"I'd never hurt you, precious," says the gentle domme who kidnapped you and keeps you completely helpless and dependent on her.
True to her word, she never hurts you. It doesn't matter that she thinks she's protecting you from everyone else. You're much too delicate to be allowed out, or for anyone else to even see. What if they did something to hurt you? Better to keep you safely locked away.

People take online shitposts way too seriously as indicative of the way people actually see the character. The stupid meme that briefly crossed someone's mind while they were bored at school or work and the masterpiece longfic untangling every bit of thier psychological damage they hide behind a brave face are gonna contain much different levels of analysis, y'all

“… I will throw this pancake at you.”
Tumblr media
I know it may sound crazy… but Han Jisung got a little too drunk last night. He told everyone about your birthmark on your inner thigh that was like a button to one of your weak spots. Which is fine. TMI of course but whatever.
But… he MAY HAVE also told them about how you love when he Hard Doms you and makes you do absurdly embarrassing things. Like call your mom while he’s fucking you doggy style. 😳
Tumblr media
Mans woke up remembering everything and was trying his best to apologize by cornering you in the kitchen while you made the two of you breakfast. He thinks he’s slick with it the way he’s groggily sauntering over to you. He’s cute. But you’re still fucking pissed at his big mouth.
———
“Han fucking Jisung if you don’t stop trying to flirt with me right now I will throw this pancake at you.”
“Babe, I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to let that thought slip out.”
“You can make it up to me later. Use that big mouth for something that’ll make me less mad.”
“Yes ma’am.”
Tagging @lyramundana because she is bae 🥰

They were, 90, and were living out their days
Tumblr media
on the west side of the city next to where they got engaged
Tumblr media
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
Tumblr media
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
Tumblr media
With each other, and though some times were hard
Tumblr media
Even when he made him angry
Tumblr media
he would never break his heart
Tumblr media Tumblr media
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
Tumblr media
But they never had to travel 'cause they'd never be apart
Tumblr media
Even at the end, Their love was stronger than
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The day that they first met, They'd say
Tumblr media
The world's not perfect, 
Tumblr media
but its not that bad
Tumblr media
If we got each other, and that's all we have
Tumblr media
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
Tumblr media
You should know I'll be there for you
Tumblr media
If we have each other, then we'll both be fine
Tumblr media
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
Tumblr media
You should know I'll be there for you

'If activists are hiding books from you, the best thing you can do is seek them out and read them!'
One of the strangest developments of the culture war has been the rise of authoritarian librarians. It sounds ridiculous doesn't it? Surely librarians are there to support education and to enable the dissemination of literature and knowledge.
But this week it was reported that the library service in Calderdale Council has been hiding books by feminists such as Helen Joyce and Kathleen Stock. The Labor-run council confirmed that although these books would still be in the catalog and they could be requested, they were quote, "not visible on the library shelves." This is very odd.
Now, I've read the books in question by both Helen Joyce and Kathleen Stock, and they are rigorous, intelligent and important studies concerning one of the key issues of our time. And yet these librarians are treating them as though they are toxic, as if members of the public who happen upon them while browsing might somehow be instantly corrupted.
And yet we shouldn't really be surprised at all. The rise of Woke Librarians, however ludicrous that sounds, is a real thing. Now, I should say from the outset that I've nothing against librarians. Some of my best friends are librarians. But there is something about the profession that seems to attract the kind of paternalistic pharisee who believes that it's their job to protect others from wrongthink.
Let me give you some other examples. So a few years ago, it was reported that the former poet laureate Ted Hughes was included on a watch list created by the British Library because of a family connection with a slave owner. Turns out the connection was false and the Library issued an apology. But why was the foremost library in the UK creating this kind of watch list in the first place? Well, it was because in the wake of the killing of George Floyd, the library had commissioned what they called a "decolonizing working group" which decided that they should review the collections and draw up a list of any authors with problematic pasts. This same group also claimed that the library's main building was a monument to imperialism, because it looked a bit like a battleship. I'm not even joking.
