Life, the Internet, socmed, and fandom are complicated things.I am a fully grown adult, with my own experiences, values, thoughts, opinions, ethics, tastes, needs, sensitivities, priorities, boundaries, internal life, and personal life offline.
I do my own research, thinking, and judging,
in order to reach my own conclusions, and act accordingly.I am not going to justify myself to anyone about any of that.

consequently, I easily, liberally, guiltlessly,
for any reason and with no explanation:

  • mute, unfollow and block accounts

  • mute and blacklist terms

  • ignore public or private messages

  • ignore current topics

  • read, share or like things i don't fully agree with but think are worth a read

  • omit to share or like things i don't feel confident about for any reason

  • talk about unsavoury aspects or opinions about complicated topics

  • keep thoughts to myself

  • keep my privacy

  • occasionally bitch, lust or squee on main

and you might want to go ahead and block me if you:

  • do not wish to interact with an adult

  • do not wish to see nsfw and/or unsavoury content or discussion thereof

i have big and loud feelings about:

my general approach to fandom:

  • it's transformative

  • real people =/= fictional depictions

  • real people > fictional depictions

  • no one owes nor is owed anything to or from anyone else; your rights and boundaries stop where other people's start

  • we are all weird freaks here and attempts at policing creation and enforcing purity culture do nothing but harm all of us

  • don't gatekeep newcomers and don't write off your elders. learn your fandom history, it's pretty dang long.

  • any given current debate has been had before, probably before you were born (and is statistically likely to be one of the reasons of why the AO3 exists in the first place)

  • curate your experience, create for yourself, have fun

i often enjoy:

  • study of fandom in itself

  • meta, analyses, specific readings, theories, speculation, ...

  • playing with and within the boundaries of canon (but that is only one of many personal preferences and ways to enjoy a medium, we are all Free)

  • simultaneously holding many varying and contradicting headcanons/readings/interpretations for any given fandom without picking and sticking to one (again, highly recommend it. be free.)

  • multishipping, polyshipping, crackships, rarepairs, ...

  • gen

  • kink memes

i DO occasionally talk about, create & share fanworks involving mature & unsavoury themes, including but not limited to:

  • toxic, unhealthy, abusive, etc. characters and ships

  • consensual and non-consensual smut/porn, kink

  • noncon/rape, consent issues, abuse, manipulation, gaslighting

  • power imbalance, large age differences, underage characters

  • daddy issues

  • incest

  • trauma, grief

  • violence, gore, body horror, ero-guro

  • cannibalism, vore

  • monsterfucking, xenophilia

  • othering, external or internalised queerphobia, aphobia, ableism, etc

  • etc. etc.

simultaneously i actively enjoy fluffy and gen stuff,
and also spend a lot of time being emotional about:

  • monsters…

  • ladies…

  • dads...

  • bastards, bitches and assorted poor little meow meows

  • the one with blue hair, water and/or space theme

  • the one that appears perfectly normal, well-adjusted and lovely but has something deeply wrong & fucked up with them

  • found(ed) family, community, bonding and communicating

  • characters casually being neurodivergent, disabled, nonbinary, aspec, having atypical relationships and love, and it being a non-issue

  • non-romantic and/or non-sexual and/or-non-physical affection and intimacy

  • characters healing, supporting and loving each other

  • growing old(er), adulthood, old age, life beyond teenagehood

current highkey obsessions

  • Detective Conan (made me bi, Akai Shuuichi is well on his way to making me a yumejoshi)

some things i care about

  • gender, trans and nonbinary identities

  • neurodivergence, mental illness, disability, ableism and accessibility

  • sex positivity, consent, kink, sex workers rights

  • body positivity, body image, fatphobia

  • fandom and its history (so many thoughts)

  • freedom to be a freak, to be weird, to be cringe

  • freedom to create and consume whatever in fandom

  • freedom to enjoy dark fucked up themes

but also

  • cute stuff

  • creepy stuff

  • art and history of art

  • the craft of writing and storytelling

  • non-violent videogames, walking simulators
