Horror and its sister genres are pretty interesting from a standpoint of healthy consumption, because they’re the only genres I can think of that require aftercare.
Not only do you need to be in the right headspace to consume it, but you can’t go overboard with it no matter how fun it feels in the moment, and you really need to know when to take a step back and watch/read/play/talk about something lighter. And if you don’t practice safety with the genre, you risk genuinely hurting yourself.
I tend to liken Horror Communities to Kink Communities in their functionality for a lot of reasons, but this is a pretty interesting manifestation of that that I’ve never really seen people bring up before. Horror’s my favorite genre, and it means the world to me, but knowing when to take a breather is incredibly important to one’s health and experience of it.

More dog content while I’m working on my C!MCYT headcannons because Tumblr deleted them after I accidentally opened another tab to my friends and I’s group chat.

the rise in sex negativity amongst young queer people in recent years coinciding with the overall rise in conservative and particularly evangelical christian ideology is genuinely terrifying. i understand that unpacking ideas you've been taught since childhood is hard work but in the current political climate it's absolutely vital that you do not regurgitate queerphobic talking points (which queer people have been fighting against for decades). people are going to die, and it is our responsibility to minimise the damage, because governments and corporations sure as hell aren't going to.
I fixed it- my computer is just stupid and thought it’d be funny to give me the scare of my life last night

Something that always has bothered me in fanfics (or just any work of fiction period) is when the female main character is so insistent on trying to be anti-feminine. And I’m not saying if you’re a masculine woman or a gender non-conforming woman you should feel ashamed about not expressing femininity, you do what makes you feel comfortable and happy, but what I am saying is it always fucks with me how alienated it is in media.
comments like “(x) tried to get me to wear a dress, like that would ever happen” or “I don’t understand how they (another woman) can wear so much makeup” and other comments similar have never sat right with me because of the implications they have. The implication being because they (the character) doesn’t participate in feminine things such as wearing makeup or dresses is in some way better or more desirable than the women who do. But at the same time this also alienates women who participate in masculinity.
Typically these characters are just feminine enough to remind the audience they’re women and make them desirable, but just masculine enough to be different and worthy of being idolized. Because masculine women don’t retain the femininity these women in media display (not saying they can’t be feminine just saying their femininity isn’t represented in the media we consume) we often make fun of them for being hyper masculine.
But this also affects gender non conforming women, as they have been so romanticized and idealized when they aren’t able to meet the expectations our media has set up for them they’re scrutinized and attacked. Creating an endless cycle nobody can truly win.
TLDR; media romanticizes and depicts the wrong parts of women the wrong way and screw everyone over and it’s very disappointing.

I love my English lectures but one thing that genuinely upsets me is seeing how many works of Irish literature are claimed as or assumed to be “British literature”. Like Bram Stoker, Oscar Wilde and Seamus Heaney weren’t British artists...they were Irish. Why does Britain get to take credit for Irish pieces???
