I think 50 shades of grey did so much damage to BDSM writing in fic and like not because I think fic writers were taking inspiration from it, but we did get a lot of detailed explanatory posts about all the different ways in which those guys were Doing It Wrong, which is not in and of itself a bad thing but since then everybody got so hung up on making sure everybody in their fics was nothing like 50 shades of grey and actually demonstrates that yes I do understand the principles of safe sane and consensual and the traffic light system and safewording and aftercare and checking in that now everybody fucks like a 101 handbook and I think we've only just recently started to recover from it. love me a dynamic where it's two repressed freak idiots who accidentally invent BDSM all on their own and have to come up with the strangest most deeply harmful ways of navigating that situation

dawn summers is also a contender for character of all time. she's an eldritch horror stuffed into the body of a teenage girl. she's six months old. she's older than time. she's fourteen. she talks shit to the faces of the forces of darkness. she speaks sumerian. she killed her first kiss with a pencil. her best friend is a punk vampire that simps over her big sister. she writes about the horrors in her diary. she has done necromancy. she's a kleptomaniac. her favorite sandwich is salami with peanut butter. she was willing to sacrifice her life to save the world at fourteen years old. she became her sister's watcher when the original watcher abandoned them. she's extraordinary.

“…to me” is one of the most powerful disclaimers we have on here… is this character analysis accurate? debatable. but it’s real… to me.

as an actor your first and main goal on any project should be to lean into the gay subtext and if there is none, to create your own.

anyway you should always remember that all those foreigners you see dying on the news are just as real people as you are who have just as much interiority as you do. there is nothing about you that makes you more important and it is by pure chance that you are not in their position. in fact, this holds for all of history. every person, no matter the horror of the fate that befell them, had just as much interiority as you do. i feel like some people haven't fully internalized this.

grooming is such an annoying term, post 2637474…rereading lolita and it highlights the weird victim blaming thrust of its inaccurate wide application. this idea that what is happening in csa is about mesmerizing a child so they don’t know it’s wrong and “go along” with abuse. it’s about like, manipulation, not material power. the focus is all on a perpetrator working on their mind and soul until they don’t have the capacity for independent self-knowledge. but that’s not what happens often. even after months of sexual abuse dolores still refers to “the hotel where you raped me.” she knows what is happening to her is wrong and awful and disgusting. she cries every night. despite the idea that hh is a dazzling manipulator working on the reader, dolores herself remains firmly unassimilated to his worldview, and this is clear even in his self-serving text. but she’s 13, hh has total power over her life, her mother is dead, and he threatens her with becoming a ward of the state or sent to reformatory school or even prison if she tells anyone. and despite what he says, she is certainly not a stupid girl. that’s my thing. victims are not actually stupid. they stay silent not because they have been bamboozled but because they are smart enough to know the alternative is worse. the reasons they go along and stay quiet are tragic but intelligent calculations of cost-benefit and we have to change the social system where it’s so often less damaging to stay silent.

Who knows how much longer I'll lay on the floor

Touch me till I vomit
