*reasonable restrictions are ones you consider fair for your own safety or wellbeing, especially for things like graphic depictions of violence in relation to your age at the time (i.e. "you can read this when you're older")
not sure if books you read were banned? here is a archive of the top 10 most banned/challenged books from 2001-2022, hosted by the American Library Association
as well as the Wikipedia page for the Most Commonly Challenged Books in the United States
Wikipedia page for Books Banned by the Government, organized by region/country
#my mom encouraged me to read banned books + owned a lot herself#(color purple to kill a mockingbird the outsiders animal farm of mice & men etc)#i had very few restrictions like reading too much or too graphic of horror because i would have frequent nightmares#the books weren't taken away from me & it was ultimately my choice

i will never understand why more people in their 80s don't commit felonies. you reach that age and surely there's something illegal you always wanted to do but didn't bc Consequences
dammit, GO FORTH GRANNIES!!! rob an armored car! hold up that bank! tunnel your way into fort knox! what are they gonna do, sentence you to 20 years? good fuckin luck with that
#mine would be a coordinated museum heist utilizing the lifetimes of experience and diverse expertise of my fellow nursing home residents#also there's Karl the orderly. his skill is he drives the shuttle van#technically he shouldn't be enabling us but he thinks it's a good enrichment activity#heck debra hasn't been this excited since her son flew in from australia.#plus Karl figures formulating an elaborate heist is better brain exercise than the puzzle books they keep in the resident lounge#all the sudokus are half finished anyway#update: upon consideration my second choice is just. MASSIVE credit card fraud.

i’m sick and tired of people calling jason a literature buff and then perceive him as only reading jane austen, because, yes he does canonically read austen avidly, but please let him read other books/authors that reflect him like; crime and punishment, metamorphosis, frankenstein, the art of war, the velveteen rabbit, the count of monte cristo, dante’s inferno, to kill a mockingbird etc— maybe i’m salty because i’m a book nerd and no one gets it right, but i want to see people take canon further and excel it rather than boiling down the one thing and beating it with a stick
#jason’s book choices also definitely subtly reflect himself#he’d also eat up hunger games and maze runner and pjo - he’s not strictly classics because even i can’t sustain myself on whatever the hell#dostoyevsky was yapping about in crime and punishment#this also goes for tim and coffee#let that boy get another drink#dc#jason todd#robin#red hood#classic literature#literature

Many gravity falls fans, circa 2016: OH MY GOD WHY DID MABEL HAND OVER THE RIFT. SHE'S SO DUMB, SHE'S THE WORST, WHY WOULD SHE EVEN DO THAT?! MABEL'S NOT A GOOD PERSON!
Alex Hirsch, circa 2024: **deep inhale**
SHE'S A CHILD OF IMPENDING DIVORCE AND IS GONNA HAVE TO GO BACK TO THAT
#People hated on mabel for YEARS because she (a child) made one irrational choice without us knowing why she did it. WELL YOU KNOW NOW.#ARE YOU HAPPY? SATISFIED? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?#Yes I am a Mabel apologist. 12 year olds are allowed to be dumb and irrational and make bad choices. Thats the whole point of middle school.#gravity falls#mabel pines#book of bill#book of bill spoilers#gf spoilers#bob spoilers#spoilers

Adult PJO fans: "I can't relate to her if she doesn't look like me" "this is disrespectful to book!Annabeth" "I can't see her as the same character if she's black" "blonde, white women are soooo underrepresented in media. No one else can understand 😫"
Meanwhile, the actual demographic the show and books are for:

Caveats in the tags.
#I'm doubling down since the leahbeth anti's lost their mind with my last post lmao#The existence of book!Annabeth and show!Annabeth are not mutually exclusive#Obviously I'm being hyperbolic but as an adult PJO fan it's crazy that the most hateful rhetoric comes almost exclusively from other adults#The show isnt for us. The books also aren't for us. u can be nostalgic but ur creating problems that arent problems for the target audience#They literally won a kids choice award#The show's not perfect but the kids like it and they love the cast#Weirdos#percy jackson#pjo series#percy jackon and the olympians#percy jackson fandom#pjo#leah sava jeffries#pjo tv show#annabeth chase#percy jackson and the olympians#mine

The Wayhaven Chronicles Book Four - Demo One
The Wayhaven Chronicles: Book Four
A change of career, a deepening romance, and barely any time off from training makes for a hectic time for your character!
It would be a shame if something else were added to that ever-growing pile…
But it seems the chance for a break is fast vanishing as something stirs beneath the ground of Wayhaven.
Something old.
Something powerful.
Something with a very keen interest in you.
Delve into Wayhaven once again, where a new powerful enemy is not only unleashed upon the town, but unleashes something wholly unexpected on you!
---------
Here it is! The first demo for Book Four!!!! I'm so excited to share this with you, I really hope you enjoy it as much as I loved creating it, and I hope it teases what is yet to come! Book Four really feels like something special! https://dashingdon.com/play/seraphinite/the-wayhaven-chronicles-book-four-demo/mygame/

are. are you telling me that if the romanced mage warden dies and alistair is king, he deadass stares greagoir down over her dead body and grants the circle of ferelden its autonomy after ordering it rebuilt somewhere safer. first you have to deliberately leave him behind so he won't die for you and then he does that for you once you're gone, even when you're broken up??? absolute and literal king behaviour of the highest order????? the actions speak louder than words of it all??????? I think I hauve covid
#that's the hottest thing I've ever heard I feel nuts#what an absolute chad alistair continues to be tbh there may be a day when men fail but it will not be when he's here#like I'm very sorry to the blond chantry boy repeat crowd but cullen could & would NEVER!!! they are NOT the same!!!!#dragon age#dragon age origins#alistair theirin#alistair x warden#can u imagine what it must be like to be irving standing there watching this happen. you're free and your kid is dead. congrats#tried to free her from the circle and she's the sacrificial lamb that bought the circle's freedom instead. fuck dude#it does make for a very sad kind of symmetry that every time irving tries to get clever with it he triggers a monkey's paw situation fhdskj#I am replaying the game with my new canon (mistress amell + king alistair to save him from the da:i fade choice lol)#and in doing research I found out about this and had my world rocked. I've never had my warden die before so this is new to me#(my warden isn't dying in this canon to be clear she's going to be the reason no one would dare assassinate king alistair lol#nightmare bae eminance gris behind the throne/loving and supportive partner with a fade connection and a vengeful side#she's going to be like sam vimes tiredly fending off assassins as the watch books go on except she murders a lot more people back)#the way his voice breaks in the version where they were broken up tho... sick and twisted and mean to me specifically
