MODERATORS
Why?
A lot of us are trying to get away from Reddit, including its tracking.
How does Reddit track you when you view content from their CDN?
Are you serious?! The same way that Facebook tracks you when you view content from their CDN.
You didn't answer.
You can't embed content natively from Facebook.
Meaning you can't get .mp4, .PNG,...etc direct links.
On Reddit you can.
And you think direct linking is without tracking?
By clicking that link, I’m giving Reddit access to my ip address, (hopefully rough) geo location, my browser fingerprint, among other details that they may glean from cookies and if I had stupidly still been logged in to Reddit, they can attach that session to my Reddit account.
You don't understand how hotlinking works.
When you click on the photo/video, you are just viewing/downloading a file from Reddit servers.
They basically get one thing, your IP address.
There is no Cookies involved, no further tracking.
That's very naive of you.
THEY SAID PLEASE
I’ve said that to my wife before “I prefer pictures, you prefer words, but at the end of the day, they’re both porn”
Same as women watching celebrity news and men gaming: it's just entertainment.
But it sure is difficult to furiously rub our clits with our right hand while holding a book in our left hand.
Then use the right hand 🤦♀️

The other day my wife was watching YouTube on the TV while I was doing some chores. Turns on a video titled something like “The boy love Trump administration chart - with evidence.”
The narrator begins, “First I have to make it clear, Trump is an OMEGA.”
And I’m like, “What the hell is an Omega?”
And my wife just slips in casually, “Oh it’s a common boy love term that means a tough guy who can get pregnant.”
Women do not fuck around when cooking up smut.
That's a good video I highly recommend part 2
I had to read that a few times to fully process it. Then I realized that's the back story for Kronar in Oglaf: https://www.oglaf.com/son-of-kronar/
Yes. In some weird way, they are the equivalent to pornography.
That is because they are.
As a young man I worked in a bookstore and when I discovered the amount of smut in romance novels it was pretty shocking.
Then I read the Claiming of Sleeping Beauty.
I was not prepared for that.
So, I tried the first few chapters. At what point does it become illegal? (Spoiler alert. They explain how she was asleep for hundreds of years, but they also describe her little 15 year old body way too much)
Sure, the author can get paid for writing that. But if I request fan art or AI art of it, then I'm in trouble?
(I'm not requesting that art. Nor am I continuing the books. You can still tell the same story with a 25 y/o Prince and a 19 y/o princess)
It's been decades since I've read it, so I wasn't sure if I remembered that part correctly or I would have mentioned it. I recall another part where one of the princes gets raped that was really messed up as well. And just a lot of rape in general in that book that I thought was gross. I recall really being disturbed by it more than I was by The Clan of the Cave Bear because the latter presented the rape of Ayla (as a child) in an intentionally gross, traumatic and disturbing way, while Anne Rice wrote the rape of Beauty in an erotic way.
Anyway, both books frequent banned books lists. I read many banned books during my time at the bookstore.
That one will leave you with some memories for sure.

Full of unrealistic unicorn men and women.
What are they like? Are they all like Gray's Anatomy? (or whatever that book is named that's about fake S&M and rape fantasies)
whatever that book is named that’s about fake S&M and rape fantasies)
yes. but with more interspecies monster sex.

Haha, 50 Shades of Grey. Grey's Anatomy is a TV series, a drama about surgical interns and their supervisors.

A fair amount of them read like uncomfortably graphic descriptions of a 13 year old girl's idea of sex.
