Before you Follow+Let's Be Friends

Before You Follow

  • I have OCs whose designs and stories either visually resemble or are canonically set during real world historical events. I don't mean to upset anyone with them. Please privately lmk if you have a concern so we can come up with a solution. I'm more than willing to listen and maybe learn a thing or two more about history, it's what I love to do as a history nut!

  • I recognize that a few of my interests could possibly be seen as "problematic", though I consume/engage with them critically. Similarly, just because I enjoy something, that does not mean I am an active participant in the fanbase or surrounding community, if at all. i largely keep to myself for a reason.

  • above point especially on the music I listen to. I don't condone the actions/words of every single artist I listen to. I try not to financially support any artist who has done anything harmful and similarly try not to place anyone on a pedestal. please tell me if there's more I could do in regards to a particular artist though.

  • I am not here to make enemies, only friends and if it comes to it, amends. If I do something wrong, please tell me privately. We can work it out to make things right. Peace and love my friend ✌️❤️


Let's Be Friends/Please Interact If:

  • You wanna hear me talk about WWI! It's my fav topic in history!

  • You like the Beatles or wanna start listening to them!

  • You collect anything, esp. things I also collect! Let's talk about our collections!

  • You just share an interest of mine in general lol, but keep in mind I have varying intensities of interest in different things and may not be as actively involved with some of my interests compared to others.

  • You want to explore Wikipedia and maybe learn smth new :)

  • You like my art, feel free to hype me up! Also feel free to draw my OCs in gift art, even with yours if you'd like :o
