@tortoiseshell62: Michael Angelakos, known as Passion Pit, posted videos to his blog in which he casually described smashing a computer, scaring his wife and dog, punching walls, throwing things at people, being accused of being a cult leader, and intentionally depriving people of sleep. This video looks at some of the reactions to those admissions and how easily violent or coercive behavior can get minimized or explained away. #AbuseAwareness #feminism #Accountability #narcissisticabuse #indie

It bothers me how people are sweeping it under the rug as “he just has anger issues” as if dating a partner with anger issues can’t still be traumatic or lead to abuse…

this truly breaks my heart as a girl who grew up on LBP2, but that should also be just as much reason to acknowledge he is a disgusting man. i dont understand how you can love passion pit’s music but condone this behavior, seems totally contradictory to me.

Sleep deprivation and cult leader jokes are actually serious, learned that the second one the hardway!

Oh my god I never knew this. I was listening to his lyrics recently and realized that a lot of them taught me to condone a lot of shitty behavior and I never even thought about it

i have bipolar 1 disorder with psychotic/schizophrenic symptoms/features. there have been times where i’ve had some pretty nasty arguments with my fiancé . never once did it even cross my mind to hurt him physically. i have never physically attacked anyone i love, whether that is friends, family, or romantic partners. mania makes you unstable, and yes, can make you into a different person. but it doesn’t turn you into an abuser overnight.

I need yall to fully understand that purposeful sleep deprivation does classify as torture. im not being funny, its one of the most common tactics of psychological torture. like he tortured a person, remember that
