"It is extraordinarily difficult, for example, to teach a wolf to walk on a leash, even if you have raised it from puppyhood and it is quite tame. If you pull, it pulls back automatically, and if you are too insistent and pull too hard, the wolf, no matter how calm and sociable it usually is, panics and tries to escape."

- Don't Shoot The Dog by Karen Pryor about the effectiveness of negative reinforcement on wild animals.

proposing a new genre of fiction called an anti-romance where u r presented w a couple at the start & the story is about their emotional journey towards a catastrophic break up

[stephexmachina]

will they won't they (end this farce). there's only one bed (but for some reason they don't really want to share it). out of context eavesdropping (that paints the relationship in a better light than it deserves). chasing after them to stop them getting on that plane (and stopping them from finally being free)

[stephexmachina]

nobody understands my vision i don't mean any old story where a relationship fails and it's tragic or w/e i mean a story where the intention is for the audience to root for it failing the same way u root for it succeeding in a romance. & when the relationship finally implodes at the climax of the story it's all very cathartic & everybody cheers.

[stephexmachina]

like have u never wanted a fictional couple to break up so badly it hurt?

kitten fever is worse than baby fever because a kitten is way easier to obtain than a baby so it's more dangerous

me making ocs when i was 13: okay i want my character to be cool and different but not too different... i dont want anyone to call them a mary sue... or too edgy... or forced diverrsity.... and i have to draw good or else i could end up on a deviantart youtube video like my friend did that one time... this is hard...

me writing characters now: hes a wolf with blue hair and he has a chainsaw that can turn into a bass guitar. his name is road boy because three bikers found him on the road during the apocolypse and raised him to do stunt motorcycle tricks but they have no idea what his real name is hes bi and ace and his best friend is a trans woman and he lives in an abandoned mall

this has probably already been articulated better by some respected sociologist somewhere but i would argue that congruent with the ableist denial of dignity of risk is this refusal to conceive of certain demographics and individuals as capable of meaning, or even comprehending, their ability to do harm. and this denial of what i call "dignity of intent" is used to effectively isolate and punish anyone who can be determined a danger to themselves and/or "society" by severing the ties of cause and effect; of choice and consequence, while maintaining the illusory integrity of the status quo. people are dangerous not as a result of any conditions placed upon them that define them as such, but simply due to an inherent flaw in their nature - an immutable moral failing; weak, worthless flesh that cannot be molded or taught. if someone cannot accept that they pose too much of a potential threat to the social order be allowed free range, then they cannot be trusted to act autonomously, so they must be caged and leashed or put down like an animal with a bite history.

[valtsv]

"innocence" is a rhetorical device used by the repressed comfortable to oppress the disturbed. there is no action, behaviour, or ontological state of being that begets punishment, and no amount of moral or ethical purity that can defend one from suffering, even if it were achievable. the concept of an "innocent victim" is akin to a bladeless knife with no handle - a thought exercise in pointlessness.

[valtsv]

to want to reduce harm or the risk thereof is an admirable and worthwhile goal, but to deny anyone, yourself included, the possibility of intent to harm or even offend entirely only threatens your freedom
