It's so frustrating watching people incorrectly (and very confidently) talk about things you know well.
I'm watching CinnamonToastKen's To Catch A Predator reactions and like... Some of the predators are like, "It's not illegal to fantasize."
You're right. FANTASY is completely legal (doesn't make it acceptable). It gets ILLEGAL when REAL-life people (children) get involved. Through pictures, videos, etc. When you SHOW UP AT THAT HOUSE, it shows a CLEAR intent to do SOMETHING... They are aware they are talking to a minor (decoy) and make the decision to meet this minor.

In the 2011 article where Professor Schaverien publically debuts her concept of boarding school syndrome she has this fucking line, “For the first time in their life the child may be in a situation where there is no intimate contact; no love,” which pulled the ripcord right out of my spine.
Roy’s potential trauma at boarding school isn’t just about the environment he was in but the home that he was deprived of. Roy was nine years old and there was nobody around him who loved him.
His grandfather’s death wasn’t just a tragedy. It wasn’t just being deprived of anymore time with him or a lack of closure from being unable to say good-bye. It was the Kent family losing an adult man who could drive and had a car.
When Roy was sent away his parents would have understood that Roy’s grandfather was going to be around to help. He could visit Roy himself or he could take over childcare duties for Roy’s sister, so that Roy’s parent’s could make the trip.
Then there is the extra financial and scheduling flexibility that is inherent of an additional adult. Working, retired, it doesn’t matter. There was one more person in the family whose job it was to help take care of everyone, and by extension Roy.
Now Roy’s family is not only dealing with grief and arrangements, it might now be impossible for there to be frequent subsequent visits from the family. It could have been very hard for Roy to make it home for the funeral. Roy might have missed holiday’s he expected to be at home because there was no one to provide transportation.
Roy spending so much time with Phoebe may be a commitment made in deliberate response to the trauma of this event. Phoebe is six in season one, so by season three she’s almost at the age Roy was when he went away. Roy might find it incredibly important that he and his sister are able to provide Phoebe a childhood with not only financial security, but adults that are physically present in her life who do not have to send her away.
From the subplot of Roy smothering Keeley, we know that Roy’s expresses affection by being physically present with his loved ones. He has no innate grasp that people can max out on time with the people he love.
He seems to experience a deep feeling of rejection at the idea that he would leave Keeley to go on vacation without her, as opposed to spending his time at home even if only one of them is not working.
I always stumbled at how strongly Roy reacted to Keeley suggesting he vacation by himself, especially after how easily he suggested canceling the entire thing. I think Keeley, after being the one to push Roy towards punditry, was trying to give him permission and encouragement to do things for himself. This is something that she herself has often needed.
But I think Roy’s takeaway emotionally was that Keeley was proposing, essentially, that it would be relaxing for Roy to abandon his girlfriend, and that she herself was unbothered by the idea of their separation.
The entirety of his latest plotline is a showcase of the depths he will go to in order to avoid being left. He broke up with Chelsea and Keeley. He categorically cannot risk giving that which he cares about the chance to leave him first.

there is legit nothing more annoying than dog owners who bring their dog everywhere (and im not talking about service dogs or certified esas so dont get in my notes about that) like bringing it to fucking safeway and target and then their dog is the most untrained annoying animal in the world. like do you see the sign that says no pets and think this does not apply to me. last semester there was a girl in my marine bio class who brought her pet dog constantly and one time it shit on the floor like. why do you need your dog in class why do you need your dog at the supermarket. i simply dont get it
