What are some of the hot wife ground rules?

1. My husband is my BEST friend. He comes first ALWAYS. No exceptions.

2. It’s a privilege to touch me so make sure you treat it as such.

3. This is supposed to fun. Start causing unnecessary drama and I’m sorry but you gotta go.

4. Understand I’m a flawed human. I’m new at this and I’m NOT perfect.

5. Remember I have to divide my attention and you have to be able to be cool with that.

Gonna be real, y’all literally have no reason to be so rude to people who ship certain ships. (I say this as someone whose most controversial ship is one with a 3 year age gap, dead serious.)

Sure, I find some things gross. Sure, I hate some things. Sure, I think some characters don’t work together. Sure, I don’t enjoy certain topics in fiction. Those are feelings I don’t have much control over, and likely neither do you. That’s fine.

But I will never condone people trying to harass or express vitriol towards these real people who are just trying to have a good time with their creativity. I have never outwardly called another person gross for liking something in fiction, no matter what I think about how they see fictional characters.

They’re fictional characters, in fictional scenarios, in fictional stories. You can avoid them, and they don’t actually hurt anybody. You can be grossed out or feel however the hell you want, and you can do as I do and go about your day without hurting any real person. The block button exists. Filters exist.

At the end of the day, my perspective stems from anti-censorship. I am against the idea of controlling what people can write or portray because it is a slippery slope. You can twist my words, say I ‘condone’ blahblahblah or ‘like’ blahblahblah, but at the end of the day I simply condone creative freedom. That takes precedent. It says nothing about what I find enjoyable in fiction.

Now go enjoy your ships and please leave other actual people alone. Curate your internet experience and be happier, please.

This is very much a case of tumblr being a lot of people who were not cool when they were younger and are overcompensating by taking their insecurity out on other people now and a lot of people who were not cool and remain uncool (in most cases nothing wrong with that) all interacting with each other but I think some people could stand to be a little nicer about people's sensory issues and more specifically allergies, migraines etc. resulting from that wrt smoke, perfume etc. yes even if it's weed and even if someone is expressing that in a way that annoys you, all that said don't call the cops on people for smoking like actually what is wrong with you lol

Another piece of college advice

I would like to add to my freshman advice and say LEARN THE NAMES OF THE STAFF especially if you see them on a daily basis!!! A lot of people treat the staff like robots which is not okay. If you are personable with them, they will be with you.

An example is there is this check-out lady who I've known the name of for a long time, but she's always really angry-looking so I'm too scared to say anything more than "Hey." One day I was in a brave mood so I said in a friendly tone "Hey ____, how are you?" and her expression brightened immediately. The kitchen staff that I speak with more regularly are really sweet and almost always give me discounts. Plus they work long-ass shifts so you might as well try to brighten things up for them.
