 holy crap. my dreamwidth inbox is well over 100. what is this, a tumblr ask blog? 🤣

I've just taken a week off work but I didn't get as much juice out of it as I'd hoped to. Ah well. At least I had a week away. I'll have to figure out the recharging part some other time. 

how are you all doing? I've been thinking more thinky thoughts about social media, so expect a ramble about tiktok and filters at some point. And possibly some form of dystopic novella to go with it.

I've been lucky enough to only see that stuff via the comment blog. I never had to deal with the purity BS on my personal/fandom blog - probably because most of the people I followed were in their 30s or older. But also it feels like things have gotten particularly bad in the last 2-ish years, and I haven't been personal blogging much in that span of time.

I've only ever had the one blog and didn't unfollow people when I switched to non-fandom stuff, so it still appeared on my dash via people refuting it. (If I see someone I follow spouting that nonsense, I'll unfollow, but that hasn't happened.) Yeah, it does seem to have gotten worse in the fairly recent past. Possibly the pandemic and everything else going on made it worse via people trying to control things in a time when they have no control… and without realizing this is yet another thing they can't control.
