this is a morality play about how the Internet is bad. the thesis of this is apparently

seeing disturbing content on facebook makes you into a rapist.

befuddling to say the least!

Me: I wanna read something uplifting 
Also me: reads this book at 3am 

A murky book that felt icky at times…but kind of profound, maybe? As someone whose work is centred around supporting people facing trauma and harm, it’s rare to see something representing how much that can affect our “fucked-up-ometer.” And also the camaraderie, trauma-bonding and dare I say, love, that you build with others doing that work. 

It’s not all obvious PTSD, it’s shame, fantasising about being a hero, an inability to relax and just be. Being bored whenever things are quiet, fun and safe. 

I’m lucky I’ve not had to do a job like this, for shitty pay like this. And with no mental health support. Seeing traumatic content, conspiracies and death day in, day out, has to do something to a person. 

On that note, as a domestic abuse professional, it’s also important to see narratives showing that anyone is capable of harm in a relationship. Especially when their own thresholds and boundaries have been distorted. 

Overall, it was a quick read but it’s left a mark.

It's a challenging book full of awful things happening on the Internet and the witness stress of those paid to review flagged posts and the hardships of that job, their coping.... Their fallout of beliefs from flat Earth to denying the Holocaust, the tiers of what most need taken down and what isn't is hard, the hopefully things they see, some described, is really hard to hear. Especially a young girl cutting her face before killing herself.. And how they take the cutting post down and find out about her suicide later because they can't stop thinking about the girl and remember her real name and investigate. Along in the story is the narrator trying to have a relationship with her girlfriend that goes through it's own hardships in parallel to the harshness of this job both women and their friends work at.


It's well written but full of so many trigger flags, most of not all of them.
