No though in seriousness I just felt like making this post to highlight some of the stuff I miss that has gone away, I miss bleached Magazine & Bleached Merch edits that made the kink feel more.. legitimate in a way? Above all else I miss the " Q " that used to make it easy to distingush from blacked - this seems like such a minor thing to rant about but it really goes a long way , I don't know why this happened but bleached editors seem to favour a default "Q" that looks more in line with QoS than it does QoH which takes away another identifier, I keep seeing a lot of new edits with black ink too and without the recognisable Q it literally just looks like another blacked edit until I click on it to zoom in and double check.
Are there any things from early edits you miss? Do you agree with me and think we need more things to seperate us from blacked?
I partially agree with you. I feel in a lot of ways Bleached has evolved but in others it has regressed. One thing I do miss is the variety of captions we used to get. I always enjoyed seeing the creative writing talent on display whenever a new caption was uploaded. Now it's significantly more rare

Yeah some of the hottest (imo) posts were the ones with captions alongside the image. Caption posts are rare nowadays but hopefully they make a comeback in future.
Figured I'd make a simple follow up because I don't think I really worded things well.
I liked the old simple edits because they were a lot more heavy on the *implied* racism, like seeing a girl lift her skirt to reveal a QOH was a dog whistle they only fucked white people

Ok I figured i'd make a follow up post because this got way more traction than i thought it would and I feel like i worded things poorly there.
The reason I miss the early & simple bleached edits is simply that they were more effective as raceplay. eye censorship, sparing use of tattoos, girls casually wearing or modeling "bleached" merch, appearing in "bleached" magezines with captions as to why they decided to become "bleachbunnys" and such. A lot of it is very good at implied if not out-right racism and showing that these girls *only* fuck with whites in very simple yet effective manor without the need for any nazi bullshit. It makes me feel a special kind of arousal for being sought after so highly by these girls and it's also the kind of humilating nieche porn you could send to a black cuck and have them ashamedly goon over it.
In regards to the "Q" I feel I really didn't explain myself well - earlier edits would tend to opt to use a square Q rather than your typical queen of hearts Q to visually seperate the kink from blacked a lot more but it seems people have just fallen back on the default "Q" , it's not a massive deal but i feel like it's another layer of seperation that's been lost. The only thing that we really have as a visual indicator the edit isn't just another blacked edit is red ink instead of black ink.
I also somewhat miss the old lingo, no one says " Colonise me! " and such anymore, how am I meant to create my british empire harem now? ( sad rule Rule Britannia plays )
All this being said I understand bitching about it won't suddenly change the status quo - I understand why the front page is DOMINATED by full body tattoo edits and it's because they're easy to do and can be pumped out rapidly rather than magazine or merch edits. That being said I may start trying to do basic censorship edits since those are the edits I enjoy the most and I think they're rather easy to do
