Thank you Paul. It's an awful world where I am in the position to feel "lucky" because I was the "right" kind of victim.
God that poor woman.

Why can't we get something like this every Sunday morning instead of the shit you normally pass of as "comics"?

@2 And why can't you just say "thank you"?

I demand some other kind of trigger warning before you post the word "trigger warning" in the future. I myself am traumatized by the idea that supposedly emancipated adults need to live in a giant gluten-free daycare center also safe from hurt fee fees :(

@6, "Trigger Warning: Breakfast" is the title of the piece. It refers to the artist's association of breakfast eggs to her rape. Dumbass.

Gluten free was simply a derogatory euphemism that describes America's new fragile, entitled generation. It's like me referring to you as a slow-witted fag that doesn't understand metaphors or irony. I doubt you're gay and don't care anyway.

@6, I'm sorry, I had assumed you were posting something relevant to the art piece referred to in the post. Never mind, carry on, dumbass.

@8: It was the title of the piece, so your attempt at some sort of, I don't know humor?, wasn't even pertinent. I mean we get that you hate the idea of trigger warnings, we do, but you're going to really hurt you knee jerking it like that all the time.
Maybe you should go put some ice on it.

Simple truth is powerful.

Normalcy is deceiving.

Processing is painful.

The body's wounds heal, but the wounds in the mind weep.

The deep, abiding wound, the one that cut into the marrow, was inflicted by me against myself.

...the hate, anger, fear and doubt that I had for myself...for failing me, for not being enough (strong, smart, powerful, fast, discerning enough), for not being trustworthy to protect me.

Learning to trust, love, accept, forgive...myself/yourself...again...that's healing.

Thanks for posting, Paul.
