Trigger Warning : Suicide

So I an deactivating my Twitter in about 24 hours. I just came across this topic, that out of all, really just made me mentally tired.

When people don’t want to take responsibility for their hate, and help to create a suicidal person even more so. You have to be a sociopath. If you want to get involved with complete strangers, be an adult and take some responsibility. Brianna Gheys murderers were charged with a hate crime and now it’s coming out that Eden Knight was sent back to Saudi Arabi, and forcibly made to detransition.

Not a single TERF has shown any compassion for either girl.

I saw a post though, where a TERF was saying that people placing the blame on them, was manipulative and emotional abuse. And they don’t have to put up with it. I told them they do and then blocked them. I couldn’t even be bothered dealing with them. What also made me angry was a twit saying because she choose not to commit suicide, that means it’s a choice.

There are 8 billion people on this planet.

If you have a trigger about suicide, now is a good time to turn away.

Suicide rates increased 30% between 2000–2018, and declined in 2019 and 2020. Suicide is a leading cause of death in the United States,3 with 45,979 deaths in 2020. This is about one death every 11 minutes.3 The number of people who think about or attempt suicide is even higher. In 2020, an estimated 12.2 million American adults seriously thought about suicide, 3.2 million planned a suicide attempt, and 1.2 million attempted suicide.4

Facts About Suicide – The CDC

  • 8.6 Australians die every day by suicide. That’s more than double the road toll (ABS, 2022).
  • 75% of those who take their own life are male (ABS, 2022).
  • An unknown number of Australians attempt suicide every year, with some estimates suggesting this figure may be over 65,000 (Slade et al, 2009).

Data and statistics – Lifeline, Australia

  • 115 people die by suicide in the UK every week – with 75% of those deaths being male (ONS)
  • 1 in 5 people have suicidal thoughts (NHS Digital)
  • 1 in 14 people self-harm (NHS Digital)
  • 1 in 15 people attempt suicide (NHS Digital)

When I was younger…so much younger than today. I did have a dark thought at one moment in time. I was very angry and very alone in the world. Luckily for me, I had a dog. S I can sit here and say that I made a choice to not do anything. But was I being suicidal? Probably not. Because I know choosing suicide is not a choice. I was an overly emotional teenager. However, its why we do have to be careful with them. Listen to them, properly.

Suicide is not a choice.

I know it’s a horrible thing to talk/write about. But we have to…not “normalise” it, but, more be open to having difficult conversations with loved ones. If you don’t know how, be honest and go get help together.

Again, there are 8 billion people on this planet. You “choosing” to not commit suicide, isn’t the same for the other 8 billion people on this planet.

Good Questions!

I saw this and I thought it is such a good question to remind ourselves. It’s like if you don’t want to share, it is a good reminder.

Christmas can be a really hard time for some, so remember to remember (haha) what you might need to get through this time. And remember, it’s okay not too be okay.

Face Meet Palm

I am planning on writing a post tomorrow, about my trip to Sydney. I am just sort of recovering from my trip, I was supposed to go into work today, but stuff happened.

I came back on Twitter, and apparently Rowling is setting up a female only “crisis” center or something? I am actually a little confused as to what it is. What I do know though, they plan on excluding trans women from it. However, that’s fine, there are lots of services to accommodate trans people.

The problem with HER female only center, is how do you police that? They’ve put, if you are trans they will direct them to a different service. Watching TERFs after transphobic post, play it off like the women accessing the services “will be fine” Should seriously, be quiet about it.

How do you know who is and who were not born female? What about intersex people? The people (women and men) who access these services, often only get ONE chance to escape from their rapist or domestic violence situation. They don’t always take a birth certificate with them.

This is what one TERF said

Can any of you see a problem with this? What “Lanah” is suggesting that it’s quiet simple. (Hint its not)
Most TERFS are comparing needing access to a center, as the same as mis-gendering. We’re talking about a crisis center here. Not when one of them calls me, a cis woman, a man. I understand bigots don’t understand the importance of protecting people in those situations.

Thursday Theories – Tells You a Lot

This week or to has been annoying for a lot of reasons. Despite the gums, human beings still being stupid, is getting worse.

*Trigger Warning* Domestic Violence

What inspired me to write this post was seeing a Depp supporter say “The fact that Rihanna choose Depp over Heard, tells you all need to know”.

Yeah, like she makes poor choices.

Rihanna defends Chris Brown collaboration – Chris Brown, by the way, continued to harass, stalk and abuse women.

I believe I can fly! Rihanna steps out in R. Kelly T-shirt with leather trousers and coat as she prepares to jet to Canada for her tour

Depp “part” in her show. Was him (a white man) walking a group of black men, dancing, to a tree. I’ll admit when I first saw it, I thought maybe I was reading too much in to that. Nope, I wasn’t the only one who had a problem with that *symbolism*

Women, can make bad choices, some of them especially, when you have people rubbing your ego 24/7, continually make them.

An extreme question

I will put a *trigger warning*. Although this question is based on a soapie storyline…ish. I know some of my readers have experienced great loss and grieved a lot in there lifes. Although this question is a bit “fun” it can bring up feelings and issues.

Here’s the question…

If you loved someone who was dying, but you realised they were in love with someone else. Would you be able to let them go, knowing they would stay with you, but only out of loyalty…what’s the word I’m looking for…Obligation?

See, it’s kind of soapie, right, lol

Controversial Opinion!

Do you have an controversial opnion? Well here is one of mine and I would love to hear your thoughts about it!

Trigger topic/warning: Rape

In the UK since (I think 2003ish?) they created a Law, which meant that women can’t be convicted of rape. Which lacks all common sense, because women rape and in, fact, since 2003, women in the UK, have been charged with it.

Anyway, my topic has nothing to do with that specific Law, rather the notion that that Law, and transphobic people believe, that women can’t rape. Now, my topic is really going to ask, do you consider what I’m about to write, is it rape or not.

I used to have a friend who is obsessed with babies. So much so, she now has (I believe) 6 kids and half of them don’t know who their father.

This is where my controversial opinion comes in.

Her first child knows who his father is. I believe though, she realised she had made a “mistake” by doing this. She even gave her first born the same name as the father’s surname, so the child would have her last name instead. The father’s surname is a first name scenario, so you know like: John or Peter or William.

The next three kids don’t know who their fathers are. Too me, what she did is borderline rape. Because she went into those situations without telling those guys that she was literally doing it to get pregnant. If she had, I doubt any of them would have consented to have sex with her.

She didn’t get their consent and took it away.
