- Chain mail, “reblog this or..” posts etc. don’t work. They’re not real. Nothing bad will happen if you don’t forward that mail or reblog that post. 

- “If you don’t reblog this, you’re a bad person” is a lie. You’re not a bad person for not clicking a button. 

- You are allowed to unfollow blogs that post triggering contents. 

…there isn’t a court on this earth that would force that father to donate that kidney. They wouldn’t force him to donate even a single drop of blood.

Why? Because we, as people, generally hold to Bodily Autonomy - aka, the idea that the person who’s body it is, is the ultimate authority on what can happen to it. Even if it means pain or death to others.

It why people with major health conditions get tattoos sometimes about not wanting to be resucitated if they have a heart attack. It’s why we don’t harvest organs if your driver’s lives doesn’t have the ‘organ donor heart’. It’s why people create advance directives even when they’re young and healthy.

We believe that a persons body is their own, and they decide what to do with it.

After all, you never see the Red Cross strap me down and force me to donate blood, even though I’m a perfect donor and the Red Cross is severely low on blood. That would be insane!

And this is what abortion ultimately comes down to. We allow everyone to have bodily autonomy…but for some reason we deny that right to pregnant women? Or a regular, daily basis?

We would never force a person to donate blood or an organ, and argue “well it won’t affect you all that much.” That would be ridiculous. To even suggest the idea is ludicrous.

But these statements and questions come up all the time during abortion discussions, because we simply don’t accept that pregnant women are people who deserve the same rights and everyone else. As soon as that woman is pregnant, we seem to stop viewing her as a person, and start viewing her as a host.

That’s why politicians are referring pregnant women as “earthen vessels” while the fetus is an “eternal soul” - the fetus is allowed to be a person and have rights, but the pregnant woman is just a vessel. She’s not a person. She doesn’t have a soul.

And I reject the argument that as soon as a person becomes pregnant, they suddenly forfeit all their rights and bodily autonomy.

I don’t think I actually have to spell this out

but there will be no prophesying, speculating, speaking into existence, etc about next year

The original tweet summarizes it pretty well. Fanfic tends to be popular among certain types of neurodivergent people (aka people most likely to read excessively as a child, and have burnout as an adult) for the same reasons that we tend to hyperfixate–neurochemical signaling (I hope I’m using that phrase correctly). What I mean is, for people who are really dependent on changes in dopamine/serotonin/neurotransmitter levels, who have low levels or wonky neural reward systems (perhaps the most common types of neurodivergence)…people like us rely on dependable external sources of those neurochemicals. In order to function, we spend a lot of our free time trying to level out our brain chemistry using things that can reliably bring us a steady stream of joyful moments (rewards) without costing too much of the mental effort that is already in short supply. 

significantly: the investment of reading has to be balanced with a steady “return on investment”–and this return has to start fairly quickly. because again, we don’t have a lot of attention/energy to invest on tiring things. we have perpetual “low batteries” in that regard.

that doesn’t mean these stories are “simple,” or that they lack complexity or value–only that the reward has to come in short regular intervals, and it has to have a low “upfront cost.” these stories are only “easy” to read in the sense that the effort we put into them is rewarded in a timely manner. which is why fanfic stories are so perfectly formulated for neurodivergent readers–they are often beautifully written, but skip a lot of the upfront costs (of introducing new characters, of world-building, of getting the audience emotionally connected to the story elements).

the nature of fanfiction is that the reader has a pre-existing relationship with this world and these characters. that–combined with the shorter average length of fics–means that fan fics very quickly start rewarding the reader in a way that traditional fiction struggles to. that’s not a bad thing! and maybe it’s something more traditionally published writers should be paying attention to.
