hot take: if you're not developed enough to know that there's a difference between having a crush on an unrealistic-looking cartoon character that's younger than you and being an actual pedophile, you shouldn't be on the internet
he was onto something
antis will always say something like "profic isn't good for your mental health! this isn't a healthy coping mechanism!" and yet not a single therapist would ever recommend that people bottle up their thoughts, feelings & urges. people NEED an outlet, especially for trauma survivors. in terms of outlets, what would you rather have? seeking comfort in fiction where nobody gets hurt, or seeking comfort in acting on real life people and changing the trajectory of their lives? if you say "neither," then im afraid you're missing the point. you can't heal trauma by ignoring it, that makes it worse. also hating profic because you pretend to care about someone's mental health is such a bad excuse. people cope differently and that's OK! how does it affect you? their trauma isn't yours, and even if you experienced similar trauma, you have no right to shame others for how they choose to cope. it's not your place! you're not making the internet a safer space by dictating how people should / shouldn't cope, you're just being an ass!
me writing rhis with a jimmy pfp😭😭😭😭
reblog if u like cats or you hate men that are stuck in the 1900s. men that will laugh at a woman for expressing the fact she's scared of men because she was sexually assaulted. men that hear women dont like them and further justify their fears by harassing them. men that say theyre looking for attention when talking about their experience. men that call sa survivors dramatic and attention seeking for not staying silent. lets not forget men that call women dramatic for fearing for their life, for their rights, and the prospect of having a forced pregnancy that may or may not kill them because of men. i fucking hate them. and i also like cats.
anyway hell yeah 4B movement
The “That’s immoral you shouldn’t write that, we need to get that taken down” discourse on tiktok right now is PISSING ME OFFF
Wdym you want censorship for a literal ARCHIVE are you fucking stupid
Ao3 was literally founded to preserve works that were largely getting taken down due to censorship
Censorship is the opposite of what Archive of Our Own stands for
The TAGS and WARNINGS are there for a REASON. Use them and stop complaining
The universal rule—don’t like, don’t read
It’s THAT simple
me trying to read the low-contrast DNI written in a curly aesthetic font on a low quality jpg underneath a gifset from a stim account to make sure i can interact
shirt that says "i'm not high i just love saying insane sentences that don't make sense"
Honestly I think this has been a sign that we no longer need to try and tolerate or ignore purity culture, but that shit needs a hard stop now. I fully blame it as being one of the causes for the intense growing black and white thinking in a lot of youth or young adult spaces that prevents meaningful change or to take actions that help even if they aren’t perfectly pure
this has reduced me to tears
