Are these losses?

Dead right.

It was not my intention, and I do apologise if I expressed myself in a way that retraumatised you.

I think no such thing, and if you got that impression from what I wrote then I must have expressed myself extremely badly.

Sexual assault sucks, no matter who does it, nor to whom. You deserve justice for what happened to you.

Here is the point I was trying to make:

• More men are convicted for sexual assault than women.

• Sharing pictures of a child’s penis without consent sucks. Maybe it’s sexual assault. Even if not, I believe it is a bad thing to do.

• Some women do it anyway, and they get away with it because they’re not seen as the sexual assault demographic. This sucks.

I’m sorry to hear that happened to you. I do not think that the statistics of abuser demographics should be relevant to their prosecution. That is a different thing to the thing I was talking about.

I think it’s generally agreed that repeated experiences are a good way of making time pass faster: your brain recognises a situation and says “I’m not needed here; I’ll fast-forward to something more challenging”. Binge TV you’ve already seen. When I was in your situation I listened to a lot of radio plays, audio books and podcast series.

Do keep running and exercising. Can you ride a bike? Building up some familiar routes might help pass the time in a healthy way.

I am sorry to hear that you’re feeling low. It’s the new epidemic. Hang in there and I do hope life gets more enjoyable in time.

Because the overwheling majority of sexual assault convictions are of men. It’s true.

Laughing at a child’s penis still sucks though.

How about nobody does it unless the subject is consenting?

Noo! OP tell me the green stuff is cilantro.

Where were you, when they ran out of stuff to build the ladder to heaven?

Lol

Meh.

She has a very good aim. Was that one of her miracles?

There was me assuming the chihuahua was there to play the role of the summoned demon.

Because the cure is illegal.

More than 50% of people are using Win10 and M$ are about to stop supporting it. That’s trouble brewing.

Different countries have different sources of information about candidates.

I don’t live in the US but absorb quite a lot of political media from there. Number 1 rule is not to back Republicans, especially if you can’t find much information on them. There are Republicans up and down the ballot who are trying to implement a Christian Nationalist agenda, many of them on the down-low, and if you have no evidence either way it’s better to assume they are.

Next step is to google/bing/ddg the ones you’re considering and see what you can dig up on them and their opinions. Do they have a history of unsavoury social media posts? Do they go to church? Who is their pastor? What do they stand for? Are they incumbent, or have they previously held office? What did they say / vote for before?

Thank you for taking an interest in local and down-ballot races. Your participation is vital to keep fascists and lunatics out of school boards and sherrif’s offices.
