This!!! ie a target of intentional ongoing and escalating abuse. Abuse occurs in all manner of relationships but the tactics of abusers remain the same. She had a safety plan and a go bag ready just in case. Case came. Go. Victims statistically at greatest risk Immediately post-separation.
Should I Stay Or Should I Go? is a guide by Lundy Bancroft and J. A. C. Patrissi that helps readers evaluate troubled relationships to decide if they are worth saving.

And the game finally and perfectly and horrifically and beautifully rended my soul with this. She was speaking to Harry and also directly to me. I needed to hear her say that. I knew instantly my response was #2, but it took me what felt like an eternity to own it, and admit it, and try.
Spoilers for end of Disco Elysium. When ending your (Harry's) conversation with the insulindian phasmid, she says, "Thank you. I also have one more thing to say to you: that woman -- turn from the ruin. Turn and go forward. Do it for the working class. Your options for responding are: 1. I can't. 2. I will try. 3. I will. 4. What woman? I personally chose number 2.

You are absolutely right. For anyone struggling with these issues IRL, here's a good place to start. There are many other resources out there, but my patients have frequently cited this as helping with that initial motivational force for personal positive change.

Hell, 12% of adults reported they were licensed to operate a nuclear powered guided missile submarine.
www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...
Studies have shown that bogus respondents can cause opt-in surveys to overestimate rare attitudes and behaviors, such as ingesting bleach to protect against COVID-19, belief in conspiracies like Pizzagate or support for political violence. At Pew Research Center, we’ve found that this type of overreporting tends to be especially concentrated in estimates for adults under 30, as well as Hispanic adults. Bogus respondents may be identifying this way in order to bypass screening questions that might otherwise prevent them from receiving a reward, though the precise reasons are difficult to pin down. Whatever the underlying cause, the result can be unreliable estimates for those groups. For example, in a February 2022 survey experiment, we asked opt-in respondents if they were licensed to operate a class SSGN (nuclear) submarine. In the opt-in survey, 12% of adults under 30 claimed this qualification, significantly higher than the share among older respondents. In reality, the share of Americans with this type of submarine license rounds to 0%.

Nontraditional but horror nonetheless:
Scene from Deliverance (1972). At a local gas station, Drew, with his guitar, engages a young banjo-playing boy in a musical duel. The duel is mutually enjoyable, and some of the locals break into dance at the sound of it. However, the boy does not acknowledge Drew when prompted for a friendly handshake

This artist is clearly invoking the styles of famed Manga artists Hirohiko Araki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) and Kentaro Miura (Berserk). Luigi is a combo of main chad protagonists/"Dark heroes" Jotoro and Guts. This is the greatest compliment imaginable.
Courtroom sketch of Luigi Mangione clearly drawing inspiration from 2 of manga's most badass "dark heros." Jotaro from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Guts from Berserk.

Well, half of his (Ensign's) litigation team, including his supervisor, were just fired. And they also likely know who gave the order. Could change the calculus.
Mr Ensign tells the court who else was on the phone call.

Wurman approaches the stage to open his (long form) presentation regarding his newly published body of literature. He asks the crowd to first chose a color....and explains this all depends on how wise the the color choice is. (Josh Blackmon accuses Amy Coney Barrett of silently siding with Purple)
