[new pinned post! contains all the miscellaneous information that new followers or old friends might want to know. under a readmore cause it's pretty long. not required reading, but it'd be cool if ya did!]
art blog // flight rising // i don't know what else to put here lol
about me:
if we've just met, then hello hello! i'm spore! i use they/them and whatever gendered terms are funniest. you might see friends refer to me as zoe or with she/her; this isn't incorrect, but i prefer spore and gender-neutral language from online strangers.
23 in 2026 [22/8]. white australian. queer. [not super pressed about finding a more specific label, but i'm definitely asexual.] autism adhd wombo combo, chronically fatigued, and i'm sure there's plenty else going on.
i'm bobot
i like making art, playing [usually older] video games, and going insane over works of fiction that aren't even that good. my interests shift around a lot, but some of the mainstays are sonic the hedgehog, programming weirdness in old computers/video games, fish and reptiles [turtles/tortoises especially] and the proper care of them in captivity, and exoplanetary astronomy!
a bit about the blog:
my web's site where i keep stuff i like :]
favourite reblogs are under #i need a favourites tag, most original posts that i consider worth saving are under #just fucking whatever, and pictures of my lovely turtle tempo are under #temposting. otherwise i generally use tags to ramble in circles to myself or go apeshit over art i like, as god intended
triggering content is tagged with the format #tw <trigger>. i try to get all the 'big' ones as well as flashing gifs or eyestrain, but don't tag less common ones unless it's for someone i know personally.
i've been here since i was 13 so my blog does bear the scars of teenage dipshittery. if you run into a shit take and it's more than a few years old, chances are that i also think it's shit and am very embarrassed about it lmao. [you're welcome to ask and make sure, though!]
as of this post, my icon is astro man from mega man 8/& bass, and my blog header is the background of press garden zone act 2 from sonic mania!
boundaries:
no structured dni, i just block anyone who strikes me as unpleasant or actively antagonises me/my friends. with that said, very very broadly speaking, if you think that any marginalised identity is a threat to you or that sexualising even fictional children is cool and fun, i do not fuck with you and i want you to feel unsafe and unwanted here <3
i don't mind teens/minors interacting with me, as long as you practice common sense around talking to an adult you don't know on the internet lol. nsfw blogs are tentatively okay to interact, but please don't add anything explicitly sexual to my posts!
sending asks and messages is okie-dokie! i won't respond to all of them, because i don't always have the energy, but i'm always okay with friendly interaction. even if we haven't spoken before! i love human connection!!
