I'm seeing a lot of discussion about Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, but almost nothing on how much of the movie is dedicated to a r*pe scene. Like its not even in the trigger warning lists I'm seeing. Am I just reading the film differently than everyone else?

one of the nice things about being unemployed for the moment is that I have the bandwidth to do some of the small long term projects we kept putting off in the house. Little bathroom nook thing that was broken? fixed. The unusable chair? fixed. thinking hooks and bathroom shelves are next. we'll see

After Decades of Drought, Water Is Rising in the African Sahel
