when reading a book, do you read the prologue/epilogue?

yes

prologue only

epilogue only

no

nuance (comments/tags)

Looking at the tags, a lot of people are blessedly unaware of the Discourse, for posterity:

[orcboxer]

do they think... that prologues and epilogues... which take place within the story and are very much inside of the same book as the rest of the pages... don't count as part of the book....???.....

Bronze age ship discovered

look inside

made of wood

[sophia-epistemia]

it's made of wood because all the bronze was used to make the age, not the ships. obviously

I am begging you. Please learn about stress/discomfort tolerance. Practice raising it. You need this to survive. If someone online can ruin your day with a throwaway comment, you desperately need to understand discomfort tolerance and consciously, systematically build that shit.

Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks!

Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you.

No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset.

It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate. That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast.

Letting your discomfort dictate your actions and beliefs about things is a great way to become a terrible person. Learn. Discomfort. Tolerance.

[enbeees]

This is seriously so true, and something I feel should also be expanded is:

Discomfort is not equivalent to harm.

I swear, so many people will act like they understand this concept, but excuse their own harmful behavior with "what they do is harming people, they deserve harassment!!!" Because it made them uncomfortable.

Your triggers are yours to manage, no one else's. The people who do that love to tell other people to get therapy, but it only makes it clear that they themselves are not in therapy because (aside from viewing therapy as a punishment rather than help) they believe a therapist would support their decision to use their discomfort to cause harm. If you speak to a therapist, they are not going to tell you to attack anyone who makes you uncomfortable and/or triggers you unintentionally. They are going to help teach you coping mechanisms so if you do get triggered by something, you're able to deescalate the situation and control your reaction instead of trying to control others.

Now if someone is specifically going out of their way to make people uncomfortable as a form of harassment, (or being bigoted ofc) that is causing harm. But if someone say, runs a blog about spiders, and you have arachnophobia, they are not causing harm. They're enjoying something that you do not, and it is your job to manage your own discomfort, not attack them for appreciating spiders, or demand their blog be shut down because it's inherently harmful.

Yeahhh no, the fgo ending is not good

Which first of all people are acting like the game as a whole is over when that was never stated lmao

But also people are going to bat for it so hard, insisting its just that the NA player base sucks, that people dont understand the point, and like

Cool if you enjoy it, but for a game that has been going on for 10 years, it's just disappointing. It would work better for a proper visual novel or another game, just not for one people have been playing for 10 gd years.

"people are allowed to be grossed out"

ok. keep it to yourself. it's the polite thing to do. if i'm not enjoying food someone made, that i get to eat for free, i'm not gonna shit all over their cooking and personal tastes

this is a post about proshipping

[starqueensterlexa]

If you have ever known anyone with a kink for being hit, or beat up, or raped and you're okay with them, you also gotta be okay with the people who's kink it is to do the hitting, the beating, or the raping. At the end of the day, we're adults playing pretend, and that's it.

[starqueensterlexa]

With every single sub i have the first thing we ever do is establish the safe word (stoplight system), and the non-verbal safe word in case they can't talk for any reason. If I can't tell where the sub is at, I will ask them point blank what is their color, and if they can't give a response, we stop. The goal is to make the other person feel good, including pain, and the most important part us knowing your subs limits and LISTENING to them. I will *never* hurt a sub in a way that they have not explicitly expresssed interest in.

[steve-likes-robots]

Makes sense to me. The “getting hit” kink requires a “hitting” kink. It’s like Transformers. Megatron can’t exist without Optimus Prime.

[starqueensterlexa]

yes Steve, its exactly like Megatron and Optimus Prime from Transformers

"If you're ok with a friend that has self destructive tendencies and uses sex as self harm, you should also be okay with the man enacting gendered violence on her."

@bibleofficial love you but im breaking mutuals over this post...

[bibleofficial]

rip another beloved mutual 💐🪦 in my defence, i love abusing men &, having ‘high self esteem’ (haters say it’s ‘grandiose sense of self’), i cannot advocate for men to not ‘want’ to be abused 💔 like how i’m in favour of the repealing of anti-drunk driving laws - i can’t, in good conscious, support the criminalization of one of my most cherished pastimes 😭😭

[cpagliahater]

I get what you mean and I love women abusing men... but we can't ignore the reality of daddy doms and men abusing women. And in no world would I be okay with a man who gets turned on by hitting a woman...

[starqueensterlexa]

I can't believe I have to say this, but STRAIGHT KINKSTERS ARE NOT BAD PEOPLE FOR LIKING KINK

Pain is morally nuetral, while a lot of pain is caused because sometimes "wrong" has happened, there exists the opposite, where the pain is desired. Kink is one of them, yes, but so are things like muscle aches from intense work outs, emptional pain from consuming intense media, or even having a hard but important conversation with a partner.

It is counterintuitive to the goal of sexual liberation to inharently hate all cishet kinksters. You do not get to tell a woman "hey actually, you're not allowed to enjoy kink, sorry it's cause you're in a straight relationship, it's just too problematic" That is not actually protecting her or giving her freedom of choice, that is simply putting a different set of restrictive standards of ehat women are and arent allowed to do or enjoy onto her.

The same goes for men, too. There is a reason the original post made no mention of genders or pronouns. Because anyone, of any gender, can enjoy and participate in any and every kink role and dynamic, and none of those combinations are inharently more problematic, that comes down to a case-by-case basis of how the dynamic works. Remember, the person on the recievung end of any kink is in just as much control, but we play pretend that we're not because that's the fun.
