Today raising your voice matters but what’s really key is having your own space to say whatever you want and gather like-minded people. Check my bio I’m building my own journey and planning something new to share my thoughts.

Well, I’m watching 90 Day Fiancé. There’s a guy from Turkey dating an American woman. Zero chemistry. She’s openly flirting with another guy from his town, but the Turkish guy is the one using her to deal with his debt and even admits it. Kind of weird.

I just published a new piece on why platforms feel like small islands now, and how that changes visibility, community, and power online. If you’ve been feeling this shift too, you might want to read it.

Every platform is an islet
We are living through a time when censorship is at its peak, when expressing your own opinion is difficult, and when you do, your voice gets muted.

In the country I live in, not long ago a fellow influencer I’d been following who was just starting to gain visibility said they were being canceled simply because they thought they were being fair. Today’s political climate doesn’t encourage fairness, it demands taking a side.

I don’t know why, but I was thinking about how my life would have been affected if I looked a little more attractive than before. I wonder what made me think this way, maybe it’s the competitive gay men thing or some kind of atmosphere like that. Have you ever thought about something like that?

All my life, I was told that I always had to strive for something, so I can’t enjoy the things I have effortlessly.

You’ve reached the end of your relationship with the person you love, and you fall silent, just standing there. That silence is the most unsettling thing, because the separation isn’t about you, it’s about the circumstances. 😔 💔

I’ve never liked TikTok from the very beginning, so I never used it and never even had an account. I have a few reasons for that. For example, shadow banning is way too easy there, especially if you’re overweight, disabled, or gay.

Anyone here thinking about joining this platform called Upscroll? I did a bit of digging and it looks like people are migrating there in groups, just like they did with Bluesky.
