local woman doesnt choose career family or even freedom

i’ve seen so many stories where revenge is awesome and cool and the best thing you can possibly do. just once i would like to see a story in which revenge has two victims, the target and the pursuer. but i guess society has not yet come as far as i have in deconstructing destructive notions of honor and valor entwined with hate. maybe someday someone will write this. not me, though.

thanks for the recs everyone. can you point me in the direction of things that are about how family doesn’t have to be your blood relatives, but instead can be people you have chosen. what about some creative works that are about the power of creative works. or where the main character is a writer. or something set in new york city where it’s like the city itself is a character. is there anything that is secretly about trauma, bonus points if it’s the way trauma is passed down. these are all ideas i yearn to see represented but i’ve never seen before and i don’t know if they’ve ever been done.

I think people are uncomfortable by veganism because it asks them to actually give something up rather than just passively supporting an opinion. You can't just wait for petitions to sign, you actually have to change your lifestyle to be a supporter. for a lot of other causes, it's easy to convince yourself that you would help out should the opportunity arise, but if you aren't consciously perpetuating the issue or impacted yourself, you can easily just go about your life. but most people eat meat, so if you start to think about the animal agriculture industry too hard you can't keep doing it without a lot of cognitive dissonance. so if you just paint vegans as crazy people, you can just enjoy your hamburger in peace. problem solved!
