i don't believe in salvation

I’m surprised he didn’t go insane faster.

That shit breaks you in levels that cannot be understood by people who’ve never gone through it “oh well I went through COVID!” Try 10 years of no school, no friends, on and off internet, barely any books, and for a year one single radio.

And Higgs was alone with only his abuser for at least 16-17 years. The only human being he saw for almost 2 decades was the man who beat him almost every day.

I’m sorry but as someone who very nearly killed myself multiple times because of my isolation I not only understand Higgs. I feel genuine empathy for him beyond “that’s sad” I believe he deserves better.

Then he was forced onto the beach??? I’d kill myself way faster then he did.
