All right, so, a few things: One, massive possibly trigger warning. Talking about violence, murder, possibly rape, and just general uncomfortable situations. If you want to watch a documentary about a certain subject and the documentary triggers you, please don’t hesitate to let me know, and I’ll try to find you a better one. Two, if what you’re looking for isn’t here or you have a request for a certain subject, let me know and I shall do my best to find them for you. :)
