a girl with opinions, interests, a backbone?
burn her at the stake.

A man who tells you palo santo smells bad is not rejecting the scent ā heās rejecting the clearing. Pay attention.
repeat after me:
they will not force us
they will stop degrading us
they will not control us
we will be victorious.
šø soft revolution loadingā¦
fun fact:
men reset every 24 hours
we reset every 28 days
but sure, tell me again how Iām āinconsistentā
for needing rest, softness, and space
in a system built to break me
Iām not lazy.
youāre just addicted to grind culture.
pretty.
powerful.
previously underestimated.
wonāt happen again.
they built a world on a 24-hour loop
then asked us why we were tired
why we changed
why we couldnāt keep up
but our rhythm was never linear
we were born of moons and tides
not clocks and deadlines
Iām not broken.
Iām just not built for burnout.
women asking for monogamy arenāt entitled
theyāre just clear
and if clarity scares you, thatās not her problem
if wanting love, loyalty, and flowers makes me a villain in 2025, then hand me the cape and cue the rainstorm.
iāll be over here romanticizing my life anyway šš¤
soft reminder: desiring love doesnāt make you unhealed.
it makes you human.
some of us were never too sensitive. we were just surrounded by people who benefitted from our silence.
If they wouldāve burned witches at the stake for having boundaries, I wouldāve been smoke by now.
this work will cost you
because when you stand with survivors
you invite the shadows out of hiding
abusers will mask themselves as āconcerned citizensā
enablers will call themselves āneutralā
and the world will ask if youāre sure,
again and again
this is not easy work
but it is holy work
Dating apps trick people into thinking love is about options instead of alignment.
Victim was never my name.
It was a label given to me in someone elseās story.
I chose survivor -
because I wanted my story back.
the moment you express a standard, people act like youāre asking for too much.
youāre not.
Every time I speak about what I want in a relationship, someone shows up to defend something I never attacked. Projection is loud.
just because iām calm doesnāt mean it didnāt hurt. just because iām posting doesnāt mean iāve moved on. healing isnāt linear and neither is my content.
dating apps are just slot machines for situationships.
apparently monogamy is controversial now š
š»
i just want emotional safety, good communication, and flowers delivered regularly like a subscription service.
is that so much to ask?
He said my palo santo smelled bad. I said thatās not a red flag, thatās an exorcism.
repeat after me.
Iām not a victim.
Iām a survivor.
Thereās a difference.
One keeps the story centered on what was done to me.
The other reminds me I lived. And I get to decide what happens next.
when a woman says what she wants,
they call her entitled
when she refuses to settle,
they call her difficult
maybe itās not her
maybe itās the fear of not being in control anymore
The more I heal, the less I crave almosts.
iām not a ācool girlā about my peace. i cleanse. i cut cords. i talk to spirits. i burn things. i walk away.
daily reminder that softness is strength šø
what no one tells you about working with survivors:
you will meet people who think ābeing fairā
means giving abusers the mic too
like sorry,
this isnāt a debate club
itās a trauma-informed space
and weāre not taking arguments from the defense table
A man who says palo santo smells bad is a man you should be spiritually and physically running from.
Being a survivor doesnāt mean pretending it didnāt hurt.
It means choosing not to stay stuck in someone elseās narrative.
I lived. I choose. I tell it now.
