Shout-out To Proshippers/darkshippers Like Me Who Partake In The Dark Media We Consume, Not Because We've

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.

Honestly? I don't think they want to be taken seriously, or at least don't care about it. Antis strategy seems to mainly be harassment, shame, and vigilante attacks from what I can tell. Sure, sometimes they ( mass ) report stuff, but none of their actions seem to show them professionally dealing with the presumable predators ( fx. they mass report which can clog systems, they harass the predators which can have them attempt to delete evidence/run, etc. )

Even if law enforcement and platforms are unreliable, and systems to get actual predators dealt with is shit at times, their actions still do more harm than good by fx. messing shit up for law enforcement that are actually doing stuff by making things more messy/chaotic, having people harm themselves due to their harassment no matter if they're innocent or not, etc.

I doubt they actually care about getting predators behind bars with how they act anyway. Their actions more so says they want to harm people they find disgusting, all the while hiding behind the "protecting the kids" argument, rather than do actual good for the world.

Either way, what I'm trying to say is that antis usually seem to prefer to harass and/or "own" people they believe to be predators, rather than want/care about seriously dealing with them in the best/least messy way(s) possible.

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.

Anyway, I was at a game expo here recently, and while there I got 2 keychains. At first I was only planning on getting a Laios keychain, but I was worried he'd get lonely so after a bit I also bought a Falin one from the same artist.

I love the autism siblings so much, though, like oml. Dungeon Meshi is literally so peak I can't wait for season 2 of the anime.

Also, speaking of Dungeon Meshi, I'm fairly certain most of- if not the entire cast- would be proship. Especially Marcille. There is literally no way she's not profic/proship considering the type of magic she specializes in in canon if you ask me. I mean, the woman literally says "magic doesn't have morality," which is a statement that can easily be translated over to fiction.

plzzzz link the fic mentioned in this post I need it 🙏

I mean, it's a yandere!Sunday ( Honkai: Star Rail ) x vampire!reader oneshot, but sure lmao. As much as I am possessive of my F/Os, I'm not gonna gatekeep good art/writing.

Be sure to read the CW first to make sure nothing triggering is in the fic, though, cuz there's more dark themes than just semi-erotic blood sucking.

I just want to say thanks for your blog! It's not usual to find stuff like this!

It's no problem, really! I mean, I literally just like to yap for most of my post, sometimes partake in the selfship stuff by either reblogging posts or making my own imagines, and also like to keep the balance between discourse talk and positivity/acceptance.

Like, personally if I partake in too much discourse, then my mental health start to decline, even if I only stay on the proship side of things. That's kind of why I tend to reblog/post positivity, too, every now and then.

Though I do wonder what you mean with "not usual to find stuff like this," since from what I've seen there's a good handful of blogs like mine. Idk maybe I'm wrong lmao.

My best guess is that you're referring to the proship/pro-kink/pro-para positivity and/or the fact my blog is selfship and proship at the same time, since those are decently rare I think? Idk feel free to elaborate/correct me or not, anon.

As someone who uses TikTok, I can confirm that TikTok's censorship is kinda ass. Sometimes it's needlessly strict, and other times you can get away with things you just shouldn't really get away with ( like harassment that clearly goes against TOS. )

This means that at times you can say stuff like rape, CSEM, etc just fine. As I've mentioned multiple times on my blog already: I've said rape, kill, porn, etc a few times in comments on a few different TikToks and have yet to get any warnings for it- or any warnings at all on my account.

I've also seen creators say words like "rape" in TikToks on my FYP up until as recent as just here today. Literally saw a TikTok with 31k likes that used the word "rape" ( and a few other "no-no" words that I can't remember ) in it without any censoring.

So yeah, the person replying to your Twitter post wasn't even founded in their claim about censorship when it comes to TikTok, OP.

Editing this rq: I went onto TikTok to find an account of a woman that consistently says words like "rape" in her videos ( some of said videos gaining 100k+ views. ) Look up @/lexxxmaria on TikTok ( without the / ). She reads rancid takes of fx. pro-lifers and incels which often include words like "kill" and "rape," which she does nothing to censor neither the spoken- or written word. Only words I've seen her censor are the ones about genitals aka stuff like "dick."

I ended up making this post which got like...way more traction than I ever wanted. But ppl are missing the point so bad so I'm venting about it. Like this one person??

They're saying shit like "do you live on twitter?" As they are CONSTANTLY bringing up tiktok on every single comment they make. Bitch, do you live on tiktok?? What are we on RIGHT NOW? We are on twitter. I am talking about twitter (because I saw a post ON TWITTER where someone said "There is so much grape in BL") and ppl using those terms irl. Also I don't think it's good to be like "✨️cheese pizza✨️" on tiktok when you're talking about CSEM. Someone also brought up a good point that ppl on tiktok were using "borrowing mascara" as a euphemism for rape. Like?? Also, idk how to tell y'all this, but some victims would like to mute and words so they don't have to see it. If you're making 5000 fucking euphemisms for rape or CSEM, how are victims supposed to mute them all? And also, if you're worried about censorship so badly, you could say C*em or r@p3 or SOMETHING besides child corn. Ffs.
