Deah Shaddy Barakat. Yusor Abu-Salha. Razan Abu-Salha. 

Barakat was a dental student at the University of North Carolina, and he started a campaign last year to send dental supplies to victims of the Syrian civil war. The YouCaring effort has raised more than $70,000 to date.

Yusor had planned to begin her dental studies at UNC-Chapel Hill this coming fall. The outlet also cited UNC officials as saying that she and Barakat were married in December — less than two months ago.

Razan was a student at North Carolina State University, where she studied architecture and environmental design. The New York Times notes that many have praised her artistic abilities; she won an award from her school “for capturing 3-D abstract model making with time-lapse video.”

These are the 3 victims of the Chapel Hill shooting — and we must remember them.

i feel like on here choosing ur own name is considered a trans thing but honestly everyone should choose their own names. tbh the idea of naming another person and expexting them to just like that name forever is ridiculous to me. give people autonomy is what im saying (or take ur autonomy)

abuse doesn't always go in cycles

Content note: This post contains graphic descriptions of emotional abuse and mentions physical abuse. Proceed with caution.

Often people describe abuse as occurring primarily in cycles (including specifically with the pronouns this way):

He is effusively loving

Then, he resents her being a separate person from him

Tension builds up

He explodes and hits her

Then he’s all ~remorseful~ and swears he’ll never do it again

Then he is effusively loving again

and the cycle continues

That’s definitely a real thing. But it’s not the only pattern (and even when it is, it happens in gender configurations other than male abusers and female victims, and it’s not always between romantic partners.) There are many, many patterns of abuse and they’re not all discussed very much.

Here’s another pattern (not the only other pattern):

The abusive person will be demeaning and effusively loving at the same time

They will do something degrading and something genuinely positive simultaneously

There won’t be a discernible cyclical pattern because both parts happen at the same time

This can be very, very disorienting to the victim, who might be tricked into seeing their abuser as loving, considerate, and insightful, and themself as not living up to their abuser’s love

eg:

Daniel: I love you so much. I brought you your favorite flowers. Not everyone would be so understanding of your irrational need for flowers.

Daniel hugs Debra

Debra hugs back 

Debra feels awful about herself, and feels good about Daniel

or:

Susan: Hey, the fair’s in town. Let’s go!

Susan: I made you a jacket to wear.

Bill: That’s beautiful! Thank you!

They drive to the fair, and it’s warm out, so Bill decides to leave the jacket in the car

Susan: Where’s your jacket? Don’t you know that it hurts my feelings when you reject my gifts? I just wanted to have a nice time with you.

Susan: I guess it’s not your fault. I know you’ve never been in a successful relationship before. We all have stuff to work on.

Bill then tearfully apologizes and promises to work on it.

tl;dr If someone is hurting you and it doesn’t seem to be happening in cycles, you are not alone. Abuse doesn’t always happen in a cycle of overt abuse and effusive love. Sometimes abuse is more mixed and constant. Scroll up for one example of a different pattern.

isnt it funny how the trans community has messages like “dont ask trans people about their genitals” but both trans and cis people alike meet intersex people and its the first fucking question we get
