On today's episode I dive into three different topics.  We start the show with the sexualization and sexual assault on children on social media.  How the internet and social media makes us easy targets of predators because of the ease of access and META and other platforms inability or willingness to stop it.

Then we discuss JK Rowlings, the author of Harry Potter.  Because of her beliefs on transgenderism and her outspoken nature regardling it, she has faced a vicious backlash of hate and calls for harm against her because she doesn't believe the narrative that transwomen and transmen are now biologically the opposite sex.  So are we not allowed to have an opinion and is it justified to say someone hates us because they disagree with our beliefs or goes against a narrative.

Finally I talk about Body Dysmorphia something I suffer with and how we talk about ourselves and the projection we cast into the universe impacts our self perception.  So I talk about things I do to reverse this way of thinking.
