Really wish we could quit this shell-game between "Everything is political" (true but vacuous), "This work is political" (Creators were attempting to communicate a specific political position that they hold via the themes, characterization and the rest, in a way you can argue using the content of the text) and "This work is political" (Creators weren't deliberately communicating a specific political stance but what the story takes for granted speaks volumes about the moment of its creation)

i know i joke about rent-lowering gunshots but i cannot emphasize enough that incest and rape kinks are extremely common. wildly popular. this is something that a lot of people fantasize about, because it’s an easily accessible taboo, it intrigues/scares/interests people and there’s a lot of content out there to absorb about it. it’s really not that out there or extreme to have those fetishes; we are talking top charters on pornhub of all places.

Every time I see news coverage of a protest I remember this image of a single overturned trashcan in front of The Washington Post building

Being forced to beg for an edge is one of the most degrading things to do to someone.

Begging for the privilege of being denied.

That’s fucked up, y’all.

There’s a pain inside that’ll never go away but it’s whatever

I love being friends with prostitutes and transsexuals and artists and drug dealers and perverts and queers

I miss being in love; entangled with someone's heart

WHAT is even the point of mind controlling a hero if it doesn't feel good. if you can't make them like it. if they don't learn to want it.

I just got described as an "ad hating commie" by someone because I said a minute of youtube ads is unpleasant. fully spent 5 minutes arguing and defending youtube ads. insane stuff

The American (and most other) prison systems is fucked. But America is the main one I know of that is a for profit indentured servitude system for corporate interests

more and more i feel like the political divide in my life is "are you a prison abolitionist or not", not because it's all that matters, but because the questions and beliefs contained therein seem to be the root of all other political subjects i care to care for.

I think venus flytraps should be intelligent and ambulatory. I think they should get into the cupboards. I think they should purr when you pet them.

Either that or I get exposed to too much fanfic of it. Either way eventually I get pulled in. I'm a bit of a traditionalist like that

I get my media recommendations the old fashioned way: by watching someone I follow on here go on an unhinged reblog spree of media related content until I eventually decide to go "alright, what's all this then"

OK stick with me here

Pain. Is a reward. For masochists.

If your submissive is a masochist you can reward them with pain.

They like pain, they want pain, they want you to hurt them.

So spank them as a reward, whip them when they've been good, encourage obedience by hitting them
