Hiatus time. Rant time. Don’t know when I’m coming back, but I’ll check back once in a while for messages. The blog may not be active anymore but the mun absolutely will be.
tl;dr is at the bottom.
I might honestly just put my blog on indefinite hiatus. I just got guilted and blocked by someone that wanted a different interaction from me that I didn’t feel like giving, and frankly it’s probably the final straw that broke this camel’s back.
The entire time I’ve been on Tumblr it’s been growing progressively less and less incentivizing to stay and it’s made me very unhappy. It is incredibly cliquey, icons are getting smaller and smaller and squinting hurts my eyes, roleplay posts are getting formatted to the point where it looks like one of those “serial killer letters made of clippings of word-art from magazines barely held together by a stick of glue” and it overwhelms me, blogs are harder to navigate which hinders my need to read and study your guidelines, people are making other people fill out application forms to write with them which creates distance between muns that shouldn’t be there, people are still Highlandering (bullying same-muse blogs by pushing superiority), people are actually giving each other a hard time or guilting each other because they have a preference for canons or original characters or cartoons or live-action, there is no personality or open communication here-- And I mean absolutely no communication, I’ve met THREE autistic people over the past month that see social boundaries blurry whom are all incredibly anxious from writing here because nobody wants to respect their disabilities. Some people here are actually wondering why this roleplaying community isn’t as active as it was 5 years ago. 👈 This. This is why. Literally insert the person-putting-a-stick-in-their-bike-wheel meme here.
This website made me cry too many times and I was in a very bad place emotionally since I started writing late 2012, and it is not getting better here. I gave this site a second chance because I’ve grown up a lot over the past few years and I’ve discovered myself, and I still wanted to create some dope stories with some dope people. I’ve had therapy, still need more, and a lot of my trust issues stem directly from simply being here, and it’s because of this lack of communication and understanding that so few people want to give to each other. Which is ridiculous considering how a lot of people here are more than happy to tag moving pictures and mun selfies with trigger warnings, why can’t we have that same kind of sensitivity towards communication and culture a warm, welcoming, and healthy roleplay environment for everyone? Including autistic people like me? (Seriously, the way the majority of this community handles interacting with autistic people really breaks my heart.)
Why can’t there exist a single place where people can roleplay and not have a laughable or harmful community? Is that even possible?? It seems so easy to do, but so few people will put in the legwork to make it happen. And I’m extremely grateful to know some of these exceptional people. (Seriously, when I’m financially stable, I’m buying you a game on Steam for being so great to me.)
tl;dr - I’m switchin’ to Discord for roleplay, it’s way better, shoot me a DM if you have some dope ideas you wanna write with me and we’ll exchange contact info! Check out the Tupperbox bot too and consider inviting it into your private roleplay server between you and your buddy/buddies, you can post under another muse with it ezpz and you can register these in literally 20 seconds.
