Introduction Growing up, the phrase, "garbage in, garbage out," was thrown around everywhere I went, but I never understood it until I heard the song by Tal & Acacia, Garbage In. You've probably never heard of these two women but I heard their music all the time growing up. They're one of the few artists, in my opinion, that have a unique and a[...]
Trigger warning for mentions of sexual abuse beginning in the 'End of an Era' section. The End of an Era I have some major news that will change the face of the trauma survivor community. Hopefully, it will allow any of you who have experienced trauma to stay in the moment for a little bit, knowing that you are believed. The False Memory Synd[...]
