article on bbc.com: France's language watchdog has told government officials to use French fetish terms instead of Japanese ones. The Académie Française today announced that French kinksters must use the term "maîtrise de la pisse" instead of the more widely-used Japanese loan word "omorashi". France's culture ministry told the AFP news agency that linguistic borrowings were "a barrier to understanding". But bladder control fetishists have criticised the ban, with one calling it "completely pointless". France regularly issues warnings of the "debasement" of its language through imported foreign words. Other official translations include "visage de la petite mort" for "ahegao".ALT

French people when you call it bukake and not "nut a la visage" and shibari instead of "corde attacher l'submissive"

the edit is funny, but I cannot emphasize enough that the original article also killed me

France's language watchdog has told government officials to use French gaming terms instead of English ones. The Académie Française says "jeu video de competition" should replace "e-sports", and "streamer" should become "joueur-animateur en direct". France's culture ministry told the AFP news agency that Anglicisms were "a barrier to understanding". But gamers have criticised the ban, with one calling it "completely pointless". France regularly issues warnings of the "debasement" of its language through imported English words. Other official translations include "jeu video en nuage" for "cloud gaming".ALT

jeu video de competition

SIMPLE GUIDE:

Body Horror: Things that cannot happen in real life.
EX: The Thing, stomach mouths, eyes on hands, etc

Gore: Fresh injuries, often severe.
EX: Severed leg, gutspill, deep gashes, etc

NEITHER: Healed injuries and burns, congenital differences, missing appendages, etc. If I could theoretically go to the store and see that character browsing the isles- It isn't body horror or gore. That's just a person.
*AND the amount of people that tag, not just fictional characters, but real human beings as body horror is staggering. Its not solely a fandom issue, ableism and bigotry against anyone that looks sufficiently "different" is prevalent in real life and has devastating consequences.

one time I went over to a friend's house and their housemate was making paper in the living room, and we saw this big tub full of water they were using to dissolve old scrap paper into a slurry, and everyone was immediately like "oh, you need scrap paper?" and started turning out their jacket pockets and producing expired coupons and bus tickets and crumpled receipts and old shopping lists and whatever else they'd been carrying round with them for no good reason, and passing it all to the paper-making housemate to make sure it was suitable before it got torn up and dropped into the tub, while people took turns stirring the slurry with a big wooden stick. it was strangely ritualistic, like presenting an offering to some kind of temple elder for inspection before placing it in a watery shrine to be devoured and reformed. pulp for the pulp god.
