i wish people would realise this isn’t about “shipping” it’s about the way this show is mishandling the abuse of a 15 year old girl

CSA evidence? Would you mind expanding on that?

hi so the original theory was not mine, i didn't even notice until i read kaypeace21's theory on it:

https://kaypeace21.tumblr.com/post/661685313902641152/the-subtext-in-st-shows-lonnie-is-more-than-just-a

i've also talked to a friend about it and we talked about how the pictures that Jonathan took of Nancy undressing could hint at Lonnie taking pictures of Jonathan/Will like that.

It's really hard to read and completely changed my outlook on stranger things as a whole, so only read it if you're sure you can stomach it.

I hope this helps!

HELP ME FIND FIC

I’m looking for a fic where Jason as Red Hood thinks he has a stalker and it turns out it’s Tim Drake. Tim is like 11 and he was following Jason because he wanted to see for himself how he really was because his dad told him that if he didn’t behave the Red Hood would hurt him. (TW:CSA). Jack Drake abuses Tim and Jason pretty much adopts him. There’s a guy named Marcus in it

TW:csa, abuse, neglect

Headcanon: Andrew was given a stuffed animal when he was like two or three years old. the foster family he was with at the time had a bio daughter who loved cats. She had a shit tone of stuffed animals of them and when one ripped it was given to Andrew.

She became his most precious belonging. He never parted from her not when he’s 4 and locked in a dark room for three days with only a bottle of water and a can of tuna while his foster mother went on a bender. Not when he’s 5 and was beaten half to death for sneaking out of his room trying to get dinner for him and the other five kids who haven’t eaten. Not when he’s 6 and getting verbally assaulted for simply existing to loud. He named her Sir Fat Cat McCatterson.

He when through everything with sir. Sir was there then he was r@ped for the first time.

Andrew threw her out the morning after. Looking at her reminded him of too much which hurt more than being without it, but he really did like that toy.

So in fifteen some years when he finds a fucked up looking orange kitten he’s reminded of his old stuffed animal and (definitely not because it made him feel anything) decided to bring her home and give her the title “sir fat cat McCatterson”.

really hate the physical sensation of tingling on my back from a childhood sexual trauma that is too mortifying to want to remember in any detail. even when you have enough context clues to work off of it wont ever just go the fuck away! i wish i could actually lose memories both in the mind and body instead of just partially burying them in the mind yet they torment my body and also influence my destructive behavior for 20 years

[outrowingss]

As for Elizabeth, she might have blushed when Seymour’s name was mentioned, but blushing can mean many things; it could have been a sign of shame, especially if she’d had to suffer his unwelcome sexual advances. Despite this, she remained polite and pleasant, but this could well have been an act of self-preservation; her way of avoiding potential conflict with a powerful man twenty-five years her senior.

Firstly gotta congratulate u on your work. Your theories are amazing and detail-oriented. You are a genious! I was thinking the ST team already linked Will on next season to Spring awakening the musical which I don't know much of. If you have any post about it let me know please. But the meaning of that word Sping awakening can also be linked to coming of age right? So this conexion makes me very excited for what's to come. What's your thoughts about that?

Aw, thank-you.

Yeah , talked about it forever ago. It was strange how every other play is pretty up-beat. Unlike Will's.

Like Robin's was "prom". About a lesbian highschooler living in indianna and dealing with close minded people. Makes sense...

El had "matilda'- both her and el have telekenesis.

Steve had "MAMA mia"- prob a mom joke.

Nancy had "legally blonde'- rich,hard working, intelligent girl dealing with sexism (in professional settings) because of her appearance.

Will's ...play is considered one of the most controversial plays ever- cause it tackles many tr*ggering taboo subjects , for its time (written in 1891). It has queer boys ,sure . But they could have picked another queer play that has gay male characters that isn't so ... dark. Like you can read the synopsis it has many many dark plot points . Tw: Like one character in it had a se*ually ab*sive father .Which is again... a weird theme in many of the movies said to be inspo for s4. Could be a coincidence, could mean something. But that play is a unusual pick just because it's such a dark play. Ofcourse they could have picked it as simply a spring break ref/lgbt ref /byler ref ? It had a romantic sublplot between 2 lgbt-highschool boys, during spring (byler) . Regardless, it sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the others, simply because it's a much darker play than the others. Like, I'd say any dark subject you can think of is in this play.

A rant about Amazon's lack of trigger warnings

Mention of rape and csa below.

TRIGGER WARNING

So I was reading a sample of Judith Arnopp's Intractable Heart for a mini review. It features the brief but graphic onpage rape of Margaret Neville, in early 1537. Margaret Neville was born around 1525, making her at most 12 when this rape occurs.

Now I'm not going to tell a writer what she can and can't depict. Credit where credit is due, the scene is nauseating, horrifying, and the author acknowledges the pain and shame the victim feels. It is not titillating, nor is it porn.

BUT. BUT BUT BUT.

There is nothing in the blurb or in the sample that could warn the reader that is going to happen.

