#i think i got desensitized back in the kinkmeme days

[kradogsrats]

tbh my shipping experience is one of three things happens:

"oh, I don't read X (niche and/or problematic thing)" and then proceed to read a shit-ton of X for inexplicable reasons and/or out of boredom

"wouldn't it be funny/devastating if X (crackship/rarepair)?" and then three hours later I'm genuinely 1500% invested

someone makes up a crackship as a joke, I see a reference to it three years later and am disappointed that the content doesn't actually exist
