this site is actually so mean literally all the time so im posting this here to let you know you’re not ‘too sensitive’ or something for not wanting to deal with attacks on your gender/body/intelligence for daring to exist and have fun online. the freaks that act like this are NOT the norm (they are just the loud and obnoxious minority) and it’s OK to take your time in recognizing this. <3

I have a blocklist of 35 people and this site has gotten way more positive and nice. It’s sad that it’s come to blocking so many people though.

All it takes is one arsehole in a nice thread to start insulting people and the whole thread often crumbles into a negative shitshow.

Your instance has a good head start on me by blocking ML. A third of my blocklist is from said instance 😂.
