I have gotten back into reading for fun and I love it! I have read a bunch of great books. The issue is, so many books have triggering content in them now adays. It is really triggering to read a book, to get invested in characters, then to read that. Is there a place I can check if the book includes something triggering?

      That’s such a dumb argument. Just because it was like that in the past doesn’t mean it was better.

        I didn’t say it was better. That’s just the way it was. Trigger warnings are stupid, though. Deal with your shit.

          Then why do you care if it wasn’t better back then? I don’t need them but I have enough empathy to understand that others might.
