hi there,
if you've been following this blog for a long time (or just remember the person who ran it in general), you probably remember how right-wing this blog used to be (and I use "right-wing" here as a polite way of saying "actual garbage human politics"). this is one of my biggest regrets in life. I did a lot of harm, and that's not okay- it never was. I'm not going to offer up excuses, because honestly they don't mean anything and they don't make the fact I was awful okay. all I have to say is this:
if I ever sent you a mean ask, left some shitty unasked for commentary on your post, or was just being a shit-head in your direction: I'm sorry, genuinely. I've spent a lot of time thinking about it (and, honestly, realizing everybody else was, on average, correct), and wishing I could take it all back. All I was doing was making myself and (more importantly) everybody around me miserable under the guise of "being right", completely oblivious to the fact I was merely aiding and perpetuating a decades-long cycle of racism, sexism, transphobia, and just overall garbage.
I kind of doubt anyone is going to see this (perhaps for the best), but if you're, by some anti-miracle, still following this blog and believe even half of the shit I used to post: turn back now. think genuinely about your actions and discuss what went wrong. nothing you're posting is correct or backed by science - not anthropology, not psychology, nothing. I beg you to listen to the people around you instead of the system that keeps them under the thumb of awful things. you're aiding and abetting the machine that keeps bleeding people to death in the name of hate or because you can't see outside of your own experiences and it gets real fuckin old.
anyways that's all I have to say, really. I apologise, again, even though that can never really be enough. if you were harmed by me please reach out to me and we can try to make things right on a more individual level. for now, I take my leave. goodnight, everyone.
