i mean, maybe this is my inner “survivor of child abuse” talking, but I am not going to tell abusive parents that they’re bad at bringing up their children without a bullet proof plan with regards to how I could protect my student from the emotional and physical backlash of that meeting.
Important thing to remember about intervening in abuse in general. Any actions taken by others to hold the abuser accountable WILL be taken out on the victim and not the person doing the confronting. Do not confront an abuser about their actions unless you know for absolute certain that you can protect their victim from the fallout.
I feel like this is SO OBVIOUS for abuse survivors (and abusers) but non-survivors somehow don’t seem to think about this???
So this is just a little head canon I have for RWBY; Nora Valkyrie learned how to play electric guitar just so she can smash it after a sick solo.
So where all them bundy land conservatives at? Where all them small government-big gun people?
We’re witnessing the assault on a sovereign nation by our government, but apparently it doesn’t count to the same folks who love to say “don’t tread on me”
National Coming Out Day is coming up (October 11) and I just want to remind everyone:
1) Please do not out anyone (even if you “think you are doing them a favor.” Trust me when I say you aren’t) and make sure you don’t accidentally do so.
2) It is okay to be in the closet. Please do not feel pressure to/obligated to come out because there so happens to be a Coming Out Day. (Do it for you if it’s what you want).
3) If you are a non-lgbt, please don’t come out as a joke. seriously, don’t.