Tumblr media
And in 2021 the Waterloo Region District School Board in Canada identified and removed books that were considered quote, "harmful to staff and students."
At the same time, other school libraries in Canada were disposing of copies of Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale following complaints about quote, "racist, homophobic or misogynistic language and themes."
And then there was the Ottawa Carlton District School Board which removed copies of William Golding's Lord of the Flies on the grounds that the themes of the book were quote, "outdated and too focused on white male power structures." Had they even read the book? If Lord of the Flies really is a comment on white male power structures, it can hardly be said to be an advertisement.
And then of course there's the whole trigger warning phenomenon. When archivists at Homerton College in Cambridge were engaged in a project to upload their collection of children's literature to the internet, they decided to flag a number of books with trigger warnings. Books such as Little House on the Prairie, and The Water Babies, and various books by Dr Seuss. And the archivists said they wanted to make their digital collection quote, "less harmful in the context of a canonical literary heritage that is shaped by, and continues a history of, oppression."
But books by Dr Seuss aren't oppressive or harmful, even if they do contain outdated racial stereotypes. They were written a long time ago, and readers understand that. Of course, that hasn't stopped the estate of Dr Seuss from withdrawing a number of titles from sale altogether. You can't even buy them anymore.
But the most revealing aspect of this story from Cambridge is a statement that the archivists at Homerton College put out. They said it would be a quote, "dereliction of our duty as gatekeepers to allow such casual racism to go unchecked." Gatekeepers. Now I thought they were meant to be custodians not gatekeepers.
And this is what is known as saying the quiet part out loud. Because really all of this behavior is edging towards censorship. For librarians and archivists to apply warnings to books or to hide them from the public, it's for them to say, "we don't think these books are good for you, we don't trust you to read these books and not to pick up some bad ideas, we must protect you from their influence." In other words, they're treating the public like a parent treats a small child.
And we shouldn't stand for it. Even the application of trigger warnings is a problem in and of itself. True, the books aren't being censored, but a trigger warning buys into the false belief that words and violence are the same thing. It implies that these books are dangerous, and in the wrong hands could cause trouble.
And it's not just libraries. Increasingly we're seeing museum staff attempting to protect the public from artifacts that they're meant to display. So last November, the Wellcome Collection in London shut down its key exhibit, one which dated from the 17th century, because it perpetuated quote, "a version of medical history that is based on racist, sexist and ableist theories and language."
Now we all know that ethical standards change over time and that people from the past held different views from us. Often views that we would consider objectionable. So why don't museum curators understand this too? Why is a museum preventing us from seeing artifacts from the past, when they should be facilitating access? Why is it that so many art galleries now insist on adding little labels next to paintings by great masters to say how much they disapprove of their values, as though the writers of these little sermons would have thought any differently if they had been born hundreds of years ago?
I don't care whether you disapprove of Hogarth's attitudes towards minorities, I just want to appreciate his work without having these soft-witted puritans breathing down my neck.
What we're seeing here is ideological capture. it's the same reason why the Catholic Church created an index of forbidden books which it had kept updated for 400 years right up until 1948. it's the same reason why Mary Whitehouse wanted certain TV shows banned back in the 1960s. It's the same reason why the BBC has censored scenes of old comedy shows such as Faulty Towers on the BBC streaming service. It's the same reason why staff at publishing houses revolt when there's a new book coming out by Jordan Peterson or JK Rowling or some other problematic author. And when the authors aren't as well known as Peterson or Rowling, the staff often get their way.
And if you don't think any of this is authoritarian, what about the time when the body in charge of elementary and secondary schools in Southwestern Ontario authorized the ritualistic burning of books if they contained outdated stereotypes, in what they described as a "flame purification ceremony." Almost 5000 books, including copies of Tintin and Asterix, were removed from shelves and were destroyed or recycled because of course, only the most [rogressive people in history have ever burned books.
