The issue I'm trying to interrogate is why people are reacting like this broadly. I have seen people say this about much more tame art. What's deemed as "extreme" varies a lot from person to person. Anecdotally a lot of my traumatized marginalized friends engage with extreme horror. It's not just me

All of this is to say, I understand what you're saying and I don't necessarily disagree. However, I'm discussing something different. I'm interested in the reaction towards art like this. There will be more studies if you look up "trauma coping and horror" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

It all reads a bit like the panic over media all over the past. Like it frequently feels like the way people discuss art in this fascist ecosystem will potentially lead to another "video nasty" situation where independent artists get screwed over.

My issue with the way people are acting about the reaction to the Crossed trailer dropping is to a very reactionary right wing bent a lot of it is coming from. There are calls to "check hard drives" and put "people on lists" all over social media nowadays for just engaging with horror.

There's plenty of lines I draw in the sand when engaging with media. For instance I find most anime generally pretty distasteful because of the frequent sexual violence against children depicted in it. Although, there are good examples of anime that do address it well (utena and flcl).

The angle I'm coming at this from isn't so much about the art itself, but how people discuss the people who do engage with it. I acknowledge not every viewer is like me, but a lot of trauma survivors I personally know also engage with horror like this. It just makes us feel seen.

Ok just finished reading all this. To make it a bit more clear, while I am not a fan of Crossed and I am very critical of art in the extreme end of content, I have personally gained a lot from engaging with it. I'm a CSA survivor and live with debilitating ocd+cptsd.

I'm seeing a lot of people talk about CROSSED because the trailer dropped. I'm so fucking tired of people calling for censorship and for people to be put in jail for engaging with horror. Survivors are a huge part of the audience for art like this.

pity bullet @pitybullet.bsky.social · 16h

This is just 1 of MANY studies. In particular in my experience as an artist who writes about my experience with sexual violence, it has helped so fucking much. Edgy and tasteless media people make can help survivors especially if it depicts something rare they experienced. osf.io/preprints/ps...

All these people calling for people who enjoy extreme horror to be "put on a list" and such is so fucking frustrating because congrats you're mainly going after marginalized trauma survivors. Trauma survivors make up a huge part of that audience. It's exposure therapy. This is well studied.

The debate continues,

Nerdy mouse girl labeled 'girls on a five day cycle' saying

"Basically if you're on Estradiol Valerate and can't get a different ester like Enanthate you should be on a five day cycle for optimal hormone stability.
It's easiest to conceptualize it as doing one shot for each day of the week in a month without repeating:
SThTSuFWM
I use the JAV Title
mnemonic device: Sexy, Three Trannies Sucked and Fucked on
Wednesday Morning"

Blaisé wolf girl saying "mental breakdown every Tuesday. Do my shot every Wednesday. Simple as."

Welp, I'm back to being terrified of death again. That's good I suppose. Definitely better than my constant suicidal feelings taking over. I just needed more iron in my diet again. I wish I was kidding. Vitamins have genuinely been a bit of a game changer for me in my depression.

just so everyone knows, the title IX changes also made it even harder to report sexual assult as well as making it legal to descriminate against trans people. anti-trans means pro-rape. every time.

There will never be any romanticization. I just want to learn to live alongside this. I have been good and not suicidal for years. This is all a bit new to me.

pity bullet @pitybullet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The pity bullet isn't an edgy thing. It's about me constantly struggling with these feelings and desiring for it to just end. But it never happens. I am terrified of death. Horrified by it. Find ways to be stable. Find ways to stop caring if folks will ever understand how they hurt you.

150

pity bullet @pitybullet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I worry about coming off as edgy, but I am just trying to express my horrific mental state this last year. I have dealt with so much suicidal ideation lately and my art reflects that. It's never going to be about reveling in those feelings. It will always be about living with it and learning.

pity bullet @pitybullet.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

It should probably scare me a bit more that almost everything I've made in the last year has sounded like it's about two steps away from leaping off a ledge... It'll be ok I'm sure. Somehow I persist as always.

I feel like my best work generally comes out when I go into the daw feeling a certain type of way rather than just "normal." Doesn't necessarily have to be a bad headspace. Sometimes just putting emotions into sound helps a lot.

The song on our recent ep "drifting further in the depths" has the most depressing chord progression I've written. God it's so fucking bleak. It's like maybe my favorite song I've worked on. So sad,,,,,,,,

There's something extra exhausting about the expectation from cis people that trans people should be nice and acquiesce quietly, when a lot of us have lost friends in recent years, have been fleeing homes or are helping out friends fleeing or trying to keep them afloat after being ousted from work..

It's completely inaccurate too. It pisses me off how many cis people say this not understanding sex is a social construct exactly like gender. When you say this, you've labeled two clusters on a bimodal distribution and ignored everything else. This also erases intersex people.

Democrats do not and will not give a shit about us without tons of public pressure. They're beholden to the same money in politics system as republicans and there is literally a billionaire who bankrolls the anti trans movement.
