For decades, I was my family’s whipping boy, caretaker, therapist, and problem solver. I know stories that could get people jailed for life, lose them their careers, and ruin their reputation. All in a little 2,000 person community, that I don’t think much of either.
My heart’s getting weak from all the bullshit.that’s happened to me over the years, and I would love for some tea to be spilled the birthday after my death. I know where all the community bodies are buried – thanks to sad people wanting to spill everything they know to quiet people.
Should I do it? How would you go about it, seeing as Facebook doesn’t have scheduled posts for individual accounts?
Stories include: rape, sexual assault, intense bullying, racism, homophobia, potential unsolved police cases, I could go on. All tea spilled to me by other people.
They’re mine too. I served as unofficial counselor to numerous people in the community. Everybody come in, bitching about their problems and who did what in their families.
I just sat there and listened.
