are a stray kids content creator

*downs a shot of whiskey*

basically it doesn’t feel like i have 1000 followers. it feels like i have 50

i do not want ANYBODY telling me in my inbox “oh congratulations on this huge milestone!! you deserve each and every one of them!” because that’s just a load of bullshit here’s why:

my interactions on this app are so low to the point where i’m basically irrelevant on stayblr now. i don’t know if this is because i haven’t been active this year, or because i’m back in school, or because the majority of us are back in school, or because some big blog has sabotaged me and told all of their followers to stop reading my content (which is actually very realistic)! but MAN these 1000 followers do not add up to the amount of feeback i’ve been getting

and so if you haven’t read the countless posts about writers begging for feedback and comments, i’ll let you in on a little secret: writers are fueled by those two things. the more you throw at them, the more content you’ll receive from them! however, since my interactions in general are very low at the moment, i do not feel like i should be wasting my time writing stuff that i feel like barely anybody will read.

i’m at the point where it all feels very pointless! why rack my brain into doing stuff nobody will see? why ditch sleep and healthy work habits if it’ll all go to waste at the very end?

that halloween interactive au i was very excited to show you guys during this october? i stopped working on it over a month ago because nobody seemed interested! you guys probably don’t even know what i’m talking about because nobody gives a shit about this blog before! it’s genuinely hilarious!!

but then again, who’s the real one to blame here? me! i failed at creating an engaged audience for my writing and that’s that. i’ll fully come to terms with that. but it’ll be much harder to do that now considering i’m in school again.

am i going to quit this blog? no, actually. because it’s good writing practice and what not. but now i’m just not gonna give a shit about writing “what the people want”. because in the end, only less than 50 people will care about what i post.

if you followed me for any of these reasons i’m about to mention, unfollow me right now:

ship requests

stayblr fanfiction survey

incorrect quotes

one specific ot8 reaction post because the aesthetic was nice

any other sort of shitpost that got mediocre attention

i just wanna see the follower count PLUMMET and hysterically laugh because yall don’t care for what this blog is really about, and genuinely, thank you for unfollowing!

anyways, no special event this milestone for obvious reasons
