Im Talking About Australia, The Day That I Chopped My Finger Off

“i’m talking about australia, the day that i chopped my finger off”

johnny depp admits cutting his own finger. end of story.

tw: self harm

Amber Heard and her legal team played an audiotape of Johnny Depp expressing his desire to harm himself in the courtroom today, which caused Johnny to break down and cry on the stand. And while that’s sickening, here are some of the things I noticed from this:

Instead of helping him get the help he needed, she chose to record him when he was at his lowest point.

Her team did not ask a single question about the audiotape after they played it. They literally only made Johnny relive that moment of his life, left him crying on the stand knowing he legally cannot talk about it to anybody for 3 whole days.

The audiotape was about Johnny wanting to harm himself. Not her.

There was NO other reason for them to play that audiotape except their wanting to break him down, knowing they’ve screwed up. That’s a very low move even for AH. She’s still publicly abusing and gaslighting him. And you want me to believe she’s the victim????

Since today's hot topic is Johnny Depp's victory in the libel suit against his ex-wife; I want to say that this is a big day, especially for male victims and survivors of DV.

No, this is not a loss in the #MeToo movement. If anything, I'd say the #MeToo movement needs to be more inclusive to male victims of abuse.

It's time that we believe all victims and survivors.

I swear, someday I'm going to write a story in which every single character is named via illegible cursive that I find while filing.

Warner Bros. is really reaping what they’ve sowed.

First they fired Johnny Depp from Fantastic Beasts and replaced him. Only for it to bomb hard in the theaters.

They kept Amber Heard in Aqua Man 2, only for people to boycott. And we all know it’s gonna bomb too.

They fired Ray Fisher for speaking out against Joss Whedon and against the racist treatment. Now they’re stuck with Ezra Miller, who’s been arrested twice already for literally assaulting people. Now the Flash movie has been postponed and I doubt anyone has an urge to see it.

They’re gonna go down as a studio who punished and fired two victims, while supporting a literal abuser and a violent felon.

They’ve got no one to blame but themselves.

Recently a couple of the autistic kids I work with have inspired me with openly, unapologetically owning it.

Like one kid saying “if I don’t make eye contact it’s because I find that hard and it’s easier to concentrate on what you’re saying if I’m not looking at you.”

And another one asking for clarification of an ambiguous statement to check understanding instead of just hoping for the best.

And one saying “I’m going to stim now, this conversation is hard”

I have so much respect for them for being able to voice those things! It’s inspired me to try harder to do that instead of masking until I meltdown because I’m so scared of how people will react.
