Albert Camus, from a letter to María Casares featured in Correspondance, 1944-1959
“A book, too, can be a star, ‘explosive material, capable of stirring up fresh life endlessly,’ a living fire to lighten the darkness, leading out into the expanding universe.”
— Madeleine L’Engle

I actually do think we should discourage women from becoming housewives. Do not become financially dependent on a man. That's how a lot of women ended up dead over the years. A man gets violent suddenly and you have to choose between homelessness or potentially dying at his hand because you have an enormous gap in your resume and no degrees or certifications or anything that will help you pursue a career that will allow you to be financially independent. He owns your bank account. His name is probably the one on the car. Try and leave and he can report it stolen. Where will you go then?
Don't become a housewife.
And if you do become a housewife, take steps to protect yourself. Make sure you’re legally married, for starters; stay-at-home girlfriends have very little legal recourse to claim their partner’s assets in a breakup. Make sure your name is on the house deed/rental agreement, and have your car in your name, even if your spouse is paying for it. Have your spouse transfer money every month into an account solely in your name, so you can buy yourself things without needing permission, but also so you can save up to leave if needed.
If your spouse fights you on any of this, then don’t quit your job. The tradwife to poverty pipeline is real, and so is financial abuse.
also, many women/people experience controlling behaviour and domestic violence from their partner for the first time during pregnancy. don’t risk thinking “he’s just stressed, it’ll get better when the baby comes” because it won’t. neither you and your child will ever be safe with that man. get out as early and safely as you can
using violence to liberate people from sweatshops, unsafe mines, and grinding poverty isn't the same as using violence to impose those things on people. the idea that violence is morally repugnant regardless of context is a belief that every oppressor throughout history would love for the oppressed to hold

The Cure - Disintegration, 1989 Original LP.
"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012
The personalities of children with C-PTSD develop in the shadow of trauma and they appear to never make the developmental leap from amygdala to cortical executive functioning. Their lives are lived in a survival-based, amygdala-centric manner, and they are less connected to the consensual realities of the group mind. They are, in essence, constantly vulnerable to takeover by a more primitive version of the modern human brain—yet are tasked to live among others whose brains are organized in a different way. Day-to-day life is stressful, threatening, and difficult to navigate
Louis Cozolino, The Neuroscience of Psychotherapy
Wow, I can't think of anything more helpful to people who spent a large portion of their lives being traumatized and possibly gaslit than being spoken about categorically as on a "more primitive" level than the rest of humanity!
I get what this thinks it's describing - that chronic trauma can bias someone toward threat-response, make stress harder to regulate, make everyday life feel like it has stakes it objectively doesn't.
But the way it's phrased is doing that too-familiar style of psychological writing where a real mechanism gets inflated into a whole identity category that only ends up leading to harsher stigma against the people who have it.
"Never make the developmental leap," "amygdala-centric," "more primitive," "less connected to consensual reality". That's basically describing traumatized people as stuck in some earlier stage and not fully trustworthy about what's real. Like we're running an outdated operating system and everyone else has the current patch.
That framing is not remotely neutral. It dovetails perfectly with the way people already treat us when we're upset. It hands them a vocabulary for dismissing distress instead of understanding it.
Also, "less connected to the consensual realities of the group mind" is a wild thing to say about people whose trauma often came from group dynamics that were abusive, coercive, or straight-up gaslighting (ex. educational trauma, religious trauma, you get the idea). Sometimes the issue isn't that someone fundamentally can't access "consensus reality", it's that they learned the hard way that what gets called "consensus reality" can be wrong, hostile, or unsafe.
There's a useful idea here about how trauma shapes behavior. But dressing it up as "primitive vs. modern brain" turns an adaptation into a hierarchy of humanity and that's where it starts to feel less like insight and more like a socially acceptable way to say "these people are less reliable narrators of their own lives than the rest of us."
You all need to understand that autonomy and especially bodily autonomy NEEDS to include being allowed to do things that are bad for you. True bodily autonomy includes being allowed to do things that are risky, drugs, cosmetic procedures and the like. Bodily autonomy needs to include being allowed to get high or smoke or get a BBL. The important part is education about the risks
Dreams (1990)
its true that romance amd friendship will not solve everything but. objectively speaking its very hard to get sad when you can say 'lets go get cake tomorrow okay' and someone will go get cake with you. like there is some good at least. you know
