Constant Writers Block

(5/???)

ao3 is against censorship, thus it allows smut without plot and taboo contents that are written in ways that glorify and/or romanticize the taboo things. that is also why people love ao3.

person : hey i used to be a bigot/abuser but i made active efforts to be a better person and i'm now not that person anymore

comments : ok do you want a pat on the back for the bare fucking minimum. fuck you. evil irredeemable person

like you realize that people can be raised into harmful ideologies and not question them until later in life and that it takes introspection and active efforts to understand your harmful actions and make change to your behavior right

it may be the bare minimum for civil behaviour, but actually getting yourself out of harmful mindsets is fucking hard. stop pretending it isn't. you are not immune to propaganda. you're not infallible.

edit : heads up, i turned notifs for this off because there's just too many to deal with- maybe i'll turn them back on when things calm down

the good news: I know my process enough to recognize this as the slump that I hit in everything I write when it's like three-quarters-ish done

the bad news: the only way out is through

the good news: I do know the way out!
