Never Really Understood The Appeal Of Vampires, Until I Read An X Reader Fanfic Where The Reader Was

Never really understood the appeal of vampires, until I read an x reader fanfic where the reader was the vampire.

New kink unlocked I guess.

Update on this: I'd commented on a TikTok just yesterday where the creator was talking about how censoring on TikTok is stupid, and how it waters down the situations that are actually going on.

The comment I left on the TikTok featured words such as kill, rape, and porn without any censoring, and I have yet to receive any warnings about it.

Maybe it has something to do with the app picking up on the words used in certain contexts ( fx. threats, ) but you can certainly say them in some cases either way.

I was rereading my previous post about the TikTok censorship culture/thing, and it made me wonder what part of it isn't actually censorship, but in reality the algorithm doing it's thing.

I mean, it's already known how flaky and unreliable the TikTok censoring is at times, and also known that the algorithm on TikTok can get really specific, too.

So if that's the case, who's to say that the censoring "trend" isn't just people engaging more with the censored content, which then pushes more censored content to those people?

Who's to say that it isn't because they use those censored words in comments/videos, which is then picked up on by the app, and then has the algorithm show more content using that language to them?

Watch time could also be a factor since TikTok also picks up on that. So if a word like "rape" makes a person uncomfortable and scroll as a result, then that could also affect it in one way or another.

I don't know lmao maybe I'm just reaching, or this is a really obvious thing I'm realizing only now.

Just saw a person in a TikTok comment section with all the "proship" emoji combos. People were saying to check the person's search history and hard drive, but in the same comment section replies the person said they only use all the combos to mock proshippers.

Idk I just find it kinda comical that antis didn't even stop to think "hey, maybe this person using 6+ proship emoji combos in their username is trolling" which ended up with the emoji combo person being harrassed by, like, 10+ people if not more.

Shout-out to proshippers/darkshippers like me who partake in the dark media we consume, not because we've been through the abuse/trauma depicted, but because what we've already been through doesn't feel "valid enough."

I promise you, you aren't bad for having an urge to go through "worse." It's a natural response your brain has when your pain and hurt doesn't feel validated enough. I can guarantee you that whatever you've been through- even if "small"- isn't something to simply be ignored or treated as lesser.

You were hurt, and you deserve the acknowledgement and support for that like any other survivor does. Sometimes people and society just tend to overlook trauma that isn't on the extreme end, even if all trauma is just that no matter the "degree": trauma.

I know it probably doesn't mean much coming from a stranger on the internet, but I'm proud of you for finding a coping mechanism where you don't go out and hurt yourself. Personally I'd rather have you, or anyone in general, consume your darkfiction, than go and seek out abuse in real life.

I just found out that I ( most likely ) have an allergy for grapes, which I think is gonna be really kinda funny if an anti tells me they wish I'll be "graped."

So, let me get this right:

Being attracted to fictional serial murderers is okay,

Being attracted to fictional terrorists is okay,

Being attracted to fictional monsters is okay,

But being attracted to fictional children is wrong?

Hm, noted.
