kink-adjacent political humor

Skip if so desired. NSFW. CW: Dark humor, involving Velveeta Voldie.

Edited to add: I've taken out the second bit of this, so there are no longer the more detailed hypothetical references to assault beneath the cut. I went too far for even myself there, at least aloud/in text. Sorry, folks.


Me, on Cheeto Benito telling governors that they should dominate protesters:

Well, I always knew he was a member of the shitty, unsafe doms club.


How the {bleeeeeep} do I even tag this?!

I haven't read the book or seen the movie as a matter of principle, because I've had to listen to too many friends ranting about what a TERRIBLE example of the culture that book is. Kind of like the Tangerine Toddler as an example of adulthood.

Re book and movie: Nor have I. Unfortunately for me, my mother and at least one sister *adore* the book. Trying to explain how abysmal an example of BDSM culture, not to mention relationships in general it is gets me approximately nowhere.

Remember Twilight? Team Edward v. Team Jacob? Same deal, different focus. UGH.

Literally, IIRC; it started out as Twilight fanfic.

It did. Twilight itself is bad enoug has relationship examples for tweens (especially tween girls), but 50 Shades takes it to whole new sublevels of the human sewer. To be perfectly clear, NOT because of the kink, but because there's grooming, gaslighting, abuse of many kinds, and it's billed as twooo wuuuv, which kicks it down several stories lower. Oh, wait, Twilight does that, too.

I'm now grateful, all over again, that I've never touched either franchise. Blehrgh. :(

I read all of "Twilight" in a car, in less than 45 minutes. On a dare. I'm not sure whether I was nauseated by the car ride or the story

I see I am preaching to the choir 😉
