hello and welcome! we're GHOZTSHXRKZ (pronounced as ghost sharks) aka chimaera, and we're a multi-disabled plural digital artist and aspiring solo game dev/animator!
this carrd is extremely unfinished, please bear with us and let us know if there are any glaring issues!!
for the record, we swap between referring to ourselves with i/me and we/us a lot. any form of "i" or "me" on this page or any of our other pages is meant to refer to our collective self, not any specific system member.

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 our contact page, but if you're going to interact with me, please use tone indicators (doesn't need to be slash tone tags - emotes and the like count as tone indicators too!) and 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
we think DNIs are pretty ineffective, so instead we have a list of things we won't tolerate.WE WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ON OUR PAGES OR ANYWHERE NEAR US:- racism, colorism, xenomisia, etc- antisemitism, islamomisia, antitheism
-misogyny, sexism, intersexism, cissexism, bioessentialism
- queermisia, any kind of anti-lgbtqia+ ideology, and any subtypes (transmisia, bimisia, terfs/swerfs, exclusionists, transmeds, anti-neopronouns, anti-mogai, lesbian separatists/blerfs(aka anti-mspec lesbians and/or lesboys), REGs, or any other exclusionary group i'm missing here)-ableists/saneists (including towards cluster b personality disorders and more). we 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 misinfo 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.
(we don't technically id as an anti cause people LOOOOVE to conflate the term with harrassers and media purists. we believe there's some nuance to things and we don't support harrassment. 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!!-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 NOT welcome and i will not tolerate any of your bullcrap.~(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 just "irrational fears" ) have said it's rather harmful to conflate hateful ideologies with an anxiety disorder, so we're trying to cut that out of our 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 (honestly just block me if you actively consume HP content at all. it's rife with bigotry and the creator is extremely vile (and she has said that she considers any support for the series to be support of her views). please just let this horrible series fade into the obscurity please please please)- Hazbin Hotel / Helluva Boss / anything by vivziepop- Genshin Impact / anything miHoYo- Dream SMP
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. with that in mind, please try to be patient if we 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 /gfinally, i am someone who needs tone indicators, please try to use use some form of tone indicator 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, for example!). 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 us for something, we are best reached on discord! we are fairly responsive on our main toyhouse at times, but if it's urgent, discord is honestly your best bet!