Tumblr media
[ Source: The Times, via archive.today ]
It sounds preposterous, but the proliferation of activists in libraries, museums, schools, publishing houses, the arts and the media, makes complete sense when one considers that the devotees of this new woke religion have a vested interest in controlling the limits of acceptable thought. To use their own words, they are the gatekeepers.
But as adults in a civilized and liberal society, we don't need to be coddled, particularly by people whose capacity for critical thinking has been stunted by ideology. They say it's for our own good, but what tyrant in history hasn't made a similar claim?
So enough with the woke librarians. If activists are hiding books from you, the very best thing you can do is seek those books out and read them. These petty little authoritarians will do anything to control your speech and your thoughts. Don't let them get away with it.
==
We are reliably informed that it's only right-wing conservative Xians who want to ban or burn books. But it isn't true. There is a mirror image of the same Puritan authoritarianism on the woke left.

For Your Own Good- Part 11
part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6, part 7, part 8, part 9, part 10
Whumpee’s team waited outside Villain’s base for the cops to arrive. As they waited, Leader checked Whumpee over for any injuries.
“Looks like whatever injuries you sustained were patched up pretty well,” Leader remarked, “but we’re still taking you to the hospital after this.”
Whumpee groaned from their spot in Teammate 1’s arms.
“I don’t need a hospital,” Whumpee argued.
“Come on, Whumpee, don’t you wanna see Caretaker?” Teammate 2 asked.
“I don’t have to be admitted as a patient to see Caretaker,” Whumpee replied, “I can-”
“You’re starting to bleed through your bandages,” Teammate 2 interjected, “I can feel the blood seeping through, it’s kinda gross.”
“I guess Villain didn’t patch you up as well as I thought,” Leader said, “now we’re definitely taking you to the hospital.”
“But-”
“No buts, Whumpee,” Leader continued, “besides, they can probably get the paralytic to wear off faster than it would on its own. Don’t you want to be able to move again?”
“…yes,” Whumpee mumbled.
“That settles it. Let’s get Villain put away, then its straight to the doctors for you.”
At that moment, the sound of sirens wailed in the distance. The discussion with the police was brief. Once Villain was in the back of one of the high security vans, Whumpee’s team headed to their own vehicle. Teammate 1 gently set Whumpee down in the backseat and buckled their seatbelt for them. Whumpee was squished between Teammate 1 and Teammate 2. Whumpee’s head hung beneath their shoulders, the only thing keeping them somewhat upright was their seatbelt.
“Oh, sorry, Whumpee,” Teammate 1 said sheepishly.
Teammate 1 leaned Whumpee’s seat back and tilted Whumpee’s head so that it was resting on the headrest.
“Thanks,” Whumpee said.
Leader put the car in gear and headed for the hospital. When they arrived, Teammate 1 carried Whumpee to a stretcher. Whumpee’s team moved out of the way to let the nurses through.
“Wait, aren’t you guys coming with me?” Whumpee asked.
“Sorry, Whumpee, we can’t come with you to the OR, but we’ll be right there when you wake up.”
“Wake up?” Whumpee asked.
Whumpee felt a sharp pinch in the crook of their elbow. Almost immediately, Whumpee began to feel drowsy. They watched the lights overhead begin to blur as they were wheeled away from their team. Whumpee fell asleep to the sound of the nurses’ voices.
Whumpee stirred on something soft. They opened their eyes and squinted at the bright lights above them. Whumpee tried to move something. When they were able to wiggle their finger, they almost cried in relief.
“Hey,” a familiar voice said.
Whumpee turned their head- oh gosh, they could actually turn their head- to see Caretaker smiling at them.
“I just got discharged a few hours ago, Mercenary too,” Caretaker said, “how are you feeling?”
“Tired,” Whumpee said.
“Me too,” Caretaker laughed, “you’ve been through a lot these past few days.”
