15 yrs ago, while hiking on my own, I was violently assaulted & raped. Every anniversary, I go for a solo hike to remind myself I can still do it, that there is great beauty to be found, even after trauma. Here’s today’s hike. And my essay I always post 👉tinyurl.com/482k67e9 
Woolly friends along the way

🧵1/8 Let’s recap the major conspiracy theories passing their six month expiration date over the last two weeks and are suddenly no longer misinformation. And, what do you call it when something that was officially misinformation is now just “information?” #fact
2/8 The #Wuhan lab leak: having received support from FBI Director Chris Wray and now the US Senate. Remember in 2020, Fauci and Francis Collins were so concerned about “lab leak” misinformation they organized a secret media campaign to discredit anyone who promoted the idea.
3/8 Oh, and lest we forget, it was a hate crime — “racist” — to blame the Wuhan Flu on Chyna.
But not now!

Some personal news. I am no longer a @BCCancer patient. I was released from my amazing oncologist’s care today, to go out in the world and be healthy. I cried a lot. Such a relief I cannot even explain. #cancer #NED #survivor #endcervicalcancer
Also, I made it through four years of cancer patienting and never met @VancityReynolds so I now I'm actually crying tears of sadness. My chance is gone.
I am so blown away from all the love. I didn’t expect it to hit me so hard in the feelings. It was a roller coaster day that ended with learning that a kid I’ve been cheering on died. Cancer sucks. He had cancer three times in his young life. Consider donating to @bccancerfdn ❤️

I'm seeing a lot on the TL about #Survivor's policy on prescription meds. There are a lot of misconceptions and half truths about contestants being "forced" to stop taking necessary meds. Based on my experience, that's not the case. 1/
I took armodafanil on the island. It's the definition of a Survivor PED. It helps you stay awake. It improves focus and alertness. It doesn't suppress my appetite, but it does impact metabolism. 2/ medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/…
I've heard a lot of stories about people who went cold turkey off of serious meds while on the show. Some of these stories are linked to well-known medevacs. But, afaik, none of these people were "forced" to stop taking necessary meds. 3/

The holiday season is a time of celebration and a chance to reconnect with family and friends, but it can also present challenges for some survivors of sexual assault.
Perpetrators of sexual violence are usually someone the victim knows.

This is especially true for those who have experienced child sexual abuse. For survivors, holiday gatherings may mean facing painful memories, feelings of anxiety, or a chance of repeated harm.
Large gatherings can also make it more difficult for survivors

THREAD For #IWD21 please take 5 mins to read & share Gaia's story. Gaia loved #InternationalWomensDay & she should be here celebrating it with us. Instead our bright, brave and beautiful star 🌠 has become part of it. 🌹 #JusticeForGaia #InternationalWomensDay #RapeJusticeNow
We are a family fighting for answers about what happened to our girl who went missing on 7 November 2017 when she was 19 yrs old. 🌹 Eleven days later, her body was found. The coroner found she’d died of hypothermia. We call it a death by indifference...

This is not a definition of your character but of those who hurt you...you didn’t & don’t deserve this type of abuse ever...especially when you don’t know why. How you handle this is your strength...just know you are amazing to have come through it & stand tall.
Sending love & hugs to anyone that needs that extra tlc today or just to say we’re all strong & amazing 🤗❤️

**WARNING TRIGGERS** (I HAVE PERMISSION TO SHARE STORY)
Today was stressful & hard. It was emotional. I broke down in tears along side my volunteers & a young mother of two, who felt like her world was ending. She wanted to save her children from what she's had to endure.
Today was stressful & hard. It was emotional. I broke down in tears along side my volunteers & a young mother of two, who felt like her world was ending. She wanted to save her children from what she's had to endure.
She didn't want to end up a statistic. She chose to leave a volatile living situation & move to a safe place where she began the process of living for herself & living for her children.
She chose life not abuse. She chose her kids over her partner. She chose smiles over tears.

She told all of us that she had been planning for over a year to leave & was on the verge of leaving when #Covid19AB happened.
She was scared/afraid/had panic attacks not knowing how to help herself let alone her children. Then she saw us on @GlobalCalgary with @global_leslie.

“I’m not going to publicly name the business for obvious reasons, but a store manager called me back after thinking over the facts I shared with him.. I’m allowed to come in to buy a new couch #mask free! My current couch is making my #migraines worse, I can’t hold out any more.
I am so relieved!! Kind & decent humans do still exist. Don’t be afraid to advocate for yourself, even if you tremble as you do so.”

【日英対訳】宇佐崎しろ氏「アクタージュ読者の皆様へ」Translation of Usazaki Shiro's statement: "To the readers of #ActAge,"｜2020.8.24｜ @tkatsumi06j #note note.com/tkatsumi06j/n/… Now with bilingual introduction to add some context. #MeToo #WeToo #GropingIsSexualAssault
In translating this statement I took special care in the use of terminology that relate to sexual violence. As a professional translator and #HeForShe activist, I was particularly alarmed by the amateur translation of "強制わいせつ" as 'sexual harassment'. This is outright wrong.
By law, the definition of "強制わいせつ" is Forcible Indecency which is forcible enactment of sexually indecent acts against a person who is not under the age of 13. This is equivalent to sexual assault but NOT sexual harassment.

Partie 1: Les différences
Elles sont nombreuses, la première étant le format

I have received some truly thoughtful & raw-truth questions for tonight’s Watch Party... I’m excited to dive into topics I’ve not publicly tackled before, and I hope you’re there to join in! See you tonight at 5CST/6EST!!! #VictorNotVictim #Survivor #TimesUp #MeTooInBlue
Last night there were nearly 200 in attendance at the Watch Party! Thank you so much to everyone that logged in & participated! Thank you, as well, to those who wanted to be there & couldnt! The dialogue was amazing & I appreciate you all taking time to be there! Until next time!

She is now traveling all over #Italy to tell her story, and has even been voted a life #senator in gratitude for her work. But for months, the #Auschwitz survivor Liliana Segre gets Daily Hundreds of hate messages,
death threats and #antiSemitic #inflammatory messages that she is now under permanent #police protection. Yesterday, 5000 Denonstranten met on track 23 in #Milan. (The track for transport to #Auschwitz) At the monument, people met to express their solidarity with the survivors.
@SimonFanshawe Fairly shocking to find eradication of "mixed wards" By @NHSEngland @NHSImprovmeent was only rebranding exercise & that now they just lie about #male genitalia to #female patients so they have no way to protect themselves. @CMO_England @CNOEngland

they were being pulled into something that happened so long ago.
This church just happens to be within walking distance of my house, and they just happened to hire the youth pastor from my former church who ignored my abuse and let my abuser continue to work with students.

Have you noticed that the only time #mentalhealth ever really enters the national conversation is when it’s being used as a scapegoat for violence? [Thread]

This despite the fact persons w/ mental health conditions are significantly more likely to be victims of violence, including gun violence, than perpetrators.
This despite the fact most Americans don’t have access to quality mental health care services & programs.
