last hope

The act of simply watching people have sex is itself morally neutral. That's all porn is.

it isn’t, though. sorry if I’m missing a joke here but… it really, really isn’t.

It is. There is nothing wrong with watching people have sex. The morality of it depends on the context (buying porn from sex workers to watch is good, revenge porn is bad, for example), but watching people fuck? That's morally neutral. It's just watching some activities.

remember: a big part of what "sex work is work" means is "let sex workers have workers' protections"

this is such a simple point but god it needs to be repeated. i keep seeing even young, progressive people say "porn rots peoples brain" no!! misoginy rots peoples brains!! a video of people having sex consensually is literally fine!!

and not to become wokezilla but it has me sat the way bigotry and all of bad things a person can do continue to be Explained Away by speculating the bigot must have brain damage it be from porn or whatever, its not that bigotry benefits the bigot in society, it couldnt be that, otherwise everybody (including me!) could become a bigot, and im Morally Pure and Leftist, so bigots must have some immutable Sick In The Head quality that actually makes them act this way, it be from birth or from consumption of media that I Personally find immoral

“packmate” is a very good word to describe how i feel about some people. like we’re more than friends in my eyes but it’s not romantic you’re just. my person and im #keeping you. because you’re in my pack. wags my tail

personally i do not prefer when stories engaging with complicated topics attempt to make themselves good educational resources on said complicated topics

and i understand that sometimes it's a very thin line between giving a realistic depiction of a serious topic and ending up in after-school special mode, but i also notice that no one is doing this when a character gets the flu (which kills many people every year) and PERSONALLY i don't love the patterns i'm vaguely sensing about which experiences can be depicted normally and which experiences must always be a learning opportunity

can we get 36 hours a day? not for any productive purposes i just want to finish my to watch & to read list in this lifetime . also probably get enough sleep

not being attracted to men in fandom is really isolating sometimes

yeah, you're mommy's good little plot device, aren't you? keep pushing the narrative forward, i'm going to climax and denouement

your ex is a narcissist? so he must struggle with close friendships, right--oh, he's respectful to his male friends? he only acts this way around women? that's crazy, they should invent a word for such a phenomenon

Something I absolutely love is not caving into the pressure of "you HAVE to watch popular gay show the writing is actually competent and they won't ruin it this time" and being like "hmmm I don't know... I watched popular gay show before and it turned bad..." only to much later get your door knocked on and it's your mutuals crestfallen and you get to be like "let me guess. it turned bad."

The energy on the dash... Let me guess

I have loved people i should’ve beaten with sticks instead LOL

dont cry ok? there is the sun and there isthe ocean and there are butch gay women

i forget that "blood and gore are hot" as an opinion is relatively normalized on tumblr and NOT in real life. #SOCIALBLUNDER
