[image] @dollmaidcrystal : A theory that I haven't heard before: Horny posters are needed as a natural balance against purity culture. Without us, what is “acceptable, healthy sexuality” starts shrinking. https://www.vox.com/... @secretsunblog : In which Liber Al's begin to have second thoughts about the army of extremely-online scolds they weaponized and sicced on their enemies. Delicious. https://twitter.com/...
