Some girl back in my school days used to call me Christophen instead of Christopher because she said my lowercase Rs looked like Ns in cursive. Huh… so that’s why my pen pal Curt never replied to my letters…
In a toxic #narcissist family, the narcissists will bully the scapegoat of the family relentlessly (typically chosen because they are the honest, non-sociopath of the family) until visible signs of psychological abuse trauma are evident, i.e. depression, anger, withdrawn or antisocial behavior, and then they will use those abuse trauma behaviors THAT THEY CAUSED AS A RESULT OF ABUSE to point the finger at the scapegoat and tell people, “look, they’re antisocial, they’re weird, they’re angry, they’re the problem.” Further isolating their victim and cutting the scapegoat off from any outside support or understanding. It’s vicious abuse.
Abuse isn’t always obvious. It can be the silent treatment, dismissal of your feelings, or constant criticism masked as “help.” If it makes you feel worthless or trapped, it’s abuse. Your truth matters. Nobody gets to silence you.

@PamKeithFL Also a PA voter here (Berks County). Four years ago, it said my ballot was received and counted. This time, it says “RECORD - BALLOT RETURNED”
Wtf?
@MintBlais And even if the blocked people can’t interact, their not-yet-blocked flying monkeys will do the stalking and harassing for them!
Elon has repeatedly proved himself to be a less-than-mediocre dipshit who isn’t as smart as he believes himself to be.
@superjude81 I remember those from the McDonald’s happy meals. I believe she had the pink car, Gonzo had the tricycle, and Kermit had a skateboard. Loved the cartoon.
