not in the workplace
i feel like a party pooper bc i’m at the salon, they was watching something called trapping anonymous on youtube . the woman they had on there to interview was 31, and when she was 12 she was raped by her cousin and his friend and ended up pregnant, didn’t find out until 7 months in that she was having a baby so couldn’t abort . heavy intense traumatic topic-and i in no way want to say that it shouldn’t be spoken about or have other ppl’s eyes on it .
but we are at a salon ……..
at some point when the next video started, which was about an intersex person who grew up as a boy but was raped n about to have a baby, i was trying so hard to tune it out but it was difficult, still sad heavy traumatic topics being spoken about . my hair stylist asked me a question and i must have come off dejected or uninterested bc then they asked if i was uncomfortable and i said yes, have been uncomfortable since the previous video lol ..so they changed it to something else, but i just felt like i was doing too much-they both seemed very invested in the stories even though they were sad and intense . just a weird experience and i feel very drained . but i’m hoping my hair comes out cute i guess lmao ..
it sucks that media is so heavy nowadays but sometimes the truth does need to come out for sure . again, i just don’t think the hair salon is the place for it ?? i would have rather talked about our lives than watch someone retell their nightmare . it reminded me of why i wanna stop watching this youtube drama slop stuff fr-same energy !! i gotta stop, maybe i had to see other ppl watching stuff like that for me to really see what it must be like when my friends see me watching a vid on creeps n pedos 😭 wanna stop typing now, sorry for anything triggering v.v
