Every time with you people. You will happily, gladly, even proudly reblog posts that salute "the freaks" and sing their praises and align yourselves with "the freaks," but then in the next breath you go back to your pearl-clutching and act on your gut reaction of disgust for "the freaks" you've selectively chosen as not being part of whatever arbitrary line you've set up around "the [acceptable] freaks"
Oh yeah I'm a freak, but not like those freaks, y'know?
If we're talking freaks, make sure you're not including those freaks
Like what is the meaning of "atypical and non-normative kinks that people are allowed to enjoy" to you? Only the ones you personally enjoy? "Socially" acceptable kinks? God forbid if you say, "ones where people aren't harmed." You imagine yourself as a purveyor - a connoisseur even - of "gross kinks," and yet still hold strongly onto your yuck reaction as being truth.
Every OP of a kink-positive post has to clarify that, yes actually I am including the ones you personally find disgusting and should not be included, and yet people still feel like they're in the right for saying, "yeah, yeah totally, I agree... But not this 'kink' cause we all know and agree those are the gross freaks and don't get to hang with us cool freaks!" Like, no! Sorry! I do not agree with you on that!
You're all spineless and truly do not understand what it means to be kink-positive in any sense of the word. Every single time someone brings it up, you all cite the same three or five kinks as being the "truly degenerate" ones that should not be included in "the freaks" and it's exhausting that we have to clarify the same old adage of "don't yuck people's yums" and that defining who the "real freaks" are is just an exercise in moving the goal posts until we find ourselves in the "we have to protect the children!!!" camp. And I don't think I have to explain why that line of logic does nothing but harm IF we really have been on the same page from the beginning.

For your question on whether shigaraki would have stopped the destruction if spinner asked, he may very well have stopped. He did say this allies should get what ever they wanted, so if spinner wanted him to stop, I would suppose shigaraki would have listened. However, he does have the rest of the league to think about, but they weren't really in it for destruction, they wanted change and justice.
I was soooo ready to agree with you! Because those were exactly my thoughts!!
And then I started thinking some more (unfortunately). Thinking about how Spinner started all of this because of Stain, because he wanted to make a difference, and how he was won over to follow Shigaraki and support him, and how he thought that destroyed horizon was so pretty and wanted to see it. And how, towards the end, Spinner's desire was to see Shigaraki succeed.
Anywho! Then I started thinking about how Spinner would rather see change and that Shigaraki was critiqued in the beginning because he had no drive, no ideals he was working towards other than destruction and how Spinner having such nebulous ideals of his own* combines with Shigaraki's destruction but then I think about the heteromorph discrimination group and how they destroyed that chapter, and it was a combination of their ideals (destroy and hopeful rebirth? Maybe? That the change wrought by the emptiness will be better).
.... So yeah I started spiralling off what should have been a very simple agreement. Because maybe at the end of it all, he never would've asked Shigaraki to stop because Spinner knew that's what Shigaraki wanted.
Or maybe I'll live in a world where Spinner gets captured and they get him to talk down Shigaraki so they can take down Shigaraki without killing him and actually at least one villain doesn't die and they break out of jail together and collect Dabi and toga and compress and live in the woods or whatever
*like he borrowed heavily from Stain's own manifesto and then once he moved away from that we do see him kind of floating around, trying to find a way to anchor himself, and anchor himself in the League

our current dilema is that the pain from our wisdom tooth keeps getting so bad we have to take pain meds (like it keeps hitting an 8/10 for several hours at a time. we can't not take pain meds) but the only pain meds that touch it have a warning on them saying not to take them for more than 3 days in a row, and we have at least another month of dealing with this, so I don't really know what to do.
the warning is because they're opioids and can cause addiction but I don't actually know how bad the risk is because everything seems to treat it like opioids are the worst thing ever and should be avoided at all costs and you'll get addicted if you so much as glance at them.
either way, my options are to either keep taking them and just accept that risk, or deal with being in so much pain I can't function. even with taking the pain meds I can tell we're a lot more irritable and short tempered and probably just insufferable to be around honestly and I hate the fact that pain causes this, but once again we've got to deal with this for over a month and we've also got to deal with the anxiety over what the treatment for it is going to actually involve.
I've had to deal with medical trauma stuff I didn't even know about until like yesterday when Lucy suggested it might be part of why I feel so shit, and I've had multiple panic attacks per day and constantly feel way more anxious than usual and I get the feeling we're just gonnaa have to put up with this for the next month and I don't know how the fuck I'm meant to cope with any of this
