Yes! I believe I have! And misogyny takes its toll. The continued micro aggressions of fake accounts… threats… but I just delete. Cords cut! Still therapeutic to write about.

So therapeutic to read out loud, you have no idea! I think I'm going to record myself reading this one. Would you mind if I do? I will tag you, of course

The imagery here… water rising, refusing to drain — it carries the whole weight of what trauma repeats.

Your voice in this is steady and fierce.

Thank you for letting us witness the break in the pattern, Venus.

Yeah, thanks for reading! I’m on a little trip with my kids but started one of your pieces and really look forward to reading the rest. What I read so far was very powerful! Thanks for showing up for me here. It means so much! ♥️

Thank you for sharing this. The depth and honesty in your writing really struck me. It is rare to see someone express something so heavy in a way that feels this clear and true.

It takes a lot of courage to write like this.

I will keep following your work and your voice.
