Hey all, I'm gonna be pulling the hard breaks on my social media presence. The 2nd image will have the explanation for it, if you're curious, but the gist of it is: - I'm gonna stop participating in social media (Bsky & Mastodon). - If you need to find me, I'll be on Discord, Twitch and the Critter Time forums. - This is until further notice. The only reason I might come back is if something major happens in my life to warrant it. - I'm not deleting my accounts. The links to all of these are gonna be in the post this image is part of.

First off, I'm gonna say that I have met some lovely people and also the love of my life thanks to social media. Some of my best friends came from interacting on Twitter, Bsky or Mastodon. I am also aware I'm denying myself new friendships and people by bailing, but I'm too tired, dawg. The other day, I realized a mutual had unfollowed me and I wondered what the hell I did? I've been trying to be more myself online and more genuine, so was it me being me? This isn't the first time it has happened, as some people I had on my *stream* have blocked me and talked shit about me on socials. Well, turns out, I was following someone problematic and I had no idea about it because I was not online enough to know (btw, the person did suck and I did unfollow them after realizing it). But this made me realize, what the fuck am I even doing? I'm stressing out over people no longer wishing to interact with me because one of 999 people I follow is a shit and I didn't know about it? I'm getting purity-tested online and stressing over it, like some fucking idiot.

This isn't the actual reason I'm bailing, it's like the 1000th of a thousand cuts. I am tired of corporations setting up an environment for me and my friends, using said environment, and then it gets enshittified, or bought out, or a random change in policy fucks everything up for all of us. I am tired of how social media has enabled the rise of fascism globally, endagering me and my loved ones almost daily. I am tired of people being, frankly, dumb as fuck and needing every joke explained, lacking any sort of reading comprehension or media literacy, while acting like experts on various subjects, or just being culture war grifters. I genuinely think the world would be better off if social media and social algorithms of all kinds were just outlawed. For all the good it has done, it's done tenfold in harm. Am I denying myself meeting new excellent people? Yes. Am I denying myself seeing cool people make cool creative things? Yes. Am I denying myself my own growth as a creative by sharing my work, gaming or art, with more people? Yes. Do I care? Yes. And that's why I'm bailing.

👋I'm gonna pull the breaks on social media. More info in images. See ya.

Good luck this week, everyone.

Happy international woman's day!

digital drawing of the user and her fiance, spencer, who is handing her a deck box. spencer: OK you’re new to Magic The Gathering. We gotta get you a new deck. The deck box reads: Group Hug! Miss Bunny Foo Foo. The deck box depicts a beautiful rabbit woman with a lovely floral hat and big smile. maddi: If you guys are pranking me it’s not funny. spencer: NO! She’s actually really good! stranger poking his head out from the side of the panel: she is. she’s really good.

I have since learned that Ms. Bumbleflower is a beast

Happy International Women's Day to all the International Women in the World.

idk I’ve seen a bajillion kids movies where the kids parents die & let me tell you, having a convo with my kid about how anyone can die at any time & it doesn’t matter if they’re someone’s mom or dad is way harder than having a convo about how sometimes someone has two dads or whatever. And yet

🐲💭: Heavens, how I wish everything weren't on fire.

Hello, new followers!

If you grow up your entire life having other people work for you, then of course you're going to see other people's labor as valueless. AI bros and the rich look at other people's labor with pure indifference like it's a natural phenomena

NetEase has been pulling funding from a ton overseas studios it invested in and it's been a massacre.

And the people who use the services of these jobs also don't value shit. Everything is there to be consumed or profited from. It's disgusting.

The crux, from my POV, with all the AI shit is that nobody actually values work. Nobody values the effort, skill and time it took to be good at a job. Nobody values that something is made by a person. And when that isn't valued, of course you'll go for the cheapest option.

One of the arguments in the article was "the same way lamplighters were made redundant with electricity and door knockers were made redundant with alarm clocks" and I'm thinking a lot about how nobody really knows what the fuck they're talking about. Lamplighter isn't a craft, it isn't a career.

I saw an article in my news feed going on about how one of the big AI companies made a list of jobs that would be made redundant due to AI, and it's basically anything that doesn't require actual physical work (like cooking, serving, etc). Arts and Crafts was listed as the thing AI will also do.

She looks over her plump shoulder with a smirk at the viewer as she munches on fried potato wedges and fruit, as her table is stacked with empty plates & leftover bones and a huge stein of ale.

Do you miss forums? Are you sick of how fast social media goes? Are you some flavor of furry or queer?

Well, you should join the Critter Time forums then: crittertime.fun/index.php

No algorithms, no metrics, no engagement farming. If you wanna post, you post. If you wanna lurk, you lurk.
