I’m in so much pain right now. I’m talking but no one’s listening. No one hears me. No one really hears me. I’m so sad. So so sad. I can’t describe it. It starts out small- not going to class, missing work. Then it continues, not being able to get up in the morning, shower, or even brush my teeth. Not taking care of myself physically because mentally and emotionally I’m losing myself. Then, it goes darker and darker. So dark that I can’t see or feel my way through. There’s no light where I’m at. Depression’s funny. It always starts out small, then manifests into something much bigger than me. So much for “small.”
Look, I dont know a lot about saints and Catholicism, but I know St. Agatha is always depicted with her breasts on a plate, and that’s sure something
Just a few more. This is a big trend.
Things I learned from the comments
She’s a patron saint of rape and abuse victims
She took a vow a chastity
A low born guy demanded her to be with him and she turned him down
For this she was imprisoned and tortured. This is how she lost her breasts (details not required)
She was repeatedly raped.
The Catholic Church regards her as a virgin for her peity despite the rape. (No matter your views on virginity this is a pretty interesting statement)
She was sentenced to death to burn at the stake but was saved by an earthquake
In her holiday people make titty cupcakes
I didn’t know she existed and now I think she’s a pretty rad woman. I would hesitate calling her a protofeminist as some often do with amazing women in history but she is pretty cool. Also she’s still very relevant today as women are still treated the way she was.
other things i learned: damn historic artists drew a woman with her own tits on a plate with Cleavage and prominent nip nops???
