Squick

Squick is a noble word. It recognizes and honors your own personal taste while recognizing and honoring that your personal taste does not dictate morality.

I wish we used it more.

i know things are hella grim in the nsfw/kink art circles especially in the last year --

but I'm hearing there's a NSFW-friendly ko-fi alternative built on atproto that's actively in the works, and being vetted by lawyers right now. as torrent-princess (OP) says, you should be able to swap out payment processors while keeping your account intact. this matters since even if stripe removes support, you'll still have a shop and all of your links intact. (ATproto is an infrastructure that bsky is built on, but is far bigger than bsky with far more opportunities.)

additionally, the Free Speech Coalition is working on a credit union specifically for adult work (including kink art) - here's the link so you can add your interest & support. Since this will be built by sex workers, there'll be far less risk of being debanked for spurious and puritanical reasons.

on a domain TLD level, there's an initiative here for a .furry domain built from the ground up by seasoned furries; it's unclear whether they'll support NSFW, but it's yet another promising turn of events for a group that's been similarly affected by censorship.

there are friends and allies out there helping to build a working parallel infrastructure. keep being vocal, keep supporting these initiatives when it's possible, and keep supporting your nsfw/kink artists. ♥

I see that "learned helplessness" is the hot new psychological term getting wildly misused. the phrase you're looking for is "weaponized incompetence," babes

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

weaponized incompetence is when your partner does chores shitty on purpose so that you stop asking them to do chores. learned helplessness is when you've experienced so much trauma that you've developed the mindset that you can't meaningfully change your situation and have become accordingly passive.

if your partner is exhibiting learned helplessness they aren't manipulating you, they're displaying a trauma response.

when i think about all the people in this world who chose their career path because of a meaningful piece of media from their youth i smile so much. people getting into biology because of pokémon. people getting into law because of ace attorney. people getting into cooking and selling crystal meth because of breaking bad. so beautiful smile world <3

[dog-of-ulthar]

I'm so mad that a crucial piece of ADHD infrastructure for me has been learning to leave shit half done. It flies in the face of all conventional wisdom. It flies in the face of my own experience, as a serial ongoing project neglector. I gotta just stop, and stop where it makes the LEAST amount of sense to stop.

If I say "just let me just get to a good stopping point," that is the devil speaking through me. If I get to a good stopping point, I wrap up a big chunk of a project, I put everything away, mentally and physically. Getting to a good stopping point means finishing up all the easy stuff you already figured out how to do, so the next step when you try to get back to it is all hard stuff, AND you have to get all the Tools and Materials out again? Nothing will come of this. One million quilt blocks be upon ye, and no finished quilt.

And if I say "I'll power through and finish now, and then I'll be done," this is an even bigger and meaner devil. I know I CAN work when I'm getting progressively more tired, hungry, or frustrated, but I also know my efficiently is going to start dropping rapidly. There is NO POINT in pushing through that, if you aren't in high school. Adult deadlines aren't real. File for an extension on your taxes and do that shit whenever. Don't finish Now. Finish in the morning, finish after lunch, after you've taken a little walk. You have to fight the demon that really really REALLY wants to be Done, because when you force yourself to work while not at your best you cause it to take twice as long and make you four times as miserable. I know you're thinking "but if I don't finish while I have motivation I might never finish", and that's true, but only if you stop WRONG

You gotta stop time's up pencils down NO last minute final touches. Leave the needle in the fabric. Do not tie a knot. For the love of god do not put anything away if you can help it. Do not save and exist that word document. Listen, it fucking hurts. It rankles at you the rest of the day, the feeling of "oooh I was so close, I just gotta do this one little thing." That's GOOD. That feeling is what breaks the cycle, the tendency to put something down and not touch it for a month or more. That one little thing is a gift to yourself in the morning. It gets you back in. Then when you're high on having finished your big task and STILL full of energy because it's a new day and you only did one little thing?? Maybe you're going to bask in that for a while, but if you're anything like me that's when you start the next hard thing. Because you're already up and doing stuff, and you've just proven to yourself that projects do get finished sometimes. And THIS is how you build momentum. This is how you regain faith in yourself.

stop using hospitals as horror settings

[mamoru]

fun alternative: cruise ships. cruise ships exploit workers and can pollute as much as a million cars on a daily basis while dumping endless shit into the ocean and endangering all passengers on board because the on board air quality rivals some of the most polluted cities in the world while being a breeding ground for disease. cruise ships deserve to have negativity associated with them

[catparazzi]

also all crimes commited aboard a cruise ship is under the juristiction of whichever country they’re registered to once they’re a certain distance away from land so you have the added bonus of the crimes being very unlikely to be properly investigated (due to usually being physically so very far from the actual police whose juristiction they’re under)

[mamoru]

terrifying!

