From my recent open letter to my estranged teenage daughters. From my secondary publication on Substack, Dear Two Daughters.

Please take a moment to click on the link below and give my letter a read, like, share, and comment. I'm working towards getting these letters out into the world and your support means the world to me.

This piece is titled 'Just another empty week' and it is very close and dear to my heart. In it, I highlight the ambivalent nature of the longterm and complex grief of parental alienation and domestic abuse. I also talk about how the weight of grief shifts over time.

Just caught myself up on the #TaylorFrankiePaul situation and my main takeaway is that the US justice system totally CAN #BelieveSurvivors and deliver swift consequences to domestic abusers who are also celebrities/public figures so what the actual fuck is the holdup w those #Epstein files

Baby boy died from fractured skull by own parents who called him ‘monster’

Ugh, it’s been a week of dreaming about my ex being in my life for some reason, not respecting boundaries and still claiming “ownership” of me. So gross. I divorced 10 years ago!
Last night was a Ramadan themed dream, being coerced into keeping up appearances (me saying I’m not staying with you, we are done) while visiting a work buddy in a multilevel mansion, providing a lavish iftar for everyone, everyone dressed to the nines, food copious, fucking swag and gift bags. I reluctantly wedged myself between him and a Danish guest (solace). Kept my head down trying to disappear. When the guys got up to pray, I left and wandered the mansion. Top floors had families who were staff, staff grannies watching tv, staff kids off duty kept in their area. It felt better to be away from the dick posturing wealth and piety. The hostess found me up there. She was also a convert stuck in a situation because of her kids. She too was hiding out and taking a break from the party. She cornered me, and confessed she really needed to get laid, but her husband couldn’t, couldn’t wank because it’s not allowed in Islam, and asked me to help relieve her. (This wasn’t “hot” it was human, and seeking empathy.) I actually declined because there was no safe place, kids everywhere. We even had to keep our language subtle and coded while kids rambled around us. She told me she too was sick of the posturing and stuck in a marriage because she has no financial means to leave, and kids. :(

@DieFurie Vielen Dank für das Teilen der Screenshots, habe nur Bruchstücke im TV gesehen. Es ist eine wirklich furchtbare Sache.

Alleine dein Hashtag miss fiel mir etwas.
#NotAllMenButAlwaysMen - ich habe eine Zeit lang misshandelte Männer betreut und kann dir sagen dass dies nicht geschlechterspezifisch ist, Fälle gibt es genauso in anderer Richtung. #NotAllFemalesButFemalesToo evtl. besser #KeineHäuslicheGewalt #KeineVergewaltigung #EndDomesticAbuse #NoDomesticAbuse #DomesticAbuse

New report highlights transportation gaps for rural Albertans leaving domestic abuse
The report from the Alberta Council of Women's Shelters, called A Ride Can Save a Life, draws on data from a pilot project that allowed the Council to distribute $113,900 in provincial grant funding to 22 shelters across Alberta’s rural, remote, and northern communities.
