a note, that i never thought i’d have to make: this blog is, and always will be, distinctly unfriendly towards weirdos with blogs dedicated to serial killers and other awful people, and if you are one, you can catch a SWIFT FUCKING BLOCK. i personally recommend you seek therapy, or perhaps consider dedicating your attention to someone who isn’t absolute scum.
