I cannot see art of a child without immediately questioning the artist's intentions. And this goes even for art that is clearly not problematic (e.g. an artist who wanted to draw their own child). Like, if I have something like that, I'll drop my suspicions, but until I do, I just can't help but worry that it's some kind of fetish art. Ugh.

(This especially goes for furry art. Human art is easier to make those distinctions on.)

Jade just described me as someone who built a life out of learning things that won't be useful to me, and I must say I am devastated by how accurate that is

Dear anyone looking to be a professor or who is a professor:
I understand not accepting things like .wps or .odt for reports, but if you don't accept .pdf and instead require .doc or .docx, fuck you.
Sincerely,
Kat, who just wrote an entire report in LaTeX then had to rename the PDF output to .pdf.docx in order to be able to submit it

This post brought to you by Noralities' latest video, "I'm Worried About Cancel Culture" which is nowhere near as awful as the title would imply and is actually about problematic media and how we handle it.

Alright, moratorium on "cancel culture" and related terms. It's used in too many different ways by different people, some trying to call out shitty people, others who have been called out on their shittiness and don't want to apologize. It's a meaningless terms, and we need to stop fucking using it. Say what you fucking mean, and if you still have to resort to these terms to hide what you mean, then perhaps you're one of the aforementioned shitty folks.

Before you ask, yes, one of those places was in describing smegma, a term it had in bold.

This medical language textbook that I have describes "a white, cheesy discharge" multiple times in different chapters and I gotta say I am really not okay with that
