fantastic. challenges the way people like me view the me too movement, and is extremely nuanced. asks for compassion in the best, deepest way it possibly could. at times uncomfortable. gripping and interesting, and so thought-provoking i could have listened to the whole thing in one sitting. a bit more lewd than i had expected, which made it a bit challenging in some parts for me personally.
