warnings (here there be dragons)
+ i am a proshipper & fujoshi (and write as much smut and dead dove content as i do fluff), if any of that is morally reprehensible to you, then for your peace of mind please do not interact with me
+ i have zero tolerance for bullies and trolls
+ i have been in fandom for 20+ years and can be very critical (and jaded) of it
+ i have strong opinions you may find controversial
+ i generally do not like dubs (all yugioh dubs are non-starters for me), but i do if the voice acting is actually good
+ i do not care if you hate my favs and ships, but that does not give you an excuse to spread toxic discourse. other people (including your friends) see that toxicity and are hurt by it

stances
+ i mute & block bigots
+ unapologetically leftist and queer
+ free afghanistan, free palestine, free ukraine, muslims =/= terrorists, there is more than enough room for migrants
+ everyone deserves healthcare regardless of their immigration status
+ women have the right to choose
+ asexuals are not 'broken' and do not owe you their bodies
+ transgender rights are human rights
+ all firearms should be illegal, "tacticool" is cringe
+ AI 'writing' tools are just as bad as AI 'art' tools; this includes AI boyfriend/girlfriend bots
+ be cautiously optimist with a healthy dose of pessimistic skepticism. trust but verify. you are not immune to propaganda
