I like when princess play is just age regression without the age regression.

this 25 year old woman with a job (princess) has been given the task of being this big 🤏 and not being in charge of any of the choices made in her life. she likes juice and sparkly things. she can make demands of people but if you ignore her she will just huff and stomp her foot.

I absolutely support victims of parental abuse speaking out, and we absolutely deserve need to talk a lot about parental abuse. But I would like to remind people that sibling abuse often ties into parental abuse. Sibling abuse barely ever gets spoken about as it is already, and it can absolutely happen on its own without the parents knowing. But most of the time, the parents know, and they let it happen. Whether it be because they themselves are just as abusive and think the siblings' actions are correct, because they're too weak to properly reprimand/get help for the sibling, the parents favour one child over the others, or they too are genuinely scared of their own kid.

Obviously, no parent wants their child to be a bad person who causes harm, and being faced with the reality one of your kids has abused the other is absolutely a harrowing ams difficult experience. But it's your duty as the parent to stop that behaviour. Weather that be by separating the siblings, getting mental health services involved, gods forbid but law enforcement involved, having one sibling stay at another family member/friends house, etc. Whatever the methord that works for you, it is your DUTY as a parent to step in when one of your kids is abusing the other. If you don't, you are complacent and letting the abuse continue.

Sibling abuse is barely talked about, but it's devastatingly real, and more often than not, the parents are involved directly or know of it and don't do anything about it.

This has been a PSA from a victim who was abused by their mother AND sister.

This is very true.

Sibling abuse is serious and it is a parent’s responsibility to prevent and address it.

I know this is an old post but I wanted to add my story to this. A week ago today, my older sister who has been verbally and emotionally abusing my entire family for years, attacked both me and my mom. I am 18 and she is 21, but I am bigger and stronger than her, so when she has hit me into the past, it hasn't been a big deal in my family because she can't do much damage to me. I mean, it's been a big deal for me mentally because it's always traumatic, but it gets brushed off a lot because my parents have bigger problems and I've been treated as an adult for years.

However, last week she took it too far and she bit my arm very hard. The bruise has not healed yet and I am afraid that she did permanent damage to my muscle. Also, the reason I even intervened even though she and I weren't arguing, she was screaming at my mom, was because I head my mom yell "don't grab me". I was in my room sleeping (it was 7 in the morning and it's summer break) when I heard this and I don't know the extent to which my sister hurt my mom, but I ran out and put myself between them. Then my sister hit my chin and bit my arm.

This last week, I've been dealing with the aftermath of this all alone. My sister decided that we are the abusers, and that she was moving out, so for two nights after the incident, she stayed at her friend's house. Then, my parents let her come back into our house knowing that she was mentally unstable and dangerous, so I left and stayed with a friend. The past week has been on and off sleeping arrangements because my parents are continuing to let her stay in our home and I can't look at her face without remembering the crazed look she has before she attacked me. I've been have flashbacks on the incident and nightmares about my sister since, all of which my parents don't know about because they haven't asked. They haven't checked up on me since the incident.

My parents are not abusive, but I do think they fall into the "too weak to properly deal with abusive behavior" category that was mentioned in the original post. This past week, when they tell me that my sister is sleeping at home, I've mentioned a few times that I don't feel safe with her around, but it is never given any importance. I even mustered up enough balls to tell them that I feel like collateral damage because they are prioritizing her comfort over mine.

I love my parents. When it is just the three of us, we are a near perfect family. I talk to them about nearly everything, and we have family dinner every weekend. But I've always felt like they are more like my friends and not my parents, because they have never protected me from her. I don't entirely blame them because she is almost impossible to help, they've tried to get her medicated or in therapy consistently but she never complies. I don't think they are capable of protecting me like how I want so I think it's unfair to be too harsh in them in this situation.

This is a horribly long rant so I apologize but I just needed to get this off of my chest. This isn't even the full story unfortunately.

the other night I dreamt that ao3 got a new number go up button titled "jorked it"

[katakaluptastrophy]

I went—not overseas, but by public transport—to Corpus to hear Tamsyn Muir speak.

The bad news: Alecto is not finished. It will hopefully come out "soon" and will likely be fast tracked with few ARCs when it's finished.

The news you may take differently depending on your preferences: It is not being split.

The good news: It is not all written in Ye Olde Alecto speak (it sounds like Harrow's POV will be fairly major, but there will apparently be several narrators).

A slightly random selection of things I frantically scribbled down:

The protagonists of TLT would make an "absolutely shit" D&D party ("Palamedes and Camilla would be fine")

We could have had horse plinko and begone thot, but for the anti-meme ministrations of her editor. She would love an edition that puts all of the memes back in.

On Catholic imagery and lesbianism: "you ain't seen nothing yet"

"Harrow is now a believer without a church"

She said that while John and Alecto's relationship is not meant to be a 1:1 analogue to Humbert Humbert and Lolita, there is the idea of a man fashioning (something he thinks is) a girl into a perfect partner (the question of whether that is a sexual partner apparently may be relevant to ATN)

She does not have a favourite House and would just be a regular person in the world of TLT (though she would last about 0.5 seconds)

The tension between the Houses' ostensible gender equality and the misogyny that still persists is apparently also relevant to ATN. "John has set out to make a society on values he holds dear and cherishes and in some ways he has done really well... And in some way he has fucked it up beyond comprehension" (Maybe not an exact quote. My auditory processing is questionable.)

The backstory in NTN was planned right from the beginning

Lyctors "are not truly human any more. They've crystallised themselves" and "They have lost themselves and the only thing they've been able to hold on to is what other people make of them". She said she would have liked to make the Lyctors more alien but had to balance that with them being relatable narratively.

She is dying to read TLT fanfiction once she finishes the series.

Why are all the butches on this damn app taken

[pr3ttypunisher]

i get so soft for subs with heavy praise kinks. the ones whose whole body responds when i tell them they’re being good. who get more turned on every time i say “good girl” or “good boy.” who love asking for permission to cum because hearing “yes you can, baby” is what pushes them over the edge. the ones who love being talked through it gently, who need me to guide them verbally. “keep going, sweetheart. just like that. you’re doing perfect.” who need constant affirmation, who get off on being told how well they’re doing, how good they are, how perfect they feel.

Strap is DESPERATELY needed</3

[loserbutchblog]

sometimes i wonder if im actually butch or if im a poser then i remember that sincerely the most turned on ive ever been in my entire life was the day a femme (who i always held the door for of course) was walking a few feet ahead of me, reached the doorway, then STOPPED and waited for me to open it for her like she wouldn’t be caught dead touching a door handle when i was around. like she had forgotten how to open it herself. like it would burn her if she touched it. i still think about her all the time.

i genuinely think being spoiled is the hottest thing a femme can be. this girl was seriously smart as a whip and a thousand times more competent than i could ever hope to be. she can open a damn door, but the fact that she not only LETS me make her life a little easier, but INSISTS on it? im lightheaded
