I absolutely believe that in your personal journal you can do whatever the hell you want and if people choose to follow you then that is on them.

To my knowledge, I do not have any actual triggers although there is certainly content that I would like to know about before reading. There are definitely things that I am more comfortable with than others. For me though, the things that will actually make me back out of a fic very uncomfortably are things that will never be warned for because they are such standard romantic comedy style tropes. Mostly they have to do with people lying about significant things within a relationship (gender for example) and the fic never dealing with it as more than comedy or silly drama. But yeah, certainly not something I would expect anyone to warn for, I can close the window as good as the next person.

As regards incest, I feel like you do, that the pairing should tell the story. I would never dream of including incest warnings on Thor/Loki fic although I have put "sibling incest" and "cousin incest" on things before. These days I probably wouldn't unless it was a tagging at AO3 because I know I search my kinks that way.

I am used to be people judging me for it.

Not in this journal they won't. :D

I wrote a fic with a fetish concerning something that actively grosses me out in real life and it was an interesting experience to try and portray it as something I could find hot upon reading it.

I completed a coverall in Kink_Bingo and there were some kinks that it took me a while to figure out how to do in a way that was both respectful of the kink and respectful to myself. I had a lot of prompts that are often skewed toward D/s which is not something I am very comfortable with and especially not in the fandom I was writing. I had to find out how to make it work for the kink, me, and the characters I was writing. It was certainly an interesting experience and I think I learned a lot doing it.
