Is There A Way To Ask What It Looks Like When You Get Arrested, Taken To A Police Station And Bail Yourself
Is there a way to ask what it looks like when you get arrested, taken to a police station and bail yourself out as research for a story without sounding like a massive asshole?

Celebrimbor being Tolkien's most "Eve" like character while Sauron is coded as the Serpent is something I think about a lot.
Hey runners (and walkers)! Thought this might be helpful :)
Okay, but like... As an aro person who actually has problems with connecting to people in my life in emotionally acceptable ways, can we not turn something that is more often than not a symptom of an underlying mental disorder into a pride thing? It's just kinda giving that whole... Pop-ification of neurodivergency and queerness that is sold to young people online that I'm... Actually kinda sick of. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that not experiencing platonic love towards your friends and family makes you bad or broken. Mentally ill aromantics are not any less worthy of respect, and I am saying that as one. But the way to talk about something that is most likely just the most easily recognizable and categorizable symptom of a deeper underlying serious problem is probably not through the language of normalization.
hi reminder that aromantic people don’t have to compensate for their lack of romantic attraction with familial or platonic attraction. “aros still love their friends!!” sometimes they do. other times they don’t, and that’s okay! using non-rose attraction as a stand-in for romance invalidates loveless, afamilial, and apl folks. we don’t have to make up for our existence :3
Is it just me, or are the characters of Vetinari, Vimes and Moist Von Lipwig supposed to be metaphors for the ideals of how ethical and smart the systems of politics, law enforcement and capitalism respectively could hypothetically be?
