The #MutualAid Housewives of Bluesky County

[Besticus Maximus]

i got an email saying "can puppy wait for a follow up," do not fucking call me that. That is disgusting coming from you. Your edited article is no better. And it disgusts me that instead of taking any of the backlash to heart, you're calling people who take offense to this work puppies. It's as though in your mind, there are two people, the strong, virtuous people who will understand your work and agree with you, and the other camp. The degenerate, malebrained, puppies, who can't lift a finger due to their learned (malicious) helplessness, save for jumping to the defense of their lifestyle. But that's not how this is, you are just dragging an ex through the dirt. This is all on you. Grow the fuck up.

Reposting my comment from the original work, because nothing has changed enough to warrant a new comment:

this is pretty fucking vile, tara. the most charitable way I can see this article is that you endlessly enabled this person while keeping a mental tally of the things that you were actively enabling. and then you use this mental tally to write about how much you hate your ex, and manage to make it a hit piece about disabled girls in the process. i'm sorry you had to perform so much emotional labor, I know its hard and draining. but you never had to do any of this. you could have been principled, and stand up for yourself some, and set some boundaries. instead you just convinced yourself that this person is an evil man wearing the mask of a woman, and doing gendered violence on you.
