That Buck without a butt

Sex is not essential. You can live without it. Full stop.

Not having sex isn't shameful or a sign of failure. It also doesn't make anyone boring.

You are not entitled to having sex with anybody and nobody is entitled to having sex with you.

Sex is not what makes someone an adult.

Nobody's worth is defined by how much sex they have or don't have.

Sex is not equally important to everyone.

You can have fulfilling and happy relationships without sex.

You should only have sex on your own terms, not because you feel like you owe it to someone, or because you feel like you'd be incomplete without it.

Know your boundaries around sex and be firm about them. Know how to respect other people's boundaries.

The previous point also applies when it comes to discussing sex. If someone doesn't wanna talk about it or hear about it you have to back down.

i was wrong.

Hi, my name is Allien. I am doing research on fandoms toxicity and the chaotic historic moments they make (think rainbow dash jar)

Unfortunately as someone who is not in one myself... I need the aid of the..

(sparkle) Tumblr Fandom Communities! (sparkle)

Even if your not in fandom, or a 'toxic' fandom your voice counts!

Linked above is a forum I made to help me gather statistics for my project, and if I can gather enough it will likely end up in a

Video Essay about Fandom!

Also if you know of communities of people that are in fandoms please cross post the link <3 Danke

- Section 1 is too long and too out of context. People are various circles of sociability: are we talking work, family, friends? You could pick at least three answers per questions. Plus, when a long list of emotions, I think it's better if you go "list the emotions you felt the most strongly this past week". The way it is could make someone drop ouf of boredom.

- Questions about the fandoms are too oriented. Of course, you have a subject, but you are actively feeding into confirmation bias. You can only obtain a "yes all fandoms are HEAVILY toxic" with these kind of questions.

When you have a hunch, you can announce it ("I want to study the level of toxicity in fandoms") but your questions should not REFLECT it. So you should frame your questions as:

"What is the most recent and strongest emotion you felt this week regarding your fandom(s)?"

"Has your experience in fandoms changed overtime?"

"What makes you want to join a fandom? To leave it?"

"When you find a negative post, what do you do?"

The goal here is to allow the people to think about negativity or positivity freely. If every question is framed around negativity, you will get answers because they will trigger the respondant's memory. But really, that will say nothing about their experience in general or the level of negativity they encounter daily.

I don't want a printing subscription, or a typing subscription. Hell, I'll go find an old typewriter before I buy into that sell. I'll even learn to make ink and paper.

I don't want to "subscribe and save" to something. I don't want everything to automatically renew. I most certainly do not want to give an AI assistant access to ANYTHING of mine (including my thoughts, questions, or ideas), but especially not to my bank account.

I don't want glasses that tell me what things are, I'd rather ask someone who knows. I don't want a robot to summarize the key points of my group chat, I want to talk to my friends and family for myself.

I want picnics in the park, phones put away in bags and not thought about unless they're actually needed. I want water fights in summer, not water shortages to feed the machine. I want a colorful house, not a smart one. I want care, not convenience.

If one day Microsoft locks me out of my laptop because I refuse to pay for a subscription, I'll go to the library and check out a few books to figure out how to reprogram it. I'll learn fucking Linux, if I have to. Hell, I'm considering learning it now, with the way the world's going.
