For authors, re: trigger and content warnings.
My middle kid and I were talking about content and “trigger” warnings in books. She said, from her perspective, if someone includes a trigger warning for something like suicide and self-harm, she can pretty much take for granted--
I have read so many fanfics that are amazing, why shouldn't the author be able to publish it (once being reworked to separate from fandom)? While this book that's being discussed may not be your cup of tea, the fandom could do with less negatively as a whole towards its creators.
@Jewels_ATX I have such a hard time sleeping at night my actual doctor told me it’s ok if I napped because at least I was sleeping at some point. Medically I tried EVERYTHING else.
@Linz1981@VaxxersAnti I questioned the same thing. I live in Bradford, never heard of her. I also know someone who did react to the vaccine which is rare who got treated at south lake with no issue, he was just told he couldn’t get the next one.
@VaxxersAnti There’s no such place as Brandford On. It’s either brantford or Bradford, wondering which she means. I’ve never heard of her though and I live in one of the two.
@Fievel131@BruceBa21417771 Used to work in travel and a lot of my former clients have purchased homes in Portugal and Spain for winter instead after selling everything they owned in FL. Older Canadians, worried about their kids and grandkids having to deal with anything there, especially health wise.
@seattlejohn@kylegriffin1 Pretty much, police harass them, then attorneys get to, they lose their support systems. It’s a dark hole, and maybe just maybe they win.
@Thiohna Thank you. Here’s hoping he gets caught and prosecuted but sadly, that doesn’t happen very often without further harassment of rape survivors.
Read one (1) damn book about the AIDS crisis I am fucking begging you.
1. No one knew what AIDS actually was or how it could be spread for at least a couple years. People were legitimately throwing everything at the wall to see if it stuck
@notcapnamerica Used to be a travel agent and people LOVED carnival because the prices were ridiculously low and then would come back with nothing but complaints. You get what you pay for, and their cruises used to start in the low hundreds but they expected 5 star luxury. SMDH
