I’m paranoid about the possibility of being locked out of my house or car, and I know I’d probably be quite freaked out if I lost my keys or wallet.

When I was raped in college (before “date rape” was actually considered “real” rape), the first thing I did was run to the showers and try to remove all trace of the encounter. Having something like the app I envisioned would be more useful today, I think, since it’s slightly more likely that the rapist might be punished.

Thank you for your reply! I had forgotten about this post, but I see it’s still in my journal.
