there are two equally brainrotted yet diametrically opposed takes i’ve seen to many times. one is “why would anyone write an allegory for racism/ableism/oppression/sexism/homophobia when they could write about the real thing.” the other is “why would anyone want to portray, for entertainment, the harsh realities that real people actually suffer.” and the answer to both of these things is “you are too stupid to live.”

This has been a PSA.

The humble and beautiful PDF does not deserve to now have the term “PDF file” be a censored version of the word pedophile. She has been nothing but good to us. You all apologize right now

Another storytelling rule I think people should remember is the law of diminishing returns. If you keep on ramping up the stakes higher and higher and higher, after a point it gets to where the audience can’t really care anymore.

Fandom Problem #7488:

Nothing annoys me more than being recommended a show, game, book, etc, because some of the characters represent a minority but never getting any further explanation about what actually makes it any good.

Great that the show has an ND, black, lesbian, trans woman who sits in a wheelchair. I will certainly feel represented by them to some degree. Now do please tell me the plot!

Responding to the comment that says porn addiction is real. All the studies I've read seem to acknowledge it as being "real", but also put it on the same lines as "internet addiction" and "gambling addiction" where the addiction itself isn't actually to the internet, or gambling, but the dopamine and other responses that fill a psychological need. In other words the addiction, whether it's porn or gambling, is just a secondary symptom of an underlying dysfunction. But it's not really caused by the porn, similar to the weed thing. Personally I'm of the mindset that labelling something as "porn addiction" or "gambling addiction" is disingenuous and downplays what is really going on, even if that is the visible outcome.

Posting as a response to a previous ask.

seeing straight men be disgusted by booktok smut recommenders has actually radicalized me to the side of booktok smut recommenders. girls your taste may be atrocious but i will never disparage you for exposing mainstream discourse to the concept of soaking through your underwear. spent my whole life listening to men talk about penises it’s about time they get jumpscared by women talking about pussy in crude detail on social media. go forth and goon my warriors
