I love Bat for Lashes. Her voice, the timbre of it, gives me goosebumps sometimes. I was named after a song called Laura, from a movie in the '40s. How are you doing, by the way? I haven't been very active on the sift as of late, but the few videos that incense me, you seem to say what I'm feeling for me. Thanks for that.

Thank you for the quality!!

Thanks for the quality!

I admit to being disappointed that a promote and a quality didn't get this even SIFTED. I love it.

Ah well. The vagaries of the Sift...

Thanks for liking it as much as me.... You have good taste!

*quality guts (and truly gut-wrenching; also mega trigger potential)

I am glad she did this, I just wish there wouldn't always have to be the "it's an act" reaction. It's understandable that, when faced with something so horrible, we wish it were not true. That being said, it's important to be aware that questioning a woman's (or man's) honesty in the case of sexual abuse can be extremely hurtful to the victim (and other victims of SA who are reading those remarks), who can feel like their trust is being abused once again. I was quite disgusted when looking up this story to find that all of the news outlets stressed the fact that "some commenters questioned the veracity of her claims", as if there is any validity to what some idiot redditors have to say.

As difficult as this must be, I think more people should do it. Everyone (or almost everyone) knows the horrifying statistics of sexual abuse, but they're just numbers. It's testimonies like this that bring the reality of it all home (and, hopefully, the ass-hole perps straight to prison).

Hello Janine, I'm curious as to where your avatar pic comes from; I like the style!

Thanks. I downvoted his troll ass comment, which I know is giving him a hard-on.

But I don't care. He is an asshat and I would ignore him, if it didn't screw up getting emails about comments.
