BEFORE YOU FOLLOW
- i tend to use a lot of tone indicators. please don't bother me about it. i'm not condescending you, i'm just autistic and have social anxiety and bad experiences with people horribly misinterpreting my tone/words so for my own sake, i need to use them.- this is also stated in my boundaries on the contact page, but if you're going to interact with me, please use tone indicators (doesn't need to be slash tone tags like "/s" - emotes and the like count as tone indicators too!) also be direct with me!! i cannot pick up your tone over text, and i cannot read in between the lines of your words to get whatever you're trying to say.- please also do not extrapolate separate meaning from my words where there is none. please just take my words at face value. i am autistic, i do not assign subtext to my words and i'd appreciate if you didn't when communicating with either because i will not pick up on it at all lmao
THINGS WE DO NOT TOLERATE
i think DNIs are pretty ineffective, so instead this is a list of things i don't tolerate.I WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ON MY PAGES OR ANYWHERE NEAR ME OR MY HEADMATES:- racism, colorism, xenomisia, etc- antisemitism, islamomisia, antitheism- misogyny, sexism, intersexism, cissexism, bioessentialism, exorsexism- queermisia, any kind of anti-lgbtqia+ ideology, and any subtypes (transmisia, bimisia, terfs/swerfs, exclusionists, transmeds, anti-neopronouns, anti-mogai, lesbian separatists (aka anti-mspec lesbians and/or lesboys), REGs, or any other exclusionary group i'm missing here)- ableists/saneists (including towards people with personality disorders, psychosis, POCD, and more). i don't tolerate anybody who uses ableist/saneist slurs for others, mocks or reality checks those with delusional attachments or any other kind of delusion, believes in and perpetuates harmful stigmatization such as "narcissistic/bpd/cluster b abuse," intentionally triggers others, misuses mental health terminology (eg: "i'm so ocd," "i let the intrusive thoughts win," etc.) and more.- sysmedicalism, anti-non-traumagenic plurality, anti-non-disordered-plurality, etc. if you believe in any way that only traumagenic disordered plurals/systems exist or are valid, get out! medical literature says you're wrong! (not that it would need to for non-traumagenic/non-disordered/etc systems to be valid, but still) and anti-endo rhetoric is based on misinformation and has roots in racism, antitheism, and general cultural insensitivity so i want nothing to do with it.- proshippers/"anti-antis"/"complex-shippers"/consang supporters, anything related.
(i don't id as an anti cause these terms are generally pretty vague & meaningless & antis get conflated with harrassers and media purists and i am neither. there's nuance to these things.but 99% of proship stances absolutely disgust me so, begone.)- "MAPs"/pedophiles, zoophiles, necrophiles, etc of any kind, and their apologists. frankly anyone who thinks CSEM is acceptable or okay in any form, including drawn and of fictional charaters, is beyond unwelcome. that is vile and i hate you- fashwave, fascists, conservatives, Nazis, Zionists, genocide deniers or supporters, anything of the sort. you are absolutely vile and will be blocked immediately.- anything else i missed in standard dni criteria https://standarddni.carrd.co/#- if you support or are neutral to ANY of the above you are also NOT welcome. centrists begone~(note: i use "misic/misia" instead of "phobic/phobia" because many people who have phobias (aka the actual debilitating anxiety disorder kind of phobias, not simply "irrational fears" or bigotry) have asked people to stop using "-phobia" to refer to bigotry. i'm also a staunch believer that it's inherently harmful to conflate hateful ideologies with mental disorders. so i'm trying to cut that out of my language.)
Fandom/media icks
This is NOT a "DNI if you like these" list, or intended to shame anyone.I believe you can enjoy things while also being critical of less-than-stellar elements within, and without supporting or condoning anything harmful/problematic about the media or creator/s in question. I have my own loved media with problematic elements or creators, which I don't condone but still enjoy the media.
Nuance is a thing.But like. don't bring these up with me. to talk about these positively, I really don't wanna hear about it.
(preferably block me if you like these/their creators uncritically AND aren't willing to listen to why they're harmful/look at them a bit more critically. ofc if you just aren't aware of any issues that's fair)~- Harry Potter (dni/instant block if you actively consume HP content at all. it's rife with nearly every form of bigotry (HW Legacy is literally filled to the brim with anti-Jewish garbage) and the creator is an extremely vile person who uses the money the series generates to actively oppress trans people in the UK (and she has said that she considers any support for the series to be support of her views, INCLUDING keeping the fandom alive). please just let this horrible series fade into the obscurity please please please please please- Hazbin Hotel / Helluva Boss / anything by vivziepop- Genshin Impact / anything miHoYo- Dream SMP- Pizza Tower
Boundaries/Info
please be aware that i have social anxiety and am a multi-disabled and neurodivergent AuDHD spoonie with limited spoons for interacting. all of which makes it very difficult to get back to people, sometimes including good friends. i'm also a host of a plural system, and while i'm usually in front, i can't promise that will always be the case. with that in mind, please try to be patient if i take a bit to reply - we promise we are not intentionally ignoring you!(a friendly ping here and there is totally fine if you wanna be sure i got your message or if i take a long time to reply, all i’m asking is that you don't directly pressure/guilt me into replying faster! i’m trying my best /genuine)finally, as stated in my BYF, i am someone who typically needs tone indicators. please try to use some form of tone indication when talking with me (this doesn't have to be slash tone tags like '/j' if they don't work for you, there are other types - emotes and emojis are also common tone indicators! alternately, you can type out the full tone word instead of the shorthand tag!). also, I use many tone tags myself for multiple reasons, to the point that it may seem like i'm overusing them to some. I do this for my own comfort, not to condescend or coddle anyone. this is not going to change, do not bother me about this /srs).(ps, if you're going to message me, please don't just dm me with just "hello" !!! please say why you're messaging me or something. /srs)
Contact/Links
this is most of the sites where i can be found!
to be fair, i am pretty inactive everywhere other than toyhouse, and am not even consistently active there, either.if trying to contact me for something, i am best reached on discord! i'm fairly responsive on my main toyhouse at times, but if it's urgent, discord is honestly your best bet!!
