This method reminds me of a technique used in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to deal with pain or fear. Exaggerating a thought or giving it a silly voice or character, while staying neutral toward that part of yourself, can be a solid way to manage anxiety.

It’s called cognitive defusion. You notice when you're "fused" with a thought or pattern, and by using techniques like the one you mentioned, you create distance between the thought and your sense of self.

Not OP but a bottom would be more submissive and probably write something along the lines "please put your finger in my throat 👉👈 uWu" or a variation thereof.

Ah gotcha yeah that makes a lot of sense! I hope that kind of bigotry dies out again soon but doesn't look like its slowing down. I hope you can feel safe and be more like your true self now.

Yeah I know but didn't want to assume. Some people have family roots for example. I do work with US colleagues and not all feel the need to move countries for example, which I find very interesting because it sure looks like a shit show to me. I'm not based in the US myself.

Out of interest, since moving continents is no small matter in my opinion; what makes that, and making a third in terms of salary vs the US, a worthwhile trade-off?

According to wikipedia:

Headquarters

  • Olathe, Kansas, U.S (operations)
  • Schaffhausen, Switzerland (legal domicile)

I'm not really sure if that fully counts as EU/European 🤷

In the EU it's not street legal. In short, it fails a plethora of basic safety regulations.
