4 days ago The Pentagon fired the editor in chief of Stars and Stripes.
Yesterday they broke the story of Elsie Dominguez, a civilian engineer who was raped repeatedly by the Captain of a Navy ship she was on.
A Judge ruled she needs to file a worker’s comp claim. For rape.
They keep trying to silence the press & quash the truth.
Elsie’s story must be told:

CW: shitpost + serious reminder
"Fuck Columbus" is necrophilia.
No, but seriously, please stop using language of sexualized violence to voice condemnation against people. We should be better than that.

CW: capitalism's evils, housing insecurity, mental health/trauma, abuse culture (long)
I am realising that I have only put up with the dangerous conditions of the house and the landlords bs for as long as I have because of how being homeless in 2022 traumatised me and reinforced the belief that I have to put up with abuse and take any and all shit and accept literal death traps as "housing" because I'm worthless and deserve nothing.
I can't work under/for capitalism and the system shuts me out at every opportunity from every resource that most people take for granted.
Of course I really am a worthwhile human being (cheat code: everyone is!), I'm fucking awesome and I am a force for good and for liberation. I just have a hard time remembering that and cannot make it be heard by cogs of the machine.
And... the base idea that one has to "earn" a living and "earn" the right to be allowed to live in a place is so central to capitalism.
It's also central to child abuse. It's what my parents lorded over me and were fully supported to lord over me and my siblings by every facet of capitalism, society and the state.
My mother once said it was "no wonder" that my father is "in a bad mood" (what a euphemism!) when he comes home from a hard day's work and long commute just to find his children hadn't even done their homework and chores yet!
I hadn't earned my right to not get abused. But he apparently had earned his "right" to abuse me. And so did my mother by bearing me.
They took it too far even by this society's (stated) standards, but there was never anything I could do about it.
Is it any surprise then that it took me decades to realise that I deserve to not get raped by my roommates? Despite being "wrong" in so many ways, neurodivergent and queer, and both in the wrong way apparently?
Running away from my then roommate (rapist) was what landed me in the homeless shelter. EVERY person classed as a woman there had a story of domestic abuse to tell that caused their homelessness! Every single one. The people classed as men didn't tend to name it as such, but reading between the lines, it was fairly obvious that most of them also had similar stories. Different flavours of the same shit sandwich — at least for marginalised men.

Λοιπόν, δεν θα το κάνω συνήθεια να βάζω τα ίδια εδώ που βάζω στο τουιτερ, αλά θέλω ναι καταλάβετε πόσο βαθιά ριζωμένος είναι ο μισογυνισμός στην κοινωνία μας. Ετούτο εδώ υποτίθεται πως είναι αντί μισογυνικό τουι. Βλέπει κανένας το πρόβλημα, ή μόνο εγώ ή γριά στρίγγλα;
