I know it's been over two years since I last posted here, but I'm going to keep holding on to this blog since it's becoming increasingly hostile out there on popular social media sites in terms of antis and fanpol and all those other wonderful things. Honestly, aside from AO3, DW is the best and safest place for fandom to thrive. I just wish more people would realize that and get their butts over here so we can establish a real fandom community once more. But it's hard to go back once you've had a taste of one-click posting, WYSWYG formatting, and onsite image hosting. The latter I think is the biggest hurdle to jump. I had hopes of importing content from my tumblr, but it's just... way way too much burden to put on my personal hosting server. And me.

Which is a shame because I've been making a lot of really awesome "problematic content" in the last few months. (I'm back on my bullshit, as they say.) It's times like these when I really really miss the old days (pre Twitter and Tumblr). You know. When you could post two cartoon characters nailing each other without getting crucified. Seems like the world was just a little bit friendlier to adult content creators back then.

If I sound old, it's because I am. 😪

Welcome back! I go through the Latest Things page every day and am heartened to say there's a lot of fannish content, especially for asian dramas and gaming. I'd like to see more animanga content but it's not too bad. :) I also see new people coming in and some old ones coming back.
