the worst part of the classic defense of "its to crack down on CSEM!" defense for giving parents more power over every aspect of their kids lives is like

WHO DO YOU THINK IS MAKING THE FUCKING CSEM. nowadays it is usually either a) directly made by a parent or b) done with a parent's knowledge (a pimping out their child for money type deal)

if the legal system was actually trying to stamp out CSA and CSEM, it would be seeking to disempower and scrutinize parents as much as humanly possible

Tumblr is super big on the "I didn't say it was good, I said I liked it" but really need to discover the value in its opposite of "I didn't say it was bad, I said I hated it".

You can acknowledge that something is good, great, a masterpiece even, and just straight-up not enjoy it.

Comin in hot with Tropical!

A unique deathclaw that stores water in immense fat deposits.

NB: We never found our field researcher who discovered this particular specimen, but a cryptic bloodstained note in his handwriting was found in its den. None of us know what 'it fuckin pineapple' means.

The internet: Em dashes are a sign of generative AI! Bad!

Me, shining a bright light on my books from the 1900s: What did you know?

I'mma just say something that may get people angry at me, but at this point I don't give a fuck.

F/F communities gatekeep way too much. Speaking as someone who's in those, the unwritten rules are ridiculous.

If a character is bi, that's ignored.

If a character has no stated canon sexuality, you aren't allowed to headcanon them as anything other than a lesbian.

There's weird possessiveness of the characters, they act like the characters having male fans is somehow an offense to them.

They openly say men aren't welcome into the shipping spaces.

If you're a bi woman, you're on thin fucking ice. Know your place and don't you dare bring bisexuality into anything, otherwise you're not welcome.

Basically, if you're not a lesbian, you can't sit with us. 🙄

Meanwhile, M/M communities are cool with everyone. You're gay? Welcome. Straight, bi, anything else? Come on in! You're a man? Hello, there, brother! You think one of the characters is bi instead of gay? Totally cool!

Maybe more people would join F/F communities if they weren't such toxic, gatekeeping cesspools.

I'm not going to say that this is even in the top 3 reasons for why people write more m/m than f/f fanfiction but I notice I definitely see considerably more strict policing about f/f pairings. I notice it even though I don't even read fanfic just because of how much drama tends to breach containment.

The fujos seem to be having considerably more fun making their toys fuck toxic-style without having to make them go to church before and after.

If hentai and porn disappeared tomorrow would anything change? It serves no function in society beyond creating a class of creeps that roam the internet and have a warped view of sex/sexuality

You’re literally running a milf-themed erotic roleplay blog.

What a time to be an Aubrey Plaza fan! 😇

In my experience as a third culture kid who travels a lot the best indicator that you as a non-x is appreciating x culture is if the locals actively invite you to participate in it with them

Yes, you are allowed to buy those handmade Inuit winter clothes if an Inuk is literally selling them to you. They would not be offering you a price point if they didnt want you to buy and wear them. And you might discover that theyre the best winter clothes youve ever worn because of COURSE they would be if theyve kept this culture warm in harsh winters for thousands of years.

Yes, you are allowed to join those Cambodians in that local holiday theyre celebrating during your visit if they literally invited you to it. They would not have invited you if they didnt want you to participate. And in the process you might learn a lot about a culture you never wouldve interacted with and you can all have a laugh together about your clumsy but genuine attempts at getting your footwork right in one of their traditional dances.

Yes, you are also allowed to ask if you can participate in something from the local culture you are visiting. Sometimes you will get "sorry, thats a closed practice" but in my experience most of the time you'll get "of course, let me show you how to do this!" And in my experience people tend to appreciate when others make an active effort in sharing their culture and wont stone you to death if youre clumsy about it while youre learning. I guarantee that the local children doing all of this for the first time too make the same mistakes you do and they can tell if youre being disrespectful or genuine.

So much "cultural appropriation" discourse really starts to sound like "you cant participate or visit any other cultures if youre from a Colonial Culture and have to stay in your little box and never relate to other people"
