"There is an indirect but tangible connection between my family’s inability to purchase health insurance, and the quality of the hors d’oeuvres at this party. The world that makes my childhood friends go on large, unnecessary detours to get a shot at their dreams is the same world that heaps largely unappreciated splendors on these party-goers. It’s not an intuitive conclusion to draw, but when you think about it, the reason this chocolate truffle tastes so good is that my brother and I went to a state school. The reason this champagne is on the house is that the house is largely on Africa, South America and rural India."

Does anyone out there have a recommendation for explicit GL manga? I'm interested in something with a strong plot/characterization + hopefully perverted illustrations. I picked up "I Love You So Much I Hate You" randomly because the premise of a woman seducing her older, married boss lady seemed deliciously toxic... But it ended up very fluffy. Kinda boring. (They didn't even hate each other at any point... Wtf false advertising.......). And the illustrations were extremely tame. Not what I was looking for.

If anyone has any sexy and potentially problematic recs, please throw them in the comments or my DMs.

i think avoidance is such a little-recognized ocd compulsion. all the time i talk to people with ocd who are like "i was always having intrusive thoughts about using kitchen knives and harming myself or others but i'm okay now because i just stopped using knives ever 👍 so i'm good now"

and i'm like unfortunately i have bad news.

[wizardarchetypes]

if you don't know why this doesn't work, the issue is that ocd never stops when you implement a compulsion. it evolves. today you've "solved" it by never using a knife again (and losing access to an important cooking tool, thus limiting an aspect of your life) but in a few months or a year it'll be that forks are dangerous too. and hey, isn't it risky to use the stove? avoidance will even begin to manifest in places you might not recognize.

the point is that OCD compulsions are never solutions, they're actually the problems. the intrusive thoughts SEEM like the problem and the compulsions FEEL like the solution. and that's how it getsya.

i once saw a serial killer on the news wearing green and became fixated on the obsession that if i wore green it would like. hypnotize me into serial killing in my sleep (???) so i didn't wear the color green for an entire year. and of course being OCD i knew how "stupid" that was and that i wouldn't actually be effected by green clothes. i didn't actually believe that! but the fear didn't need to be real; the distress was real.

looking back it's so funny. like. dude my eyes are green. i was never safe hahahaaaa

"But it's not FOR them!!!" The biggest military power in the world belongs to a christofascist nation overseen by a felon found guilty of 34 federal crimes and has greenlit a gestapo with more direct funding than the entire military of Canada for the purpose of ethnic cleansing.

Have you ever *accidentally* stepped on or kicked a pigeon?

Yes, multiple times

Yes, once

No, but I've seen others do it

No, never

Nuance, somehow?

It's very telling how many terfs think "porn addiction" is a real thing when researchers found it to be a Christian invention that has to deal with shame and not actually a real addiction.

*Gasp!* You're telling me terfs are just conservative Christians?!

[maidslime]

Anytime anyone insists porn addiction is real I just call them Mormon. They get really pissy but it's true.

being a kid and hearing adults say stuff like "woah 2011 was 4 years ago haha" didn't really convey the fucking horror of a youtube video crossing my recommended labelled "9 years ago" and it's from 2017. that's not true. 9 years ago is 2010 or something. don't lie.
