Reposted by Soup!🕯️zhinxy and 1 other @zhinxy.bsky.social · 18/04/2025When I talk about how we need to make literacy a top (if not the top) priority going forward, i usually get supportive comments about teaching better critical analysis, etc, and that is very important, but I literally mean we must teach people to sound out words and comprehend sentences. 13016
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hI saw someone do Unpopular Thing so beautifully that I was pricked by the thorn of envy and felt like I was missing out, so I just want to make it clear that it's okay to do what most other people are doing! You are so valid! 091
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hUnpopular Thing is bad and dangerous and you could hurt yourself by doing it! It is safe to do Harmless Popular Thing. I know it's really tough to fit in with literally most people, but you gotta keep faith. I believe in you. 1101
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hGuys, I just want to tell you that it's okay to be the status quo. You are so valid for doing the most popular thing. People that do Unpopular Thing will tell you that you are lame and come to your window at night and yowl like an angry cat. Please don't feel pressured to do Unpoplular Thing. :( 1131
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hThe shit I see marketed as "dark romance" is standard slap and tickle! It's not even that dark! If that's as daring as you get, my drafts would make you hurl! 020
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hThis is like. "Normalize straight people." "Make it socially acceptable to have a job." 030
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hHonestly, the thing that comes to mind when I encounter that is, "Oooo, you wanna be oppressed so fucking bad, don't you" because where else is this coming from??? 240
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hSome of the most skilled and talented writers I personally know are known for writing about the enduring power of love and somehow still get shit on because their work wasn't sanitized enough of all sensuality and nuance. 0110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hThat's like a step beyond making up a guy to be upset at. It sounds a lot like /you/ feel inadequate and you are trying to make it an "us" problem. 2110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hWhat kind of reality do you live in where "dark fiction" is so popular, people en masse are being pressured into writing it and engaging with it, when soc med is filled with people who think a bare nipple is problematic, be so serious. 1130
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 16hNot me seeing a take on here that's like, "We're being pressured to write dark topics. :( People think good writers only write dark fiction. :( Guys, please don't feel pressured to write Bad Stuff :( :( :(" Meanwhile those of us who do write transgressive fiction are fighting for our lives. 3180
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 20hIt's so personally rewarding for him to have a nuke wrapped around his finger. Actually. 090
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 20hI love Astarion, I'm giving him access to the nuclear codes. 1100
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 20hLove writing Astarion as the devil on Oleander's shoulder, giving him permission to go apeshit. 190
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I have to work today, but at least I get to see this before my commute 010
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026This is what it's like with Sam and Lir on my feed 0140
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Love it now, adore it, but it struck fear in my heart at that tender age. 280
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The opening chords to Phantom of the Opera. My grandma loved musicals and had it on CD back in the day, she'd play it while cleaning and when I heard that organ go BAAAM BAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAAAM my little ass streaked through the house in terror. 2120
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026These two idiots love fighting over the same toy over and over again. 140
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026For actual weeks, I have been watching these two orange cats on Tiktok fighting over the same green toy and every time a new update crosses my fyp I'm healed. 150
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Omg I just read that some people online call this kink "shrek-core" I'm- 030
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026And dude is too chickenshit to apologize to your faces? 🫠 110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026You're fucking kidding me, you mean he's had your ceiling leaking three times??? That you even have to ask your property manager to do something about him is CRAZY. 110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If I flooded my neighbor's unit because I fell asleep while the bath was running, I'd be fucking mortified and bending over backwards and giving what little money I could or sending food, something! Something! 110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Not impressed with how the management has been handling this stuff happening to you guys either. Maybe people being negligent and causing property damage should be penalized in some way! Idk, fines, eviction if it's bad enough, something! People aren't scared enough if this shit keeps happening. 120
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If it is literally called ugly/pretty I'm going to laugh. 220
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Is there a word for a kink that is essentially beauty juxtaposed with ugliness? Monsterfucking is definitely a flavor of it, but it doesn't quite fit. There is a lot more going on with monsterfucking than just ugly up against pretty. 230
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Comforting myself with thoughts of Oleander having sex with ugly men. 160
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I'm so sorry, what the fuck is it with you guys getting absolutely shafted by the negligence of your neighbors??? How much trauma do you have to go through because other people can't be bothered to think about how their actions can snowball and impact others? 120

Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Eogar on my feed. Blessed day. Blessed day, indeed. 152
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I hope he enjoys listening to Nickelback while chopping wood and has a great time. 110
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Hey. It could just be a bad day. God knows, I've had my days where I woke up ready to yell, so maybe it's that and he needs a break from being online. Either way, we should all have a good night. 020
Soup!🕯️ @fraughtbroth.bsky.social · 05/10/2026My take on it as a trans man is that misogyny impacts all trans people and applies to all trans people because cis men see us all in a certain light. 030
