huge burden for a tiny thing

We all love the "becoming the very thing you sought to destroy," trope. but I have a growing fondness for "destroying the very thing you sought to become"

I have a bad habit of calling things “loathsome” if they mildly inconvenience me, which usually isn’t that bad, but today I spilled my drink and said “loathsome juice…” under my breath without realizing that’s not a normal thing to say

True crime is one of the few genres of media that actually does have, at its core, palpable real-world harm. So much of it is nakedly exploitative and based on invading the privacy, grief, and trauma of real people - not just when the media's made, but also by encouraging viewers to become hobbyist investigators prying into their lives. It reinforces the mainstream media propaganda that vastly overstates how common violent crime is, how common stranger violence is, and encourages people to be paranoid and fearful out of all proportion with actual danger

And anyway it's so completely normalized that there are tons of people who will casually talk about binging a show reenacting a real person's real death, and then look at you funny if you talk about watching fictional horror movies
