So a friend of mine told me how yesterday his coworker died on the way to work due to speeding and crossed a red light (she was late for the third time, so I’m guessing she was trying to avoid a write up). As soon as she crossed the light she was hit on the drivers side by a semi. The messed up part is that in less than an hour her table was cleared for a new worker. In less than 4 hours they had sent out the news that they are hiring. By the end of the day the hiring manager had contacted 4 people for an interview. Moral of the story is, these jobs don’t care about your ass. They will replace you in a snap. Don’t risk or waste your life trying to go above and beyond for a job that could care less about your wellbeing.
just a reminder that terfs are, to the last woman, fascist, patriarchal reactionaries and that there is not and has never been anything radical about their feminism, which is a feminism of the status quo, of white supremacy, and which is incapable even of liberating the cis women it claims to care about
Do you ever become desensitized to your own trauma?? Like you’ve been dealing with it for so long that when you accidentally let it slip out in conversation and the persons like “um oh my god?” You’re like wow I forgot my life has been one unspeakable horror after another #noted
The primary upside to an anxiety disorder is that you’ve been living in fear for so long that sometimes when something that ought to be legitimately terrifying happens it’s a drop in the fucking bucket and you just keep going without breaking stride.
This can also mess with the people around you, though. My family all think I’m some sort of emotionless monster because I never show any outward sadness or worry when things go wrong.