This is what the blurb says about the Pilgrimage of Grace: "In Yorkshire, Lady Katheryn Latimer, and her step-children, Margaret and John, are held under siege at Snape Castle." That's it! No mention of child rape! How is even the most well informed reader to know? Given the rape is most likely fictional?

Any survivor of assault could be merrily browsing through samples of histfic and stumble across that.

It would take hardly any time to put a warning in the sample, or in the fucking blurb for that matter, and it would easily avoid causing such pain.

PSA - on CSA and my interpretation of Dolores

putting everything below the cut because I am aware this is pretty heavy. But in light of recent anons and IMs it needs to be addressed.

I’ve recently received some anons stating my interpretation of Lolita is wrong and that I’m misunderstanding the intent of the novel. I will NOT, under ANY circumstances ever write my Dolores as in love with HH or take anything that that unreliable rat bastard pedophile narrator says about Dolores at face value. He’s a liar and per the author of the book you are not supposed to side with HH.

I’ve also had some people approach through my IMs asking to  smut as well as change how I write Dolores. per my rules, despite that I default Dolores as 18 at her youngest, there will be NO SMUT. I’m not comfortable with it, and I’m not comfortable glossing over the purpose of the book. you ask and you will be hardblocked.

As for the complaints on her anxiety, skittishness, and tendency to “180″, I’ve based this on studies I’ve read from reliable sources on PubMed. You are welcome to dig through and read for yourself as i know I will keep coming back and try to stay up to date on what those  journals have to say and apply that to my characterization.

As for why Dolores is all over the place, its because the few studies on age, gender , and societal pressure tend to outline that  men and women handle CSA different from each other. There were higher suicide rates among those 65 and older as of a 2019 retrospective study due to victim-blaming. Women are more likely than men to be hypersexual/ promiscuous as well as have long periods of limited or non-existent sexual activity. Among all genders it was found that they are more likely to participate in sexual activity with strangers than people they know and have a difficult time forming last relationships ( both friend, familial, and work wise). PTSD, anxiety, depression, and high risk behaviors ( thrill seeking, drug, and alcohol use)  are also prevalent in all ages, especially those without a good support system.

I’m not going to erase these things form Dolores. She is not Lolita. Even the book makes it explicitly clear that the only person who even calls her Lolita is her rapist.

I understand that this is a very taboo topic, especially in the late 40s/early 50s.   I’m not going to erase it from her. 

If a blog about  the  exploration in found family, healing through built community,  and overcoming trauma isn’t for you, then please, I implore you to not follow.

This story dates from 2010, though most people outside of Portugal have probably never heard of the Casa Pia abuse scandal.

LISBON, Portugal—Seven people were convicted of child sex abuse in Portugal on Friday in a major trial that lasted nearly six years and shocked the country.

The six men and one woman were found guilty of crimes including sexually abusing minors and adolescents, raping children and running a pedophile ring at a state-run children's home in Lisbon during the 1990s.

The six men were handed jail sentences of between six and 18 years for sexual abuse. The woman, whose house was used by the ring, was not given a custodial sentence because of a 2007 change in the law, the judge said in the televised ruling without elaborating.

The longest sentence was given to a 53-year-old former driver at the home, Carlos Silvino, who confessed to more than 600 crimes and gave evidence against the other defendants.

Others sent to prison were Carlos Cruz, a popular television presenter with a three-decade career in show business, who will serve seven years; and Jorge Ritto, a decorated career diplomat and former UNESCO ambassador, who was given six years, eight months in jail.

Their lawyers said they would consider an appeal.

Chief prosecutor Miguel Matias said the victims were pleased with the outcome.

The victims -- now aged between 16 and 22 -- gave chilling testimony during the trial and identified their alleged abusers by pointing to them across the courtroom.

Bernardo Teixeira, one of the victims, said he felt vindicated. "The court recognized that we were telling the truth," he said. "It's a happy ending for us. The pedophiles are going to jail."

The three judges at the trial read out a summarized version of the court's decisions, but they did not refer to dozens of other alleged crimes they found to be unproven. The full ruling, which reportedly runs to almost 2,000 pages, is due to be released next week.

The trial, believed to be Portugal's longest, included testimony from more than 800 witnesses and experts, including 32 alleged victims.

The abuse centered on Casa Pia, a 230-year-old institution caring for roughly 4,500 needy children, most of them living in dormitories at its premises around the capital.

A whistleblower broke the scandal in 2002, followed by a yearlong police investigation. The case that shook public trust in the country's institutions, and the protracted trial fueled outrage about Portugal's notoriously slow legal system.

Catalina Pestana, who was head of Casa Pia during the period when some of the abuse took place, said she would not celebrate the ruling.

"Nobody in their right mind can be happy after a case like this," she said. "These were some of the most horrible stories I've ever heard."

Casa Pia "shared some of the blame" for the crimes because it failed to detect them, the judges said.

Alvaro Carvalho, a psychiatrist who has counseled the victims and was in court with them, said they were nervous as they awaited the verdict.

"They calmed down when the judge ruled that the crimes were proven," Carvalho told reporters. "In a way, it's society making reparation for what happened to them."
