So, probably around 300 people are wondering who the fuck I am and why I just followed them. Iām peri/eg/esis/voidās alt account (breaking it up so it canāt be searched; I donāt want to be harassed by people who dislike me there). Iāve decided to take a step back from using Tumblr as my main space of social interaction and activism and instead focus on promoting my writing, as a social media arm of my AO3 account.
I have had that account since I was 18. In many ways, the persona Iāve built up there no longer entirely reflects the person I am now. Honestly, that mostly means I want to talk about sex more than I feel comfortable doing so in that space. In the last year, Iāve decided to get more comfortable with that part of myself, but between being under constant, uh, political scrutiny and being followed by younger teens who came for the politics, I donāt feel like I can really do that on that account. I also want to support fellow content creators, but the pressure to keep things PG-13 often limits my ability to do that.
Tumblr does not allow us to make a main blog into a sideblog or vice versa, so here I am. It will take me a while to get up to 2500 followers again, but I think I can do it. And I will post all the butts I want.
Yep, thatās me. Iāll keep this blog up, and fic links will be reblogged here, but @sanguinifex will be my new main blog. (Note that it is 18+.) Please follow me there!
In truth, Iāve been considering doing this for a few years now. I wanted a more focused blog, that was organized from the beginning. A blog where I didnāt have to be as performative. The pressure finally got to be enough. (Yes, I was making posts here earlier today. Yes, I was still planning this.)
I honestly donāt know how long tumblr as a site will last. However, as long as it does, Iād rather reflect myself accurately. All of me, including the bits I repressed for years because I was embarrassed. And Iād rather not have arguments on my primary blog. (All my sideblogs are the same; I just added my new account as an admin to all of them.) And I want to focus on my creative work.
I hope you guys donāt mind.
Itās ok to reblog this btw
