He presumably went on living the privileged life to which he was entitled. She repressed the memory and fled the city with her secret scars as soon as she could, never to return. @MeTooMVMT @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTX_NOW @NotOnMyCampusUT @timesupnow #rapemustend
She was able to avoid being alone with him after that, but was too broken and ashamed to tell anyone. @Adoption_Austin @MeTooMVMT @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTXNOW @NotOnMyCampusUT @acltv #rapemustend #rape #metoo #timesup
Afterward he told her that it had been his intention to impregnate her so that she would love him. @Adoption_Austin @MeTooMVMT @statesman @AustinLinked @FeministAction @AustinTXNOW @NotOnMyCampusUT #dna #rapemustend #rape #metoo #timesup

Today is the 10th anniversary of the day that I became housebound with severe #ME. To mark the occasion here’s a thread:

10 years ago I came home from work unbelievably overwhelmingly exhausted. #mecfs #MillionsMissing #MyalgicE #meawarenesshour
2/ I thought 2 weeks off would fix it. It didn’t. After 6 weeks I was desperate to go back to work.
I held a fellowship in bio-nano-technology at a Scottish University. I tried a phased return starting with 1 hour per day. Twice. Each time I crashed and became more unwell.
3/ Since then I have been 95% housebound- it is rare for me to leave the house for more than 1 hour per week, and common not to leave the house at all for 3-4 weeks.
Still, I’m lucky – I’m not bed bound, like so many.
