@blueoctober Happiest of birthdays to my favorite birthday twin, Mr. Justin Furstenfeld! I hope you’ve had a great day, wherever you are. 🥳 #december14th #bestbirthday

I’m grateful for my chosen family this year, because they truly love me without conditions. I’m also thankful for pie. 😋

@PixelChick77 It’s actually documented on Livejournal! Yaaaaay. 🙄 I’m okay. I’ve had a long time and a lot of therapy to be where I am now. Thank you, friend. Hope you’re okay too. ❤️

So if you celebrated the decision yesterday, you can go ahead and get out of my life now. Because clearly you prioritize the wrong things, and would have shamed me into carrying a child I would resent, and then shamed me for needing help after. Don’t let the door hit you. 🖕🏻

So now, 15+ years later, I look back and wonder what would have happened if #RoeVsWade wasn’t a thing back then. In all honesty, I don’t think I would be here now. It’s not anyone’s business in the government to decide for any woman what happens with her body. 5/??

I ended up being forced to make the hard choice and my son went to live with his dad. I fell deeper into a depression but I focused it into self-destruction instead. It has taken me YEARS to recover and be able to feel safe again, because a man decided my body was his to use 4/??

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

I blamed myself and had so much guilt about what happened. My depression got so bad I couldn’t get out of bed. I ended up getting fired. I lost my apartment and car. I was homeless and my son was watching me just fade away while we were couch surfing. 3/??

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

Cont’d. I was living with my parents. I was absolutely sure that if I had that baby, it would have wrecked the life I was trying to build. Plus it was a pregnancy resulting from violence. I ended up having an abortion, and then a breakdown that resulted in the darkest days 2/??

When I was 25, I was assaulted by a man I went on a date with for my birthday. He r*ped me while I was passed out from what felt like being roofied. I found out I was pregnant about 5-6 weeks later. I agonized over what to do. I was a single mom with 1 child & no home. 1/??

During my free time over the last few months, I’ve been sending faxes over the internet to congress with some choice words for the reps from my state. I checked my mail and I’m getting a letter from Grassley. I wonder if he’s mad I told him to retire. 🤔🖕🏻

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

Him, upon seeing my phone while he was calling me: THAT’S the picture you have for my contact photo?
Me: Look. I have only so many pictures of you. The other is you flipping me off. I’d rather have you looking happy, licking a cock. #nocontextforyou

I’m glad 2021 is over. I’m not making resolutions, or any major plans for this year. I just want to get through till I turn 42 and I will then have the answers to Life, the Universe, and everything.

Best idea I’ve had today: Wear my shark onesie while waiting for trick or treaters and have the music from Jaws playing on my Bluetooth speaker that’s strategically placed in the skeleton that’s handing out candy for me. 💀🦈🍬🖤👻

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

I’m so tired. I’ve been working with my therapist to get my head in order, or at least more manageable. I know it’s a process and I need to practice being kind to myself. It’s hard to un-learn behavior that’s ingrained by trauma. #depression #mentalhealth

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

So let me get this straight.. we’re on the verge of another pandemic, the current administration is cool with the working class going broke, the oppressive heat is coming back for round 2+, and the world is still a dumpster fire? Got it. 😩

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

@heathen_king I always think of you when I see Trent memes anywhere. Hope you and the fam are well. 😊

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

@heathen_king I found you a Trent Reznor meme to share with the baby. 😂

This has basically been me since 11AM. #anxietyweirdo #squishy

[Arwen @ajthizzle]

This is kind of random, but I was at 5 Below today getting Xmas stuff, and I found this ridiculous pillow and it is the softest, squishiest thing I’ve ever touched. I bought it bc it instantly eased my anxiety when I hugged it. It is now my Squishy. 😍😂

I was watching a TikTok and minding my own business when the dude in the video said “I love you, you silly little bitch!”. My 12 y/o pipes up from across the room, “I love you too!” and I just 😂😂😂
