#and judging by the popularity of these jokes I'm sure I'm not the only one

[llycaons]

complaining about something dumb. suicide tw

it's not that I think suicide jokes are appropriate to make with strangers or with people who are sensitive to them (obviously) and the reminder to tone them down in the tags is a good one but the little 'uwu they're never okay to make ironically...you'll feel better' is so gd aggravating to me. like I'm sorry but you're a stranger and I'm a grown adult you don't get to finger-wag about the jokes I make about MYSELF. how do YOU know I'll feel better? you don't know me or the relationship I have to this topic! 'I promise' but you don't KNOW 😭 what if I like suicide jokes and they make me happy. what then. what if joking about fictional characters killing themselves is fun for me. truly who is it hurting as long as I'm being respectful of others

personally its like. swearing. the catharsis is so valuable to ME I have to check myself constantly out of respect for other ppl and I know for a fact if I made as many jokes as I wanted to THAT'S what would make me feel better but if I never do idk I'd feel smothered since it's such an extreme thing to say something it's all that I can say to express myself. yeah as someone who's not suicidal ik I'm not the target audience for this but its such a pet peeve let me ventttt. 'I promise' oh my god shut up
