"scrub d*ddy sponges are problematic! 'd*ddy' is a trigger word for a lot of victims and d*ddy kink is immoral! i need to hide its label on the store shelf. it shouldn't be in public!" is not even the GOOFIEST thing i sincerely believed as an anti- but it is, by far, my favorite.
The consequences your words or actions have until it’s too late.
I’m so sorry for her family’s loss, and sorry she hurt so badly till the end. At the end of the day, she was human and someone who really loved Alien Stage the way that we all in this fandom do.
To constantly harass someone over fucking media. Media is supposed to bring us together and we’re supposed to have a fun time with our common interest together as a community. Instead this fandom continues to harass people over differing opinions/tastes and doesn’t think about
As of an hour ago, it was updated that she passed away.
I think we all need to be reminded, especially in Alien stage Twitter where harassing people happens so often—
That there are real people behind these accounts. People who feel and hurt just as we all do. +
the first part of your message did not come through, but even this tells me enough. if you're staying in a friendship primarily because you're afraid of being harassed, exposed, or socially punished, that's not a healthy bond. that's fear based-attachment, and that's coercive.
The experience of being a bubbly outgoing autistic girl and constantly being told you’re annoying and weird and growing up to be a miserable hollow shell of your former self who everyone perceives as a depressive introvert when that’s not who I am at all

In puritanical Christian theology, ‘evil ideas’ are like seeds that one can plant in the minds of others.
Thinking abt that evil idea ‘waters’ the seed, growing a crop of evil thoughts.
The harvest will be either
a) evil deeds, or
b) spreading evil ideas to others.

i'm sorry but i can't keep quiet about this. why would you draw this with this intent. why would you say something like this.
do you fucking people hear yourselves talk???
"Is it okay to ship them??" "Is this trope bad??"
I'm begging y'all to stop asking for "permission" to enjoy fiction. You know yourself. You know that you're a good person. You know that enjoying a ship or trope won't change that. Please just ship, write, and draw what you want.
Wishing every "anti" who is publicly called out by their "friends" for secretly liking taboo fictional stuff a very "please take this chance to leave the cult".
Make new, better friends. Be free.
@heartsalty i sorta feel bad for these ppl, honestly. last i checked, all of my ex-friends from my 20's "anti" phase are still militant antis, and it's been well over half a decade, they're also 30+, some older than me. i'm the only one who got out, and it was truly miserable before i did.
whenever a gothic thing comes out and we get purity discourse about it, I often think about how a lot of the discourse around the brontë sisters was about how their works were too “coarse” and spoke of topics not suitable for refined ladies. we really haven’t changed.
people have been moralizing the gothic since the gothic began, you aren’t woke, you are just a puritan who learned how to speak with the cadence of leftist ideology
Did You Know? They say that monster in the cave upon the hill only experiences pain as a tool of manipulation, and that any form of it is unjustified anyway too
