That long post I keep meaning to write, with the photographs, the drabble for that meme, and those fanart things, and all that other stuff? Yeah, not this one. Not enough time in the day, and I needs mah sleep. Stupid impending Monday...

I will say, though, that after seschat and my's nitpicking of the latest X Men for its feminism fail, I've been ( Read more... )

I uh. I disagree with that opinion of trigger labels. D:

I mean, I can accept that that is a powerful statement and a powerful story for that person, but not all people react that way, not all people think that way, not all people live that way. And in saying I don't see this as a "your mileage may vary" thing, either, that person is saying that people who don't react and think and live that way should. Which is not an okay thing.

Because while I don't, myself, have any triggers that pop up in fiction often and strongly enough that I need to rely on warnings, I have come to accept that other people do. And I am familiar with the bad places a mind can go, and sometimes there is nothing good, nothing positive, nothing healing about confronting that abyss. Sometimes you don't have the resources to get in another staring contest with your own trauma. General-goes-for-some-people-but-not-all-people 'you'.

I'm the kind who deals with things by going, "Lalalala I can't hear you", basically, so I'm not down with the abyss-staring as a thing I'd want to do. And if people do want to stare at the abyss, it's not up to us to drag them there and throw them off the cliff.

..so, yeah, I agree with you. Even if I liked the post very much in a sort of "I wish I could have that sort of strength all the time" kind of way.

Also? *squishes Pyth* Long time no see! Hope you're doing okay ♥
