GO OFF BESTIE

I’m am utterly obsessed with them

i HATE self-censorship for a lot of reasons, but being in crisis work makes it even more frustrating. who are you censoring for? like i am being so fr, WHO are you censoring for? have you even thought it through? people who have been raped know that they have been raped. if someone attempts suicide or is grieving someone who did, saying "sewer slide" isn't going to protect them from any of the feelings. a murder victim's family isn't going to feel better bc you said "unalived" instead of murdered. if anything, it's just extremely invalidating and othering. it's saying "what happened to you is so bad that i won't even say the word," which is NOT trauma-informed care. you are not protecting survivors/victims when you self-censor. the ONLY things you protect when you self-censor are the puritanical ideologies that are being encouraged by rich fascists who want your money and obedience

here’s a meme in the meantime (based on on my last fandom adventure 🙄🤣)

Fandom: Romione has emotional intimacy, trust and loyalty. Hinny has the same humour and the same vision for the future.

Me: Emotional intimacy? Ron and Hermione spent half the series hurting each other and calling it “banter”.

Loyalty? Ron walked away during a war. Hermione stayed.

Shared humour? One cheap joke about a tattoo is not a deep emotional connection. 😂

the therapy:
