Blocking Policy & Digital Safety – FAQ

A clarification of how we maintain safety and peace on Written Musings.

Welcome to our Blocking Policy FAQ. This page exists to clarify how and why we manage our space here on Written Musings. As a median system—run by 🌒, 🌿🦴, 🖤🕷, 🔥⚔, and 🐶☕—this is more than a content hub. It is a living, breathing sanctuary. We have spent decades navigating the fallout of real-world trauma, and we have built this corner of the internet to be restorative, creatively fulfilling, and neurologically accessible.

Blocking is not an act of aggression; it is an act of curation. It is how we ensure that our sanctuary remains a place of introspection and strength. We are not a public utility. We are a home. If you are here in good faith, we are glad to have you. If you are here to audit, police, or project, you will be removed.

Hello all! I'm Shadika or Shadi, your friendly neighbourhood Wet Cat Man enthusiast. I'm cool with she or they pronouns, and also bro, dude, and similar sorts of things. Girl plus some Interesting Feelings, at this point. Officially ADHD. 36 years old. Aotearoa New Zealand, timezone UTC+12 or UTC+13 depending on time of year. Full-time hospital admin.

I realise there is no sane way to actually require readers to be 18+, but it's definitely the best idea.

I am 100% pro-fiction, anti-censorship.

I am 100% in favour of all good-faith identities. I'm me, you're you, those are facts, and I don't have to understand it to be cool.

I probably did not read your Carrd / Strawpage / whatever they invent next. If anything here makes you uncomfortable, set the boundary and unfollow or block me.

I don't necessarily tag general adult content. I do always tag kink posts, both as such and with the particular kink.

While this is a very multi-fandom and also a general-interest blog, I'm currently back on a Marvel kick, so I feel like it bears mentioning - there absolutely is Hydra Trash Party content here.

Omorashi (this is the really big one) Piss stuff in general Age gap (older man/younger man, older woman/younger man) Power differential (teacher/student, master/apprentice and similar) Size difference Humiliation Edging, orgasm denial Premature ejaculation, coming in pants Hair-pulling, beautiful long hair in general, red hair Bondage Spanking Guns Military uniforms Leather, latex Frilly fancy clothes Frottage Massage

The more of these you can manage to bring together, the happier I am, basically!

Project Hail Mary Strattland, CarlGrace; I do have some Really Intense Feelings about the whole Grocky dynamic / situation but they're platonic / Secret Third Thing to me personally!

Thunderbolts WinterSentry, WinterAgent, SentryAgent, but honestly I'm here for the whole team, Val, Mel, and whoever you want to drag out from the depths of history; hit me with it I'll probably bite. Founder and CEO of Ava/Mel, for reasons I may or may not ever manage to really articulate; watch this space.

I do not use generative AI in my own work. I do not consent to my work being scraped for / added to / uploaded to / used by any form of AI.

Always happy to talk about the hotness of celebrities, fictional characters, and ships, and what we would like to see them do. I am single. I am not interested in having any kind of personal sexual interaction with anyone online, however.

You appear to be a bot and not a person.

You send me unsolicited sexual content.

You're shilling any sort of crypto, NFT, MLM, stock trading, or other get-rich-quick scheme or job scam.

The first or only interaction I have with you involves you asking for donations, offering commissions, or asking me to share a petition or crowdfunder or similar.

I gave one specific a person a boundary of not commenting on my posts, because I don't want that individual to be a participant in this discussion or this part of my life.

That person violated my boundary and is now blocked.

But I will admit that I'm not sure what my comments policy is going to be moving forward.

I would like to continue and deepen this discussion, and in the past negative (and sometimes even hateful) feedback has proven to be some of the most insightful.

So I absolutely don't want to block people just because they're making negative comments.

But also, my boundaries still matter.

I'm not asking people to support me, and I'm actually not even necessarily asking them to be nice to me.

But I do have a line.

I answered basically the same question a few minutes ago.

That person violated my boundary, and as a result they are now blocked.

There is one person I blocked. I previously gave this person a boundary of not commenting on my posts, because I don't want that person to be a part of this discussion or this part of my life.

If you doubt me, leave a negative comment.

I can't promise I'll let it stand, but I do promise I'll think about what you say, and that I won't automatically delete it.

Wanted to set a clear boundary regarding why and when I block people. This will be added to my pinned post.

Philosophy on blocking: The internet is a curated space. It is not a direct reflection of the real world and should not operate as such. Blocking will occur if and when you make the internet less fun for myself and the people who follow me.

Ultimately, the internet should be a valuable tool, a source of enjoyment, and a place to foster connection. I deserve to have an enjoyable experience on the internet. You do too.

Things I will block people for:

-Being intentionally mean or engaging with me in bad faith.

-Being intentionally disrespectful of people, their cultures, or traditions.

-Having a bad or obnoxious take.

-Citing your education, or other similar personal achievement instead of actually engaging with an argument.

-Any overt doomerism, whinging, or fear mongering.

-Overt joy or pleasure resulting from someone's death. No it doesn't matter who.

-Bandwagon targeted mockery of any person.

-Any suppositions about my personhood, my identity, my family or my loved ones.

-And any so-far unspecified act under the broad umbrella of "being an asshole"

Building a space for yourself on the internet that is additive and enjoyable isn't easy. Doing so without creating an echo box feeding your own ideas back to you is even harder.

I love when people disagree with me. I love when people bring new and different ideas to the table. I love diversity and collaboration.

I will not tolerate bullshit that improves nothing.

Final note: On the above list I have specified no particular type of person, no group organization or background. I exclude no one on these grounds.

Thanks for reading.

I don’t like blocking people, i want everyone to be able to see what i create regardless of their character, this sounds like an awful practice, but i’m not the type of person to block someone because people tell me to or to judge books by their cover. That’s why i don’t block bots who like me or follow me.

I exclusively block people who have an intensely violent and/or incredibly foul behavior towards me or have done something extremely fucked and/or immoral that i know for a fact they did and did recently.

I know a lot of you guys got your finger over the block button, but to me it’s more like a fire alarm that i only pull when the person feels actively dangerous or IS actively dangerous. So if i blocked you, then you SERIOUSLY need to reevaluate yourself as a person.

However: blocking for me is not a permanent thing ether, if it’s obvious that you have changed as a person for the better and regret the actions you’ve done, then i’ll happily unblock you! No harm, no foul.

I block for the following reasons:

You are a sales or porn blog.

Drama happened and I am embarrassed or angry about the Drama.

You said or did something offensive. (Also: I said or did something offensive and you didn’t accept the apology in good faith.)

You are engaged in Tumblr’s “purity culture” and are trying to start shit with me.

I may or may not unblock you once tempers have cooled.

I unfollow for the following reasons:

I forgot who you were and why I followed you because you changed your name.

We have nothing in common!

Drama happened!

You have not updated in forever.

You reblogged “anti-shipper” rhetoric and it was not to correct or disagree with the “anti-shipper.”

I may or may not refollow depending on the circumstances

It is perfectly okay to unfollow or block me for the same reasons! t
