people who dont experience it cannot comprehend how awful executive dysfunction is. I WANT to do the task, i have the resources TO do the task, i will feel better having DONE the task
but i cant fucking do the task
a true liberal would never say that
American students, do you really enjoy studying northen-american literature? So far I've read "The Catcher in the Rye" and I'm almost done with "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", and I honestly believe that american characters are much more relatable with the brazillian ones. I mean, I totally respect Machado de Assis and I recognize the importance of José de Alencar to our literature, but honestly, Holden Caulfield and Tom Sawyer are much more interesting than Brás Cubas and Iracema...

I could never get into Supernatural or Buffy The Vampire Slayer or Teen Wolf, but of course I'm watching My Babysitter's A Vampire now that it's back on Netflix

tw: rape!!!
i know this has nothing to do with this blog but i need to talk about this.
a brazilian influencer was raped by a businessman in 2018 while working to promote a luxury beach club in florianópolis. she was drugged, abandoned by her friends (who later made fun of her) and raped.
she decided to speak up and report him and let me tell you, she has proof. medical exams, witnesses, security videos from the beach club (in which she’s visibly drunk/on drugs, barely standing up straight, and we can see him by her side).
the trial had been going on for 2 years. the rapist, andré de camargo aranha, white, rich and with some very powerful connections, hired one of the most expensive lawyers in santa catarina (and also known for defending big far-right activists) who humiliated the victim, showing pictures of her in a bikini (the olddddddd ridiculous tactic), making fun of her while she cried, calling her tears fake and accusing her of lying to get followers (she lost her instagram account, her job, her friends. she spent the last 2 years living for therapy appointments and the case. this makes no fucking sense).
he was first considered guilty, then innocent, and now he was sentenced with something along the lines of… unintentional rape?
no, that is not a valid sentence. we don’t have that in the constitution. what we do have is “estupro de vulnerável”, when someone rapes a minor or an unconscious/drugged/drunk person (or anyone who is unable to consent), and that should be the final sentence. not a made up word so you won’t make powerful people angry.
all of this makes me feel sad and tired and defeated and TERRIFIED because of the precedent it creates. i honestly wanna die. the last bit of me that believed in justice died today. i need to study today but i don’t think i’ll be able to.
i just hope this girl has peace. in life. because they sure are trying to kill her.
