I think some people forget that some literature and some media is meant to be deeply uncomfortable and unsettling. It's meant to make you have a very visceral reaction to it. If you genuinely can't handle these stories then you are under no obligation to consume them but acting as if they have no purpose or as if people don't have a right to tell these stories, stories that often relate to the darkest or most disturbing parts of life, then you should do some introspection.
I’ve read some things that deal in sad/dark/actually depressing and disturbing subject matter. I’ve loved them and the points they make without endorsing the events portrayed.
It’s always disappointing to get online and see that the conversation is “X thing shouldn’t exist” on the grounds that it made somebody feel badly. It was meant to make you feel that way and it’s normal that it did - it’s okay that you stop reading it or don’t finish it but I am BEGGING you to consider why it made you uncomfortable and why the author felt the need (if the answer isn’t immediately obvious, as it can be). There isn’t shame in something putting you off so badly that you shelve it.
The sterilization of reality is a detriment to all who exist within it. To censor stories with painful themes is to erase the reality that such stories are based in some horrific truth and works to erase the reality that many people have endured.
This trend or whatever we want to call it has gotten so bad that I listened to an entire lecture from somebody about how awful a book was and how it shouldn’t exist at all, how the author was a terrible person for concocting it and how it hurt people. When I asked what the book was, this person not only could barely recall the name but HAD NEVER READ IT. I bought the book. I read the book. It accomplished its task beautifully and I found it to be a cathartic experience. I also understood how it could make people so uncomfortable and would never judge anybody for setting it down.
It’s okay not to like something and distance yourself from it. Remember that those rules apply only to you, though, because they speak only to your own psyche.
Periodic reminder that one of the many roles of fiction is microdosing on big scary feelings so you build resilience, empathy, understanding, and defense against the real thing.

Been very hard for me to find any inspiration lately. :(

Graphic design is my passion...anyway!
Welcome to the Countdown to Dawntrail, at time of posting, we have 9 Weeks to go!
So here's the deal. You select one (or more if you want) prompts. And either write or screenshot to correspond with it. And then just do it within the week. No need for daily submission, just...whenever you have time for it. Stress free. Don't feel rushed. Just do it when you got the chance and inclination. Stretch those creative muscles when possible. And I hope my lack of good looking *gestures* encourages those with lesser experience in writing, gposing, what have you...to join in.
For those whose phone won't load the picture or whatever:

You can just @ me if you want to show off and I'll reblog. But its just something fun and relaxing to do.
Don’t put too much Weight on RP.
Take a break. RP should not dictate your life. If you find it dictating your mental health, it’s likely a time to take a step back. RP is a hobby. It can be frustrating if people aren’t replying to memes/starters/etc. But remember timezones are a thing, sometimes other people aren’t in the best mental state themselves, sometimes people are too busy IRL to watch the dash, sometimes they have writer’s block. There will be other days. There will be other interactions. People still care about you and your muse(s). Try again later, there is no shame in reblogging stuff from yourself. But do not guilt people into interacting with you.
At the end of the day RP is a hobby. We’re here to have fun. Don’t let it dictate everything.
Just remembering Ultima Thule, as one does.

Alphinaud: I have a bad feeling about this...
WoL: What do you mean?
Alphinaud: Don't you ever get that little voice in your head that tells you if you're going into trouble?
WoL: No?
Alphinaud: ...That actually explains so much.
