It was nice when social media only showed you posts from your actual friends/mutuals and not 500x more sponsored or suggested ones instead… trying to keep up with real people through the distance is a lot harder now

We lost Bruno yesterday to a horrific, weeklong pancreatitis flare-up, a condition we didn’t know he had. He passed after a rollercoaster few days in the hospital where he went into respiratory distress from IV fluids built up around the lungs. I am in such despair &we feel the emptiness. RIP bubba💔

Was on a trip in May and may have forgotten to reactivate my Twitter in time to avoid account loss after 30 day deactivation. 😅 Apologies for being MIA, hope everyone is well!

I get frustrated with the idea that creative pursuits like writing and art are generally considered “passions” and not “jobs”, cuz that’s how the world sets them up to be underfunded & underappreciated, and still act like they’re doing creators a favor by paying for it.
We are tradespeople. Period.

I know I'm naive but my brain gets stuck on all the venture capital freaks and billionaires buying up media outlets and then kerploding them the moment they decide the numbers won't go up fast enough, like they totally skip a step of "try to sell a product" as if that's not even part of the equation

slowly losing the amount of social media accounts I have left where I don’t have to face the horror of knowing I’m friends or mutuals with people who exist in an entirely different or void ethical sphere that appalls me. every deactivation feels so heavy

On break from most socials at the moment (fyi if you’ve seen me disappear). I need a break, but am also not really interested in seeing posts about anything that ignores the reality & suffering being lived through in this moment. Platforms feel really strange right now.
