Patriarchy as scaffolding for ADHD? More common than you might think! Tbh, if you read books aimed at couples where one partner has ADHD, this seems more and more obvious.

🤡LOL! No. You people are not serious. You have a Vice President Kamala Harris. It's Biden or Harris. Y'all trying to hit Kamala with some "OK fine! Yes, you won already, but hear me out... best out of three! 😜" type nonsense. You ain't slick. At all.

the first time I was sexually assaulted I didn't tell anyone for 6 months. last time I was raped it took weeks before I told my best friend because I was so ashamed and blamed myself. the idea that women talking about this anywhere, especially where their powerful abuser will see it, is a set up,jfc

I want to share this because I think it gets at something really important. But I think it needs a lot of nuance and context. For example, someone suggested that it would be better to substitute "neurodivergence" instead of "mental illness".

It's a shame that you can't look at a post's quotes like on Twitter; but in the absence of private accounts that might also allow people to share more personal anecdotes while only notifying the original poster and their followers.

It's a valuable way to add your perspective on a post while sharing it to your followers, and the way the original post is largely inaccessible if either party blocks the other helps mitigate dunks/harassment.

Bluesky's design seems really well done when it comes to mitigating abuse via quotes too - e.g. if either party has the other blocked you just can't access the oiriginal post from the quote.

Makes my skin crawl that these people have to spend the twilight of their lives being denied justice by people who weren’t even alive when they were brutalized and that what were supposed to be the best years of their lives was stained by an overt rejection of justice.

YES. You don’t have to give people your phone number anymore, you can change your (secondary ephemeral) name/link/QR as often as you like, and if subpoenaed, signal can only turn over chats under one individual name bc they don’t know who you are either — The Intercept published a good explainer.

whatever labelers end up doing turning up in the future, this is the most important thing to be mindful of imo. the entire idea of composable moderation is that you get to mix and match specialized labelers, not that labelers need to be a community-led amateur T&S team. that is bluesky's job.

anyway, reminder that not every abuser suffers from an apparently pathological inability to stop posting the most self-incriminating anime villain monologues ever put to words on main, and it is still crucial to learn to identify and build resilience against abuse apologia.

i know that i can sometimes slip into "dramatic" talking, but i'm still begging you to listen: these are critical moments. the surge of rape apologia, like "the sex was too loud for it to be non-consensual" (real defense of anonsee) that emerge in the wake of an abuser getting outed is SO damaging.
