โCats donโt actually love youโ
A cat is a small creature in the middle of the food chain that is fully aware that you are a very large thing that could stomp its head in at any moment and yet it chooses to rest its tiny little head on your leg for a nap and spreads out on the floor near you exposing its belly and its most sensitive organs. It brings dead mice and bugs to you to share food.
Donโt you get it? This tiny thing trusts you. It wants to help you too. It licks your leg thinking that itโs helping. It kneads on you to find comfort. It shares its body warmth with you in the cold and gives you your space in the heat. It hisses at other mammals it sees outside including other cats in an effort to protect its family.
Cats love you so so much. But they will keep trying to eat plastic.
To any hesitant smut writers, new and old, I want to let you in on an itty-bitty secret. The Rule of Sexy is always valid; your smut does not have to be realistic. You can absolutely depict human bodies doing things during sex that they don't (typically, anyway) do in real life. Want that dick to be able to ejaculate at full capacity 10 times in a row with no refractory period? Want that pussy to be able to take a 12 inch+ cock? You want painless, hell even pleasurable, cervix penetration? Cumming untouched just from giving someone else oral? Holes that "beg to be filled" by gaping open? Insta-boners? Self-lubricating buttholes? Rule of Sexy; if it's hot, fucking do it!
You're writing smut. Not a sex-ed piece.
Fandom genuinely went wrong when people started imagining a divide between fandom creators and everyone else.
As a fandom creator I am not here to serve you or to "create content" for you, or to make the things that you want to see.
I create fandom works for myself, and they are graciously shared with you. If you don't want to enjoy them, that's fine, but you don't get to demand that I make something else.
You don't get to show up at my dinner table unexpected and start demanding I cook you the meal you personally want to eat.
Just blocked someone with "I'm fine with all ships, except illegal ones!", and I keep thinking about it. I'm from a place where gay ships are literally illegal, you're not allowed to post anything about it, illegal-illegal. So when I see people say stuff like this my brain immedeately labels them "anti-queer", sorry guys, you said it, not me...
Anyway, daily reminder to everyone: law โ morality
โผ๏ธ
My followers know I hate talking about politics and current events, and generally refuse to do so, but this is important.
A bill has been introduced in the US that would make all pornography a federal crime. Owning it. Creating it. Distributing it.
Under this law, fanart of nude characters would be a federal crime.
Under this law, depictions of homosexuality or simply being transgender, would be considered pornography and a federal crime.
This bill is not going to pass.
However, the reason for this bill is to continue to push the "overton window". The reason for this bill is to make banning pornography seem more and more normal to everyone until they can actually do that.
And remember, they consider depictions of gay characters and transgenders characters "pornography" in any context, including platonic.
They have been working on this for a decade now and it has been working.
If you are one of the people in fandom who thinks that "nasty" porn on AO3 should be banned because it's "icky" or "immoral", then this mental scam is working on you.
Censorship is never about protecting people.
Censorship is always about control.
Do not let the rising moral panic affect your mind and make you weak to propaganda that lets others control you and control what you watch and read.
Do not fall for the scam.
When they say they are going to ban "pornography" it means they're going to ban anything they don't like by calling it "pornography" and they don't like you!!
"We have to defend problematic porn because they're gonna come for the Good and PureTM porn next! And then the Good and PureTM educational content!"
We need to defend problematic porn because adults should have the ability to engage with problematic porn if they so choose. I, as an adult, should be able to look up and engage with whatever "problematic" content I want to, without government interference. If I want to read or watch something "gross" that someone else created so I could engage with it, OR create something "gross" for other adults to engage with, then I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THAT WITHOUT GIVING ANY GOVERNMENT ENTITY MY ID.
That doesn't mean I'm a fan of all content that could be considered "obscene" or "disgusting." I don't think anyone should be forced to engage with things they aren't interested in. Just like saying adults should be able to have a choice about drinking alcohol doesn't mean I support pouring alcohol down the throats of people who are sober. IN FACT, I'm a big fan of encouraging people to block and avoid things that trigger or squick them.
But that's an individual choice, not a government (or corporation!) choice.
No. No exclusions.
And I know it's uncomfortable. There are things I don't engage with because I, personally, cannot handle it. There are subjects and themes and kinks I absolutely feel disgusted by. Things that will not only turn me off, but absolutely make me feel sick to my stomach.
However, disgust cannot be the center of my understanding of morality. So if there is pornographic material that does not materially harm someone, I will not advocate for its censorship. I will block it. I will critique it. I will scrunch my nose and and grimace and maybe even say "yuck." I will personally not engage with people who post that material, and I will loudly call for them to use effective tagging to help people avoid squicks and triggers.
There is nothing that meets the terms of service of this website that would make me feel comfortable with any government or payment processing entity requiring identification to access. And there is nothing worth risking the slippery slope of censorship.
โThe trouble about fighting for human freedom... is that you have to spend much of your life defending sons-of-bitches;ย for oppressive laws are always aimed at them originally, and oppression must be stopped in the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.โ
quick reminder that you're actually not obliged to feel any empathy for someone who would have described your death as 'necessary' if the exact same thing had happened to you
posting this in light of Recent Events
ID: A comic with four panels. Each panel has a repeating character, colored in grey, always looking upset, always with a thought bubble repeating a phrase over and over.
The titled is labeled: โExamples of Intrusive Thoughts:โ
The first panel is labeled, โAggressiveโ, and half shows the character cutting carrots with a knife, a thought bubble above them reading: โSlit your wristsโ repeatedly.
The other half of the panel shows the character laying next to someone in bed, their thought bubble reading: โSuffocate themโ repeatedly.
The second panel is labeled โSexualโ and one half of the panel shows the character standing beside someone else who is smiling but the characterโs thought bubble reads: โRape Themโ repeatedly.
The other half of the panel shows the character holding a towel in front of someone smaller, who is reaching up for help getting out of a bath. The characterโs thought bubble reads: โTouch themโ repeatedly.
The third panel is labeled โMentalโ. On one half, the character is hiding under a blanket, thought bubble reading: โMind readersโ repeatedly. On the other half, they are wearing headphones and their thought bubble reads: โBehind Meโ repeatedly.
The last panel is labeled โEthicalโ and the first half of it shows the character holding their head, the thought bubble reading, โRuin friendshipโ. On the second half, they bold a biblical cross and the thought bubble reads: โBurn itโ repeatedly.
At the very bottom of the comic is a heart with text inside reading: โThese thoughts are scary but do not make you evil or bad!โ

ITโS MARCH
Uhโฆ Itโs still Mayโฆ
Itโs august
Itโs September
I do not force xreaders to be blank slates. I do not leave hate comments if a xreader character behaves in a way I wouldnโt. I donโt demand part twoโs. I let the writer take me on a journey and enjoy the fic as they intended as it is their labor of love. And if I donโt enjoy the fic? I EXIT THE FIC AND SAY NOTHING TO THE AUTHOR!!!
"Single people are on average less healthy, less financially stable, and overall less satisfied with life than partnered and married people are. This must mean that monogamous relationships and marriage are the solution to society's problems"
Huh, it's almost like society, both socially and financially, is set up to specifically benefit people who have monogamous relationships and get married and punish people who don't partner or get married. It's almost like there are financial benefits that exist specifically to incentivize people to get married and have kids and be a nuclear family. It's almost like it was very culturally normal until very very very recently to just not have any deeper platonic relationships after you get married, meaning that single people past a certain age just get left behind and get treated as spinsters or loser bachelors. It's like life just is not designed for single people to be able to easily participate and survive while still being single. Huh, very weird. I'm sure marriage will fix this.
