A li’l present for my bff, Indie. His name is Narius. He’s a stay-at-home dad of three little kids and also happens to look like romance-novel Celtic Jesus.
It’s even better to know that he’s my oldest original character, and was originally a skinny, clean shaven, pale, emo bishie punk. Just keep that in mind while you look at what he’s become.
Could we have a before and after picture please?
Wooooooaaaaah that is one hell of a transformation. He’s become quite the man since growing out of the dark phase :D
Leslie Morgan Steiner: Why domestic violence victims don’t leave …
I fucking hate it when people say the woman is stupid for staying with her abuser and it’d be so easy to leave.
NO IT ISN’T.
7 years later it’s still a possibility I consider. That 70% window doesn’t really close. No matter how far you move (3,000 miles, then another 1,000), or how different your life becomes. Staying in one place sometimes feels like a slowly accumulating weight.
I guess I never really thought about it that way before.
And this is why the law must allow battered partners to kill their abusers. Dead serious.
I totally agree.
Uhhhh.
The above statements really needs some amelioration, in my opinion.
What we actually need is some legal protections for women who DO end up killing their abusers:
Currently, there are approximately 2,000 battered women in America who are serving prison time for defending their lives against their batterers.
As many as 90% of the women in prison today for killing men had been battered by those men.
Women charged with the death of a mate have the least extensive record of any people convicted.
The average prison sentence for men who kill their intimate partners is 2 to 6 years. Women who kill their partners are sentenced, on average, to 15 years.
A pair of Maryland cases vividly illustrates this inequality in sentencing. In one case, a judge in Baltimore County, Maryland sentenced Kenneth Peacock to 18 months for killing his unfaithful wife. The very next day, another judge in the same county sentenced Patricia Ann Hawkins to three years in prison for killing her abusive husband. Significantly, the prosecutor in the Peacock case requested a sentence twice as long as the one imposed, while the prosecutor in the Hawkins case requested one-third of the sentence imposed.

Marissa Alexander alone is proof we’re living in some kind of fucked up dystopian future already.
Woe to anyone who isn’t the nice white lady with TV Mom hair, Ivy League Education and several published books like the one in the gifset.
No wonder I was absolutely rabid with “motivation” to become successful in the last few years; no wonder I still am.
I wanted to be seen as one of the ones worth something.

Someone did a comic of kaiju mittens like the first week pacific rim was out.
Yeah a friend told me that not a minute after I made the post, so it was a pretty unnecessary one in retrospect. There are two examples of kaiju mittens that I can think of actually :)
