People still tend to lump JK Rowling in with the category of ~problematic artists~ and I need everyone to understand that is not the problem with her. She is not comparable to anyone who wrote a piece of fiction you hate, or someone who made rude comments in 2015 and has since learned better.
She is far more like Elon Musk. She is a radicalized person with an extreme amount of social and financial power, and for YEARS she has been using that power to try to influence her government into hurting vulnerable people, on purpose. And she has succeeded. THAT is the problem with her, and THAT is why spending money on her books is so dangerous, not because her books aged badly.
Critiquing her work is fine, of course (I personally was never a fan so I really don’t care) but you NEED to understand that fiction is not the main issue here. And I truly think acting like she’s the same as the rest of any giant list of ~problematic creators of the week~ waters down how dangerous she is.
someone hate fuck me please. i promise ill be a pretty, drooling, limp little doll for you while your cock kisses my cervix and you completely destroy my pussy
I've been dealing with having some self-harming ideations lately and that brought to mind an aspect of it that I don't hear talked about much; the phantom pains. Often when I get triggered into a self-harming state, I can "feel" the spots where I would end up doing it. It's as though they are a precursor to it and by completing the act, it just makes visible the pain that was already there. I don't know how common this is, but I figured I'd bring it to light in case others struggle with it too.

Panel 1: Kyra is clutching her head and Miss White asks her "What's wrong?" Kyra responds "I'm dealing with self-harm ideations again..."
Panel 2: We see a close up of her arms, her left hand is pointing at the spot on her right wrist, her hand is outstretched, but most importantly there are four dashed lines highlighted on her skin. She says "I can 'feel' where they would be. Like a phantom pain, there's nothing there, but my brain tells me there should be."
Panel 3: Kyra is hunched forward with her arms stretched out behind her, keeping back the looming Creature. She says "And then I have to contend with this A-hole egging me on. It's a rough journey."
Panel 4: Miss White throws her arm over Kyra's shoulder and they start walking. Miss White says "C'mon, let's go get you distracted for a bit." and Kyra says "Thank you. I[t] helps to know I'm not alone."

My Mom had a very interesting way of describing the difference of fronting in a system. I was always taught the car analogy when it comes to explaining fronting: The driver’s seat is front, passenger is co-front, backseats of co-con and headspace, while the trunk is dormancy.
But my mom brought up a better one. If Co-Front can also control the body and stuff, that means they also have a wheel on their side of the vehicle. So Mom related it to a plane, with controls on both sides so both pilots get control of the plane. The staff is where the co-con are, first and second class seating is headspace in a sense, and where there is luggage, there is dormancy.

Whatever ridiculous shit the US gets up to, the UK always gleefully follows in full fascist lock-step.
Shocking absolutely no-one, women's rights are being eroded in this country too.
Remember, TERFs, you're next on the block every time you vote against trans rights. Why not vote to help us and keep yourselves second in the queue?
lobber need a fucking break from it all
i hate driving. here are the laws! if you break them there will be consequences! except youre also expected to break the law just a little bit. people will get mad at you if you dont. you dont have right of way but the person who does is waving you forward for some reason. here's the speed limit! it's not the speed limit, the actual speed limit is that plus ~5-10. the light is green but you're in the turning lane. can you go? should you have gone just then? the person behind you is honking at you. there's a weird noise coming from your engine; if you try to do the right thing and get it checked out, will you get scammed? you are driving a 1-2 ton metal machine rocketing at speeds unknown to humankind for most of history. around a million people die in car accidents every year; that's about one person every thirty seconds. if you take that seriously and try to drive safely then people get mad at you.

Enjoy it while it lasts. This will be banned before you can say "trans equality".
A fucking womb transplant, what an incredible thing. Fair play to all involved. A positive news story amidst all the dire shite.