[xcekait]

On top of THAT cruise ships tend to have their own morgue, as people tend to die on ships all the time. Good for those spooky scenes.

[bananonbinary]

plus u can just like…leave a hospital. good luck escaping a killer or a monster or a curse or w/e in the middle of the fucking ocean

[sketchyfletch]

As an ex cruise ship employee, let me give you some stuff to work with!

Water tight doors! You get a special training video on interacting with these correctly because they will literally cut you in half if you try and go through them while they’re closing!

Freezer vaults for food in the sub decks - you can only get into these with the correct code and they have very thick walls. Good luck if you get shut in one of these just after the last round of checks bucko

There are cameras everywhere…except in the crew cabin corridors. Also there are no windows down there because unless you’re an officer, you live below the waterline. Day and night have no meaning because everything is in the same slightly unsettling yellow light.

Don’t piss off the guys who deal with the rubbish. They have machines down there that can crush metal barrels

As well as morgues, cruise ships usually have one basic operating theatre with all the attendant horrifying equipment in it

One cigarette thrown carelessly in the wrong place WILL start a fire that will gut half the ship.

When we’re pitching side to side, the anchor swings out and then back in, striking the metal outer shell with a noise that shakes half the ship

People disappear overboard more often than you’d really want to be a thing

A lot of cruise ships now have theatres on board (usually towards the front) with all the potential for dark corners, creepy costumes and electrical calamities you could want.

And as op says, you can’t really escape a ship in the middle of the ocean. Particularly during a storm, as then you can’t even evacuate to lifeboats unless the whole ship is going down. On the upside being on board during a storm means most guests hide in their cabins and the staff walk around like drunks, which would likely throw off a skilled murderer’s plans.

You also have the bonus of a corporate overlord who doesn’t give a shit about anything but profits and can be reliably counted on to downplay any disaster in an attempt to avoid publicity.

I’m gonna propose “I guess you haven’t read the silmarillion then :/” as a default response to anyone not understanding a reference to something obscure. even if it’s not remotely Tolkien related. I want to build up a perception that perhaps the sum total of human knowledge is contained in the silmarillion

There’s something so uniquely terrifying about memory issues. I feel like my self is slipping away from me.

[ace-disgrace-on-the-case]

Here’s the thing I feel like a lot of folks don’t get: I’m not trying to forget what you said. Honestly, I really tried not to. I can’t control what I do and don’t remember—forgetting things just happens. It’s annoying for you, I know, but for me it’s distressing as hell and when you make a big deal out of it rather than just reminding me you make me feel ashamed. I’ll remember that, at least.

It costs you nothing to be kind to people with memory problems. Please. It’s scary enough without people treating memory lapses as a personal failing.

[giga-queen]

ship wars are dumb. Polyamory and aromanticism are easy, simple, and effective solutions

[nerdragons-hoard]

I don't see how polyamory or aromanticism could patch up the holes in my hull but if you say so

[professional-egg-layer]

woah dude….. your hurt sound is vaguely sexual….. im trying to kill you but im. im getting a bit flustered

[professional-egg-layer]

who is leon dbd

[professional-egg-layer]

ok i looked up leon dead by daylight and omfg why does he… wh…. why does he sound like that

[professional-egg-layer]

this literally is not an exaggeration

The comments on the YT video are also hilarious

More comments that made me laugh:

It’s also worth noting that Leon’s VA for dbd Riley McShane knew exactly what he was doing.

I have a buddy who works as the slush pile editor for a generally well respected literary magazine. He told me that a lot of young women especially have been submitting stories in which a woman has IBS or some kind of terrible diarrhea. Which makes sense to me. It's a painful and gross experience that challenges ones self-conception of femininity. Like idk about you but it's hard to be coquettish while suffering from a mild case of food poisoning. He also said a lot of these stories don't really go anywhere. Like they hover over and around the shadow of this yucky image but don't really grapple what the relationship between painful diarrhea and the modern experience of femininity might be.

The last time I met someone with a vomit fetish, I asked about it. She recalled this youthful brush with the flu, and how her entire family kinda came together to clean her up, clean her clothes and body, maker her comfortable for bed. Which makes sense to me, there is something kinda intoxicating about being seen at your lowest and yuckiest and still being deserving of love and care. I think that's what a lot of these mildly palahniuk short stories about female diarrhea are pointing towards. Bc like it's one of the most disgusting things people might regularly encounter in regards to their own body. There's a process of confronting the grossest parts of having a body, but then taking care of yourself and continuing on with the day that does have some interesting narrative legs, especially in regards to the expectations and experience of being a women. Just my thoughts on some poop stories.

[erisolkat]

the humble "like" is oft mocked despite what it does for us. "like, three people" is a vastly different statement from "three people". "and i was like 'what the fuck'" is vastly different from "and i said 'what the fuck'". i love you "like" and anyone who says you make people sound stupid will be killed on sight
