There Is This Fascinating Thing That Comes Out In Some Branches Of Tma Discourse That Reveals A Kind

there is this fascinating thing that comes out in some branches of tma discourse that reveals a kind of fucky mindset that a lot of people have, and it's the idea that if an action is justified then all of its negative outcomes can be written off as negligible, or the vice versa, that if something had negative outcomes then it couldn't have been justified. I see this a lot in georgie discourse, where people can't seem to hold at once in their heads that it is completely within a person's rights to cut off a friend for the sake of their own safety and it can (and most likely will) really suck for that friend and make them feel done wrong by and abandoned while leaving them worse off with less support. the core weirdness of that awful melanie take was the idea that she didn't have the right to be traumatized or feel upset at jon for the bullet surgery because there was no other way, which is a take so antithetical to everything tma tries to express and to, like, the everyday realities of real life that it genuinely boggles my mind. really How do you end up thinking like that. I want to know.

That problem being, there is a history of their depiction of sapphic relationships being toxic, abusive and deadly. And I wouldn’t have as much of an issue with it, if it was a once or twice kind of thing… but this is a pattern.

I wasn't planning on releasing this meta piece, but I got into a really salty space this morning and here we are.

I will publicly share it in a few weeks, but if you enjoy my work and would like access sooner, you may consider becoming a patron!

When i say words of affirmation is my love language what i mean is "You are a living chronicle of terror.You are prepared. You are ready. You are marked. The power of the Ceaseless Watcher flows through you, and the time of our victory is here."

i just think jonelias is abt sexless sex i think we all need to cool it w the e rated fics bc the most compelling thing abt them is how they're staring at each other from opposite ends of a comically large dining table and that's sex to them
