"an abuser could sabotage contraception, could intercept birth control, could otherwise just hinder a person's ability to control their own — have control over their own body."

Miami’s top cop tried to commit suicide. Mental health remains an issue for first responders :
The biggest threat to law enforcement officers --and often, their families-- is not any armed criminal. It is themselves.

LovingMe is the only trans/nb- exclusive domestic abuse service in England. They just bought a refuge, and are fundraising to furnish it.
Also, if you are 18+ and need their help, see the link in their bio: #trans #DomesticAbuse
And meanwhile, this is why #MeToo has not proved to be the line in the sand that many of us hoped it would be. Speaking out feels more dangerous now, to many of us, than it did before, because we all saw what happened to Amber Heard.
I mean, you don't see me trying to prosecute or going public about what I went through. And will wealthy, famous men have more resources, ordinary perpetrators pull the same tricks as Depp. #DomesticAbuse

Last year around 10,000 #women seeking to escape #domesticabuse were turned away from alternative housing (inc. refuges);
given what we know about how domestic abuse can be the first sign of women becoming victims of fatal violence, we are (once again) failing women who find themselves in the proximity of #toxicmasculinity & gender based violence.
yet one more area where #austerity is exposing the vulnerable to fatal consequences!
#women #DomesticAbuse #toxicmasculinity #austerity
This is a textbook case of #domesticAbuse. You have the initial terrified call by the #victim that's abruptly disconnected. Next, a second call by the victim who attempts to walk back his first call. On that second call, the mother grabs the phone from the reporting child, and attempts to clean up the situation, using mitigating language, and excuses for her husband. Anyone who has been involved in #domesticViolence recognizes what's going on here.

If you have an Android phone and don't want to be interrupted on Sunday afternoon, turn off the Emergency Test as follows:
Settings: Notifications: Advanced settings: Wireless Emegency Alerts: OFF!
#emergency #alerts #emergencyalert #DomesticAbuse
Soul shatteringly terrible! Especially when you realise that the group most likely to be affected by this is... Yep... #Disabled people. 💔
"A further 3,000 were denied places because the shelter “could not meet the needs of the household”, with figures suggesting this was often due to mental health issues, drug and alcohol use or disability."

#FionaBruce minimising #DomesticAbuse on #BBCQT & giving only the 'context' that #StanleyJohnson said breaking his wife's nose was a one off incident....
No mention that his wife Charlotte said he beat her many times over many years - effectively silencing a victim of domestic violence.
Why has #Refuge not sacked Bruce?
Obviously the #BBC won't - despite censoring #GaryLineker for telling the truth about the #ToryFascistDictatorship using 1930's #Germany's political tactics & rhetoric.

I raised lack of trust in police; lack of consistency + lack of accountability when I spoke at @CommonsHomeAffs on Policing Priorities Inquiry today

"The apparent victim of domestic abuse appears to be tucking away her abuser into a real-life freezer positioned in front of the mural. Drawings of his legs poke out of the other side.
Thanet council workers hauled away the large, white chest freezer that was central to the artwork"
