artists either wear ugly ass comfort clothes or The Most Extra Shit i’ve never met an artist who just wears jeans and a nice shirt i’m convinced they don’t exist
I don’t know you op so I’m sorry to add this to your post but it’s a relevant story that still fucks me up to this day.
My sister lives in Brooklyn and has a bunch of hipster friends of course. One of her roommates organized this potluck for Christmas while I was visiting my sister. So everyone brings in good food that takes actual effort to make but then this one fucker just comes in with a raw onion. And he puts the onion out to be served and I’m sitting there like what in the fucking world did you just find that on the street walking here or something. And I was waiting for people to be like “dude fuck off I made a quiche and you think it’s chill to just being an onion?” But no. I guess this hipster group wanted to act unfazed as hell so they all just start talking about how they love eating raw onions. I’m ready to die and then the roommate slices the onion in front of everybody and then the guests start chewing down. They were eating it like it was chips or some shit. So I gave in and took a bite and it’s not a sweet onion. It’s a plain ass bitter acidic notoriously terrible when raw onion. For the rest of the party I just sat on the couch silently mesmerized by the power of groupthink because it felt like I had accidentally walked into the orgy scene in Eyes Wide Shut.
Stop censoring the words people are using to blacklist, you are actually exposing people to the word/subject you think you’re protecting them from. If rape is on my blacklist and you have an in depth account of rape and you used r*pe for everything, I WILL NOW BE EXPOSED TO IT because my blacklist DIDN’T BLOCK IT because YOU CHANGED THE WORD.
^^^^^^ To add: Censoring is only really necessary when it comes to a slur your cannot reclaim, but you still need to at least tag the post with the themes so anyone who has, say, antiblack violence blacklisted for instance, won’t be exposed to what it is that triggers them.
I would really appreciate it if people could reblog this instead of ignoring it because this IS becoming a wide spread problem. I have had several panic attacks over the last month due to things that are on my blacklist not being caught specifically because of people censoring the black list word. Blacklists can pick up on words inside posts, but they can’t pick up on those words when you change one or more letters to a star.
Stop censoring words in posts that aren’t slurs, you are not protecting us from exposure, you are forcibly exposing us to it. You are doing precisely the opposite of helping us.
