I tightly curate my social media spaces. I generally try to avoid retweet/reblog-heavy blogs. Please don't be offended if I don't do follow-backs. Due to suspected RSD, I tend to either stick to myself, or find smaller, quieter spaces. I feel less hurt sitting alone in an empty room. I feel tremendously hurt when I feel like I'm being ignored in a large, busy one. I'm best contributing from under my rock; if I'm dragged into the thick of a larger fandom, I get disheartened by my relative invisibility very easily. aug 27 2021 ∞

Twitter engagement destruction from Stinky Tesla Man ruining it in favor of people who pay him, plus a deep paranoia that people are ignoring me on purpose because someone might be quietly upset with me/secretly telling people to avoid me is making it hard to exist in fandom space, so I need a bit of distance to heal. Sore spot fandoms that I'd rather not discuss - MLP, Undertale, Terraria, Mega Man

dec 9 2024 + If you're blocked on TwX I kinda feel like you wouldn't be here. I mostly only block cr*pto spam or extremely toxic people I find in Obvious Troll Threads so that anyone in them will never see my content casually in passing. If you're blocked on Bluesky, I am a NUCLEAR blocker there. If you say something that makes me even think of responding in a negative way, I block and move on. Go back to TwX if you think baiting for engagement is still relevant. I also have Moderation block lists and a DNI for bots, AI art, and NFTs. If you're blocked on Tumblr it's because there's no Mute function there to filter abrasive content that I don't feel like engaging over beyond just wanting to stop seeing it. I also block collection/inspo blogs that reblog my art because I'm super tired of asking people to stop treating my work like clip-art. jul 4 2022 ∞

I like to remain upfront about being Christian to avoid awkwardness from people assuming I am not one because of my interests and general habits towards tolerating or even supporting things a lot of mainstream 'Christians' violently condemn. I try to be open and accepting of other peoples' beliefs, preferences, self-identity, etc. provided they are not using them as excuses to harm others.
To reiterate the post that got buried on Twitter:

jan 17 2022 + Sorry, no. Discord servers demand a certain amount of mental capacity from me that I don't have. They're everything I dislike about forums turned up to eleven. I am a social vampire. I need to be invited into a space first... but I also need to know that the invitation is being extended mutually by a majority of the other members. If I'm dropped by one person who likes me into the middle of a bunch of people who are going to ignore me because they never asked me to be there, I'm going to shrivel up and leave. If I'm invited into a 3-person chat that includes the presence of ONE extra person who is going to selectively ignore me in favor of the person who invited me, I'm going to shrivel up and leave. That has been 95% of my experience with Discord, and I don't have the heart to keep trying and assuming it'll ever change. jun 25 2024 ∞

jun 5 2024 + While I am 38, I tend to be fairly reserved in public spaces online and do not post explicit NSFW (though may make the occasional mildly suggestive joke). However - and you have probably noticed this - my art does tend to trend towards things like gore (lately mostly of a robotic variety) and/or body horror

jun 1 2023 + I try to be accepting of shipping but would rather avoid public discourse on it.
