    Sigh.

    I switch off as Julius my husband of three years prattles on about some cocktail with the boss and something, something, something. He just got the information today, he knows I’ll never go out looking […]

    RIO commented on the post, Oyedepo’s Slap, a game of What? 1 year ago

    I grow more weary of organized religion by the day. I am beginning to really get “opium of the masses” .The man of God was wrong. God does not need us to fight his battles or defend him. The people that attend […]

    RIO commented on the post, All Men are not Born Equal 1 year ago

    RIO commented on the post, Veronica’s Pieces 1 year ago

    @shaifamily, Sex was created by God to be pleasurable. One of the reasons sexual abuse is so dangerous is that underneath all else, a person might just enjoy the sex. That can be an emotionally crippling […]

    RIO commented on the post, Veronica’s Pieces 1 year ago

    The best therapy for a survivor is “I was just a child, I didn’t do anything wrong”. It never wipes off but it helps. My movie (Distance Between) is also about abuse. It is about the two opposite end effects of […]

    RIO commented on the post, Veronica’s Pieces 1 year ago

    Thank you @sibbylwhyte. The first cardinal rule of screen writing is “show don’t tell”. If a deaf man can watch without subtitles and still get the story, a screen writer has outdone themselves.
