a lot of my autism masking is just making myself more palatable for other people and my therapist said "does spock make himself 'more palatable' for others?" and had me promise to keep unmasking like:

crazy that you can make an oc with Issues and not even realize until months later that those are actually Your Issues

learned today (after googling it upon seeing the "Sadomasochism Brothers" post) that masochism was named by a psychiatrist who had read Leopold von Sacher-Masoch's erotic writing and was like "I feel safe in concluding that this man had Fucked-Up Freak Sex Disorder, which now until forever will bear his name", while von Sacher-Masoch was still alive. there are accounts of von Sacher-Masoch being like "bro what the fuck" about this

The only thing seperating lovecraft enthusiasts and hentai addicts is the blurry line between fear and arousal.

I endeavor to abolish this line completely, leading us to a new age.

one thing visitors comment on is how much Belphie groans in his sleep. like we'll all be sitting in the living room, and they'll say "what in the world is that loud ominous groaning," and then they'll follow the noise to a heating vent where Belphie is upside down on a sheepskin rug, groaning like a christmas ghoul

[a TikTok video by @deafcarguy. A man with a beard faces the camera. You can see him from the chest up. He is wearing an orange shirt and a backwards baseball cap. He is drinking from a beer can.

He signs with one hand at the camera, with text overlain:

"I'm reading a horror book in Braille"

"Something terrible's about to happen"

The camera zooms in on his face starting intently as he signs

"I can feel it"

He takes a big drink and the video ends]

I just found out VLC media player lets you do this????

yeah actually we removed the big bad wolf from the little red riding hood story because portraying violence against minors is really messed up. yeah. yeah also the wolf narrative was really predatory and had had some icky grooming vibes and a fable meant for literal children shouldn’t have implied p*do shit and grape so now little red riding hood goes into the woods and nothing happens and she goes to grandma’s house. don’t worry our kids will still stick to the path and know not to follow to wolves implicitly because we told them to and children should always do as their told. just like little red riding hood does now.

I literally played The Wolf in the musical Into The Woods in college and one woman started saying weird shit about me because she thought I was playing the role "a little too well"

Luckily, the director was sane, and when he heard about that he pulled her aside and was like "girl he's supposed to play the role well. That's the fucking point"

And meanwhile, the girl who was playing Little Red was actually glad, even relieved, when she saw I was cast as The Wolf, because we knew each other and she felt safe with me and trusted that I wouldn't use the scene as an excuse to actually creep on her

All that to say, there really are people out there who will read Little Red Riding Hood, or even sign up to participate in an adaptation of the story, and go "ummm The Wolf is kind of problematic"
