So @star-anise as an account A Lot to deal with these days. I have a lot of old text posts on contentious topics (feminism, queerness, bisexuality, mental health etc) and a routine part of my week is seeing really hateful people popping up in my notes. I block them when I can, but itβs a perpetual game of whack-a-mole. I donβt want to delete my blog, though, or make my posts hard to access at their usual URLs, or completely lose touch with it.
Therefore: Iβm going to do a lot of my blogging for now out of @beyondthisdarkhouseΒ (or my fannish sideblog for The Untamed/The Old Guard/Murderbot/Zen Cho, @with-my-murder-flute). My askbox is going to stay closed for a bit and Iβm going to be slower and more thoughtful about what I post here.
I never did and never will provide therapy via Tumblr, but if youβre looking for support, Iβd suggest findingΒ a local mental health or crisis lineΒ if you need to talk or if you want to know where to access affordable counselling near you, or tryingΒ Scarleteen for questions about sexuality and gender.
