I'm turning the channel to creators who are queer, feminist, Black, trans, Indigenous, radical, survivor-centered, trauma-attuned, decolonized, anarchist, deconstructing, anti-racist, compassionate.

Life is too short to support abusers or ingest their content.

I'm unsubscribing from the culture of celebrating tortured male "geniuses" who are really just torturers.

I don't want music about stalking behavior that's marketed as sweet and loving.

There is SO MUCH fantastic media that doesn't center abuse or feature abusers.

So no, I don't need to read another page of David Foster Wallace or see Johnny Depp in a high-end perfume ad.

I don't want to watch TV shows that normalize abuse and call it romance. I don't want to read stories where survivors of abuse are gaslit into staying in unsafe relationships and doing tons of extra emotional labor to beg their partners to treat them like humans.
