I've hated that "un-alive" filtering since it started. Because my pretentious ass read 1984 and Brave New World when I was 16. Words like "suicide", "rape", "death", etc, these shouldn't be censored. These are words that describe actions and states of being. They're fucking unpleasant words, but you know, life is sometimes fucking unpleasant. Hiding the word doesn't magically make the bad thing go away. It makes you afraid to talk about it. It makes it a forbidden subject. It locks people who need to talk about it in a closet, like a fucking wife who has an opinion in 1925.

it's good that we're tagging tws but guys. come on, stop replacing letters of the word with symbols. it's just fucking stupid?? you think you can hide from human phenomenons that are inevitably a part of society?? they're terrible things, i do agree, but what do you think would happen if one day you stepped into the real world where you're no longer being treated like a baby and protected from these horrifying words, huh? grow up.
