I love you

We don't need to talk about how overall ewww this post is, but it made me think about something...

Can we take a moment to talk about the constant double standards antis demand?

It's either "Keep you disgusting sicko fantasies safely tucked away, you pred!!" but when we take our fics to Ao3, where everything can be beautifully labelled with appropriate tags so the incredible filter system can be put to work, it's: "What are you expecting?? It's your own fault when antis follow you since you have your perverted shit so well hidden away that people can't find it!!"

What is it now? Pick a struggle.

Something something almost as if it's not about avoiding possibly triggering content at all but much rather harassment being a game to play for you....

[drowninglessons24]

literally. it's why I tag ALL my fics dead dove do not eat.

of course, there's gonna be a dumb fuck who pokes their head in and goes "OH MY GOD THERE WAS A ROTTEN ANIMAL CARCASS IN THERE I COULDVE EATEN THAT!!!" my brother in christ you opened the bag that was clearly labeled.

its MY dead dove. IM gonna eat it. and some other people might bring their dead doves to munch on as well, or ask to have a piece of mine!

also the amount of people who think proship/DDDNE means pedo shit. like no bro i just like writing about kink, suicide, drugs, toxic ships, 18+ age gaps, CNC/dubcon because that is what comes naturally to me! I am a Gothic-brained person. I live in the literature. I breathe it. I eat it. I consume it. I make it. "But that means you like it irl and condone it!!!! WHAT ABOUT THE TRAUMA PEOPLE HAVE WAAAHHH"

I ALSO LIKE READING ABOUT MURDERS AND CANNIBALISM AND RELATIONSHIP ABUSE, THAT DOESNT MEAN I CONDONE IT IRL DUMB FUCK. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DISCLOSE MY TRAUMA TO BE PERMITTED THE FREE LICENSE TO ENJOY FICTION.

(not @ OP obviously but i felt like i should clarify).

[drowninglessons24]

ngl y'all, I've been severely procrastinating on writing chapter 50 of Smile For The Camera, Baby like helllllll

idk I guess I'm just afraid of ending it, even though I do plan on a sequel?

[drowninglessons24]

I would split my shit open so fast for this man.

[drowninglessons24]

i will mischaracterize a character. if it turns me on a little.

as a treat.

[drowninglessons24]

there is absolutely no love to be had for OC x canon character fics and im tired of it

[crimsonbubble]

backshots from dilf kennedy might fix me

refreshing my ao3 inbox like a crack addict circling the block waiting for their plug except instead of paying for the crack, it gets shoved directly down my throat

Hey,

To those who have been following me for my salvis fic, Smile For The Camera, Baby, I'm really sorry for not updating in such a long time. I'm usually a daily/semi-daily uploader but haven't done so in a month or more. It's not for the lack of wanting to! I very badly want to update it, but things just haven't been going to plan.

I wanted to commission an artist I love and admire dearly for the 50th and final chapter of the fic, but employment has been tenuous at best for me and--to make matters worse--I lost my phone in the most embarrassing way possible, so funding is largely going toward that now. I'm set to speak with someone tomorrow about a job but honestly I don't have high hopes. People in this community aren't very welcoming to outsiders, which makes employment exceedingly difficult to acquire and retain. If the job thing works out and I am able to get something steady (and paid!), I will have a life update by tomorrow at the earliest.

Thank you all for being so patient with me. I love you, and I can't wait to take Travis and Sal on more horny adventures in the future!

Best,

Alex / drowninglessons24
