I am on meow.social currently. I consolidated my art/social accounts and migrated because I didn't really jam with the attitude of the instance I was on and this one seemed more chill.

I *have* been prodded a couple times about CWs, but frankly nothing ridiculous, and *there is an edit button*.

earses @howlitzer.art · 18d

I am staying on this site until such a time it becomes unusable.

Having said that, I will also be posting and boosting a bit of advice about Mastodon because backup options aren't a bad thing.

If y'all yell at me again for this I'm gonna bonk you with a stick. I am just looking to help.

addendum: I don’t want people to *only* ever reach out when I’m negposting in hopes I’ll feel better, because that’s… not really how I want to live tbh.

just wishing others would be a bit more proactive in having me involved in their lives, that’s all.

I’d just like to feel like I’m more than just some décor that wheels itself out to marginally enrich other people’s lives for a few minutes before resigning and returning to the closet again.

trae @traes.art · 6d

doesn’t mean I don’t want to do things with others, but it just seems everyone’s developed the general consensus that I “don’t want anything to do with anyone else because reasons”.

is it really depression or paranoia if I can see myself being subject to the same pattern time after time?

trae @traes.art · 6d

like, I get it, I’m not some rich and affluent artist, I’m barely making ends meet and have little self-worth as is, so I can’t really afford to keep up with the flavour of the week to maintain some kind of “relevancy” within friend circles.

[vent, probably deleting later.]

I honestly feel like a second-class citizen some days.

people tell me they like having me around and all, but it’s pretty clear I’m nobody’s “first choice” for hanging out with, and feel I always have to be chasing after everyone else, just to be dismissed anyway.
