I wasn’t planning on using this account again, but I don’t like how I left things. It’s unlikely I’ll be reentering the fandom so this will be my last post. I’d deleted all my social media apps in January, so I’m only just now seeing the incredibly kind DMs from people checking in. Thank you ❤️ 1/5

I’m not okay, but I will be. Thank you to everyone who reached out in comments and via DMs. I’m getting the help I need to deal with everything that’s happened. >

My voice is gone from crying, I can’t stop shaking. I’m truly in such a bad place right now. Why would I invite this back into my life, why would I ruin my own mental health like this when I know how badly it would play out if I did what I’ve been accused of. >

I’ll be seeking legal advice tomorrow. This has reached the point of defamation and my mental health is so bad that I’m genuinely scared right now.

To accuse me of manipulating you into s*icide when you know my sister's dad k*lled himself and my family deals with that trauma every day. To say I would EVER push you to k**l yourself is just so horrifying, disgusting, & against my entire character.

I truly can't deal with this anymore. I'm done.

I want to say this as soon as possible -- I cannot even begin to explain to all of you how deeply, deeply disgusted I am that Mira would lie about this. August absolutely DID NOT share this information with me. There is zero proof of this.
I’ve been offline for several days and have just been sent a link of a post by Mira accusing me of outing her as a sex worker during that time. I DID NOT OUT HER. I did not share that information with the person she anonymously told it to. I would NEVER publicly out someone for sex work. >

I’m on an unplanned train journey across England after my bus was cancelled, so for WIP Wednesday I want to share a WIP I’ve been tinkering with since the last time I took this train.

The bus I was meant to take from the airport to my sister’s was cancelled because of snow. This was the snow.

I fucking love Stardew Valley mods. They can answer any question you’ve ever had about the game, like what happens if you fuck one of the monsters from the mines.

I need to rant about work for a minute because I’m feeling so overwhelmed.

I had to do some paperwork today for my business and as much as I love working for myself, seeing how much work I did last year for almost no money was a kick in the teeth. >

I get why people shy away from unfollowing problematic fandom folk, it can bring ire to your door, but man, seeing so many mutuals continue to interact and support certain fans who have done immense harm feels not great.

Proof that Our Flag Means Death is a great piece of media is the fact I’ve been writing about it since 2022, which is like 30 years in ADHD time.

Ed’s thighs are getting tired as he bounces in Stede’s lap and he starts to slow down, but then Stede moans beneath him.

I get around 2-3 ao3 comments a month since I took a writing break, and it’s always the loveliest surprise when they hit my inbox.

If anyone ever feels it’s been too long since a fic was published to comment, it’s not. They’re always welcome and it’s so nice to know the stories are still enjoyed ❤️

I had a job that was so stressful I disassociated for two weeks straight. I genuinely thought I was living in my own hellish version of the movie Being John Malkovich, BUT it did lead to me starting my business the same year so it wasn’t all bad 🤩
what was 23 like for yall ?

The only thing worse than an expensive product not working is an expensive product working so well that you have to keep buying it.

Every night, before I go to bed, I carry my dog out to the garden and we look up at the stars together for a few minutes. It’s my favourite part of the day.
