“Sick people usually aren’t smart.” Is a strangely frequent statement in a week where a CEO killer has hit the news. I am rewatching “The Theory of Everything” streaming on Prime video as a reminder of how true that statement is not. Insulting a person for the color of their skin they were born with or religion is bullying, a slur, and abusive. Insulting a sick person for their brain or body health they were born with and calling them crazy, not smart, and bad is also bullying, a slur, and abusive. I think “The Theory of Everything” 2014 is a great movie, and I give it a five star review.
My medical grade insomnia started when I was raped and beaten at the military base called Fort Lee in Virginia in 2005 by military men. Why did they try to deploy me when I had not completed basic training or AIT they wanted to isolate a victim? Yes. Years worth of going to doctors did nothing to help the rape trauma, and doctors tried to dump horrible medication into my body with disgusting side effects which I would not need if I was not raped and beaten on a military base. It is a big part of why I hate Virginia with all my soul. It is also why I never date co-workers at all in my life now. Today a co-worker asked me. “What is wrong?” I wanted to say. “I have horrible nightmares as a rape victim and my family is forcing me to live in Virginia where it happened, and this is not making it any better.” What I said was. “I could not sleep great last night.” Another irony is my family have forced me to leave all my Texas and Louisiana friends behind to live in the area of Virginia where I was raped and beaten, and would be constantly reminded of being raped and beaten. Know that if a co-worker does not want to talk about her health problems at work she is not legally obligated to talk about them. Instead try harder to avoid situation where politicians allow rapists to flourish as Biden needed to change the laws on reporting rape in the military, and new politicians are threatening to roll back these protections in future years. Extremely relevant in an election year.
Also note they did not change the rules because of one or two people. They changed the rules because the complaints were really common- place.
Not only did a death in the family happen to me this week, but two of my school friends died as well. The pandemic is over yet MORE people are passing on in my life how is that happening? If you don’t laugh you cry.
Please give me well wishes of get-well-soon as I have the worst cold of the year. Everyone else who got this cold get well soon as this has my voice lost and my head swimming.
