Fortunately I'm both well supported wiihtn my own networks and supported by strangers. Almost inevitably, every time someone tells me that I'm being too angry or too alienating, I get a bunch of messages from women and other survivors telling me that my anger has allowed them to feel their own anger in the face of rape culture. I get that some people like to make tone arguments, but they should really be careful that their emotional policing is actually backed up by other people. I mean, complaining about how anger at being specifically targeted by rape threats is inappropriate works best when the person you're complaining to doesn't keep getting contradictory messages from random supporters.It's totally ok that people that people aren't responding immediately. To be honest, I just needed to know that there were other people out there who understood what I was experiencing was abusive, and I get that people can't immediately meet that need.Mindy and Aqua of the Questioners, I feel your worries about the animals you care for. We've recently had to be very aware of the health of the dog we who's part of our family because he started to vomit up blood. My parents and I have suddenly realised that he's moved into the part of his life that involves more and more health issues. We have fortunately learnt how to deal with his current health problems but it's still difficult to realise that his spinal problems and digestive issues are going to add up over and over again.
