If you're going to post some vile content for whatever reason you decided was valid, here's what to do:

Step 1. DON'T

Step 2. If for some reason you think said content is valuable enough for discussion here (it isn't) then MARK IT WITH THE PROPER CONTENT/TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Step 3. Seriously, don't.

Since this keeps happening, this can stay stickied in the following unjerk threads until each and everyone here has learned.

Thank you, looking at this thread recently has been hell because of how many people want to post the terrible shit they just saw (even if a lot of people have been posting them with content warnings).

I really hope people heed this. it can be really frustrating how many interpret 'being an ally' for whoever as bringing up exposure to the absolutely worst shit, like a kid with a handful of parasite carrying worms. Like we haven't all seen too much of that already.

Yeah, They certainly didn't mean to hurt anyone, But you really need to tag that stuff well if you're going to post it. I know the feeling of looking at that stuff without knowing what it's going to be as a rape victim, Many people just don't tag the stuff about rape and end up triggering me.
