Howdy, sopping wet fish here! 🎣
To be honest I never fully grokked (the word from stranger in a strange land, NOT the generative AI slop model) how to write intro posts so I'm kind of just rambling. I think that's also still allowed lol
I'm INKO, I'm back on tumblr after realizing that i enjoy my interests and talking/writing/drawing about them and that the normies simply lack the knowledge necessary to engage (aka understanding the height of hamiltion fanfic drama + being harassed off the platform for being a black tumblr user lmaooooo)
Although it's unlikely to become the focus of this blog, I will sometimes write my thoughts out about black theology, Ifá, ethnomusicology, black classical music (known as "Jazz" to those uninitiated...), general politics, radio, Black dyke culture, Black Conciousness, etc. I study Afro-Diasporic music and kenestetic linguistics, happy to answer asks about my field of study and Black Artistic movements generally. For those curious - my research focus is Afro-Diasporic traditions in regards to Organology aka the study of instruments. I play a few intruments myself, although my chops are fucked from going all in on the reading and writing aspects of ethno. My other research focus is urban soundscapes and Black Radio, I was a radio personality before becomming really ill recently and having to give it up... I may bring that #back on this blog!
If it wasn't already obvious... I am indeed a Black person, white folks please don't use my ask box to engage in white guilt-ridden babbling - if you see a post talking about Blackness, it's not for or about you. Thanks!
Some bonus info about me:
I'm disabled! (hEDS, PCOS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrom, Insomnia mystery symptoms still being investigated + brain tumor [I will be okay!!!])
I'm autistic! which you could've figured out by reading the above blurb! (Fun fact: I am actually diagnosed in the "low functioning" category because I was too autistic when I was involuntary admitted to the psych ward. love that for me!)
I'm from the south! which you could've and probably did figure out from me specifiying that I am Black and Creole
I love cooking and will sometimes become chef pilled on main

Alright well I'm dehydrated from writing this intro post and I don't want to talk about how many typos are probably in it (lmao neurological damage via brain tumor is a bitch!)
I'll mostly be reblogging things I find interesting and posting some of my art and writing! Come say hello and get straight up wet! (via water of course)
