The Force Is Strong In My Family.

Y'know when you hear someone talk about their “guilty pleasure” and how it’s always something pretty benign? Like, “My guilty pleasure is reading erotica,” or “I love to watch sappy rom-coms; it’s my guilty pleasure,” or “Netflix is such a guilty pleasure–I binge-watched that entire show last night!”

Can we stop?

There shouldn’t be something inherently guilt-worthy about reading romance novels, erotica, young adult, or any other genre. Just like there shouldn’t be an guilt about preferring one type of music, or movie, or sport, or whatever, over another.

You don’t need to feel guilty about it!

Can we, instead, use the term “guilty pleasure” for actual things we shouldn’t be doing? Like…when I eat dairy or gluten… That is 110% a guilty pleasure. I shouldn’t do it. I know I shouldn’t do it. I’m going to regret it later, but right now I’m going to enjoy the heck out of this cheesecake.

I’m tired of society telling me I should be ashamed of enjoying romance and sex and “girly” things. (Because it always seems to be those types of things that are our “guilty pleasures”) So… no, it’s not a guilty pleasure that I watch Pride & Prejudice four or five times a year, or that I devoured an entire polyam erotica series, or that I like to paint my nails, or that I listen (and sing along) to Disney soundtracks. Those are just things I like to do. There’s nothing wrong with any of them.

the take that “enemies to lovers doesn’t have to involve violence!!!” is so boring. knives to the throat or don’t bother

LOKI’S HAIR - 1st EPISODE › request by @batwoman-of-themyscira

When Emily Brönte said "You said I killed you. Haunt me then."

and when M.L Rio said "Here's the thing about lust: you don't have to like each other. Ever heard of hate sex?"

and when Achilles said  “There are no bargains between lion and men. I will kill you and eat you raw.”

and when Oscar Wilde said "Everything in the world is about sex except sex.  Sex is about power."

and when Donna Tartt said "There was a horrible, erratic thumping in my chest, as if a large bird was trapped inside my ribcage and beating itself to death."

?????????

Those are purely raw emotions.

Passion, love, panic, power and death are an insane combination.
