brain perspective. if you can figure out "why" someone was cruel, you can protect yourself against it. if you defend the bully, the bully might side with you. i don't really know their explanation for feeling this about a character in a book. trust me, i wrote the guy. he is not going to protect you.

i guess i just - there was a time in my life where i desperately wanted anyone to defend me. where i could have really used someone saying holy shit are you okay instead of what did you say to make him act like that to you.

instead, over dinner, a friend-of-a-friend i just met is pouring herself wine. i heard you wrote a book, she says. she gives me the kind of chilly smile i associate with knives. i heard it's unfair to men.

I know this doesn't have anything to do with the characters and everything to do with the writing, but is anyone else perturbed by the fact that all of them just... stood there, while Izzy was dying?? Like, the people who cut off his leg and saved his life, then made him a new one when they saw how much he was struggling??

Why were they all like, "Aww man, Izzy's shot, nothing we can do about that"???

There's something just so beautiful about a character falling in love with their best friend who is sadly not into them and already had their partner.

Mfs be asking me what I'm listening to in class and I gotta pull something out my ass because I'm not gonna tell my professor that I'm listening to a blonde rat getting choked out by an emo bitch with a chain

[felizusnavidad]

Does anyone else see Grian and Ariana Griande as two different people? Like, they're twins. But of course, Grian still dresses up as her to mess with Mumbo.

Mumbo will walk into a room and not be able to tell which one of them it is, but he can make a pretty good guess most of the time. Except when he doesn't and he ends up saying something incredibly suggestive to Grian thinking it was Ariana.

And Ariana knows this is happening, she loves to mess with Scar too. She pretends she's Grian dressed as her so she can annoy him.

This may be due to the fact that I keep seeing Mumbo x Griande stuff but I don't like Grumbo

But it's fun to mess around with.

You see that post where Jorge asks Dani to fight him, too right? I didn't just had too many energy drinks

Cause... Why does he want to fight him, says he doubts Dani accepts and then defenses him in the comments by saying he's more in shape while he isn't (while indirect calling himself fat if my Spanish and those emojis 🥐🍟🧁 are anything to go by)

I mean, I always assumed Lorenzo fights other riders in the parking lot (Vale, Casey, Simoncelli) but what kind of flirting is that? Does he really means a box fight or... A different one?

Please let Jorge be in Jerez - with a black eye - cause that would be so funny now.

[radioactive-cloud]