“Leader said you had a concussion,” Whumpee started.
“Don’t worry about me, I’m fine,” Caretaker replied, “I’m just tired, and my head hurts, but the doctor said I should be back to normal in a week or two.”
“Must be nice,” a voice said.
Whumpee looked over to see Mercenary and their team standing in the room.
“Broken ribs take several weeks to heal,” Mercenary complained bitterly, wincing as they put a hand over their ribs.
“How… how long have you all been standing there?” Whumpee asked.
“Like an hour maybe?” Mercenary replied, “I don’t know, time works different in hospitals.”
Whumpee laughed and shook their head, although the action sent a pain through it. Whumpee put a hand up to their head and felt stitches in their skin.
“I needed stitches?” Whumpee asked.
“On your head, your shoulder, and your hand,” Leader answered, “you’re lucky you didn’t break anything.”
“…so when can I go home?” Whumpee asked.
“Right now,” Leader answered, twirling their car keys with their finger.
Whumpee bolted upright in bed and threw off the covers. They were about to jump out of bed when Caretaker gently grabbed their shoulders.
“Woah, woah, take it easy, Whumpee,” Caretaker said, “they said you could go home, not overexert yourself.”
“Sorry,” Whumpee said, feeling a sharp pain in their shoulder, “I already regret doing that.”
Caretaker helped Whumpee out of bed while Teammate 2 handed them their clothes. Whumpee hadn’t even realized they were in a hospital gown.
“Let’s go home, Whumpee,” Caretaker said.
3 days later
“Whumpee!” Leader yelled, “what did the doctor say about overexertion?”
Whumpee stopped trying to reach the top shelf of the cupboard and turned to Leader with a sheepish grin.
“To not do it?” Whumpee asked.
Leader shook their head.
“Go sit on the couch with Caretaker, I already told you we’d bring you anything you need.”
“I just wanted a drink of water,” Whumpee answered, but they turned and headed for the living room couch anyway.
Whumpee sat down next to Caretaker, who was currently flipping through channels on the TV.
“You know, the doctor said not to do anything mentally taxing, but how draining can watching TV be, anyway?”
Mercenary walked by and grabbed the remote out of Caretaker’s hand. They turned the TV off and sat down in a chair.
“Hey, I was watching that!”
“Not anymore, you’re not,” Mercenary replied, “I saw you squinting at the screen, I bet everything was blurry, wasn’t it?”
Caretaker opened their mouth to speak, but closed it. Apparently Mercenary was right.
“So tell me, Whumpee,” Mercenary continued, “what was it like being kidnapped twice?”
“Mercenary!” Caretaker hissed.
“What? I’m curious!”
Whumpee took a minute to answer.
“I am genuinely surprised that I’m not addicted to sedatives by now,” Whumpee finally said, eliciting a laugh from Mercenary, “but given the choice between my kidnappers, I’d take you any day, Mercenary.”
“That’s what I like to hear,” Mercenary said with a grin.
Teammate 1 came in holding a glass of water. They handed it to Whumpee and sat down on the floor. Teammate 2 and Leader shortly followed. Leader sat down on the couch next to Whumpee and Teammate 2 joined Teammate 1 on the floor.
“Hey, uh, Whumpee?” Teammate 2 asked.
“What’s up?”
“Are you still mad at us for the whole… you know… kidnapping thing?”
A hush fell over the room as everyone waited for Whumpee’s response.
“I think at some point we need to have a long discussion about not paying to have your teammates kidnapped,” Whumpee said slowly, “but no, I’m too tired from all that’s happened to be mad anymore. Just do something for me.”
“Anything, Whumpee!” Teammate 2 said.
“What is it, Whumpee?” Teammate 1 asked.
Whumpee pulled out their phone and tossed it to Leader.
“Order a pizza, I haven’t eaten anything that hasn’t been drugged in days.”
Whumpee smiled as their team cheered. Finally, they felt like they were home again.
