Trigger warnings on tumblr are really weird. Like, there is such a thing as an emotional trigger but it's nothing like a PTSD trigger and that would be just feeling awkward in certain situations. That's not something that requires a warning and honestly padding out your life like that makes you unable to deal with the triggers themselves.

I had this dumb trigger where I couldn't look at a specific kind of device. Had bad memories and I'm a pretty sentimental person. I exposed myself slowly to the object more as time went on and after a while I didn't have the problem anymore. I don't understand why people on tumblr think doing the exact opposite will help them.

Imagine somebody trying this for Red Letter Media's Plinkett reviews.

I actually did see an angry comment or two on one of RLM's Best of the Worst where beautiful manchild Rich Evans called something a "tranny tracker 3000".

Like not sure what they were expecting, this is the same group that has a raping robot and Mr. Plinkett being a murderous cat fucker the blasts a hole through his TV screen with his cum over Mary Kate and Ashley videos, but 'tranny tracker 3000' just took it too far apparently.
 
I was playing Cards Against Humanity online with a few friends, and some Tumblrite showed up. She apparently followed me, and told me that I was her sempai because I tag everything.

I didn't have the heart to tell her that I only do that because I like to keep my blog organized.

Oh my god that reminds me of when I used to hang out with. The progressive rock fandom on tumblr is full of some of the most uptight SJWs this side of otherkin valley and they lost my shit when I made a "consensual sax" joke with the saxophone player from Supertramp. It was ridiculous. It was nice to talk with them about the band members and the albums but it was like walking on ice, you couldn't fucking criticize them for anything, you couldn't call out stupid shit like otherkin or bullshit gender identities... you always felt like you were under the gun.

They would constantly invite me to their CAH games and it was so dreadful, these people have no sense of humour. DURR LOOK I PUT PINK FLOYD IN THERE SO FUNNY HAHA DERP DERP RICK DAVIES DOHOHOHO Oh my god it was fucking painful. They'd always pick OH SO RANDOM bullshit. You couldn't make any funny choices or even really any funny cards because they were so PC. It was the fucking worst. These people are so painfully unfunny I have no idea how they are entertained for hours with this crap.

These people are also insanely aggressive and basically lose their fucking shit at a hair trigger. Like, these people idolize Roger Hodgson who is like the biggest fucking hippie ever, do they even think, "Hey, maybe my idol wouldn't feel cool with me being a complete fucking overreacting faggot with ideas that don't fit into my pinhole sized view of the world"?

The best part though was to remind them that Supertramp released a song on one of their more obscure albums ("Potter" from Indelibly Stamped) that outright says racial slurs in it and they lose their fucking shit. They try so hard to bury the song. The song is weird and subpar since it sounds like nothing else the band put out but it's still pretty hilarious to see them overreact to it. Triggered by one of their favourite bands hahaha, fucking lol.

tl;dr don't befriend SJWs even if they're the only person you can talk about a single subject to.
 
Interpret this info as you will

Canada, US and the UK have the most interest, so that should tell you something

Has anyone ever actually seen anyone get 'triggered'. Like you were walking g down the street and a woman in front of you suddenly caught sight of a man with a moustache or something, that triggered her PTSD from the time a man with a tache asked her for coffee. What happens? Because I can't see even the most dedicated tumblrista having a pretend panic attack in a crowded street without being certain that there was a gang of similar tumblrtards nearby to give her the reaction she wants and feed her into her hugbox.

I've seen a veteran break out in a cold sweat and start shaking after a car backfiring, or have hair-trigger anger. But that's actual, real PTSD.

"i unfollow on sight for violence against miss piggy." is probably the best thing I've read today

Is that a thing that happens often?

If I'm not mistaken, she's usually the one inciting violence.

 
This person is, unsurprisingly, fictionkin. They think they're Miss Piggy. So any violence against her is also violence against them!!!
Miss Piggy is pretty badass I don't see her getting upset over someone holding balloons and all of that nonsence, but what do I know
