I DON'T BLOG HERE ANYMORE @freakingdork-oldblog - Tumblr Blog

I was just wondering if you could tell me what the boobs incident in the criminal minds fandom was? (please bear in mind that I am asking after reading meta stuff where it was mentioned, and this meta was written about a year ago) Thank you in advance

once upon a time, when lauren first aired (and i was a tiny naive fan omg), there were posts that were not entirely cognizant of the fact that ian ripping prentiss' shirt open to brand her was, in fact, sexual assault. it was quickly pointed out and some ppl were very apologetic and hey, we all make mistakes, but some decided that instead of being respectful of sexual assault/abuse survivors, that they would instead make posts mocking said survivors. because ppl are assholes.

imagine for me, if you're comfortable, a 9 pic set...kinda like a "9 favorite outfits" or "9 favorite scenes" meme sets that are still really popular...but instead imagine something to the tune of "9 favorite times we saw prentiss' boobs", featuring, of fucking course, 9 gifs of ian ripping her shirt open....because that literally happened. that was not the only one, but it was the one that really burned into my brain.

basically there was like...a week or two where a handful of gif/graphic makers made similar sets with the sole intention of pissing off and/or hurting the ppl who said "hey guys, this is sexual assault."

to this day, ppl include that scene in a lot of graphics/gifs in ways that are really not great or appropriate and ppl reblog them untagged and so, as i said in the post you're referencing, while i am extremely uncomfortable at how sexualized JJ's torture was, i am glad that most of that sexualization did not lend itself to being disrespected by her supposed fans.

#anonymous #laura answers #JSYK I MOVED BLOGS #but this question needed answering lol #btw these are ppl who are still around #who still make graphics #and this is just one reason of many as to why i won't reblog their graphics #and rarely reblog their meta

Final notice - I've moved blogs

shortly after this posts (9/29/14, 5p), i will be deleting all the other notices that i've moved.

if you want my new url, please send an ask to this blog. it's still connected to an email address that i check frequently (every day, multiple times a day), so i will see it and get back to you that way. i promise i won't bite and i understand if it took you days, weeks, months to be like "wtf happened to that laura girl" and went directly to my tumblr to check. it's just a lot easier to get asks to respond to than to have to keep checking that post for new likes.

thanks!

I hit words at random on iOS 8’s new predictive text feature so I could see what type of sentence my phone thinks I’m likely to say, and

I don’t normally do this and I can’t believe that I’m having to resort to it however the situation at home has gotten worse and I really need your help. For various reasons (that I can’t get into right now) my parent are threatening to kick me out of the house by the end of the house by the end of the week. I really have nowhere to stay and no money in my bank right now. I’d really appreciate if you could donate here (using the pay pal button) or signal boost this post if you can’t. I never thought I’d find myself in a situation like this but I’m extremely vulnerable with suicidal tendencies and I have no where to turn expect to you guys. Once the situation gets better or changes I will take down the donation button and this post.

WARNING FOR THOSE WITH OR RECOVERING FROM EATING DISORDERS, ESPECIALLY ONES WITH OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE HABITS, WHO ARE THINKING OF DOWNLOADING THE IOS 8 UPDATE. PLEASE REBLOG.

The new IOS8 update contains an app named Health which CANNOT BE DELETED.

The app allows you to choose which aspects of your health you choose to monitor, but available categories include “Body Measurements”, which includes body weight, and “Fitness”, which contains sections for calories consumed and calories burned.

While this may be useful for those looking to monitor their fitness, it could be triggering and harmful to those suffering with or in recovery from eating disorders, especially in sufferers with obsessive compulsive tendencies they find it very hard to abstain from, such as calorie counting, body measuring and weighing.

Whilst of course the app cannot force you to use it, it cannot be deleted, so will be present within your apps and can be a source of feelings of temptation to record numbers and of guilt and judgement for not using the app.

If you personally feel you could not emotionally handle the presence of this app, and it would be detrimental to your recovery, please do not download IOS8. I do not know if a new IOS can be avoided permanently (if anyone has any information on this please do add it to the post), but if it cannot then please use the time you have to prepare yourself for the app, and to reinforce reminders that you do not have to calorie count, you do not have to weigh yourself, you do not owe proof of exercise to anyone, person or app.
