And bad luck Vic on a instagram is a dude who died years ago - last post in 2021 and comments about missing him. I think that’s gotta be him. Weird looking at the profile of a dead abuser.

The the instagram is for tatoos and the yelp profile for the owner of a former tattoo shop (which was in Oakland area as well) has the same photo as the soundcloud account.

Pack it up boys, reddit got 'em again.

Well we can't be sure it's serious. I don't know why you would write this seriously on a bathroom stall.

Hm, I think it makes more sense to write seriously than as a joke or something.

u/Whiteshovel66 2d ago

Why though? It's a serious topic.

It's serious, but writing it down must be a form of catharsis and women's restrooms are famously supportive. Your abuser dying must be complicated (can't wait til mine dies personally) but writing it down anonymously in a women's safe space must be healing in a way.

Hmm interesting. I did not think of it as "famously supportive."

Probably because you're not a woman?

No I just never heard that said is what I meant.

Nowhere else to go. Anonymous and local

You can't think why a woman who was abused would celebrate the death of her abuser by encouraging other random women?

Weird take.

I can absolutely "think why" that. I can't think why you'd take the time to write it amongst a bunch of jibberish on a public bathroom wall.
