Ok I want to say something controversial

But you are responsible for your own safe spaces. You can block tags, block words, block people.

“But i thought fandom was supposed to be a safe space” —yeah you have to curate it.

Unfortunately one persons’s safe space may be another persons’ trigger. That’s ok. Simply block them, block the tag, block the word etc. They can do the same for you.

Maybe I’m just out of touch, but I’ve been around since the days of “don’t like, don’t read” and that’s a good philosophy. If it squicks you, scroll past. If it causes you anxiety or upset, block! Plenty of people are responsive if you ask them to tag an upsetting trigger. And if they’re dicks about it, block em.

Since different people have different needs, one person’s safe space will be another’s Trauma Central.

I don’t know who said it first, but “I need to be able to express my anger without shame” and “I need to be away from yelling and loud noises” are both valid needs people can have for a safe space that really aren’t compatible with each other.

So are “I need to process my trauma” and “I need to not meet any trauma.”

Or “I want a safe space to tell/read the stories that speak to me” and “those stories are distressing to me.”

Insisting that your needs are the only needs anyone should have is not a safe space, it’s its own act of violence.

You don’t get to make others homeless to make the universe your personal safe space.

Don't be ridiculous. Our backs and knees absolutely cannot do that.

With regard to teenagers weaponizing the whole 'literal children's business, I have news - they ARE literal children and some of them have NOT yet developed far enough to 'know better.' The thing to remember is that it doesn't free them from repercussions, the same way it doesn't mean an 8 year old's tantrum won't go unheeded by their parents (one would hope). You can still put them in their place, and you SHOULD. I don't know why the internet has magically forgotten How It Was Before, but if teenagers got online and acted up before social media came along, grown adults never hesitated to put them in their place - if you want to interact in adult spaces, you'll be treated as one (within reason, obviously). "I'm a literal child." Okay, then log off and get your mommy over here to look at what you're posting, because you obviously can't be here unsupervised. That's it. That's your response. You don't have to accept bullying from 'literal children' whose brains have not fully developed, and you certainly aren't their parents and responsible for keeping them from getting their feelings hurt. Don't bully them in return, but you're the adult - give them the unvarnished reality of the situation and move on.

I think a lot of people have accepted the lie that fandom is a teen space. They're afraid to go "you're sitting at the grown ups' table now, so act like it".

Let him die.

I don’t owe you anything. Not conversation, not politeness, not my nakedness, not my truth, not my body, not one fucking iota of me.

Let him die.  One less person who acts this way running around the planet would be great.
